[Game] Kings @ OKC Thunder- 4/9/2024 - 5:00PM PDT/8:00PM EDT

I always thought this line never made sense on a miss.....but then again there are many things that guy says that don't make sense.

It's hilarious! I love it.

 

[Kingz19]

“Too much time” is something only a Kings player can have historically

 

[Tetsujin]

Chet drawing so many fouls because he’s weaker than everyone else on the floor is stupid

 

[Kingz19]

Frontcourt playing like complete ass

 

[hrdboild]

Dont think the kings will win if those 3 continue to struggle though.

Agreed. We've got to get something from Lyles, Len, and Vezenkov too. Not neccesarily all three of them but someone taller than 6-5 on the Kings needs to make a shot because OKC is too good from behind the arc to keep shooting 25% on threes in the second half.

 

[Tetsujin]

OKC probably not beefy enough to really make noise in the postseason quite yet.

 

[Kingster]

Finally, we get an inside basket from Barnes. Taking guarded 3s isn't going to cut it in this game.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Kings go small and immediately give up an offensive rebound and a layup: coincidence?

 

[Tetsujin]

You’re not a serious team if you’re letting Harrison Barnes plow through your team like Zion Williamson.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Well, at least Barnes is drawing fouls: he's certainly been less productive in games.

 

[Kingz19]

FINALLY!!

 

[Kingz19]

Now 2 for Keegan

 

[Tetsujin]

Probably shouldn’t leave Keegs open

 

[hrdboild]

Keegan finally pries the lid off the rim.

 

[Tetsujin]

HOLY **** KEON

 

[Kingz19]

Keon is good

 

[The_Jamal]

Keon really is such an absurd defender

 

[captain bill]

Love the bench mob energy

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Someone must have told Fox that Mark Daigneault didn't vote for him for All-Star.

 

[Tetsujin]

Domas was out for most of the game thus far with foul trouble and the Kings are still up by 19.

 

[gunks]

Great first half!

Which just terrifies me

 

[captain bill]

Wouldn't mind meeting OKC in the first round.

Really gotta hope we can avoid another 2nd half collapse...

 

[The Effort Police]

Goddamn Keon Ellis really is the perfect seamless backcourt fit we've been looking for.

 

[SacTownKid]

Yeah, good matchup. NBA gods let this happen in the playoffs.

 

[Tetsujin]

Someone must have told Fox that Mark Daigneault didn't vote for him for All-Star.

Someone showed him KB02’s old posts saying Lu Dort was a better player than him before the game.

 

[hrdboild]

Fox getting only 1 or 2 FTA a game continues to be ridiculous. None so far in this game.

Keon Ellis though, my goodness! Keeping shooting that ball young fella!

 

[Kingster]

The Kings prospered in the final five minutes by getting into the paint - Barnes, Fox, Mitchell - and then shooting or kicking. More please. If they don't fall in love with the 3 in the 2nd half they should be ok.

 

[Kingz19]

19 point lead

Domas scoreless

A simple balanced second half should ice this. Nothing spectacular needs to happen on the Kings part. Well, nothing spectacularly good I mean. There’s always spectacularly bad

 

[bball_nomad]

As was expected, Shai is sweating hard. Quad injury is no joke.

 

[OffTheWallJamal]

Keon! What a first half for him.

Quite a good half for the Kings.
