[Game] 17/82: Kings vs. Nets 24 NOV 2024, 6pm PT/9pm ET

Amazingly weak foul.

 

[iowamcnabb]

A ha, that's it. The answer is Tim Duncan. The Kings need a Tim Duncan, lol. With a C like Domas proof was moving your defense INTO the other team worked. At least better than this.

in theory we should be selling out on the three and making teams match our super efficient mid range paint guys (Fox Sabonis Deebo)

 

[SacTownKid]

I also don't think it's fair to put it on Brown for Keegan and Huerter for laying bricks all season.

I do put it on Brown for allowing this same stupid 3pt defense and keepign that person in charge of the scheme

And since those shots aren't falling and the confidence is shook, it's hard to put what the team is actually into focus. So far, it's looking like anyone would have thought, just in ways unexpected. You traded out a much better 3 point shooter for a worse one. Being a better 3 point shooting team overall shouldn't have been the expectation. However, you picked up another player capable of carrying the load. Brown has a totally different team adding DDR and now we see what kind of coach he is when it comes to x's and o's. His career is what it is when it comes to that.

What is Colby going flying at? Simple side step, leaves a wide open 3

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

Well, is it on Monte if we're NOT playing the all-defensive team candidate 30 MPG? And he obviously got more help with Carter being an expected defensive dynamo.

Brown definitely take a good share of the blane for the early struggles. I was shocked that he decided to go with Huerter over Keon. It went completely against everything he apparently stands for as a coach. That’s just one of many questionable decisions he’s made this year. Lol

 

[The_Jamal]

SHOOT THE FLOATER TREY

 

[Kingz19]

Shoot that Trey

I don't even think the problem is scheme at this point. All Brooklyn is doing is running Cam Thomas off Nic Claxton and Noah Clowney screens. Some of this is just guys on the Nets hitting tough shots but also we don't have a defensive presence in the paint so everyone is forced to cheat a step toward the middle to try and help. It's a roster problem from what I can see.

 

[The_Jamal]

Keegan hits that, but can't hit the open C&S 3. Make it make sense!

Beautiful shot though

 

[iowamcnabb]

I wonder if Domas doesn’t trust the back. He is still getting boards but he is getting pushed around a bit on box outs

 

[Sluggah]

Wasn’t thinking, just doing maybe.

an honestly if he can give us this offense we just have to live with the 3 point shooting. Just can’t have the hesitation

I'd rather see Keegan go 1-10, but it's 10 shots that he "should" be taking. The hesitation is the real killer long-term.

 

[The_Jamal]

ayeeee nice cut Keegs for an easy dunk

 

[The_Jamal]

Keegs with an awesome 3 minute stretch here.

 

[hrdboild]

Nets bench is out-scoring the Kings bench 35-9 (and that 9 is all from Ellis). We need Monk and Carter back badly. And probably some kind of trade.

 

[Sluggah]

Gritty

 

[The_Jamal]

KEON. defensive ball-hawk

 

[hrdboild]

I love Keon Ellis. Dude just makes smart plays.

 

[SLAB]

An engaged KM on offense is so huge for this team.

And START ELLIS.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Of course

 

[Sluggah]

Of course

 

[KF8]

Case of butter fingers. Keegan u gotta get such an easy rebound.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Of course

you owe me a coke

 

[The_Jamal]

Alex Len fell asleep. Awesome

 

[hrdboild]

Unbelievable. It's just uncanny how often this teams give away points at the end of quarters.

 

[coolhandluke]

That shot he took is an open shot even if it looks clumsy. He needs to pick his spots on the floor and get some reps in to make that automatic.

Well, at this point, it's probably going to take Huerter being somewhere else to get Brown to start Ellis, so... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[The_Jamal]

I'm not super familiar with Clowney, but isn't he a spacer big? Why not keep Keegan in on him to defend the perimeter?

A good coach would tell them not to leave the line open, to help towards middle.
