[Game] Kings @ Rockets, 3/30/2022 5pm Pacific, 8pm Eastern

[Tetsujin]

we chose not to by winning in Indy and Orlando. Once we won both of those it was over.

In all honesty, I would prefer that to what the Blazers are doing lol

 

[est.1999]

Seems like every year we pick in the 6-8 range. And we always win at the end of the season for no reason.

 

[Tetsujin]

This game definitely going to overtime. I can feel it in my bones.

I know, at least the Kings look like they kind of have a plan. haha. That is until they trade Davion/2022/2024 pick for Dame.

I was happier than most in Portland when they made their trade deadline moves. It seems Dame is on board so ??? I dunno.

Honestly, as long as they don't finish 6 with us 7 and then make the leap into the top 4, I will probably be ok when some dumb team blows up the draft by going off script ahead of us and we either pick the player I like or Monte goes off script himself but nails the pick.

But if 8 or 9 jump and we fall back to 8 or 9 and get frozen out of the 2-3 guys I like then I will be very upset.

 

[Tetsujin]

Harrison got Monte's memo.

 

[Tetsujin]

The offense is running through Damian Jones, just as Naismith intended

 

[Tetsujin]

Overtime here we come!

 

[Tetsujin]

Davion drew a clutch charge OMG

 

[Tetsujin]

Oh nooooooo
Overtime's still gonna happen!

 

[SacTownKid]

Oh nooooooo
Overtime's still gonna happen!

Go for the win Silas!

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Combined points:
First quarter - 67
Second quarter - 71
Third quarter - 69
Fourth quarter - 25 (with 24 seconds to go)

 

[Tetsujin]

KPJ remembered they're tanking

 

[The_Jamal]

DDV DEFENSE!!

Lmao

 

[Sluggah]

Not sure DDV and Davion in the backcourt are going to be giving up many 4th quarter leads against scrub teams.

 

[est.1999]

S***

 

[SLAB]

Freakin stupid. Try so dang hard to barely beat a team actively doing everything possible to lose.

 

[Tetsujin]

We've only scored 13 points all quarter so at a certain point, you just have to give to up to the Rockets for tanking harder than us lmao

 

[Tetsujin]

OVERTIME HERE WE COME!!!!

 

[Tetsujin]

Jalen Green is going to be good but the Rockets still shoulda went with Mobley.

Barnes and holiday need to be sat the rest of the year . Davion and Damian can play but **** what are we doing playing Barnes and holiday for ?

We still need 8 active players?

 

[White_Chocolate]

We still need 8 active players?

G league ? Queta?

 

[SacTownKid]

Silas shows his cards now. If he puts Mathews on the inbound we know he's tanking.

 

[Tetsujin]

G league ? Queta?

You can't just call up G-League guys when there aren't open roster spots available.

Queta should be playing but he also doesn't play the same position as Barnes or Holiday.

Barnes and holiday need to be sat the rest of the year . Davion and Damian can play but **** what are we doing playing Barnes and holiday for ?

Holiday if anything should be getting 39 minutes if we're trying to tank. He's pretty easily been the Kings worst player

fair to the first point. To the second point; Why does it matter at this stage ?

 

[Tetsujin]

LOL Davion absolutely smothers KPJ on defense to close the game.

 

[captain bill]

[The_Jamal]

That was insane defense by Mitchell holy.
