[Game] 18/82: Kings vs. Thunder 25 NOV 2024, 7pm PT/10pm ET

[coolhandluke]

Good patience on offense today against the top defensive team.

Thunder have to win the 3PT battle by a good margin to win the game. Keep protecting the three.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

This is a nice quick turnaround for a team that did not look good last night

 

[MizzouKing]

It’s a game nobody thinks the Kings can win, based on a whole lot of underperforming as of late. Kings history tells us that this is exactly the time to bet on Purple.

 

[Tizzy Flip]

Feels like coach took the board’s advice to start Keon and not overly help on D… and, surprise, it’s working

 

[dude12]

2-5 without Monk…not sure if we win tonight but not having him is a big thing

 

[The_Jamal]

Hartenstein throws up junk, it goes in.

Why does it feel like that happens way too often against us?

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Wait, hitting a guy in the head is a foul?

We're usually right

I don't spend a lot of time posting the game day threads, but man, I wandered in here to say the exact same thing. It just feels like whatever net the Kings defend is just a magnet for opposing player's junkiest shots to fall into. Super frustrating.

Monk is the flux capacitor for this team. Without him, we may look like a sports car, but we’re just a crapty DeLorean.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

good ball movement

 

[The_Jamal]

Flawless rotations from Brown tonight. This is the blueprint.

 

[coolhandluke]

Not a foul, if the guy getting hit is Sabonis.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Keon helped into the lane there and it cost a 3. don't drift into the lane to help

 

[The_Jamal]

Keon gets lost helping down, Kenrich wide open

 

[Sam0ah]

Why does the defense always have to collapse leaving 3pt shots open at will??

 

[gunks]

Flawless rotations from Brown tonight. This is the blueprint.

Benefit of the doubt says he knows the offense was amazing when Huerter was good, so he's been chasing that high.

Now that he's accepted the reality that Kevin is totally broken on offense, we can move forward into the age of Keon.

 

[megapoxy]

Lyles won't return (calf) so we should see Isaac getting more minutes.

appears to be a bad habit from a scheme they were taught. need to rid their minds of it somehow

 

[Sam0ah]

Hate to see Lyles out, but that forces Browns hand to play depth isn't a bad thing.

 

[gunks]

Deebo took HB winning WC player of the week personally hahah

 

[HndsmCelt]

Lyles won't return (calf) so we should see Isaac getting more minutes.

Let’s hope my man from Fresno State can hold his own tonight

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Wow, I hope SGA isn't hurt there

 

[coolhandluke]

Ball don't lie

 

[The_Jamal]

Keon is playing incredible as a connector offensively. Making the right read over and over.

 

[LPKingsFan]

It happens so often that it must be scheme or at least not called out sufficiently.

They need some sort of anti-DPOG where the player who leaves his man open for the most threes has to wear the cone of shame or something…

 

[The_Jamal]

Keegan clamps SGA.

Domas should have drawn a foul, no call

 

[coolhandluke]

Fox blew that play after the steal

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Domas should have drawn a foul, no call

He wasn't pushed out of bounds, there was a random gravity well there

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I mean, they're letting one side "play" a little more than the other...
