[Game] Kings @ Mavericks, 3/05/2022 2pm Pacific 5pm Eastern

[captain bill]

And of course Gentry benches Fox

 

[NiNetNiNe]

We have been the more aggressive team all game and yet there is a huge gap in FT attempts.

 

[steelevt]

Sigh

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

Gentry with a timeout wayyyyy too late. Now we need Fox to drag us to a win since no way else can score to save their lives.

 

[Tetsujin]

Dinwiddie playing like Kyrie.

 

[SLAB]

Lol, us.

Not sure why he elected not to call one when DiVincenzo was lying knocked out cold on the floor but maybe he just din't see him?

 

[EIM86]

And that’s why my PTSD was getting ready to kick in sigh

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

Exactly, but I think he was arguing with an official when DDV was down.

 

[hrdboild]

I don't think I've ever been this relaxed about a big lead evaporating. It'd be nice to win, but it would be nice to lose too so whatevs. It doesn't look like we're good enough on the road to realistically challenge for a play-in spot this season anyway.

 

[Tetsujin]

Domas suddenly turning into a bad free throw shooter is bizarre.

 

[Sluggah]

Sure. Why wouldn’t Dinwiddie shoot 8 more free throws than Fox.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I think I can hear Chuck Cooperstein's yelling over Draper's mic.

 

[Tetsujin]

That['s gotta be an and-1, right?

 

[Tetsujin]

Maybe the owner shouldn't be the one telling his coaches when to challenge calls?

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

That looked like an obvious call, to me. But I guess if the guy who signs your checks tells you to challenge...

 

[miltonap]

That['s gotta be an and-1, right?

on the replay it looked like Fox shoved him

 

[miltonap]

Fox and Sabonis need to spend all summer shooting. Nothing else, just shooting the ball

 

[hrdboild]

The Dallas announcers think it's a clear offensive foul. I thought Powell was already falling before Fox's forearm made contact, but I'm obviously biased. Based on past experience it's probably a flagrant 2 ejection on Fox.

 

[Tetsujin]

That looked like an obvious call, to me. But I guess if the guy who signs your checks tells you to challenge...

The issue with this kind of foul is that it penalizes a guy for being faster than the dude trying to guard him.

 

[Tetsujin]

Unsuccessful challenge! Suck on that, Cuban.

 

[Tetsujin]

DE'AARON FOX 4 MVP!!!!!!!!!

 

[hrdboild]

Actually on the replay angle, Fox does initiate contact but Powell hasn't established position either so probably a blocking foul in that case?

 

[steelevt]

Swipa swiping

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

"Remember those two points, Kayte..."

 

[Tetsujin]

De'Aaron Fox is taking over.

 

[EIM86]

Fox should have like 30 billion free throws today

 

[hrdboild]

Fox has got some Doug Christie in him with the way he turns up the defensive pressure in the 4th quarter.

 

[PurpleHaze]

Foxy says wining time yall.

 

[Tetsujin]

Fox is playing HARD on defense too
