[Game] Kings @ Nets, 3/16/2023, 4:30p PST/7:30p EST

[9x1x6]

Kevin Huerter (right leg injury) will NOT return to the game tonight for the Kings. I was told that he is in good spirits and that they are optimistic that it is nothing serious.

Prayers up

 

[SLAB]

Who said that?

The sideline reporter on the Nets broadcast.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Monk is going to be jacked from all the times he’s had to pick up Domas from the floor

 

[SLAB]

is that an actual quote or an inside joke I missed?

Actual quote. From the Nets sideline lady.

 

[Caccia]

18 and 9 w/2 assists and 3 blocks - and we have almost 3 min to go til half.

Good grief, Mr. Sabonis.

Exactly what we wanted to see.

Nets announcers are some of the least annoying I’ve heard all year long. They’re pretty low-key and not homer at all. Actively calling out when Sabonis is getting hammered instead of yelling “FLOOOOP” like some dorks a few games ago.

You'd get humbled too after first carrying two HoF-level superstars into the season to now barely resemble a team...

BTW, I just got here. How was that Huerter injury look? Did it look bad?

Now they’re actively calling out Dinwiddie for his stretch of blowing a layup, complaining, making an intentional foul, then getting T’d. Lol

Kings putting together a very nice defensive second quarter.

Looked a lot worse than it hopefully turns out.

Domas eating

 

[Hoovtrain]

Keep building this lead!

Woj says hamstring

ESPN Sources: Early indications on Kings guard Kevin Huerter is that he's injured his right hamstring vs. Nets tonight. He'll undergo an MRI on Friday.

Hammy per Woj

 

[SLAB]

Sabonis is a beast, fam.

 

[kingdivac]

Sabonis changes to scoring mode from assist mode ....and put a 2nd Q hurtin' on the Nets

Good grief, Mr. Sabonis.

What's insane is that this line isn't really all that insane anymore. Kind of like "eh, another day at the office"

 

[iowamcnabb]

Ball don’t lie

Only two assists. Slacking.

 

[Hoovtrain]

I’ll take that half, thought we were headed to blowout city

Domas eating

Let the big dog eat

 

[The_Jamal]

Up 13 shooting 37.5% FG and 26.1% from 3 is insane. Defense???

Also BKN missing quite a few shots they shouldn't be.

 

[SacTownKid]

I'm not sure if the Nets are just trying to tank, or if they honestly think that Claxton is going to be the next Hakeem down low. I'm all for development but this looks like a bad idea all the way around hahaha.

 

[9x1x6]

nice run to end it before halftime

 

[Caccia]

Woj says hamstring

Oh, boy.

 

[Kingz19]

Up double figures shooting 37 percent.

 

[KainLear]

I used to think Sabonis at best would just be a baby-Jokic. Domas might end up potentially winning out in efficiency.

 

[Lionheart]

Thanks for all the kind words friends, its much appreciated!

And what a first half by our Kings, playing great team ball and so far shutting them down very well. Keep up this same energy the second half and this will be a big road win.

 

[Caccia]

Only two assists. Slacking.

One of those was a beautiful pass to Mitchell, streaking in for a layup.

 

[kingdivac]

Nets are shooting terrribly....in traditional Kings fashion I expect them to have a lackadaisical quarter to get back close to even by end of the 3rd.
Hoping Brown gives Davis some memento minutes to try to spark a fire.
