[VF21]

I hate these Texas road trips.

GO KINGS!

Giles has been ruled out again. Ugh.

Giles has been ruled out again. Ugh.

I doubt he plays again this season. They call it a thigh contusion, but if you look at the play his knee wiggles. Why take the risk...

Yea, I'm gonna say for like the 10th time that I'd like to see Swanigan get some burn, but he'll probably be sitting in a suit per usual.

 

[Kingster]

Bummer about Giles. I sure would like to see this team play Houston like it means something. Some guys have mailed it in ever since they knew they were out of the playoffs.

 

[ppine]

Harden really is the most ball dominant player in decades. He plays iso ball and gets away with it. It is a crummy way to run a team. Chris Paul has way too much attitude. I don't think Houston's style of play is good for the game. It would be very hard to play on that team.

I mean from a technical standpoint it would actually be the easiest team to play on because all you need to do is stand behind the 3pt line or near the basket waiting for Harden to jack up a contested fadeaway 3. There's no real strategy to worry about. Don't need to cut, don't need to run any plays... you just get to relax on the outside looking in. Totally chill atmosphere.

 

[SLAB]

With the team being not very good again and no Giles I have so little desire to watch.

Dang... better safe than sorry with HG, but to lose the last 15 games because of a thigh bruise? That’s rough.

Not expecting a win, but who knows, this team gets up for good teams. We'll probably know by midway through the 2nd if this game is gonna be competitive or not.

I'll tune in for Fox and Bagley!

Go Kings!

 

[Livinthedream]

We don't get up for Houston though.

 

[VF21]

Willie got braids.

 

[KingKong]

Capela the Kings killer.

 

[fansinceday1]

I know harden is unbelievable but this Houston brand of basketball is just unwatchable.
It’s funny watching the other Houston players when harden is just dribbling around then shooting.

 

[gunks]

Harden and Clint gonna bury us this afternoon.

Buddy is Buckets Mode today though, so that's good at least!

 

[KingKong]

There we go!

Well, it works for em, but I totally agree!

Nevermind the fact that we're gonna watch Harden shoot 25+ FTs today...

 

[krylia sovetov]

bogdan knows that this match is broadcasted back home, but in relatively normal time (11 pm), so...

 

[Hoovtrain]

I get that Houston is great and goes on rolls but how does a team continually just blow double digit leads so quickly?

 

[gunks]

I dig Dave layin into the refs for not calling **** when Fox gets hammered inside.

Meanwhile, Harden has already taken how many FTs?

 

[VF21]

This game is nearly unwatchable at this point. Not because of the players, but because of the obvious favoritism by the officials. If anything ever kills the NBA, it will be the kind of crap we're seeing today.

 

[Tetsujin]

If you like shooting guards shredding each other with little defense being played, this is the game for you.

 

[KingKong]

I really can't understand why Fox can't get a whistle.

 

[VF21]

There's just no way the vast majority of players today can be happy with the sub-par officiating.

 

[KingKong]

Love seeing Bogi playing out of his mind.

Hard to play defense when you can’t breath on James Harden.

 

[VF21]

Win or lose, I am incredibly happy with the play I'm seeing from our Kings today.

 

[Hoovtrain]

I really can't understand why Fox can't get a whistle.

Don’t want to sound like a homer, but it’s egregious

 

[Hoovtrain]

It’s remarkable how harden always manages to get defenders on skates with that step back. Unreal

Harden is unique. I just wish the officials would treat him the same way they do everybody else. It's unnecessary IMHO for them to help pad his stats.
