Becoming common these days across the nation

First time I'd seen it.

At last an angry Fox moment after angry Green/Brooks before that.

 

[hrdboild]

Finally they called one!

 

[SacTownKid]

Now Domas is playing up, how is it hard to see the results? LOL. Brown is even trying to hide Domas on Thompson but they just set guard to guard screens. This is how Domas needs to guard pick and roll.

 

[fansinceday1]

Any idea what's all that noise in the stadium from the crowd that cameras not showing during the "review"?

Yeah, lady took the kiss cam to a whole new level.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

OMFG Kiss cam

Watching that thing makes me uncomfortable; what sort of cringeworthy nonsense did I miss this time?

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

 

[hrdboild]

The Rockets went and made Fox mad. Bad move.

 

[Caccia]

This is turning into a scramble fest. The Kings need to stay cool and focused.

Yeah. Like that.

 

[hrdboild]

Keegan!

 

[coolhandluke]

They're going at angry fox. Not a good idea.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Boy howdy, did the kid need that one!

Instead of a kiss, the lady was tired and pretended to put her head into the guys lap

 

[Tetsujin]

where’s the dude who got confused when we weren’t down with a Fox for a couple of protected picks and Jaesean Tate trade?

 

[megapoxy]

And the crowd is fired up, at last a nice finish to a quarter from our side!

Off topic, Amen's shirt is half outside his shorts all game long, do we need Chris Paul to point that out to the refs so he will get a tech?

 

[SacTownKid]

And there you have it folks. Kings press up on pick and roll and play tight man to man pressure on the ball and you have... DEFENSE? Smh.

 

[Sherds]

Great response and end to the half, hopefully season changing

 

[iowamcnabb]

Caved and listened to the first half while doing some work. A bit more relaxing.

I wish Brown played Jones more, he was playing great defensively

 

[Kingster]

It's good to see the Kings have some fight in them.

Have to pull that out when the refs start their usual screw job.

They did it at the end of Minny game with good results and then forgot about it.

For whatever reason, the Kings coaches think that it's either a benefit to have Domas drop on pick and roll, or that he needs it. In the last game at the end on switches, and this one at the start and towards the end of the 1st half with him coming up (not even hedging necessarily), Domas proved he can cover that ground and at least maintain some degree of defensive pressure. If the Rockets start getting behind it and throwing lobs or something, then adjust. Not before, haha. Besides, that corner help is supposed to be taking away that space and you rotate from there. I get that the Kings always get lost on their rotations but the problems are all predicated by that drop coverage. Dropping AND helping over on the corners makes about the same sense as switching into drop.

 

[Krunker]

I seem to recall the chair guy doing handstands on the chairs in his younger years, but he is still amazingly spry for 66 (I think?)

 

[iowamcnabb]

Spurs 8-43 from three tonight haha. Looks like we did ok in the first half on threes

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

They used them all up against y'all.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Apropos of nothing, I put Slap Ya Mama on almost everything.

 

[Tetsujin]

It’s Deebo time

 

[coolhandluke]

Good play calling for DeMar.

 

[megapoxy]

Keegan smiling and Kayte hasn't noticed yet...it's the end of the world

 

[Tetsujin]

Keegan must have remembered the Rockets passed on him
