[Game] Kings v. Mavericks - March 27, 2018 - 7 PT

[VF21]

Seems like I just wrote an intro for this game.

I've been outside most of the day so I don't know the last-minute injury reports, roster changes, etc. And you know what? I don't care. It's an incredibly beautiful day up here in the forest. The air smells crisp and clean. There are actually little sprout of green in my garden. Looks like my daffodils may be making their arrival any day now. Hard to believe that less than a week ago it was snow, thunder, lightning, hail and rain...

Anyway, enough of my blatherings.

Just a few more Kings games left to the season. I'm pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed watching our Kings, especially the kids. They're gonna be fun and I look forward to seeing how far they can go.

Tonight we get to see them against the Mavericks again. My dislike of both team and owner are well documented so I won't repeat them. I will simply say:

Go KINGS!!

no way do the Mavs allow the Kings to outtank them in this game....they will willingly and gladly hand the Kings the W, since the Kings need W's

 

[pshn80]

Gonna be there to see our Kings again and hoping both teams play well and hard and the Kings pull it out. Hope the league tank inspectors come to this game.

Kings will win so just enjoy it

Feel bad for Dirk at this stage of his career. He should not have to be playing on a tanking team

Looks like no delay after all. Tip off now.

 

[VF21]

So glad to see the Kings in pretty much anything other than the baby blues.

6-4 Mavs with 9:12 remaining

 

[VF21]

Early indications are that Dennis Smith Jr just might be having a very good night.

I like the baby blues - but only say 3-4 times a year. I'd rather see us wear the purple as much as possible.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Kings shots keep just barely missing.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Cold shooting and crap rebounding is dooming the Kings offese.

lmao bogie trying to out-dirk dirk

You know, I really want to think that we're going to have a good year next year and be on the rise, but if there's one thing I'm worried about going forward it's our rebounding.

 

[PurpleHaze]

I prefer to call the unis Powder Blue. Baby Blue sounds like just another Kings slight. Color fine with me.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

JJ with the really great hesitation move...but when you do it 70 feet from the basket it doesn't get you much.

Yeah I was wondering why he chose that spot to do it lol

MOD VOICE: If you want to find out about the protest that is affecting attendance, there are articles in the Kings News Feed forum that will clarify. Per long-standing KF policy, we are not discussing the issue. Thanks for understanding.

 

[VF21]

17-11 Mavs with 4 minutes left in the first quarter.

 

[HndsmCelt]

You know, I really want to think that we're going to have a good year next year and be on the rise, but if there's one thing I'm worried about going forward it's our rebounding.

So I really hope the coaching staff has Skal watch a lot of old Rodman footage. I think you really could rebound, in general if you can block shots you have the instinct to get to the ball, but he has to learn to get in position quicker like the Worm.

 

[VF21]

Good to see JaKarr Sampson on the court.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

I didn't see what happened to Smith - was he limping off?

 

[Capt. Factorial]

At this point, I'm actually really hoping that Kosta opts in this offseason. He could look really good for us next year.

 

[VF21]

Does it give away my age when I hear "Yogi Berra" every time Grant says "Yogi Ferrell"?

 

[HndsmCelt]

Me either. I have to wonder if that was hyper precautionary
