[Game] 68/82: Kings vs. Cavaliers 19 MAR 2025, 7pm PT/10pm ET

So... this is what happens when you give your plus-defenders heavier minutes. Such a shame that either Monk or LaVine needs to be out in order for the rotation to be salvaged on defense.

It will be so interesting to see what moves the FO makes to maximize our young defensive guys.

 

[Kingz19]

Sigh

Terrible close to the quarter

 

[LoungeLizard]

What a meltdown the end of this quarter…sheesh

 

[Sluggah]

lol. arguing that. epic.

 

[fansinceday1]

10-0 run in just over 1 minute?

 

[QWERTYLICIOUS]

Winning this game would be the most Sacramento Kings thing to do.

 

[fansinceday1]

That young dude is killing the kings. Geez…..

 

[DynaPamm]

I believe, I believe. Believe

 

[Sherds]

10-0 run in just over 1 minute?

Work so hard to get up then in 2min, justgive it all away

 

[LoungeLizard]

Thank you Keegs. Lead going into 4th. Can this crew bring it home?

Wasn’t really the front office’s intention but this is probably the most coherent collection of younger guys the Kings have had since they paired RekeROY and Boogie.

 

[SacTownKid]

Good teams make those runs, just keep going. DeMar had open looks at the elbow in that zone.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Not the end we wanted, but I’ll take a two point lead at the end of the third call the quarter of success

 

[Tetsujin]

What a meltdown the end of this quarter…sheesh

And it was almost entirely just Evan Mobley running circles around Trey Lyles while our guys struggled to breakdown a basic zone defense.

 

[megapoxy]

So Zach is missing and Kings have their best shooting night from 3? Not making much sense... (15/30 so far)

Yeah, don’t know why we tend to struggle with that zone.

The Kings are pretty stacked with shooters anyway. Ellis has been an elite catch and shoot player this season.

I just hope they have an idea of what they want to do.

 

[Sluggah]

Great move

 

[QWERTYLICIOUS]

720 seconds until Beam Time; LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

 

[Kingz19]

Might help to have somebody within 10 feet of Mobley

 

[The_Jamal]

Keon, Carter and Keegan defense

You telling me putting all 3 of our best defenders on the floor at the same time makes the defense better? WHATTTT

 

[Kingz19]

It would be easy to say Mobley is smoking Trey or Jonas but it almost looks like it’s the strategy to be nowhere near him

 

[Tetsujin]

LOL Keegan tried pulling Doug Christie away from the ref

 

[SacTownKid]

Carter getting no rookie love calls wise but he's flat out making life hell for Mitchell right now.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Mobley has 2 games this season with 4 or more made threes. This is the third.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Carter getting no respect from the refs out there

 

[LoungeLizard]

Second time Cavs have gotten points after a no call offensive foul vs Carter. Such BS.

 

[megapoxy]

We struggle when 5 vs 5 (like the whole first quarter), we need stops and run the floor straight after.

 

[The_Jamal]

Little things from Carter. Instead of just ball watching as the shot goes up, he runs to go box out Mobley and prevent the offensive rebound. Leaves Keon for the easy board

Man, was just a matter of time before he popped for a game like this. As expected, dude is just a winning player that makes you better when he's on the floor
