LUKE REALLY WANTS THIS

 

[chief bromden]

This is pathetic

 

[pdxKingsFan]

The Detroit announcers making it sound like Sacramento snapping their streak against them is somehow going to hurt their fee fees.

 

[Tetsujin]

De’Aaron out here playing chess while everyone else out here rolling in dog turds in the front yard.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Bjelica stock trending up maybe.

 

[SLAB]

Miss it. I want the world to burn.

 

[Tetsujin]

Oh my god this game is never gonna end

 

[Capt. Factorial]

The intentionally-missed free throw with 12 seconds on the clock in a 2-point game is either the absolutely worst strategy I've ever seen or the sneakiest tank-disguised-as-idiocy ever thought up.

And they did it again.

There are no words.

 

[Iced Espresso]

The end of the game is like reading War & Peace.

 

[SacTownKid]

Casey didn't have to bank it off yet. There was plenty of clock. Hahaha. NBA basketball is brought to you by the 3 Stooges.

 

[SLAB]

There is not a single positive thing I can say. This game is the definition of “Woss.”

 

[Reverend]

What a pathetic win

 

[Tetsujin]

Jerami Grant airmails a three with plenty of time on the clock to lose the game. Just like Dwayne Casey drew it up.

 

[SacTownKid]

Yeah, Casey isn't going to lose that tank race boys. He's even being fairly deliberate. I admire him though. It takes a coach with some cajones to openly make himself look like a moron to get the job done. To that I say well played coach, well played.

 

[Woot!]

If Holmes can finish this game, Kings win.

 

[SacTownKid]

This should count a draw at best. If for nothing more than it not being in the spirit of competition.

I'm so confused right now. Either that was the most poorly executed 60 seconds of basketball I've seen in a long time or there were guys on both sides who were trying to win it for the other team.

 

[Tetsujin]

The Pistons came back from a 17-pt deficit before throwing away the game just to prove that they could.

Possibly the longest 60 seconds of meaningless basketball I've ever witnessed as well.

Call it meaningless when Detroit finishes one ping pong draw ahead of the Kings when the lottery happens.

This is what is so sad. Walton was working his butt off against a coach trying to hand it to him and he kept spiking that win down harder than a clipboard. All they had to do was run pnr into Plumlee every play. Instead they ran triangle lite. We in trouble folks. Walton is probably the worst coach in the league right now. I'm stunned, totally stunned.

Pistons announce crew: "I'm bummed out, that was a winnable game."

They didn't call out the intentionally missed FTs or any of the other nonsense and are legitimately acting like the Pistons are trying. Cute.

 

[Sluggah]

A master class in failing. And all it cost was 3 hours of my life.

 

[SacTownKid]

Nah, just watch. When other teams start doing that, the Kings will feast. It might be this pathetic but they'll feast. Who knows, maybe this game was the turn around! Low post motion offense through Beli! We've found the key! LOL.

I'm not a betting person but I am pretty sure at least 5 games will separate us by the end of the season.

 

[SactownShaq]

We did it, we won a game. When’s the parade lol.

Or the fact that Plumlee was a -17 and Stewart was a +19 who didn't even play much in the 2nd half for no reason. For that to be legit it would put Walton in league with Red freaking Auerbach compared to Casey.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

"Luke Walton ... he treated it like it was a playoff game."

LMFAO these guys.

After that cacophony of a game it better not be on the street. Under it sounds about right.
