    [Game] 28/82: Kings vs. Lakers 19 DEC 2024 7pm PT/10pm ET

    I think the Inside the NBA folks, putting on a TV show in between games and halves, might be more interested in ratings than about anybody else. They may not be as equipped as commentators to understand and explain the game as it currently is, so I'm not surprised they have antipathy for the 3...

    [NBA] Comments that don't warrant a thread (DEC)

    I do agree with this, I think the primary reason it took so long for the 3 to catch was that NBA coaches were afraid of being laughed out of the league for trying something unorthodox (pulling a Paul Westhead.) Now that coaching is more results focused, it should be faster to find optimal...

    Even if Adam Silver banned the 3 pointer for some weird reason, it probably wouldn't result in an immediate reversion to the golden age of big men.

    [NBA] Comments that don't warrant a thread (DEC)

    In 5 career seasons Zion has played less than 2 ½ seasons of games. Seems like a Greg Oden situation to me. I get that the Kings can't be complacent and assume we'll automatically be better next year; and that they have to demonstrate competitive credibility soon in order to convince Fox to...

    Where do people discuss the Kings

    There are advantages to having a smaller subset of fans in a community; there's a different dynamic when the number of people in an interest group could plausibly fit into a room together.
