That TD shake and brick lol

 

[Tetsujin]

Len out here goalkeeping like he's prime Yao Ming.

 

[KainLear]

"Shimmy shimmy ya, shimmy yam, shimmy yay!" - TD

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Yo, you can't shimmy, and then miss the wide-open shot. Davis gotta get benched, for that.

 

[SacTownKid]

D.J. Augustin. Remember that name folks. Looks like a Monte target to me, lol.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

The shimmy was amazing…but enjoy shaqt’n

Oh, they gonna roast the **** outta him!

 

[KainLear]

That TD miss was almost to Swaggy P level.

"almost"

 

[Capt. Factorial]

FIVE GUARD LINEUP GUYS

Haha, I don't think he was even being cocky. I think he second guessed the open look in rhythm then tried to work himself back in with the shimmy.

 

[Tetsujin]

D.J. Augustin. Remember that name folks. Looks like a Monte target to me, lol.

If we move Buddy, Augustin honestly wouldn't be a bad bench guard option in a mad win-now dash.

 

[SacTownKid]

His middle name is win-now.

 

[Woot!]

Kings +18 over last two quarters.

 

[iowamcnabb]

I’m curious why DJ got 3 throws there. Certainly didn’t look like a natural shot

 

[Tetsujin]

His middle name is win-now.

The dude's like 40 years old at this point so he's certainly out of place on the Rockets.

 

[hrdboild]

That's why I said the minutes he did have available made it that much more important in the end. In the games he played it looked like they were executing his development like 7 year contracts were still a thing.

I saw a player who looked lost on the court his rookie season (not uncommon), wasn't healthy his second, and had lost his coach's trust by his third. The only real what ifs for me with Marvin are "what if he'd been healthy the last 3 years and was showing us this level of play by the end of his second year" and "what if we hadn't hired Luke Walton".

 

[Capt. Factorial]

"almost"

He is the forever unbeaten champion

 

[KainLear]

He is the forever unbeaten champion

If only TD would've shimmied, then misses his own brick by doing the Swaggy P celebration... maybe...

Double sigh. And Gentry played Queta 5 minutes in the first half too just to give me hope. He's a stone cold killer.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

He is the forever unbeaten champion

I mean, it wasn't a shot, per se, but Terrence Ross had an all-timer.

 

[EIM86]

I ain’t even mad at Future Davis for doing that shimmy. It was lit AF

 

[Capt. Factorial]

I mean, it wasn't a shot, per se, but Terrence Ross had an all-timer.

I'm blanking on that one. Help a mod out?

 

[hrdboild]

Has there even been a player more suited for the three point shootout than Buddy Hield? Even in games he looks like he's in a three point shoot out.

 

[Tetsujin]

Davion out here toying with Jalen Green on defense. Forced him into the baseline and into a waiting Bagley on the play before that

 

[KainLear]

* Stops the tape *
"See? This is why you need to put your hands up on Buddy's face all the time?!" - Coach Silas during tape session

 

[Tetsujin]

Rico taught Marvin the Richaun shot-put.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

#HonorableMention confirmed.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Mitchel is serious

 

[Woot!]

Wahoo! Tonight Bags actually IS a 20/10 man!

 

[Groovygreg]

Kings rolling.

 

[KainLear]

Mitchel is serious

"wrong pick"

HA!
