Total whiff on shooting.....

 

[gunks]

he embarrases everyone he defends.

I didnt know about him before tonight, but he sure looks like a beast on D.

he looks good on offense too. made his threes. makes smart passes. moves well.

 

[burekijogurt]

well, things don't get any easier as Denver is next.

I like that the Kings have a reliable half court offense but the next step is to rediscover their transition 3 game. Walton calls out almost every play which forces the Kings to walk the ball up. We're missing a lot of the explosiveness of Bjelica, Buddy, and Bogdan we saw last year as a result.

 

[kingdivac]

Kings were settling too much for jump shots...needed to attack the basket alot more. 9 FT attempts to 24?

Yeah, they went away from Barnes again. He probably needs to take 20+ shots in a game like this.

You have to think De'Aaron Fox fixes a lot of that. CoJo simply not cutting it on the offensive side.

 

[Roc Paint]

More minutes please

 

[burekijogurt]

our defense seems consistently good. that felt weird coming off my fingertips. but it seems like that unless i'm getting tricked by optics..

 

[Roc Paint]

I wasn’t able to see the block tonight, but that combined with the DeAndre Jordan’s “ most wanted “ facial is good for me for the week

 

[gunks]

Whomp whomp!

Ending the road trip in Philly was always gonna be tough. I'm not surprised Holmes got beasted on by Embiid (along with everyone else), dude was obviously gonna be on a mission tonight after dropping that goose egg in his last game.

I'm not super peeved about this loss, one cool thing about having a legit coach like Luke is that every L can be a learning experience, this isn't like years past where the takeaway after every loss was "we just gotta play faster" or some other such nonsense.

It'll be nice to see the squad play at home with Bagley (hopefully)!

 

[thingfish]

Although it’s been ok to see our backups show some feisty-ness. I’m really looking forward to when we just have our full team available and ready for action.

 

[Kingster]

There were a lot of short shots, even at the free throw line. They just didn't have their legs for shooting, and they couldn't compete inside.

I was hoping the Kings could draft Thybulle, but they didn't have a first rounder. I'll take JJ as a consolation prize. That runner of his is darn near money on every attempt. His ball handling was very good as well.

We're all waiting on Bagley at this point. Can't wait to get that talent infusion in the lineup.

 

[Hoovtrain]

They hung tough...again. Can’t ask for much more down 2 of their top 3 players

 

[MixM]

CoJo is most stupid player Kings ever had.

 

[Cojc]

We are undermanned and I hope having Bagley back will improve the rotation. No matter what others say our #2 pick has not had a real good chance to shine and with this teams structure at this point he should get a lot of run to actually see where we are with him.

The team has had way too many bad breaks with injuries. Yeah the refs didn’t help but if we are basing those losses on one play maybe we shouldn’t have made to many dumb plays to put us in that position.

We drafted Fox to run the offense and not have to depend on others to create their own offense (Buddy) . Many have talked about Bogi and Buddy being spot up jump shooters and we have put them right where we didn’t want them to be.

After all my complaints above I think this team has hung together and given us a tough and never give up attitude that has and will continue to pay dividends but they need to have the rest of the team back.

The Sixers are undefeated at home and you can see why. Great length, defense and rebounding. They share the ball. They are well coached and tough to beat.

The Kings continue to stay in games with their defense. Dedmon finally showed some signs of life and matched up better against the Embid Monster.

Matisse Thybulle was fun to watch at U of WA. He is like a secret weapon. His wingspan is extreme. He led his college team in blocks from the guard postion. He set records for steals and he can score. The passing lanes against Phila are really narrow.

The Sixers exposed the Kings weakness on the defensive boards.

 

[chief bromden]

At least we’re getting open shots I guess. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Can’t shoot like hot garbage all night...right?

Challenge accepted!

Irony is a beautiful thing.

Why isn't Yogi getting burn?

 

[ppine]

One of the secrets to having fun with sports and being a happy fan, is to have reasonable expectations.
For a team that has not been remotely close to playing at .500 for over ten years, being disappointed by going 5-5 is just setting yourself up for heartache.

The Kings have trouble shooting against the Sixers, because Phila. players are really big and play good defense.
Notice that the next time you see them play.

Not even close.

Also tired legs. Makes knocking down threes more difficult.
