[Game] Kings v. Magic - Monday, Jan. 13 - 7PT/10ET

[VF21]

Note: The game thread has been getting a bit out of control lately. Today we will be much more proactive about keeping excessive negativity, including scapegoating, out of the game thread. Posts deemed to violate rule #1 ("Don't be a jerk") will be deleted. Repeat offenses will earn a game thread ban for the day. Thanks for keeping the game thread clean!

Thanks, Capt. As someone who has been guilty at times of "scapegoating", I think this is definitely the right approach.

GO KINGS!!!

P.S. My best friend is there tonight with his son. Row FF, Section 101. It's the boy's first game - so come on, Kings. Win for Payton!!!

Bjelli on Fire!

Bjelli on Fire!

We didn't even get to see the last one!

 

[VF21]

This is fun.

 

[Sluggah]

the team seems fired up. always nice

 

[steelevt]

Just got to keep it going and not relax and go on those scoreless droughts

 

[Tetsujin]

De'Aaron's been more consistent on the defensive end in the new year.

 

[VF21]

Word from G1C: The kid is now officially hooked.

 

[Tetsujin]

We didn't even get to see the last one!

We got nice footage of Vuc hitting a three that someone shot on what looked on an iPhone instead.

 

[Tetsujin]

I don't think Buddy touched him

 

[Kingster]

Looks like nobody can stop Bjelica.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

I don't think Buddy touched him

Definitely got the arm, but it looked like Fournier leaned in to create the contact.

 

[steelevt]

Seems every game we foul on a 3 point shot.

 

[VF21]

Totally agree with Jerry. If the offensive player leans in, no foul.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

And Bagley is back!

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Fox 2-2 from deep, nothing but net both times.

 

[Tetsujin]

Wasn't the only reason Fultz went number the fact that he was a better shooter than De'Aaron?

 

[steelevt]

So what’s the bjelli version of FIBA Bogie?

 

[Capt. Factorial]

And Justin James is the #1 cheerleader as always...

October Bjeli

 

[burekijogurt]

that was all ball that "foul"

 

[Capt. Factorial]

I'm not sure why Bagley went with "uncooked hot dog" for the color of his shoes.

 

[Kingster]

Still way too much dribbling for this team, not enough D.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

We got hurt by good shots just rimming out there at the end of the quarter. Lost at least six points on easy shots that should have fallen.

 

[Kingster]

The way this going, I want to see some Yogi and JJ. This ain't cutting it.

You guys see his 30 point game in stockton? Kid has potential. Very explosive and under control. Plus he's already a top notch cheerleader.

 

[kb02]

33 points in one quarter must be the most points scored by the Magic this year. They are like the lowest scoring team in the league this year.

JJ in

 

[steelevt]

I’m getting sick of giving up a layup for a 3

 

[Capt. Factorial]

JJ in

And making his presence known early
