[Game] 71/82: Kings vs. Celtics 24 MAR 2025, 7pm PT/10pm ET

[Caccia]

Mayby Keon can slow down Pritchard.

Edit: They left him wide open, but he missed.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

I don’t know anything about dance but I have to imagine choreographers are getting close to tapped out on organized dance routines

You say that but then somebody comes up with "The Dougie" and Terpsichore gets a new lease on life

Sabonis had Holiday on him and we decide to go with the derozan “mismatch”

Another poor end of the quarter.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Well, could be worse, you don't win the game in the 2nd quarter. Keep it within distance the. Steal it

 

[megapoxy]

Cheap calls when Kings defending, no calls when Celtics defending, nothing new...
Mark Jones could stop praising Celtics that much!

 

[Tetsujin]

Kornet gets the Jokic whistle where he’s so slow and athletic that the refs just give him the benefit of the doubt on all of his moving screens

Mark Jones in ESPN “Boston ass-kissing” mode tonight lol

 

[coolhandluke]

Kings brain dead on offense but still within striking distance of the Celtics.

My god, you should see the commentary on Celts channel. It's the first time I looked for Katie. These guys complaine more than the players. It's the worst I've seen and I've seen Kate

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Honestly think we actually play better when we are down a little compared to.up a lil. Better to steal the win then try to hold onto one for us it seems

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Another poor end of the quarter.

Lavine's shot attempt at the end there, with that amount of time on the clock, was a head scratcher. Awful

 

[SacTownKid]

Just have to keep on gutting through it. The Celtics definitely look like a championship team in the home stretch of going for ring 2. The only thing DC might want to change up is the pick and roll coverage. The C's make you switch and if you don't you pay.

 

[iowamcnabb]

We’ve played decent defense. It’s so hard to guard Tatum, it’s all about the screens. Hes a master at using them.

15 point deficit from 3 is the problem. We have two guys near the top of the league in percentage and they are a combined 0-3. To me this is a coaching issue id like to see addressed. Find a way to get those guys 3 point looks. Draw something different up.

 

[gunks]

Deebo and Zach need to combine for at least 40 in the second half for us to have a chance. We live and die by the Bullz Boiz.

Both of them don't seem to have it this game. Deebo doesn't have the legs and Zach the brain.

Celts with KP on the bench are soft on the inside, yet we settle for contested outside shots.

Jay Triano is not that guy. Hope whoever we get next season is better. Please let it be Tuomas Iisalo.

dude if Katie bothers you so much simple solution, just listen on the radio and turn the TV down or just don't listen at all and just watch. Honestly I'm not that bothered by her myself. Everyone like her has opinions, even if they aren't the correct ones. I mean look how much Grant was hated on game? I figure that life is too short to get that bothered by what someone says. I wasn't a fan of Grant, so if I wasn't in the mood to listen to him, I just watched the game without commentary. I know enough about basketball that it didn't bother me.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

They need to lay off this Mystikal.

 

[DynaPamm]

Well would be great of Deebo and LaVine would step it up, don’t let Pritchard have so many wide open shots. Can’t believe Domas the Warrior is out there like he’s never been gone.

OMFG effn ref mode

 

[coolhandluke]

Christie sleepwalking out there

 

[Sherds]

Sabonis needs to focus... Still arguing with the sac bench 2 plays after they didn't challenge the call he wanted

 

[Krunker]

Zach's move around Porzingis was pretty sweet

 

[megapoxy]

"We are looking at MVP folks"... not even close Mark

 

[Letsgokings13]

Lavine is a joke. And not a funny one.

 

[Caccia]

It feels like Boston is just toying with the Kings. At least they are not smug about it like some teams--they have on their game faces.

Plenty of things the Kings can do to get back in this, too.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Omg these f n refs man. 3 dam balls thar went out on Celtics and bad foul calls come on

Most Valuable Pizza provider... Mark was right!

 

[iowamcnabb]

If Boston wins a chip I wonder if they trade Brown. New ownership wants under the second apron and they could get a haul

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

"Close" is relative. I would argue that you could definitely name two players who are having better seasons, but I'm not convinced that you can name three. That would qualify as close, at least.
