[Game] 43/82: Kings vs. Warriors 22 JAN 2025, 7pm PT/10pm ET (ESPN)

[Caccia]

Reverse breakaway jam by Monk that bounced off his head before it made it all the way through the hoop.

Wow. I do not think I have ever witnessed one like that.

 

[fansinceday1]

Can waste minutes on huerter in the second half and can’t let Ellis rot on the bench. Need to make the obvious moves here Doug.

This is REALLY ANNOYING.

What does huerter give us out there? He should
be down in the G league.

 

[Tetsujin]

Kevin Huerter and Keon but with Snells in the first half. Alex Len inexplicably out only player with a positive plus minus despite both getting beat on defense every possession and fumbling the ball every single time he touched it on the other end.

Actually it went through the hoop, but didn't get through the net......which it has to in order to count

 

[TaxMan]

This feels like a false ultimatum. Those can't be the only two options.

No but the words rhyme. Are we contenders, pretenders or the 6th seed just doesn’t have the same ring to it.

Or Carter. Carter had some rusty rookie moments but his on ball defense, picking up full court was a difference maker for a stretch. He and Len got crisscrossed here and there. Have they even played together? If they have it can't be much. Len came out and switched which I can't at all see that as the plan with him. No way do you have Len switch almost any pick and roll.

Defense sucks for the 4th straight game. Keon playing only 8 minutes show his minutes under Doug was a function of injury.

the Fox, Monk, DeRozan combination appears not good defensively

Pisses me off how everyone knows this but we’re gonna lose games before anything gets done. And you’re right about Ellis minutes he was one of the very few play defense and disrupting GSW offense and barley plays

 

[coolhandluke]

Kerr outcoached Christie here. Came up with a good plan to limit the pick and roll and deny drives. Well prepared for the expected doubling of Steph and it's open three after open three for them. It was a predictable plan but we had no adjustments. Refs don't help us either.

When the team offense is not rolling, we should exploit our individual matchup advantages with DeRozan and Sabonis and make them adjust.

and this is no time to squeeze Carter in there either. Let Keon get back in rhythm

Carter has been better than Keon in their stints tonight.

 

[hrdboild]

Huerter reminds me of midshipman Hollom in Master and Commander.
Sure hope Monte finds away to unload him.

Gulp. Into Davey Jones locker y'mean?

You know, it's crazy that doesn't happen more when you look at it.

This is how you can screw up a team that is in rhythm. We'll see what Christie does here

 

[kingsboi]

what a pitiful 1st half performance. Kings sleepwalking.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

I'm starting to agree with some here that Keon minutes where just because of injuries. He's literally been treated the same way brown treated him before he was fired.

I dont understand this at all

Katie didn’t know the rule it had to clear the net. TNT was on it. Love Katie but she should have known it

 

[iowamcnabb]

Outscore them by 10 in the third

ESPN with the Jackson-Davis highlights.
Oh geez……

They can just give all Kevin minutes to Keon and we would be better off.

They're still desperate to trade Huerter and want to squeeze time in for their 1st round pick. Hopefully it doesn't cost anymore wins

They are two entirely different types of defenders. One defends with his body (Carter) the other with his hands (Keon). We'll have to see if Keon is a good matchup for the Dubs. They have big beefy guards that are rubbing him off screens and were getting him behind the play. Also he isn't able to body up as well in the full court, Keons defense is largely attacking the dribble.

TNT wasn’t on it because TNT is showing AEW tonight.

You know that situation when a thing is just too beautiful and you can't look directly at it? I'm pretty sure that's what happened here.

Really? I didn't know that rule. I mean, I'd never seen that situation come up before, so...

Carter fouled a 3 point shooter for the 3rd or 4th time. He needs to get under control out there.

That was Len.

So you'd go Carter at this point? Sit Keon down?
