[Game] 49/82: Kings @ 76ers 29 JAN 2026, 4pm PT/7pm ET

Zach needs to follow his shot to the basket. He is so accurate, it often comes right back to where he was shooting if he misses.

Only the Kings can start an offensive possession with a DeMar iso, move the ball so efficiently that it eventually circles back to… another DeMar iso.

Definitely thought about Men at Work but gave my vote to Strangelove. I didn't know that the flute melody (which was not prominent in the original recording) was inspired by a nursery rhyme, and in 2008 an Australian quiz show linked the two. That lead to some IP vultures who had acquired the rights to the nursery tune in 1990 and apparently had no clue, suing the pants off of Men at Work. They were awarded minimal damages (they wanted 60% of the rights and all royalties going back nearly 20 years to when they acquired it) but it lead directly to the flute/sax player in the band's suicide.

Anyways, how we doing, can't be worse than that, right? I just clocked out.

He didn't even immediately go into an iso move, he got the ball and... just sort of stood there for a few seconds first.

Nique is not particularly distinguishing himself tonight. Maybe he will get the shot going.

It almost looked like VJ just walk up, shook Nique’s hand, who supposedly was running a solo fastbreak, and then casually dribbled off with the ball.

I can pay for my son's tuition by now if I collect $1 every time the Kings allow a wide open 3.

Why can't Zach up the ante?

The opportunity is there, the Sixers are kind of ignoring him defensively. Most of his offense this season is when teams just leave him figuring he's just eating minutes.

Do you think Carter will be traded at the deadline?

Shout out to Kyle Lowry! #KeepGettinThemChecks

 

[KainLear]

Did Cardwell just foul with a sliding tackle?

Did Cardwell just foul with a sliding tackle?

Sure did

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Terrible call. Wipe out all the refs and start over

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

He picks 'em up in bunches, don't he?

 

[KainLear]

Terrible call. Wipe out all the refs and start over

You gotta believe that the league wants it this way at this point.

 

[Sluggah]

wow

 

[KainLear]

Yeah despite all the effort and hustle, Cardwell is still so raw...

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

The league is corrupt. They've ruined the game in a lot of ways

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Papi: "Time to throw away all journalistic credibility and get RECKLESS! This is something we like to call RECKLESS SPECULATION!"

Roy: "You're good!"

Mr. Slim: Justin Van Duyne has got some action on Cardwell's foul over.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

No way. They called palming. Amazing

 

[Jdbraver137]

I would love to get McCain

 

[Tetsujin]

I would love to get McCain

Keon for McCain and maybe a second or two makes a lot of sense for both sides.

 

[Tetsujin]

Came against Boner and not Embiid but Max had a really good stretch there to end the quarter.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Nice pink shoes Drummond. Crawl back into your coffin
