[Game] Kings at Wizards, Sunday Nov. 24, 3 PM PT/6 PM ET

[The_Jamal]

That Holmes hedge on the perimeter was absolutely beautiful. The ability to stick with Beal there forcing an incredibly tough shot? Huge.

 

[Kingz19]

Excellent team defense on Bradley Beal. Rare that a Kings team had such a focused defensive attack to leave it to the other guys to beat them. Good win

 

[Kingster]

Very nice bounce back win from the Nets game. Barnes and Bogs were money in the 4th.

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

Really nice win here.

Let’s not forget, we’re 7-3 without Fox and Bagley. We have great depth. Imagine if we can continue rolling and add Fox and Bagley back into the equation. The last two Playoff seeds are wide open it looks like.

 

[The_Jamal]

7 point road win with Bjelica and Buddy shooting 3/11 from 3 and 7/25 overall with no Fox and Bagley? Hard to be anything but pleased

 

[kingdivac]

They won with "B/B+" defense.

 

[Tetsujin]

Really nice win here.

Let’s not forget, we’re 7-3 without Fox and Bagley. We have great depth. Imagine if we can continue rolling and add Fox and Bagley back into the equation. The last two Playoff seeds are wide open it looks like.

And it's happened in a way where we're developing extra depth as we go along now. These minutes now will help the surprisingly good JJ later.

 

[Kingster]

Barnes with 26 points off 8 field goals. That's what I call productive!

Remember the analytics guys tell you he is only worth $3 million a season.

 

[PacMan]

So after the 0-5 start, we are now 7-3 in the last ten without our starting PG and projected starting PF. I wanted Luke gone after the horrendous start but he's having them playing some good ball since

 

[Kingster]

Remember the analytics guys tell you he is only worth $3 million a season.

LOL!

 

[dude12]

Barnes balled out tonight
Bogi continues his stellar play
Cojo continues his tough ass defense
Holmes showing WCS how to bring it every night
Hield made shots in the 4th when needed
JJ playing quality productive minutes
Kings hold Wash to 106 which is a good thing

Winning > Losing

 

[krylia sovetov]

Bertrans stroke is so pure

tell me about it... still have trauma's because of his 3pt shots when he played in serbia... in partizan, with bogi
i cheer for their archrival



great win, great!

was far from impressed with our performance, but we still managed to win.

 

[SacTownGrantFan]

The Kings picked up a quality road victory. After an abysmal start, now 1 game away from .500! The turnaround of this team has been great. Big sigh of relief. Go Kings

 

[Kingster]

I hope Bogs can play in the back-to-back game tomorrow with that hammy of his.

ThE mAvS wOn ThE jJ/BaRnEs TrAdE!!!

 

[SacTownKid]

This is the first time we've seen them really rely on Barnes and we need to see more of that. On this roster, both he and Bagley are the two that have shown the ability to score without you having to call a play for them. Fox can to an extent as well. There is so much untapped versatility on this roster offensively and I think Walton and Igor are the ones who will finally bring it out.

 

[Tizzy Flip]

Very nice bounce back win from the Nets game. Barnes and Bogs were money in the 4th.

Buddy had some key shots as well. Good to see him bounceback

Don't forget Z-Bo

 

[reptilexcq2]

I think the Kings is better with Giles than Dedmon when playing small ball. Not sure why they're benching Giles. He makes impact whenever he's in the game.

 

[Kangztillidie]

This JJ is a player.

 

[Tizzy Flip]

Barnes post game today reminded me of Mitch. Absolutely exploited whoever was on him. Loved seeing it.

Also love seeing Holmes impact on the game. 16pts, 10 boards and 4 blocks, and great help defense

 

[SacTownKid]

I think the Kings is better with Giles than Dedmon when playing small ball. Not sure why they're benching Giles. He makes impact whenever he's in the game.

If they start posting Dedmon at that corner and short corner 3 like they eventually did in this game we will finally see why Vlade paid Dedmon what he did. We're already seeing the defense from him however. Giles might have a higher ceiling but Dedmon is reliable which is all important for a team looking to make that next step and unless talent becomes an issue at some point those reliable pieces can be a difference maker.

This. As frustrating as Dedmon's offensive output has been, he's been a really solid defensive player to plug into the game while Holmes takes a breather.

 

[jcwkings]

I think Bagley can fit in with how this team is playing. More of a half court drag it out game. Bogi running the show with guys like Barnes and Bagley pounding it inside and Buddy spreading the floor. The question will be how you handle the rotation because Holmes has been such a key cog to the better play. His pick and roll and rim defense is insane and his roll gravity on offense is near elite.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Wizards should have played Schofield more minutes. If Schofield had played more, they would have won.

 

[Noble]

Solid, solid win. Working as a team on defense, and attacking the rim on offense won this game. Sprinkle in some timely 3s and this win felt good.

 

[sergmatt]

Great win again and this defense is for real.

One big question..... Is Bogi going to keep playing like this when Fox comes back?

Not sure what got into him but he's back to the good version of himself.

The teams current play style fits Bogi so much more than last seasons frantic pace. This team should play fast when Fox comes back but Fox also has to learn how to play a more half court style if this team ever wants to have success in the playoffs.

 

[OldSchoolKingsFan]

Wait, so we have FIVE uniforms this year (white, black, purple, blue, red)? I thought each team was only supposed to have four.

We have 6 then, the first 5 games were brown. S$@! Brown. Such a different team once Walton figured it out!
