[KINGS] Comments that don't warrant their own thread (Redux)

[Spike]

I know this is partly in jest, but a healthy Cousins would actually fit with this team. Still doesn't solve the problem at the 3 spot though.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

so it's just roster flexibility and to save a few bucks?

Easy fix, you just play Marvin there.

As much as I like Boogie, our problems are mostly at the defensive end and with all of his injuries he's not going to be much help there. I'd rather see those C minutes go to Jones and Queta even if they only score 5-10 points per game. If we continue giving up easy baskets in the paint every game it really doesn't matter what else we do because best case we're going to be fighting to win nail biters when our offense is on and we'll be getting blown out when it isn't.

Marvin at SF, Davion at PF, and Cuz running point. Meshing Vlade/Monte into the same person.

Or Davion… why not add a 7th center.

The New Orleans Pelicans, Minnesota Timberwolves and Milwaukee Bucks have seats reserved for pro personnel scouts at tonight's Kings-Cavaliers game. That's more than usual. Maybe it's nothing ... or maybe business is picking up with a month to go before the trade deadline.

I wonder if Sacramento and Milwaukee would revisit a deal involving Divencenzo?

Honest question: Are the Kings the only pro sports team in the last 20 years to build a new venue and not get an All-Star game?

Trying to remember if the Bucks got an all-star game when they opened the Fiserv Center.

Ah, good catch. They did not.

It was Aug, 2018 when the Bucks opened Fiserv Forum to the public. The 2019 NBA All-Star Game was in Charlotte and 2020 in United Center, Chi-town.

If we make the Playoffs next year, that means we'd be more exciting to watch in the regular season, that could potentially mean the year after next we could have a chance to host the All-Star Game?

I think it's more of an infrastructure issue than an arena/excitement issue at this point.

Sacramento just doesn't have enough hotel rooms/convention space to be a viable host for all-star weekend at this current juncture, though considering we're but two hours away from San Francisco and the Tahoe area I'm not sure why that's as big of an issue as it always gets reported as being.

If I recall correctly, the NBA cited insufficient "luxury" hotel space in Sacramento as the reason that they did not give us an All-Star Game. I doubt that has changed enough to have them reverse that decision.

Seven years ago on this date I witnessed the most amazing individual performance I've ever seen in 37 years calling NBA action: Klay Thompson dropping 37 on the Kings in ONE quarter. The jaw dropping assault included a perfect 13 for 13 from the field with 9 threes. Stunning!!!

— Gary Gerould (@ggerould) January 23, 2022

Sounds impressive, I’m pretty surprised we don’t hear about this more often.

 

[mrlaze]

I remember watching that game at the bar and everytime I was paying attention it was Klay hitting a 3.

lol as that quarter started to progress I could sense where it was heading and shut it off…then proceeded to get bombarded with texts form my W’s fan friends

 

[gunks]

I was "lucky" enough to catch that game live.

Actually pretty wild, and by the end of it I wasnt even mad, more appreciative of the spectacle of a historic scoring display.

 

[ESP47]

I prefer reminiscing about the Casspi vs. Curry 3pt showdown randomly in the middle of a game.

Neemias Queta finished 25th in All-Star fan votes in West frontcourt with 88k — by far the most of any Kings player. He also had one player vote!

Barnes and Holmes each earned 4 player votes.

Fox and Mitchell each had 2 player votes; Hield and Haliburton had 1 apiece.

Don't worry folks, Fox will make it next year!

his regression is one one of the most disappointing of any player I’ve rooted for. Kaep was #1 because he just absolutely sucked after year 3, at least Fox is still good lol

Precisely why everyone and their grandmas are yelling at him to shoot more. But past few games aren't helping his case
