[Game] Kings @ Jazz - Saturday, Oct. 26 - 6 PT

[Larry89]

This is painful to watch man... we had a glimpse of what could have been last season and now it looks like back to the same old Kings...

 

[jcwkings]

Dedmond is modern day Mikki Moore.

Dedmond is modern day Mikki Moore.

That's an insult to Mikki Moore.

 

[chief bromden]

Atleast we have our draft pick this season

 

[Kingz19]

lol shut up Grant

The Mumbai curse

That’s the most interesting thing so far this season. Atleast Grant is giving effort

 

[SLAB]

Grant digging for excuses. Doug mentions an early back-to-back.

The reason is clear. This team sucks.

 

[Npliam]

Jazz couldn’t even score last night but Kangz got the remedy. Somewhere Gary Trent and Tony Delk are smiling

To be fair, Bojan didnt play last night and he is really important to our offense.

 

[SLAB]

Ariza is in! The comeback is on!

 

[SLAB]

Wenyen!

 

[Heuge]

Most NBA teams would blow this King’s team out right now. See Phoenix Suns.

 

[SacTownKid]

This will be interesting to see how Waltons players react. I know he had no choice here but it's hard to send this kind of message when clearly this isn't just an effort thing. This is very similar to what we saw the year before last. Players being totally misused to the point that even a post entry pass is doubted by the players. Walton should also have to hand his clipboard one seat over in this instance.

I've been watching a lot of the games this year, I haven't seen a single team look as bad as the Kings have. Not close.

 

[ESP47]

I feel so bad for the people that bought season tickets.

 

[VF21]

Imagine a team being worse than this to start the year and that's probably how a team under Joerger this year would look. Face facts, dude burned his own bridges. Most coaches do but it will forever be considered his MO now when you look at his resume considering it happened more than once. Now, it's probably better to imagine had Karl never been fired. This is a PERFECT team for his system.

 

[SLAB]

Life was easier when 20 wins was the normal, you missed on every pick because you didn’t win lotteries, and expected nothing from anyone.

Take me back.

 

[chief bromden]

To be fair, Bojan didnt play last night and he is really important to our offense.

Are you really implying he is this important? I mean... 86 points with 340 left in the third... lollll

 

[Larry89]

This is honestly one of the worst Kings teams I've watched, no ball movement, no effort on defense, they aren't even giving effort on the defensive end. Everyone looks lost.

And the sad part is that we know these players are talented as hell and can be so much better

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

This is the most bizarre start to a season I can ever remember.

 

[NewArena]

unbelievable

all these guys do is talk. I rolled my eyes before the season when they talked about defense in every other presser, knowing that we’ve heard this **** before. Back to the Musselman days

as a fan I’m beyond tired and sick. Big changes need to be made yet again

Take me back.

Welcome back!

 

[NewArena]

i thought this team was supposed to play with even more pace and launch 30 3’s per game. I just see iso drives

That was a crap coaching plan as well, if we’re being honest with ourselves.

unless James harden is on the way

 

[NewArena]

game 3 and the players are trying to get their head coach fired. hysterical.

It’s pretty obvious to me at this point

no way this can be disguised as “effort”

He spent last year just running teams to the ground, which worked for half a season but he didn't do much in the way of developing a half court offense or a good defense.

There's a reason the team looks like a disaster in the half court and it's more than Walton (though he's a big part of it). It was already like this; it was just masked by the half a season of winning.

[SacTownKid]

Alright it's Justin James time. There is literally no reason to play Ariza at this stage.

 

[Sluggah]

3 games in and I find myself thinking things like “get it under 30 to keep it respectful“ ... this might be a longgggg season.

 

[NewArena]

Justin Jackson would’ve been nice to keep

as frustrating as he was at times

 

[chief bromden]

Are we in range of the Paul Westphal era yet?

 

[Capt. Factorial]

We have played 11 quarters this season and lost 6 of them (and 6 of the last 9) by 10+ points.

 

[dude12]

Right now Walton looks like he is In over his head
