[Game] Kings @ Jazz, 11/02/21 6pm Pacific 9pm Eastern

[NewArena]

Wow, just realized Holmes is already back.

Oh thank God! Im on page 5 of this thread and was so depressed after seeing some of the comments. Hopefully he won't miss any time at all, even though he came back in. I hate our training staff more than anything else in this organization.

I put this game squarely on the refs. Absolute joke

I have to agree. I seldom complain about refs. But this is some crap. They crack down on the offensive player creating contact but they still call phantom crap. I mean if you don’t see it don’t go by a players reaction. Players are liars and cheats. All of them will fake things to win a game. So why trust them?

too little too late.

Pretty sure the absolute crap ball Fox played tonight was much more impactful then a few crappy calls

 

[Tetsujin]

Kings somehow still in it.

 

[NewArena]

I’m getting a tyreke evans vibe with fox. Came in strong was best player on a bad team. Never improved his game.

How in the world are u getting that vibe when he's done nothing but improve for 4 seasons straight? Tyrese literally sucked the very next year after that stat padding rookie year. Please.

 

[SacTownKid]

too little too late.

What you do early, sets the table for later. That's the story this season so far. Not good. Not good at all.

 

[Tetsujin]

Refs refused to call the first two intentional fouls we tried as if they were tying to get De'Aaron to pick up his sixth

He didn’t play well and that factored in, but that 5 min span of officiating was egregious and changed the tempo

 

[NewArena]

This quarter has seen Richaun let like three different passes bounce off his hands like he's Mikki Stonehands Moore but sure it's Fox's fault.

LOL!

If they didn't see goebert bodying up buddy on the replay, they were looking to overturn that call.

the back shot clearly showed him using his forearm in buddy’s lower back/hip.

 

[EIM86]

This was the 6th out of 7th game where the Kings were able to have the lead in the 4th quarter. We need Fox back for closing games

Exactly how many of those rebounds and put-backs did they give up - 8 pts worth easy.

 

[Hoovtrain]

Don’t like that.

 

[Tetsujin]

Why in the effing hell would we go for two there? Go for three.

 

[NewArena]

Mitchell needed 30 shots to get his 34.

Conley got to 30 w/18 shots. He absolutely destroyed the Kings tonight.

30 shots? Jeez. We'd really be killing Fox if he chucked like that around here

 

[TaxMan]

That was….interesting

 

[SacTownKid]

Go small to attack when down 4. I'm done. It's year 3, there is no sense going to be made of this joker. None.

Dammit. Grant would have let us known that we needed to remember those.

 

[NewArena]

Was gonna turn the game on but these comments have killed my mood a bit. Ugh! Bad reffing doing us in again?

 

[Tetsujin]

What the hell was that? Did we think we were only down two?

 

[SLAB]

Being a Kings fan is pain,

 

[OffTheWallJamal]

Why the heck we go for a two there, it was not even a quick 2, HB got the ball with 14 seconds left and Jazz got the rebound with 7 seconds left...

 

[Tetsujin]

Buddy gets ejected because Luke refuses to pick up a tech.

 

[mac]

It's the first official "Oh crap! I forgot to write a game thread!" Game Thread of the season!
De'Aaron Fox vs. Mike Conley - Fox is in a funk. KingsFans.com is at his throat. His shooting splits are down across the board. Not great from your star player but it's also not like we're putting him in the best position to build momentum and get out of it. Hopefully Luke gets out of his own way and starts running pick and rolls again but until then it's hard to see anyone on this team aside from Barnes really playing to their full potential. That said, oddly passive, shot-missing Fox is still better than older Conley. Advantage: Fox.

Cries in sad.

 

[TaxMan]

Nice gameplan at the end

 

[gilly420]

I caught last 5 min, refs really let us have it there 3 plays in a row. That said, the team did not look good. Pretty bad energy. Good for Buddy giving it to the ref at the end

 

[SacTownKid]

Yeah but this is a guard team though. By the numbers you will be giving that up anyway. Offensive efficiency and getting wide open spots shots off of creating mismatches is the bed Monte made and Luke is refusing to lie on it.

Buddy's first career ejection, correct?
