Speaking of "lasgana" (i.e. lasagna)...What the heck ever happened to Vinny???

I would use my mod powers to edit the quote since you got in before I could correct my spelling, but editing your actual post feels like it crosses a line so my lack of typing dexterity will have to remain exposed. 'Lasgana" does roll off the tongue though, even if it's not an actual thing.

Can’t wait for the close out lineup at the end blow a lead because we are going to iso every possession and not play D

 

[kingdivac]

Matador defense sighting

 

[The_Jamal]

My god this "perimeter defense" is surely something. Just getting ran by every possession lol

 

[kingdivac]

More poor defense.....

 

[The_Jamal]

There we go Domas, nice

 

[kingdivac]

pathetic

 

[The_Jamal]

"Doug has talked about wanting to win the first 7 seconds of the shot clock"

What?

 

[SLAB]

This starting lineup is hilarious. I want the entire season to be made of this nightmare fuel.

 

[The_Jamal]

Maybe Perry's truly playing 5D chess and putting Russ out there for the stealth tank to trick Vivek. Right guys? Right...

 

[kingdivac]

Even Westbrook looks disinterested early........come out and mail it in to start - ya dweebs.

 

[SacTownKid]

The Kings are getting good looks but. bleh. so what.

 

[Turgenev]

Zach: gives up an easy backdoor cut to Giddey, turnover off a lazy pass to Sabonis, throws up a quick three after one pass. But don't worry, here are his highlights!

 

[SLAB]

The Kings … bleh. so what.

You could have eliminated the entire middle of that post and it could have applied to this disaster!

 

[The_Jamal]

Did we quit? Lmao

 

[SLAB]

Maybe Perry's truly playing 5D chess and putting Russ out there for the stealth tank to trick Vivek. Right guys? Right...

Perry’s number 1 priority with this current roster was signing Dennis Schroeder to a multiyear deal. That eliminates him being capable of 5D chess.

 

[kingdivac]

Time to watch the world series.

 

[Turgenev]

That top 10 defensive ranking isn't going to last this quarter.

 

[SLAB]

I do feel bad for Doug. I wish he’d have told the brass to shove it with the current roster. No-win situation even for a good coach. Doug remains an unknown, but this will be what he’s known as.

 

[dude12]

Train wreck

 

[HndsmCelt]

Seems like with an obvious interior problem here it wouldn’t be a bad idea to put Isaac Jones in the game for a little bit

 

[iowamcnabb]

Is there a cartoon version? I thought Grumpy Cat was a real cat.

Fair enough I didn’t read the title

Eh, he's pretty well known at this point. He's had every opportunity to play lineups with an actual chance of success and he just defers to the vets. Every game now has had just some baffling rotation and lineup decisions. Turning the keys over to Westbrook. List goes on and on.

He's a skilled talker, but I think we're seeing that's why he and Perry got the job.

 

[SacTownKid]

Bulls doing it right. They have vets but they look to be sliding in their young guys on top of it. Not just running the other way. They'll be so much better than a team like Sac in 2 years it will be sad.

 

[Caccia]

Among those players who appeared in all four games up to tonight, the leaders in defensive rating are Eubanks, Ellis, and Monk.

They are on the floor together right now.

 

[The_Jamal]

Monk is playing damn good to start the season. Has an argument as our best player thus far

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Now it appears that Keon and Carter are splitting the small amount of time that Keon was getting in the first 3 games?

 

[SacTownKid]

This unit played best last game too. DeMar really running things.

 

[SLAB]

Monk is playing damn good to start the season. Has an argument as our best player thus far

I want a starting lineup of

Schroeder, Monk, Lavine, Russ, DeRozan.

 

[SacTownKid]

Devin again being that exact connective passer the team needs.
