[Game] Kings vs. 76ers, 2/9/2021, 7pm PST, 10pm EST

Well, Sixers were +20 on the boards and +17 at the free throw line

Kings couldn’t afford for the three ball to disappear and it did.
 
Well, the potential is there. Some roster improvement is needed long term on the wing, but overall the issue is not running what works until the wheels fall off. Fox is great but the iso spread became predictable and Rivers eventually landed the knock out blow to Luke by the end.
 
It’s probably a good thing to be pissed after a loss. But I’m not used to this feeling from my basketball team and it will take some getting used to. Probably. Assuming this isn’t all just a fluke. Which is still might be tbh

when a fanbase is so starved of winning and being relevant again as the Kings are, every little glimmer of hope and a bit of winning can take you to a high only for that high to completely make you feel empathy and not fall for it again so it's about finding a fine line in not getting too high on this team because as you mentioned, this may be just early season luck or whatever else you want to call it
 
Hey let me know if you like the Simmons intentional fould, this was similar to Adams earlier in the year?

I didn't like either one, don't think it cost us the game though.

It's not a fluke but they (LUKE) has to tighten up those late game play calls. You want to force Embiid up with middle pick and roll. Instead they spread iso'd and let him watch the ball and wait which allowed their wings to challenge shots from behind on drives.

At the same time, I am fairly certain that De'Aaron and Tyrese are not flukes so I don't anticipate the lows being as low as they have been in the past.
