[Game] Kings @ Trailblazers, 10/20/21, 7pm Pacific, 10pm Eastern

That’s a dirty push by Powell after Fox dusted him

 

[kingsboi]

good Buddy is showing up thus far

 

[Tetsujin]

CHAVANO BUCKETS

 

[Kingz19]

Fox leaving an imprint on this first half

 

[kingsboi]

Fox making easy work of whatever Blazer is in front of him

 

[Tetsujin]

CJ got absolutely blasted by Fox, pulls him down. Their only option is to play him dirty.

 

[kingsboi]

fun first half

 

[iowamcnabb]

Will this game get chippy? Not really the personalities for it but some accumulating hard fouls

 

[Tetsujin]

MOAR MOAR MOAR!!!

Kings lead 62-49 at half!

 

[Kingz19]

Excellent first half

 

[LoungeLizard]

Good half

 

[SacTownKid]

Last years top 3 in all of the NBA at one point net rating team looked good again.... Luke.

 

[dude12]

Fox dominating when he’s in

 

[kb02]

Kings look like the more talented team.

 

[Sluggah]

We’ve been sloppy. But there’s plenty to like.

 

[OffTheWallJamal]

Great first half!!!

Now just need to come out sharp in the 3rd quarter, we all know what happens usually in the 3rd quarter for Kings haha

 

[SLAB]

Man. It felt like they scored nearly every possession the last few minutes yet we’re up 13 and they only have 49.

Love it

 

[Sac.Kings]

I’m liking what I’m seeing. I’m liking the Fox vs Dame tit for tat trash talk but let’s not do this too much. Dame is Dame and I don’t want him to drop 40 by the end of the game haha

 

[iowamcnabb]

At least for a half we were simply the better team. Solid defensive effort for the most part. Don’t love the offense so far but we are getting it done

 

[Woot!]

45-37.

Maybe better.

And no one more than 16.5 minutes in that half. With their depth - 9-man rotation this game and could go deeper - no reason why they can't bring this energy on a consistent basis.

 

[SacTownKid]

I won't at all be surprised if at one point this season Monte is smooching some serious Buddy booty. "Oh c'mon Buddy, we were kidding around. We didn't try to trade you those 4 times or whatever". haha.

 

[Das_Boot]

Did Portland lose points?

There was something wonky going on with the score, felt like we went from 7 up to 10 up right before Barnes shot a couple free throws.

 

[The_Jamal]

Really, really good.

Offense really didn't play/shoot well and still put up 62. Defense is miles better, there's still defensive lapses, but the effort from the top down is significantly improved over last season

 

[SacTownKid]

I’m liking what I’m seeing. I’m liking the Fox vs Dame tit for tat trash talk but let’s not do this too much. Dame is Dame and I don’t want him to drop 40 by the end of the game haha

Next half they need to let Holmes do more on that switch because you know Nurk and Zeller will be going headhunting next half.

At the same time, having Kuzma instead of Buddy really balances out this roster lol

Isn't that what we got TT and Len for?

 

[SacTownKid]

I shudder to think what Luke would to with both Kuz and Harkless at his disposal.

 

[macadocious]

We are up 13 and Hali and Mitchel haven’t scored…lol

 

[SacTownKid]

Isn't that what we got TT and Len for?

Yeah, if they try and take out Fox, answer back with Len or Tristan wiping out Dame. haha. 90's ball is truly back at that point. Get those Oakley vibes going.
