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

[Woot!]

HB is a foul drawing machine

They really need to go to him more, especially when the offense falls apart.

After registering 18+ FGA in 3 of the first four games, he's now averaging 13.1 FGA overall.

 

[Woot!]

Plus:the Kings are up 14

minus: the Kings are only up 14 against this OKC team

This OKC team has won 3 in a row. Beggars, choosers, and whatnot.

 

[Woot!]

Kings started 4-17 from 3. Hit 5 of their last 6 and, lo and behold, they start looking a *lot* better.

 

[SacTownKid]

Key indicators shining through here. This team has no halfcourt offense nor a belief in it.

 

[Sluggah]

Uh oh.

When you've bought out, that 3 ball will keep you in games if it's falling.

 

[dude12]

Just run middle pnr until they can stop it

Key indicators shining through here. This team has no halfcourt offense nor a belief in it.

75% of the time, it's hard to believe the Kings even have offensive sets.

Has tyrese become our best player?

 

[Woot!]

For better or worse, Metu definitely makes his presence felt out there, doesn't he? Don't think Harkless is seeing that starting spot again anytime soon.

 

[OptimusRhyme]

Methree

 

[The_Jamal]

HOLY METU DEfense.

Stop Shai getting the rim then switches over to help rim protect on the Bazley drive and get the block. Huge.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Has tyrese become our best player?

Best? No. Most important? Maybe.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

I wouldn't be surprised if Haliburton becomes the league leader in assists at some point

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I wouldn't be surprised if Haliburton becomes the league leader in assists at some point

I would; Haliburton doesn't dominate the ball enough to lead the league in assists. If he can hang around that Top 5, though, the Kings have a chance to be something.

 

[Woot!]

On track to give up another 30+ quarter.

 

[dude12]

Play D like you mean it and put this game away

 

[SacTownKid]

I would; Haliburton doesn't dominate the ball enough to lead the league in assists. If he can hang around that Top 5, though, the Kings have a chance to be something.

And eventually teams will double him on pick and roll. Haliburton makes the smart plays and for him passing out of a lot of plays "stars" attack in is him making the smart play.

For better or worse, Metu definitely makes his presence felt out there, doesn't he? Don't think Harkless is seeing that starting spot again anytime soon.

He's a better player than Bagley.

 

[SLAB]

Poku looks like a created video character with the sliders set to extremes.

 

[SacTownKid]

Someone must of misspelled Metu and put Go-to on the roster sheet tonight haha. Settle down Chimezie. That max deal ain't coming after 1 game.

Credit to him and his Docs. They put some beef on the bod there.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Credit to him and his Docs. They put some beef on the bod there.

He has gone from Close Encounters Of The Third Kind to The Machinist.

 

[Woot!]

12 and 4 w/a block for Metu in 20 min. As we knew, not shy about lettin' 'em fly. Importantly, 3-7 from 3. (7-17 - 41% - on the year.) Active defensively.

PLAY THE MAN. Let him learn. Let him grow. He's earned it, and we don't have better options opposite HB. (Unless it's King.)

 

[PurpleHaze]

This game should not be this close going down the wire to crunch time. Kings are a freaking mess.

 

[SacTownKid]

See, they're starting to pressure Haliburton on pick and roll. Teams can turn that nozzle off if he keeps trying to attack the middle like this.

 

[dude12]

Oh boy

 

[Woot!]

2 missed dunks from TT.

 

[k_dubb90]

What the hell is our offense right now

 

[SCKingsfan]

how many dunks is TT going to miss?
