    [Game] Kings @ Miami Heat, 1/31/2024, 4:30p PT/7:30p ET

    There are basically three things you need to know about this game: Players not named Keegan Murray shot 5/29 (17%) from 3pt line Our bench scored 18 pts, Heat bench scored 47 pts If we don't count HB's charity points at the end, we scored only 18 pts in the fourth quarter I really hope Sasha...

    Who Should Start at PF?

    Looking at the standings right now, I really doubt that there will be a team in the West that will "play for nothing" till the very end of the season :) Regardless if HB gets traded or not, I can see both Sasha and Lyles as rotational players this season, their minutes being based on their...

    Why Isn't Sasha Playing?

    I really liked the line-up at the start of the 2nd quarter of the game against Phoenix: Fox-Monk-Sasha-Lyles/Barnes-Len/Domas. Lyles at the 4 worked well defensively, Monk and Fox cutting through the defense to exploit Sasha's cuts and spacing, Len or Domas to dominate the center. It seems that...

    Why Isn't Sasha Playing?

    It's funny how most people are perceiving Vezenkov as a "rookie" or "unproven". The guy was Euroleague's MVP and in the last decade European basketball is slowly closing the gap to the NBA in terms of intensity, pace and skills required. If I remember correctly Germany beat the USA in the World...

    Sacramento Kings @ Charlotte Hornets, 1/10/2024, 4p PST/7p EST

    I am calling it now - Kings to win by 15 points. - Monk with 25+ pts and 5+ assists - Len with 3+ blocks - Kings to shoot >45% 3P - JTA to commit less than 4 fouls - PJ Washington to be the top scorer for Hornets See ya after the game to check if my crystal ball was right

    Why Isn't Sasha Playing?

    That's definitely not the way to approach any calculation regarding playing time. Vezenkov can play both as SF and PF and can take Hueter's minutes at the 3 spot and play together with Lyles/HB and Domas/Len at the same time. He can be both part of a small as well as a big rotation 5, depending...

    Why Isn't Sasha Playing?

    Why oh why does Mike Brown keep Sasha Vezenkov on the bench?! Obviously the team is struggling offensively, Rozier cannot be stopped by anyone and arguably the best shooter in your team is getting DNP-ed? Same thing with Kessler Edwards, who I am sure will be 100× more effective than HB on both...

    [Game] Sacramento Kings vs. Minnesota Timberwolves, 12/23/2023, 7:00PM PST 10:00PM EST

    MB was questioning his defensive skills since his very first day as a King. The guy then starts grabbing some rebounds, providing a couple of steals and blocks (remember the IST game against the Warriors) but still gets less minutes than JaVale Mcgee aka Tragic Brunson or ice cold...

    Sasha signed!!!

    Well, I guess his role now is "jack up a three within the first 10 seconds of being subbed in". If it goes in, he might get 10-15 minutes playing time, if not - benched until garbage time comes. No more backdoor cuts, pick n' roll or DHOs. Extremely underutilized in my opinion and he is...

    Does anyone else have the feeling that Duarte is just running around on O without any idea or clear purpose in life? xD

    [Game] Phoenix Suns @ Sacramento Kings, 12/22/2023, 7:00pm PST/10:00pm EST

    I wonder when we are going to see Vezenkov in the main rotation with 20+ minutes. It's really a shame that the Euroleague's MVP is is getting mostly some scrappy minutes at the end of the fourth when the Kings are winning/losing by 20 pts... Give the man a chance already, he is much more than...
