[Game] Kings vs. Grizzlies, 2/14/21, 7pm PST, 10pm EST

[SLAB]

When Holmes is bad, Holmes is really really bad.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

These two are totally not the problem, but also you’re spot on in that Haliburton is the only future lead guard to worry about featuring.

That doesn't exactly sound like Tetsujin's position.

 

[dude12]

Another Center torching us

 

[Tetsujin]

Richaun apparently really doesn't want to be traded.

 

[iowamcnabb]

We need to play mad and get some energy. All the guys looked gassed again.

 

[Tetsujin]

I really question the wisdom of having our best player watch while our journeyman center and third guy play a two man game for some reason but, heck, I'm not the son of a hall of famer some what do I know?

 

[SLAB]

I hate that stupid side-cam.

 

[Livinthedream]

Despite the advance metrics saying otherwise, maybe Marvin was more important to our defense than we thought

Marvin and Holmes cover for each others weaknesses. Holmes is on his own now against other teams big lineups.

 

[SacTownKid]

Now the refs are calling straight trash. That was a good job by Barnes on the switch.

 

[Livinthedream]

Flop

Speaking of covering each other weakenesses, heres Bjeli and Whiteside to try to out-slow each other and completely nullify any defensive presence the other might have.

 

[Tetsujin]

GO UNDER THE SCREEN COJO JA IS ONLY A 28 PERCENT SHOOTER FROM THREE FOR THE YEAR

 

[Iced Espresso]

Did Bjelica just get bullied in the paint by a guy 6 inches shorter and 50 lbs lighter?

 

[SacTownKid]

Walton should consider going full death mode ball with Fox/Hali/Buddy/Jeffries/Barnes. Barnes did better than anyone on JV that last play. He takes a good chunk of time to get set up and by the time he gets the ball Barnes can push him out a little and force him into a quick shot.

Not that it's really mattered tonight because everyone aside from Fox has sucked on D tonight, but we're seeing why Bjeli was glued to the bench for a month.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

I hate sports

We need to be careful before we destroy all his trade value.

In a battle between innovating or going back to the well, Luke will always choose the latter.

 

[Iced Espresso]

Down 19, why not throw Guy in the game over Cojo?

 

[Kingz19]

Total relapse on defense.

 

[TheRoyalist]

Curious that the hype lines talk about musing Fox last week, missing Bagley this

That doesn't exactly sound like Tetsujin's position.

I thought I would salvage the team’s two best supporting guys (Barnes makes a lot per year but is smart and like Holmes has a consistent skill set/role) from the post’s premise. And I like Fox, but him getting the ball enough is not a problem area this season lol.

 

[Iced Espresso]

That's weak ref, back in the day you could arm bar a guy in the chest....

 

[Tetsujin]

Goodbye Bjeli's trade value

 

[kingsboi]

so back to back beat downs by sub .500 teams....sounds like the Kings we all have come to know and love

 

[SLAB]

Guys.

We might see if Jabari Parker actually exists or not pretty soon.

This is big.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Off topic for this game thread but it looks like Harry Giles got injured....not sure what It is but it was non-contact and he was reaching towards his Achilles.

O no

 

[SacTownKid]

2 plays in a row, Fox up top looking for cutters. SMH. I thought maybe there was a way but there isn't. History will be proven right yet again, transition coaches find a way to the exit sign. It's just nature.

 

[dude12]

Put in Metu and Guy and James at this point and put Jabari in

What you didn't like the Whiteside screen for the awkward Bjelica curl?

 

[SLAB]

Tillman don’t look like a rookie, age wise.
