[Game] Kings @ Trailblazers - Wednesday, April 10 - 7:30PT/10:30ET

[Tetsujin]

He shoulda been a lottery pick... The two "unknown" kids who didnt play in college,, Simons and Mitchell Robinson, it always eluded me why they were projected and then were selected so low, they both have assimilated to the NBA nicely...


He's got 23 points in the first half..

Pretty sure Simons is why the Blazers seemed fine with trying to move McCollum at points during the year when it looked like they were falling out of the playoff race.

 

[Tetsujin]

Their imprint is top notch.

The only place Fultz has left an imprint has been a chair in the waiting room of the doctor's office.

Team isn’t far off. Just need a piece or two in FA this year, namely a C, and the team will be good.

It was just a nice pick for them cuz right away I'm like "Oh he gets to practice with Lillard and McCollum everyday --- thats like a dream scenario for that kid..." just a hand-picked, tailor-made type situation.. He has tools in the bag and some are pretty sharp..

I really do believe if he went to college this past year he'd be projected in the lottery right now of the 2019 draft.

He's legitimately the best guard from the HS class of 2018.... It's either him or Darius Garland who's going in the lottery this year for sure... So the blazers might have actually gotten quite a bargain..

Hey so we're gonna win 40-games!! cool!

Thank goodness for Fultz and his MIRACULOUS college season...


The tale of how De'Aaron fell into the Kings laps is one with a whole lot of foolishness involved.

 

[Ozymandias]

Not gonna lie I hope Simons drops 50 this game, but even more than that I'd like to see fox answer him with 40 and 20



I think the Blazers are gonna get MOPPED by the Jazz btw. Their days are numbered too.

And that is a tale I will love to hear for years.

Joerger sits starters for the second half? GOOD FOR MARVIN!!!

 

[SLAB]

Swanigan boxes out simply by existing.

 

[Ozymandias]

Skal got to the board but he had major position on Marvin and u can jsut see Marvin still almost circled around him in the blink of an eye to tap the ball....

 

[Ozymandias]

Swanigan needs to cut harder after he passes up that 3.... That turnover isnt on brewer.. It's like a wide reciever pulling up early on a route..

 

[SLAB]

Are Layman, Leonard, and Collins actually the same person?

 

[Ozymandias]

Marvin just took Skal to the basket going right dribbling right.. drew a foul..

 

[Tetsujin]

Watching Marvin dribble drive is like watching a bear attack a newborn baby fawn

 

[Tetsujin]

Are Layman, Leonard, and Collins actually the same person?

Imagine the added confusion when Stauskas was on the team as well.

 

[Tetsujin]

Swanigan is just really fun

 

[Ozymandias]

Simons beautiful dime he served that one up on a platter for Myers Leonard.

 

[Tetsujin]

Swanigan would be a really good screener regardless of girth

 

[VF21]

I'll be honest. For a big guy, Swanigan has skills I'm not used to seeing. He's got heart, hustle, energy, effort and focus! The kid is growing on me by the minute.

I'm glad u said focus cuz thats really what he gives u.... U don't shoot the % he did from 3 in college, while showcasing for all the scouts, without some serious focus and mental fortitude, it's not all mechanics, just doesnt work that way, there is some willpower being imposed there...

 

[Tetsujin]

What is Buddy doing, lol?

 

[VF21]

It has been a very long time since I have been able to just sit back and enjoy watching the game. Our Kings have accomplished SO much this season. It is, fellow fans, truly an incredible time to be a Kings fan...and we just started the journey.

I LOVE THIS TEAM!!!

 

[Ozymandias]

I hate to say it but the Trailblazers gameplan should pretty much jsut be get Yogi switched and then iso him.. That seems to be what they want to do..

 

[SLAB]

See what happens when you take SWANZILLA out?

 

[VF21]

He's making the most of all of his talents, including what appears to be incredible court vision and a very high BBIQ.

I wouldn't be against a 3 year 40-something million contract for Patrick Beverly this offseason.

 

[SLAB]

Superstar.
