[Game] Kings at Thunder, Friday 11/12/21, 5 PM PST (8 PM EST)

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

@Tetsujin appears to be busy, so here's the Game thread.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Looks like @Tetsujin is not going to be putting up a game thread, so I guess it's up to somebody!

I haven't seen an injury report, so I don't know if Haliburton is playing.

 

[Spike]

Bagley goes for 20/10. Fans rejoice.
Kings lose by 15. Walton is fired.
Fans...rejoice?

 

[HndsmCelt]

Somehow I get the feeling that tonight is either Walton's last night as head coach or he buys himself a few more weeks with a win.

 

[Entity]

He said he would be busy the next few days. Good news is metu is starting tonight. No harkless. I myself will have to record and watch at normal time. So I won’t be around either. I know I’m a joy but you guys will have to wait until we get back on the west coast

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

Haliburton and Metu both starting tonight. Definitely surprised about Metu since I haven’t seen any injury news in regards to Harkless.

 

[SLAB]

METU LETS GOOOOOOO

 

[jiimbob]

Looking forward to how Giddey plays against our guards. Living in Australia and all but also thought Monte was targeting him if he fell to 9.

 

[dude12]

Wow….Metu getting a start. I like it. Knock down a 3 or 2 or 3.

 

[SacTownKid]

Bagley goes for 20/10. Fans rejoice.

Kings win by 30. Walton talks about how they just need to trust the process.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

So we're going with a traditional PF and a traditional SF? Revolutionary!

 

[SacTownKid]

Wow….Metu getting a start. I like it. Knock down a 3 or 2 or 3.

This franchise is a disaster. Just a disaster. Even if it works, these calls weren't the answer last year, and not the answer now. Now, not starting Harkless is always a good thing but another year, another year of somebody clearly not recognizing what works and what doesn't. Band aids, nothing more.

 

[dude12]

If the players come out and play like they are disengaged or have given up, then the clock is ticking.

 

[SacTownKid]

If the players come out and play like they are disengaged or have given up, then the clock is ticking.

Is it though? haha. It's been ticking since that horrendous bubble showing.

 

[SacTownKid]

So we're going with a traditional PF and a traditional SF? Revolutionary!

I also like the cunning move of doing it when they've gotten to the bottom of the hill in terms of their competition.

 

[captain bill]

Not a fan of this starting lineup

 

[SLAB]

Wow….Metu getting a start. I like it. Knock down a 3 or 2 or 3.

Dude’s about to make TD look shy by comparison.

 

[dude12]

Fox just set up an open 3 for Metu and he didn’t take it

 

[SacTownKid]

Dang, Giddey is big.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

That was a top-ten worst offensive possession this year

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Their PG is taller than our C

 

[Woot!]

They already look way more engaged.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Can we just turn off the shot clock and dribble the game out?

 

[dude12]

Metu off the a rough start

 

[SacTownKid]

This is honestly some of the ugliest BBall I've seen. haha.

 

[Kingz19]

Lol I forgot that OKC fans don’t sit down until there is a Thunder basket

 

[SacTownKid]

Metu off the a rough start

He is moving much better to open spots than Harkless does. He understands spacing better for sure.

 

[SLAB]

Lmao this game.

 

[PurpleHaze]

If you don't like that you don't like D-League basketball !!

 

[dude12]

I wish Hali would pull the trigger on the 3
