[Game] Kings v. Pelicans - Saturday, Jan. 4 - 7PT/10ET

[VF21]

GO KINGS!

As posted in the injury status thread, MB3 is out for tonight's game and Bogs is DOUBTFUL with right ankle soreness.

why does it seem we always have an injury when we have a "winnable" game?

I’ll actually be interested in New JJ’s minutes. I’ve seen him getting talked up around here, so let’s see if he really has something!

I want to see a lot of Justin James in this game. Give me some more athleticism and defense on this team to help Fox.

There will be a Giles to New JJ pass + finish, and everyone here will lose their minds.

Lmao that Ball shot.

 

[SLAB]

I want Ball to shoot all game long. Every trip down the floor.

 

[SacTownKid]

Another game, another small ball team annihilating the Kings traditional lineup. If you are deadset on playing big, how can you not get the ball into the post to Bjelica. You are allowing them to guard him with Redick. Wow.

 

[dude12]

Lackluster start again

 

[Kingster]

NO scores 17 points in 5 minutes? This D must improve. It doesn't help to have Bjelica guard Ingram. And of course their 2G is scoring, just like last game.

 

[VF21]

...sigh...

Put in JJ, please.

 

[jcwkings]

Wow this team is bad

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Time for Walton to call timeout and give everybody their Play-Like-You-Give-A-crap pills.

Or just smack each one of them upside the head.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Or just smack each one of them upside the head.

Would definitely be more satisfying.

 

[SacTownKid]

Gee, Kings go small, Kings don't suck. Who would have thought that! lol.

so far in the season i've seen only 2 passes completed to JJ for the oop on that play where he hands way outside of 3 line and runs to the basket and both where done by Bogdan. I remember him motioning to Joseph couple of times when Joseph decided it would be prudent not to throw it. Giles has the skill though...

 

[VF21]

Steal and assist for Giles. I can hear SLAB smiling.

 

[SLAB]

Giles screens, Giles hustles, Giles wins.

 

[SacTownKid]

Ariza and Barnes out there together is the difference maker. They make this team respectable on defense.

what is CoJo? Chopped Liver?

Which legitimately raises the question of whether the correct strategy in today's NBA is one big man only.

 

[MizzouKing]

I love our depth...if our first team isn't really awake yet, we have a whole 'nother team we can break the glass on!

 

[Sluggah]

Was that a new building in sac with the blue lights on top?

 

[MizzouKing]

(*Pelicans staff frantically looking through their binder to find out who this 'Harry Giles' is*)

 

[SacTownKid]

Nope, haha. They are the difference though. They played with Fox last game and the result was even better.
