Grizz on a back to back. uh oh

 

[iowamcnabb]

Grizz on a back to back. uh oh

they’ve also lost 2 in a row. Going to be a tough one to pull off for us but just gotta go get it

Does anyone else find they are not receiving notifications on all responses lately? It’s been happening the last couple weeks

 

[dude12]

Hate 7:30 starts

 

[ESP47]

Out muscled by the Sixers so they're definitely going to get out muscled by the Grizz. Someone needs to buy Shannon Sharpe some front row seats for this one. Need all the help we can get.

 

[sauce-26]

Is it possible for someone on the kings to shut desmond bane down?

I've been receiving everything. Maybe you just have to delete your browser history and/or cookies???? Log out, and then log back in, perhaps???

 

[QWERTYLICIOUS]

Tonight, I have one request for our beloved Kings...

Beam The Effing Light!!!



Just. Effing. Beam. It.

 

[KF8]

Lets not let Jason Momoa outrebound us.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Is this really a 7:30 start in Sacramento? Could be wrong, but hasn't every later start been 7:00 this season in Sac?

Yeah, it's been going on for some time. The word is that there is a glitch that hasn't been addressed yet.

Yes, our only 7:30 starts this year have been at the Lakers. I'm going to guess tonight's is because we are the second game on NBATV.

 

[gunks]

I hate the Griz so much.

It's that combination of ref favoritism and an extremely unlikable, **** head of a star player that harkens back to the Lakers of old.

Hope we destroy them, but they are coming off a b2b so I guess this is a schedule loss for us?

It’s on live national tv tonight

 

[Capt. Factorial]

It’s on live national tv tonight

Well, there appears to be a bit of a definitional argument about what constitutes a "national TV" game. It does seem to me that NBATV qualifies as "national TV", but if one wants to complain about the Kings not having many "national TV" games, then NBATV doesn't count, only TNT, ESPN, and ABC count.

 

[Kingster]

The Kings have to sacrifice their bodies and play as tough and physical as possible in order to have a chance of winning.

 

[Folsomkingsfan]

Is it possible for someone on the kings to shut desmond bane down?

Probably not considering not playing defense is a part of our game plan it seems

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Is it possible for someone on the kings to shut desmond bane down?

I'd consider using Okpala on him for a couple stretches. Especially if he starts out hot

 

[Woot!]

Every now and then the absurdity of our aliases just *hits* me.

Capt. Factorial? Qwertylicious?! gunks?!!

WOOT?!!!

"Soooo, yeah, like I was saying to Capt. Factorial..."



I'm so appreciative, y'all.

I would have never believed you if you told me this would be tweeted about the Kings 3 months ago. Wow

I'd much rather be absurd (and, thus, memorable), than not absurd (and, thus, just another member)...

PS: Don't hate! Appreciate!

Picturing Fox and Domas bleeding all over after no-calls as Morant flails his way to his 15th and 16th FT attempts

You're memorable, QWERTY! (Can I call you QWERTY?)

 

[QWERTYLICIOUS]

You can call me whatever the heck you want...

 

[macadocious]

I had a friend in HS, actually, he posted here on occasion years ago, that wanted to name is firstborn Lucious Cassius LASTNAME. So he could call his kid Lucious Cash.


Carry on.

I was gonna say the same thing as @Capt. Factorial...I don't consider NBATV to be "national TV" either.

I feel like that's not exactly what Capt. Factorial said.

NBA TV games are basically free league pass games, aren't they? They just pick one of the local feeds and offer it up. I think that getting a national broadcast crew eyes on a team is a big part of an ESPN or TNT game.

Also TNT and ESPN (and ABC) are part of basic cable while NBA TV is not. Basically nobody is going to watch the game by accident.

But it is nice for people who don't sub to league pass but are fans of out of market teams.

Not exactly. Or at least, they haven't always been like that. But ever since Turner decided that they can cut costs by just airing the regional broadcast, rather than pay a separate broadcast crew, it's certainly had that vibe; it probably didn't help that their attempts to provide in-house coverage (e.g., "Players Only") was very poorly received nationally.

IMO, as far as NBA basketball is concerned, any game that you can watch out of market without having to be subscribed to NBA League Pass qualifies as a "nationally televised" game, but mileage obviously varies.
