This hustle is refreshing - nice job Christie

 

[Tetsujin]

Zach-Domas two man game looking way better than last year

 

[MizzouKing]

I'm not hating Drew Eubanks... he gives it his all and doesn't mind being a Mack truck when the opportunity presents.

 

[kingdivac]

A good assist sighting from LaVine

 

[kingdivac]

Dumb George

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

So, I guess this is going to be the season of four-point plays, huh?

 

[HndsmCelt]

Denis spending the first half showing us exactly what he can and can’t do

 

[kingdivac]

Bad foul Derozen

 

[kingdivac]

Just go for the full block!!

 

[Kingz19]

No Kayte, we don’t love that contest anymore than we loved LaVines contest at the end of the Suns game

 

[The_Jamal]

I didn't see any of the UTA-LAC game, but how the hell did they blow them out by 30? This team sucks

 

[HndsmCelt]

Kings have to rebound better

 

[Sluggah]

Ain’t mad at the scrappiness.

While the Kings are old, the Clippers are all ancient and were playing at altitude. Also Sensabaugh randomly dropped a 20 burger.

So far Domas is having a hard time fitting in with the Kings. That first game of the season kind of changed over to that mid range guard game based around Schroder, Monk, LaVine, and DeRozan. Ironically the Jazz are running an offense perfectly suited for Domas yet they are running it through players with very little of those skills.

 

[MizzouKing]

Overall a solid first half. The Jazz look more winded than the Kings. I'd love to see the young guys get some play in the third to run their freakin wheels off. If we can keep up the pace, quarter four might be fun.

If he shoots 24 times a game then the numbers will be there haha.

 

[Sluggah]

What. Is this. This dude got too much encouragement from his parents growing up.

 

[Caccia]

If it were not for a couple of blown plays, especially on the fast break, this would have been a decent lead.

The bench did a fine job in the first half, apart from Eubanks missing all three shots. It looks like they are using Keon to play small forward in this matchup.

We were wondering the same thing!

Early season thoughts (without any commentary on roster construction or general vision of our front office).

1. Defensive effort is definitely better
2. I do not mind one bit having schruder on this club. Always liked him as a player in general, good energy, and I feel like his defensive impact is probably about the same as Fox (ie. he is pesty and looks like he’s probably a better defender than he really is.)
3. Offensive gameplan looks awkward for Domas.
4. Monk’s shot looks solid to start the year. 5. Zach is really playing a much more rounded game than when he joined last year. Decisive on the offensive end and giving enough effort on defense to not be a negative there.
6. Keon is definitely a top 5 player on this club.
7. Pretty amazing to see Debo still playing at this level…but I would rather watch this club without him.

 

[SacTownKid]

Now to see which team starts draining 3's. It'll come down to that like always.

 

[Tetsujin]

As someone who’s had lots of experience working with people in the field, that guy was the best acrobat/juggler they could get for the halftime show?

Yeah, pretty much just like the Kings to surround Domas with a buncha guys that don't really maximize his skill set.

That standing reach though

 

[TheMobb]

Is Schroder really a better PG than Monk? Maybe he’s still getting used to the offense and his teammates, but his decision making and passing have been off these first 2 games.

 

[coolhandluke]

Quarters since fouling a three point shooter: 0

29 FGA for DDR/LaVine/Dennis

4 for Domas

Not great

How about a rule change where you have to stay vertical on your three point shot? If you lunge forward it’s not a foul if you land on a defender
