[Game] 63/82: Kings @ Clippers, 09 MAR 2025, 6:30p PT/9:30p ET

[Krunker]

Nice putback dunk by DC!

 

[HndsmCelt]

Why couldn’t bogie bring that kind of defense when he played for us?

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Woah. Didn’t know Devin had that in him

Based on his combine, I'd been waiting on it. 40"+ vertical

 

[Tetsujin]

Random Devon Carter offensive explosion quarter.

 

[Kingz19]

Carter looking closer to what he looked like his first 2-3 games with the team

 

[Tetsujin]

Woah. Didn’t know Devin had that in him

Kid literally had the best athleticism metrics in the draft this year.

That put back by Carter is impressive

People always go by looks. Great athletes look like they're going half speed. Wilt was the same way. People are still convinced it was because of his era when dude was literally one of the most dynamic athletes to ever live, lol.

Hearing a thing and seeing a thing…quite different.

Yeah, a 40 in vert, a pretty good wingspan/standing reach, and aggressive. There will be many more.

 

[Tetsujin]

Friar

 

[Tetsujin]

Keegs just hit Batum with the Kawhi stepback

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

The Kings biggest recent fan is now sitting at the end of their bench.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Jake gotta foul harder than that.

…Jae Crowder?

 

[Tetsujin]

Deebo feeling it

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

…Jae Crowder?

Him and Big sequins gal

 

[SacTownKid]

The Kings having a bit of trouble with the zone.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Unacceptable play right now.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

I don't know what the deal is, but I don't like the vibe between Zach and Keon several possessions late in the quarter

 

[HndsmCelt]

Well, could be a lot worse, Kings need to figure that zone out and I think they’ll be all right in the second half

 

[luckytkp]

That was ugly. We challenged DJJ and Batum, probably the best 2 defenders on the clips

 

[Tetsujin]

The Kings having a bit of trouble with the zone.

This is where Domas and monk being out really shows itself. Our two biggest zone busters over the last three years.

 

[luckytkp]

I don't know what the deal is, but I don't like the vibe between Zach and Keon several possessions late in the quarter

Not sure why Keon decided to go alone when he could have passed it to Lavine

 

[SacTownKid]

This is what I like about this new coaching staff, they just run common sense stuff. They run a 1-4 flat to open the middle on that last play. It didn't score but we've seen DC attack zones more than just 1 way. Very encouraging.

 

[SacTownKid]

Not sure why Keon decided to go alone when he could have passed it to Lavine

Mainly because nobody knows where to move off ball against the sagging defense. They kind of left him out there on an island and him attacking off the dribble isn't really his specialty.

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

Felt like we were the better team in the half. Clean up transition defense and I think we get this one.

 

[Caccia]

The Clippers caught up and went ahead on several layups in a row. It's up the coaches to figure a way to slow down those points in the paint. That was with Valančiūnas on the floor.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Mainly because nobody knows where to move off ball against the sagging defense. They kind of left him out there on an island and him attacking off the dribble isn't really his specialty.

I mean, LaVine was calling for the ball and Keon just looked him off and went one-on-one instead. That's a bad play.
