[Game] Kings @ Mavericks - Wednesday, Feb. 12 - 5:30PT/8:30ET

Grant: Fox now 1 of 8 from the floor.

As opposed to what? From the ceiling? From the light standard? From the scorer table?
 
Only Bazemore and Barnes have imposed their will on this game to any extent. The rest are no-shows. Walton better set the locker room on fire at half time.
 
Mavs are sagging into the paint. Fox needs to shoot his mid range n shoot a few threes to force the Mavs out of the paint.

They are also playing aggressive switch defense on the pick and roll. They need to run a nice tight little middle pick and roll between Fox and a shooter. Get Fox into the middle of the paint to either finish or dish back out. Also, run some of that through Bogdan as well. He's big enough to be able to keep bigs on his side and has the length to get the ball up to the backboard with full ball control.
 
The chair dude is doing the halftime show. Every time I see his act, I think he’s going to eat it.

There are times when I believe the coach should just sit and stare at them and say nothing. Let the anticipation drive the players nuts.

Well Walton needs to remember that basketball is all rhythm, not whack a mole. You can't yank players in an out like they're playing cards in a poker game.
 
And the rotation looks like something when a GM sends word down to the bench to start showcasing for the deadline. Newsflash! Deadline passed! LOL.

Yea, I guess it’s out of necessity.

This roster is what happens when you try to pierce the needle knowing that your two young bigs may be out the rest of the year.

Not really. Bjelica foul trouble isn't the difference between sense and chaos. I can understand matching up but that wasn't it either.
 
And that's where either having the right coach for your players or the right players for your coach comes in. Walton needs certain types to be able to run his defensive sets. Switch ability, length to help, and quickness to run back out are all important.

That's why I thought there would be more done at the trade deadline to get those types.
 
You can't leave them out there to dig the hole to China either. It's too dangerous. They have a lot of corona virus over there.

Haha. So I hear. Maybe that would be a perfect excuse in his end of the year sit down with the front office though. That or the one armed man did it worked for Reggie Theus if I recall.
 
They almost look like Buddy Hield the first half of the season. It's very strange. Are their minds in the Bahamas?

It's possible that's playing a part. You darn well know that report about Vivek didn't fall on deaf ears though. Maybe it's nothing, maybe it is. We'll see in the 3rd quarter.
