[Game] Kings v. Thunder - Thursday, Feb. 22 - 7 PT

[biltalent]

With Koufos out, Zach starting and PapaG being waived, I'm expecting to see some Skal as the backup 5.

 

[allrightythen]

Wish Buddy was starting, but I imagine he'll see plenty of minutes with so many guys out.

Christie asked Joerger about him getting playing time on the radio today.

Joerger didn't sound too promising about it. It sounded like he pencils him in as a PF and said something to the effect that he will have to share time with some of the big guys. The pitch in his voice told me he's not planning on playing him very soon. He said he could see minutes later this season when he gets the system down. I wouldn't expect him to play much from the way Joerger sounded but we'll see.

Bruno's got to learn to fail before he can do it with the big boys!

You must not know Joerger very well. Be prepared for Buddy to get 21minutes

 

[biltalent]

Its 4 am here and I am ready to go!

Bummer that Fox is out but this should give us room to see what Bogdan can do coming of the rising stars performance. Also, Frank Mason will get a good look too.
With only 10 healthy bodies, either Skal and/or Bruno are going to need to play substantive minutes as well

Zach having to play Adams

Not a good start with this unit

 

[fansinceday1]

Let's see more zbo!!

I'll take the under on that.

 

[allrightythen]

Jackson should just shoot the short jumper. No need to take it at 2 guys.

 

[fansinceday1]

Boy OKC plays fast. Love their tempo.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Wow this is some abominable defense.

 

[allrightythen]

Heaven forbid we run someone off the 3pt line

 

[Kingsfan23]

The game is almost off mid way through the first at home.. I know this is a rebuild but need to do better than this

 

[fansinceday1]

If we're gonna play this bad I don't want any vets out there . Let the kids play this bad instead.

Yeah seriously it’s getting old.

Hahah so much for that. Joerger is staggering Zbo so now Zbo is the starting 5 and Backup 5. You can't make that **** up

 

[Jeremy Fraser]

All I care I care about at this point of the game is seeing some Bruno

 

[allrightythen]

We can't make a shot and we can't stop anybody. It's gonna be a looooonnnngggg night. I'm watching every minute of it though.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Well the Kings held them under 45 for the quarter...

 

[biltalent]

Zach is on pace for 40 minutes this game. Starting the second quarter as well.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Well there are signs of life!

 

[biltalent]

Wow, Frank Mason! Great hustle on D and then great set-up for Hield

 

[fansinceday1]

Zbo and Vince will bring home the win.

 

[allrightythen]

The dribble then shoot while falling out of bounds is my favorite Z-Bo play.

 

[VF21]

Skal looking good. And I hesitate to hit the "post" button on this, in fear it will trigger the "pull Skal" alarm in Joerger's brain.

 

[VF21]

Holy Skalola!

 

[biltalent]

Buddy and Skal bringing the Kings back. 49-40. Don't turn off Just yet

 

[VF21]

Dang ums. Skal looks like a man on a mission.

 

[fansinceday1]

Now........... leave skal in. Please don't pull him......

 

[fansinceday1]

Oh Jesus Christ are you kidding???
Why sit skal!?!?!?!?!?
