Sign me up. I’ve always been a fan. I think the kid not only fits basketball wise, but personality wise, too.

Yeah, I was quite surprised to see the KINGS as betting favorites. I do recall LAL being favored during the final matchup with the KINGS, despite being 0-3, so it’s not unprecedented.

Not so far this season, but they beat the Pels 2-1 last season with both teams fielding similar lineups. So there’s no reason the tide can’t change again. Besides, how fitting would it be to beat a team that beat you 5x? It’s precisely the type of thing that would happen to the KINGS if the...

As I mentioned above, “effort”. It mostly wasn’t there defensively in at least 4 of the 5 matchups. Mixed with “lazy” offense, we all saw the results. If the KINGS play with the same effort, energy, hustle and defensive intensity they showed against the Warriors on Tuesday night, their odds...

Probably so, but more importantly IMO is the KINGS taking the game seriously and playing hard on both ends from opening tip the final buzzer. Except for perhaps the last matchup late in the season, the KINGS body language, energy and effort looked to me like a team that didn’t care much. Like...

The KINGS beat this same Pels roster 2-1 last season. And historically De’Aaron Fox has owned the Pels. Even averaged over 40 one season. So I believe this season has been an anomaly and that WE take this one when it actually counts most. Further, the 1st two games played between these teams...

AND Domas is much healthier than at this same time last season. I said it back then and you could see a clear difference tonight. That said, I thought Domas played a C+, B- level game. He can play much better than tonight. If he manages a B+ performance or higher against NOP on Friday, I like...

@pdxKingsFan knows I’ll be giving him a hard time! Lol.

Of course he is. Some people just don’t understand what they’re watching, if they’re really watching at all.

Nice to see this franchise developing players and coaches alike. It’s what the g-league is supposed to be all about. Props to Coach Harding for taking advantage of the opportunity.

Provide evidence to support what you say. Because it’s a lot of unsubstantiated nonsense. I mean, I can play that same game by suggesting the same exact thing about SGA, #77, Embiid, Tatum, Lillard, Ja, or any other player that hasn’t ever won jack. I can even make a cogent argument about KD...

It difficult to have a productive debate with those that invent their own facts or “m.o.’s”. He simply can’t present any worthwhile evidence in support of his “opinion”. Which is why he hasn’t.

I just wish this team had better IQ (or perhaps their head coach) once they shot themselves into a huge lead like they did tonight. Instead of shooting themselves out of the lead by settling for more threes, why not change things up and focus on getting to the basket a bit more? Or at least...

He’s another version of the Bearded Hag. Except he plays far, far superior defense and doesn’t travel quite as much. #77 is another that’s tough to watch for the same reasons. Phenomenal talent, everyone agrees. But boy does he often run into traffic completely out of control flailing all his...

So does Steph Curry, then. Cause even he never got calls like this either. The only players on par are Giannis and #77. Giannis at least makes sense.

Awful loss, yes. But what are your reasons for concern wrt Domas? He had a subpar game. But after a long, long streak of double-doubles and 26 triple doubles this season — isn’t the guy allowed the occasional poor performance? On the whole, he’s one of the main reasons the KINGS have 45 wins a...

I’ve said it many times before and I’ll say it again like a broken record. When the KINGS lose it almost always comes down to poor 3 point shooting and free throw disparity. Sometimes both. Turnovers aren’t typically an issue, nor is defense despite popular opinion. 34.5% tonight. On a...

It seems we have some “blind” mice wandering the site. It ain’t just the officials at the games. Lol.

Complete nonsense. A more apt example would be certain members of this board putting in more effort with their contributions than others. :rolleyes: SGA is a phenomenal player, but the amount of FTA’s he gets bailed out with in comparison to Fox, who attacks and gets hit/hacked as much as...

If anyone wants to point to an example of a game that looked "orchestrated", look no further than this game. As the game was playing out, I told my wife -- if this were the KINGS the Rockets were playing against, he'd hit both free throws. But not only did Smith (I believe it was him) miss both...
