[Game] Kings v. Bucks - 3/22/17 - 7:30PT/10:30ET

[VF21]

Bango - The Bucks' official mascot is Bango. The word "Bango" was originally coined by Eddie Doucette, the longtime play-by-play announcer for the Bucks. Doucette used the word whenever a Bucks player connected on a long-range basket. It was often used for sharpshooter Jon McGlocklin. When it came time for the Bucks to choose a name for their new mascot, the name "Bango" won the contest. (from Wikipedia)

The Bucks (34-35) are in a tight race in the East for the playoffs. They're gonna want this game.

The Kings (27-43) are in a tight race to secure the best possible position for the coming draft. Accoring to CBS injuries, we have 4 players designated as game time decisions: Malachi, Afflalo, Evans, and McLemore. Still haven't heard anything about the personal reasons for Afflalo, but McLemore is a proud new daddy. (Welcome to the world, baby Teagan.)

Heart, hustle, energy and enthusiasm. Still the same four keys I'm watching for every time the Kings take the court.

At this point I feel like lins just help Philly.

So go Kings!!!!

 

[KestrelKing]

Philly could win the lottery. We need wosses. Even if we swap we still are one pick better than if we dont, unless we win the lottery in which case, kangz!

??? A "woss" is a win that is really a loss for lottery purposes. How could we possibly need those? A "lin" is a loss that is really a win for lottery purposes, which is what I think you must have meant.

Bucks, you may have a Greek Freak.... but we have a Haitian Sensation!!!




(And also our own Greek Freak.)

Wows, Lin, whatcha call it, for tomorrow night let's just beat the pants off the Bucks. I'll be there sitting in sears like I will have next year,so I'm ready to see great things happen and they will for me. At the end o,f the season I will read the paper and listen to Grant and find out if we get any picks or not and I will live with the results. I feel bad for Vlade because he will worry about where we wind up. Go Kings, BTB (beat the Bucks)!

If i'm not mistaken, Skal got his first playing time of the season vs the Bucks earlier this year and looked completely lost. What a difference a year makes

 

[Kingsfan23]

Hope Malachi is back

 

[SLAB]

Hope Malachi is back

Apparently James Ham said it would be another week or two following the Spurs game. (Read that on Rotoworld)

We'll see who's got the better info between him and Grant "He'll be back Wednesday" Napear.

Coach was on Grant's show and said another week.

That's a shame. Best to not rush it and risk greater long-term though.

 

[Nightfall]

Great ! My 2 favorite teams in one match (if it wasn't at 3:30am it would have been perfect , anyway I will probably won't miss it live, alarm set since I have Thursday off work ).
I really hope to see a lot of PapaG, but I wish for the Bucks to win as they need it more, to stay on Play Off course.
However if you like stats, things are not so bright for the Bucks:
The Bucks are 0-8 this season during the second game, of a back-to-back, against a team who rest the previous day !
Hopefully it will be a good game to watch !

Coach was on Grant's show and said another week.

UGH!

 

[kingdivac]

Go Kings....LOSE!
"In this case, bad dreams would be more helpful".

 

[Nightfall]

I remember that PapaG scored his first NBA dunk against the Bucks. Watch closely Giannis on the bench who tries to contain himself from celebrating:

 

[Kingsfan23]

UGH!

Yes, that sucks. I want the full compliment of youth. Buddy/Malachi on the wings. I want to see how Malachi fares at SF too

Kings will rest Kosta Koufos and Ty Lawson tonight vs Milwaukee.

 

[The_Jamal]

Another really good test for Papa tonight. Will run into a lot of the very physical and skilled Greg Monroe.

Good move. Keep our stars fresh for the post season.





I keed, I keed..... looking forward to more from Papapocalypse!

 

[VF21]

Some guy standing behind Koz, Doug and James Ham has been holding up a sign for the entire pre-game show. Ham finally turned around and saw it...and cracked up. What's it say?

"Warriors blew a 3-1 lead"... Some things just never get old.

 

[Kingsfan23]

Really like Buddy spreading that stat line - 5 rebounds and 5 assists, most importantly, last game

 

[Kingsfan23]

And if Tolliver is in this starting lineup..

Kings starters: Collison, Hield, Afflalo, Skal, WCS MIL: Brogdon, Snell, Middleton, Giannis, Maker

 

[gunks]

Oh gross....

..... Hawes...

 

[Tetsujin]

Skal is, uh, not too hot at defensive rotations.

 

[SLAB]

Skal can't guard Giannis. Stick WCS on him.

 

[VF21]

Kings looking a little too lackadaisical out there. Need FOCUS!

 

[Kingsfan23]

Is WCS losing Maker?

 

[SLAB]

Yeah... this is just not fair right now.
