[Game] Kings @ Spurs - 3/8/17 - 5:30PT/8:30ET

Anyone else feel that given the opportunity to play at the beginning of the season, Skal could have been ROY?

Hield isn't shy is he?

Such a refreshing difference from the Benny Mac we saw so often.

considering Embiid only played 31 games and the rest of the draft class is very underwhelming, I don't see why not.

I think the DL has helped Skal a lot. I'm glad he played in the DL, and we're bringing him in slowly.

He's just so confident... i love it.

 

[SLAB]

I guess counting the Spurs out after and quarter and a half was a bad idea.

Fun while it lasted. That block skal had literally took that arenas breath away lol.

 

[VF21]

I'll take a 15-point lead over the Spurs at the end of the first half. Can we just go home now?

The more I see of Skal, the more I'm convinced Joerger knows exactly what he's doing. That kid is building a solid foundation that will reap benefits for years, not to mention confidence and trust. I may fault Vlade for a lot of things, but I certainly do not fault him for drafting Skal. What an incredible young man.

I think now that Embiid is out he or Hield could've won it. They've both looked good in limited time. But who knows. Dario Saric has also been a freaking tear lately.

Man Buddy's shot is dialed in, impressive for a rookie, a lot of the great shooters struggle their first one or two seasons to acclimate to shooting at the NBA speed. Cant wait to see how he looks in year two and three.

I'm sure Grant mentioned it (I have my TV on mute) but the only downside so far is he tends to get a little sloppy with the ball. Looks like rookie brain farts, so I'm sure he'll adjust.

 

[VF21]

Oh yeah...I just remembered why playing the Spurs always gives me indigestion.

 

[SLAB]

I still never expect a Tyreke jumper to actually go through the hoop.

Pace has been in favor of Kings all game, now the officials are blowing their whistle practically every play. Slowing it down, favors Spurs

 

[VF21]

Great play by the Kings. LOVE seeing them play defense like they know each other.

 

[SLAB]

Man, I wish Kosta would have channeled his inner Boogie and gone coast to coast there.

He continually mentions it.. he's an annoyance

Let a rookie be a rookie. Buddy putting it on the floor should be encouraged

 

[VF21]

Damn it. Those guys in the white jerseys just remembered who they are.

 

[Kingz19]

Needs more Skal

 

[Kingz19]

Right on cue

 

[SLAB]

Oh boy...

 

[VF21]

And we're seeing the difference between a young team and an experienced team. Kids need to take a deep breath and get back to playing their game. They've let the Spurs get into their heads...

 

[Kingz19]

Skal is going to be legit barring injury or the org blowing it. That's a tall order, I know

 

[SLAB]

Needs more Skal

I don't think he's long for this game. Joerger's gonna Joerger and go to his more trusted and established options.

I do hope he gives him a chance though. It's a learning experience:

 

[SLAB]

Grant losing his mind over Skal. Lol

We kind of have a tradition around here. We don't use the "I" word in talking about one of our Kings.

 

[VF21]

Kings showing a lot of poise right now...and as I say that, Skal shows a lack of concentration.
