[Game] Kings at Bucks, Monday Feb. 10, 5 PM PT/8 PM ET

Thank Naismith for Harrison Barnes.

Walton is going to force the Bucks to pull Brook Lopez. They’re attacking him off the bounce n off of screens.

 

[Amiga]

Underpaid barnes

 

[kingdivac]

That "get rid of Barnes" thread looking really bad right now

For what he's paid, this should be the norm.

Usage is everything. Now, I'm sure playing him at center isn't going to be the norm, but versatility is his strength. If you expect him to be a full time SF it can look like a weakness at times.

The only issue is Barnes is playing as the 5. Will work against Houston n Bucks without Giannis, but not many other teams.

For what he's paid, this should be the norm.

If they paid him to be a one position wing they paid the wrong guy.

 

[Groovygreg]

Considering the Kings aren’t making shots, they have to be happy they’re only down by 5.

Interesting - I put "sharpshooter" into GIPHY to try and find a gif for Barnes and this is what came up first;

 

[Hoovtrain]

Hey just let lopez go over the back everu time ref

 

[Kingster]

Nice grit on the defensive end by the Kings. Gives them confidence on the offensive end.

 

[Groovygreg]

B. Lopez is a beast down low.

Their defense has picked up fairly.

 

[steelevt]

Feed the hot hand guys

 

[SacTownKid]

Bogdan is missing some otherwise easy shots for him.

 

[Tetsujin]

Harrison Barnes blowing the hoop up from the perimeter like KD

 

[kb02]

B. Lopez is a beast down low.

They threw a zone on the next play.

 

[kingdivac]

Bogdan has to hit that open 3

Grant with his second hat trick reference tonight, phenomenal

 

[SacTownKid]

B. Lopez is a beast down low.

It's amazing how much a rep makes a difference. Harry Giles makes that same hit on a guard and he's fouling out in 4 minutes.

 

[Amiga]

This game is winnable if we can somehow keep lopez from looking like an all star.

 

[Kingster]

We need to trade Barnes.

 

[kb02]

Grant with his second hat trick reference tonight, phenomenal

I’m watching on NBA tv n the bucks announcers are horrible compared to grant n Doug.

 

[kingdivac]

It's amazing how much a rep makes a difference. Harry Giles makes that same hit on a guard and he's fouling out in 4 minutes.

The refs are not calling the contact on drives much, but everything else.

 

[burekijogurt]

Bogdan is missing some otherwise easy shots for him.

he missed 2 shots. unless he ends up cold tonight thats not to worry yet. he hits his next shot and he is shooting 50%. we just need to keep penetrating, moving the ball and creating those shots

 

[Kingster]

Best guess is that Walton is saving Giles so he can have him in the 4th quarter. He's the only length other than Bjelica that they have right now.

 

[Joshoua]

I think he should be at PF

 

[kingdivac]

Refs are calling much, but fairly even at least.

 

[kingdivac]

Common Hield///!

Bucks are now small. Good thing Giannis is out.
