Another night, another King punched in the face, another no-call.

‘Tell us about the time you were a ref in Indiana, Jerry!”

It's a pleasure listening to Doug Christie on the broadcasts. Dude really knows his basketball.

He’d really make a great coach in the league if that’s what he ever wanted to do.

I don’t know, I just can’t help but think that odd left field stint for Metu when the Kings were up 5 totally killed all the momentum.

 

[SacTownKid]

Interesting to see the general look and posture of the players since Walton tried to go old school coach and pull a power play on the sidelines. Hahaha. Not workable.

 

[hrdboild]

I don't know what got into Buddy tonight, but I hope whatever it is it sticks around for awhile. Not only is he money on those spot up jumpers again, but he looks down right competent as a ball handler and playmaker as well.

I mean it wasn't good, but in the 4:45 before he came in we were -13, so it's not like the fire was lit at the time.

Oh it killed the attitude. Made Hassan angry, then he got into his star rookie. Now he's left Bagley on the bench in crunch time again. We'll see if pride shows up but he might have just trashed his own get out of jail free card in record time. LOL.

 

[Kingz19]

Yikes, I think that’s the 4th TO for Ty

Hard to lay that all on Metu. He had one bad turnover but Portland was already rolling by the time he came into the game. Robinson was uncharacteristically passive tonight during that same stint. But the one play that stands out to me was seeing a series of beautiful passes move the ball around the horn only to wind up with a Corey Joseph spot up three. Blech.

 

[Iced Espresso]

I wonder if Nurkic ever thinks he fouled someone, if the ball eer goes out of bounds off him, if there is ever a clean block...

 

[Kingz19]

Haliburton has a Justin Jackson level floater

 

[SacTownKid]

C'mon guys, win for yourselves.

 

[SacTownKid]

Haliburton has a Justin Jackson level floater

And as a pick and roll player that can be darn near a go to move.

 

[Tetsujin]

C'mon guys, win for yourselves.

On the other hand, lose for a new coach

 

[SLAB]

Yikes, I think that’s the 4th TO for Ty

Trade him for Dennis Smith Jr

 

[Woot!]

My bad, folks. Since saying they were 16-24 from 3, they've gone 2-12.

I'm a dope.

 

[Kingz19]

I hate bad rebounding. It’s a bezerk button for me

 

[SacTownKid]

On the other hand, lose for a new coach

Honestly, it shouldn't take that at this point. All you need is your eyes to tell you exactly what's going on here. Monte had a great chance after those 2 games and wussed out.

 

[Kingz19]

Trade him for Dennis Smith Jr

We could get a package of Smith and Ntilikina if we act now

 

[SLAB]

I hate this loss more than a blowout.

 

[Tetsujin]

Ugh. Everyone but Fox went cold down the stretch.

 

[SactownShaq]

Buddy can’t ever hit a big 3 down the stretch

 

[Sluggah]

This one stings a bit.

 

[Tetsujin]

Buddy can’t ever hit a big 3 down the stretch

Uhhhhhhh

 

[pdxKingsFan]

This team frustrates the heck out of me at times but I want a top 5 draft pick and a new coach.

 

[OffTheWallJamal]

Buddy 1/8 in the 4th yikes

 

[Tetsujin]

I hate this loss more than a blowout.

On the other hand, the optics of only playing Bagley 19 minutes, randomly giving a two way player minutes in a close game, and getting into multiple arguments with players in a single game might finally get more momentum going in the “fire Luke” train

 

[OffTheWallJamal]

Buddy 1/8 in the 4th yikes

Make it 1/9.
