[Game] Kings v. Jazz - Wednesday, Jan. 17 - 7 PT

[SacTownKid]

Hey, Fox, Buddy, and Bogdan sighting!

 

[chief bromden]

Ahhhhh Bogdan, a breath of fresh air

 

[SacTownKid]

A reminder that the Kings worked out Donovan Mitchell twice. Another "what if" in Kings draft history.

Well, I don't know about the what if, but I know what would. The Kings don't run pick and roll so goodbye all those chances for Mitchell to look good.

 

[HndsmCelt]

As ugly as that was, and it was hideous it got slightly less disgusting once Zebo sat. Sad commentary that the offense was more smooth in the rebounding significantly better once Koufos entered the game. But still come on coach put papaji out there let him show you what he's got or what we lose by 20?

 

[jcwkings]

Is Bogi the only player on the Kings with even slightly above average basketball IQ? Sometimes I really wonder.

 

[chief bromden]

Soooo, what are the odds that Malachi and Jackson are on the bench for the whole second half?

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Down 15? I would say the odds are low.

 

[John Galt]

I wonder if Joerger is sandbagging - hoping to get fired and just collect money like Karl. Hard not to wonder. Product is a disgrace and it is his doing.

And Vlade has to account for Hill/ZBo contracts.

 

[John Galt]

Bogi Willie Fox. Developing those guys is ALL that matters. And ZBo/Hill add nothing to that effort

 

[Joshoua]

Omg Bogdan is a monster

 

[Gliesian]

All hail Bogie the annoited one

 

[Kingz19]

Bogdan is a stud.

If Skal and Papa G pan out even on a role player level that Criss trade is a heist.

Just like how we worked out BOTH starting guards in Portland (twice?) and the currently injured star for the Spurs

 

[SacTownKid]

So bizarre. Buddy make a nice shot, then out immediately. It's crazy how many times we've seen that this year.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Well it looks like there may be an opening as a sound engineer for the broadcast team, so that happened...

 

[Joshoua]

Already is even without them.

Joerger has to go man we are so ****ing outdated. Don’t take 3s, don’t defend 3s, and this fool plays 2 bigs at once for what

 

[SacTownKid]

Remember, this is an 8 year pro. I swear that Grant and Jerry think he's some 18 year old kid. Nope. He's going to be 26 come the summer.

It sucks, but I get why we passed on him. We have Buddy and Bogs... Late lotto, you're gonna pick for fit.

Just the fact that we worked him out twice shows me that we were mad tempted, for what it's worth.

I'd way rather have Donovan than Buddy, don't me wrong. And it's definitely a "what if".... I just feel like this draft miss actually makes sense in a sad, sad way.

I don’t think WCS has proven he can man the paint yet if you mean where does he get the notion to play him at the 4 defensively

 

[jcwkings]

Willie is the king of running up his point total in garbagetime.

who knows if Mitchell would even be good under Joerger though.

What if they would have taken Lauri Maerkanen and Donovan Mitchell 5/10? Both guys look like they will be stars in this league.

Mitchell
Bogi
?
Maerkanen
Willie

Thats a pretty damn good core if you ask me with 2018 pick to potentially fill the SF of the future role.

Willie was the least of our problems tonight.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Oh look they found Papa G somewhere out on the end of the bench

 

[jcwkings]

Willie was the least of our problems tonight.

I agree, just something I have noticed with him.

 

[SLAB]

PapaG, you can't stop him you can just hope to contain him!

 

[Kingsfan23]

I agree, just something I have noticed with him.

He doesn’t impact games with his will yet

 

[SacTownKid]

Interesting the Kings going "young" meant Hill got the 2nd highest minute total he's gotten all year. Although I will say it was nice to see him get a chance to be a focal point and showed he's still in there somewhere.

 

[biltalent]

Things to look forward to:

- Kings are now tied for the worst record of the league. Zbo is the ultimate tank weapon. Joerger is going to play him.
- Willie and Bogi again with great games
- Papa's body looks really good

Things to get pessimistic about:

- Zbo will probably be on the team next year when Kings try to be good

 

[SacTownKid]

who knows if Mitchell would even be good under Joerger though.

That's the thing. They are featuring Mitchell in pick and roll.
