Keegan got taken out of the game before he could get his tenth rebound. Has to settle for a paltry 20-9 night.

he's a bust who cares.

Memphis has 6 points in 6 and a half minutes in this fourth quarter

Wow! Only 10 in the entire fourth. A lot of it was momentum, more of it was defense.

No longer hate the Bagley pick because we were able to trade him for Lyles.

Everyone underestimated Monk's playmaking skills...

He really learned a lot playing with LeBron James and Anthony Davis.

 

[iowamcnabb]

11 steals and none were by our two best defenders. Really nice effort at the end. So we can play defense

 

[kingsboi]

Kings definitely waited until the fourth to just go full assault mode on defense. Congrats to Trey for the DPOG bling bling

Honestly, it looks like Len is just standing there and Lofton just runs right into him hard.

I like to say if Bagley had Keegan's family and half his heart but hell if he just could put forth the effort Lyles does. So much wasted potential. Lucky for him Detroit is at least partially committed to him for a few more years so he'll keep getting chances.

Marvin is going to use some of his earnings to record studio time just like Dame Dolla & Ron Ron

K9 having trouble finding his hard hat prop.

Perk on the bandwagon now

Speaking of Keegan, I'd say McNair nailing every 1st round pick also takes some of the sting off this franchises last decade and a half of awful drafting!

Our rook is going full summer league on 'em lately. Love to see the game slowing down for him. And apparently Brown just has to tell him to do something and it immediately translates? He's been a legit double double threat lately!

NBA guys don’t know anything about the NBA I guess

 

[KainLear]

The mistake of drafting the wrong Kentucky big man back in 2015 has been rectified.

 

[Ozymandias]

do you think he has any chance to stick in the NBA even if he loses a whole bunch of pounds?

his game is very well suited for putting up 20 and 10 in the g-league, so he should have plenty of opportunity. I'm not even sure he needs to lose much weight tbh. We're not talking about a starter here, he's a backup at best / 3rd stringer. anti-smallball specialist at the 5 is really his bread and butter.

I clearly need a remedial physics lesson.

 

[Kingz19]

I’m afraid Mike is going to tell Richaun he’s never heard of him

 

[iowamcnabb]

Fox and Sabonis with 14 turnovers and we win. That probably has never happened

I know he’s not Kenny Lofton’s son but he sure is built like a baseball player who figured out you don’t need to do cardio to get a big fat contract

perhaps if the G league and 3rd string opportunities fail he can always take a stab at overseas ball

KD & CJ recognize

god I just looked it up and he signed with Houston but is on their G-League team? jesus. another guy with all the tools except the ones between the ears.

 

[iowamcnabb]

KD & CJ recognize

im referring to former players. A lot of them seem pretty clueless

 

[The Effort Police]

No longer hate the Bagley pick because we were able to trade him for Lyles.

Somebody actually traded for him and gave him a 3 year, 37 million dollar extension.

Without being held at gunpoint, no less!

 

[Caccia]

As a special bonus, the Kings gained a game on Memphis for second place in the Western Conference, now only 3 1/2 games behind.
