[Game] Kings vs Cavaliers, 1/10/2022 7pm PT/10pm ET

[KainLear]

Not with the Kangz Mang. We win at the worst times

You might've spoken it into existence...

 

[Woot!]

First time Kings have played w/heart in about 5 games.

 

[dude12]

Queta is fun to watch

 

[The_Jamal]

QUETA PnR AGAIN. Draws the foul vs Mobley

QUETA PnR AGAIN. Draws the foul vs Mobley

Would have been nice if he finished it

 

[Sluggah]

We just won a 3rd quarter. Weird.

 

[The_Jamal]

I mean, I don't think we're going to win this game, but I appreciate the bounce back effort the Kings have had in general. Cavs absolutely mopped the floor with them in the last match-up and we're at least not letting that happen again.

 

[Groovygreg]

The Kings have something with Queta - an effective, role-playing big at the least. Potentially more if he expands and refines his game.

 

[hrdboild]

Alright you shook the dreaded third quarter ghost off your shoulders for the night at least, now it's time to bring it home boys!

 

[KainLear]

Was that a step-back 3 from Metu?

 

[Groovygreg]

Was that a step-back 3 from Metu?

Yup…and a miss at that.

 

[Woot!]

We KNOW the Kings aren't very good. We KNOW a win, if it happens, means little in itself. We KNOW they may well follow this game w/another clunker. Or five.

But, maaaan, for those of us who insist on watching, it sure is nice to see them play hard, amirite? Nice to see Queta showing out a little bit. Nice to see Len throwing his weight around some. Nice to see HB show a pulse and not just stand in the damn corner all game (even as the misses some shots you wanna see him hit).

Most of us just don't ask for *that* much.

According to some who knows more of his training, he got soft hands and could potentially be more face-up than back-down as a C.

 

[KainLear]

Sooner I can stop watching Buddy the happier I will be.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Yup…and a miss at that.

The thing is he had a wide-open three to start, then stepped in at the defender to do the stepback for some reason.

 

[hrdboild]

One of the differences tonight is that we're throwing the ball inside and scoring in the paint and as a result guys are starting to actually get some open jumpers for a change.

 

[Letsgokings13]

Let's win this for the parlay I have in place. Please.

 

[Groovygreg]

‘Rese!

It’ll look better in an NFT.

 

[Woot!]

Once he hits a few in a row, it's all about jacking.

Nice pun

 

[HndsmCelt]

I love the hustle!

 

[KainLear]

This is it. Look.

Not a fan of getting rid of Fox myself, but soon as Ty is the sole ballhandler/decision maker on the floor, he lights up and ignite the team too.

 

[Groovygreg]

Fox has been on the bench for a bit now.

 

[hrdboild]

Wow, Jarrett Allen just beat 4 Kings to that rebound. The lack of rebounding on this team is killing me.

 

[hrdboild]

Please sub out Len and Metu. Don't wait until we're down by 10.

 

[Woot!]

Wow, Jarrett Allen just beat 4 Kings to that rebound. The lack of rebounding on this team is killing me.

They're doing alright. 6'11", 7'0", 7'0" across the starting front line - Cleveland's damn tough on that front.

 

[SacTownKid]

Allen and Mobley are going to be a crazy defensive combo when the Cavs give up this 2 PF frontline crap.

 

[gunks]

We just won a 3rd quarter. Weird.

Vivek must have given his inspirational “Play-in first, championship second, it’s post season 3.0” speech in the locker room at the half.

*shakas*

Cavs are an impact wing away from having a championship caliber core. Mobley-Allen-Garland is already so so good. I actually wouldn't mind them signing Rubio long-term either and putting him at the 2. His defense would hold up and he complimented the bigs and Garlands shooting so nicely.
