[Game] Kings @ Jazz 10/29/2024 6:00pm Pacific 9:00pm Eastern

It’s like Trey Lyle’s just found out marijuana was legal in California and is trying to play catch up on what he missed

 

[Kingz19]

Our starting lineup is very good

Especially since it looks like Huerter may be back in form. Thats three straight solid games in a row. Didn’t seem like he could put a good string together out there last season. Outside of opening night when he had just been cleared, he looks like 22-23 Huerter.

It’s nice to have DeRozan. Just an awesome pick up through and through.

Domas looks like he may be about to have his best season.

Fox playing excellent two way basketball.’

Keegan too though the three needs to get more consistent.


Still want them to balance out the bench sooner rather than later. Especially up front. It seems like Trey is regressing but it’s early and maybe he’s banged up.

Len isn’t off to the best start. I think it’s best when you have a more athletic big to platoon with Len. Hopefully Robinson is in the mail.

Keon has his best game of the season tonight. 3 blocks. Strong defense.

Taking care of business

It would be easy to say meh it was Portland and Utah. But the fact is we lost way too many of those kinds of games last year. Good to go 2-0

Harrison Barnes best rebounding game last year was 8 he did that once. DDR had 8 reb in 1st game. Barnes top ast mark was 4. DDR had 8 tonight. Barnes had 13 games over 20pts last year DDR has 4 in 4 games

Well we were right there in the wolves and lakers game. I still think it will take a good 20 games for everybody to get on the same page completely losing first 2 against who we played was not a big deal for me.

 

[Jones2006]

Kings played well but hard to read much into this game because Utah just looked terrible. Clearly the worst team in the West and it doesn't appear too close honestly.

I just want to see them get into a rhythm. Perfect time for this team to get a back to back against the low end of the conference.

 

[TaxMan]

So far, yes, DDR is going to help most against these lowly teams. Well paced and solid.

Definitely. I really don’t fear that he will lose focus in these types of games….just keep feeding him..

80-2 here we come!!!!

yeah I think not playing Keon cost us a game but I get Mike is playing with rotations.

We lost to Houston 3 times last year lost to Portland, Washington, Detroit ect…. We lost at least 10 games last year that we shouldn’t have. We need to beat the bottom 8 teams everytime.

 

[kingsboi]

LOL Why is Drew Eubanks on the Jazz? Why did they sign so many vets? Why haven’t they traded Clarkson or Collins or Sexton yet?

because GMs know whats in store when dealing with Ainge

B2B against two lengthy bottom dwellers probably would’ve been a couple Ls last year.

Yeh Keon was outstanding. The defensive intensity is exactly what we need in his minutes.

I do wonder how they will integrate Carter into this mix when the time comes. Obviously nothing to worry about now as that is a couple months away but the idea of Ellis and Carter on the court at the same time is super intriguing

I assume that dilemma will be solved through a trade. (Though some evaluators seem to think Carter can guard NBA wings)

I don't see them going with those two together in meaningful time this season

just depends how ready Carter is. I think he can contribute right away once cleared given he is an older prospect and his attitude. Very confident dude, hopefully it translates.

I’m personally not counting on Carter for anything this year. Anything more than a redshirt freshman year is a plus, but I think more likely he earns a role next year with a roster reset.
