[Game] 37/82 Kings vs. Heat 06 JAN 2025, 7pm PT/10pm ET

[BosnianDiehard2.0]

Super lazy defense by some guys out there. Need much quicker rotations and need to fight around screens harder.

 

[iowamcnabb]

We lead the league in broken play threes against

 

[BosnianDiehard2.0]

We’re lucky Miami is ice cold

Ummm, they’re 4/10 from 3 and we’re 2/11 lol.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

How is Miami 17-16 in the East and 12th in team DRtg? They're absolutely smothering us every single possession.

 

[SacTownKid]

How is Devin Carter way less shy about shooting the ball than Keegan is right now?

Part of it is Carter can catch and make plays off the dribble. That's not Keegans strong suit. Keegan is getting good shots, they have to fall at some point. Right now he's playing D and he's keeping plays alive.

They got shellacked last game at home by Utah, might be extra motivation for them tonight.

The Butler did it.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

"Good outlet by Domas" is picked off

 

[BosnianDiehard2.0]

Sabonis killing us with those bad full court passes.

 

[Sluggah]

It’s games and teams like this that demonstrate why having a Fox matters.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Sabonis killing us with those bad full court passes.

0 for 2 so far

 

[BosnianDiehard2.0]

They’re finally calling some fouls on our drives. Let’s hope that continues lol.

 

[Joshyjosh31]

Sabonis turnovers are getting out of hand

 

[BosnianDiehard2.0]

Soooo we’re back to clanking open threes, huh?

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Keon doing Keon things

 

[Capt. Factorial]

So would we call that a Euro-stop?

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Ellis with the Slo-Mo™?

 

[coolhandluke]

Keon with the best finish on transition.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Gonna have to grind out a close win

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

That Kyle Anderson™.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Keon with the best finish on transition.

He uses that reverse side well

 

[Elektrik]

I’m starting to see that Keegan Murray is just going to be nothing more than a solid defender that can hit the open 3

kings look tired after playing last night

 

[coolhandluke]

Defense keeping us in this game.

 

[chief bromden]

Sabonis turnovers are getting out of hand

He's only averaging 2.3/game in the last two weeks. Totally acceptable for as much as he has the ball

 

[Bfreeman]

Hoping to get a little more from DDR in the 2nd half ugly game but, winnable.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Sabonis is just cleaning the glass again

 

[Capt. Factorial]

I'm not really putting it on us. I think Miami is playing admirable, if annoying, defense.

 

[BosnianDiehard2.0]

You can hear everytime Monk thinks he’s been fouled.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Soooo we’re back to clanking open threes, huh?

Gonna have to grind out a close win

If nothing else, the Kings no longer look like a team that is DOA if they're not hitting threes.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Looks like Christie has Monk and DeRozan competing more on defense
