[Game] Kings @ Pelicans (Play-In Tournament) - 4/19 6:30PM PDT/9:30 PM EDT

5-20 on 3s - shot themselves right out of the game once their defense started faltering....

 

[Tizzy Flip]

Well that was ugly, hope Brown has a plan for the second half

I have full confidence his plan is to will continue shooting 3s. Forget about Fox’s, Sabonis’, HB’s success in the paint in the 1st qtr

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Feel like we can use this stupid draft pick but I still think we’d give OKC a series so let’s get this together.

 

[TaxMan]

Actually he shows some not bad defence as well . we can use him to bully inside the pain haha

Next year’s roster construction needs to do something about the repetition in our bench. Lyles = Sasha

 

[Kingz19]

Ingram can also leave this game with injury and I still would have low confidence simply because the Kings can’t find a way to score outside of low percentage one on one against this team. Didn’t in the 5 other games. Haven’t tonight.

Kings needed a fast start. Not just a good one. I think Pelicans would’ve folded if the Kings built a double digit lead. They had the opportunity but Keegan just terrible. Barnes bad. Bench worthless. Keon didn’t attempt a shot until near the end of the 2nd.

One adustment at halftime should be to waive mitchell. Straight up killed our momentum.

Only down 9 with as terrible as that Q2 was … it could be worse.

It isn’t over yet.

It’s on the players to recognize that.

 

[MizzouKing]

I’d like to see some Len and Sabonis on the court together! And throw in whichever bencher is the hungriest and most pissed off.

 

[ick300]

The other benefit is he moves a little more decisively off the ball than both Harrison and Keegan.

We will see what will MB do at the half time ...
Game is still in touch , but we need STRONG 3d quarter ...

 

[Woot!]

We still got this. Have faith

Sure as hell ain't over.

5-20 from 3 and down only 9 at the half.

Defense was never really playing well. The game was close when both teams were playing sloppy, and then the Pelicans stopped being sloppy.

 

[Hoovtrain]

Think I’m going to turn this off and save myself the aggravation. 39 years watching this franchise you’d think I’d learn my lesson

Just like the last game against the Pelicans, I would really like to see the Kings flatten out the offense for Fox a few times. Force the Pelicans to stick all that size on the perimeter more towards the baseline then see if they shift up when you run a high pick and roll from it. They are gobbling up too much space in the paint and can still get back out to shooters.

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

Your only chance of coming back is playing the starters huuuge second half minutes. Basically gotta play Fox the whole half imo.

 

[fansinceday1]

Why are the kings so horrible at ball movement? Why are we so iso dominant?

 

[SLAB]

it’s unsettling you are this positive

Lol, just wait until after this game if it doesn’t go according to plan. I have a lot of pent up frustration about this season. And I really want these guys to prove me wrong. But there’s a dam brimming to burst!

yeah that was a travesty of reffing

 

[Bfreeman]

I think the HB contract has us kind of hamstrung. He’s not a tradable asset and since they’re paying him they don’t want to sit him. He just doesn’t do enough to be a starter. Also Murray is learning his sleep through 80% of the games and just when folks are ready to tar and feather you show up and play.

I'll give this a 3/10.

 

[Tizzy Flip]

If Lyl

Next year’s roster construction needs to do something about the repetition in our bench. Lyles = Sasha

Lyles could be so good with his size and shooting, but he plays so soft and always looks to kick it out in the paint. Makes no sense

Yeah, they've been letting Nance get away with too much. There was a rebound where he just flat out bum rushed Keegan out of bounds and didn't even go after the ball, lol.

 

[DynaPamm]

We’re in trouble and now Murray walking to the tunnel sucks. We need to stop the dam turnovers, our free throws need to start going in and play better D and how about someone guard Ingram? Sasha got to play what a few seconds? Then Trey comes back in?? SMFH our 3’s are not going in so Fox go back to running in the paint? Anyone?? Can anyone get to the paint if our dam 3’s aren’t dropping…I’ll take the 2 instead of a big fat zero.
Ok done venting

 

[Tetsujin]

Keon also needs to be more aggressive on offense in the second half. Still doing great things on D but the Pels are literally just pretending he doesn’t exist on the other end of the floor because he’s just been passing out of sets every single time we throw him the ball

Trey had an equal hand. Davion tried to do too much. Trey tried not to do anything at all.

There is now rule , if teeth is still there is no foul ...

 

[MizzouKing]

We are the better team! Time to own that, believe it, and freakin PLAY like it.

 

[Woot!]

50/50/86 line vs. 42/25/60. And down only 9.

They've gotta start hitting some shots, obviously.

Let's GO!
