[Game] Kings vs. Heat, 2/18/21, 7pm PST, 10pm EST
- Thread starter Tetsujin
- Start date
League helped a lot with the scheduling here. Miami is in the middle of just a BRUTAL road trip west, played last night and got embarrassed after being stretched to OT of course... of course. Their four main guys averaged over 40 minutes last night lol. They've now lost 3 in a row. This is, however, the only winnable game for them on that entire trip besides the opening HOU win (tonight is Miami's fifth game in 8 days, Feb. 11-18, first and only b2b on this 12 day trip). They're mad, sure, but also just totally busted up. Looks like a nice gambling dilemma if folks are into that? No idea, but that's often the sole motivation for games being played at all besides any TV deal obligations it seems, in this year of no fan revenue.
A loss tonight is a coffin nail for Walton for sure, if the team is competently run toward progress.

I wonder if HB has been playing thru his for a while.
Addendum: "Barnes suffered a left foot strain against the Grizzlies on Sunday. He tried to play through the injury against the Nets on Monday, but is clearly being impacted by the injury." https://yhoo.it/3qDBBBu

I’m hoping Kayte was right after the last game when she said the King’s were just tired.
Lets hope they’re rested up for tonight.
I saw the Heat - Warriors game last night on ESPN (our Mark Jones did the broadcast with Mark Jackson). The Warriors came from behind to tie for OT, then Stef Curry got hot and Bazemore played great, and the Warriors won. A great game. Hope the Heat are tired for tonight!
Oh, and isn’t Mark Jones doing a great job. The Kings got a good one there.

I think Doug coined it but you already know that since you are play by play announcer Mark Jones 
last time we had a break we turned into at top ten defense. I expect the same tonight

True, but so have our KINGS. Remember the last time we faced MIA on a losing streak. They beat us. The only loss during the 8 game stretch.
Since we seem to give up so many three’s and bring out the best shooting efforts of our opponents I’m going to stick with the prediction and hope to be proved wrong.
Sad that I’m already resorting to reverse psychology and tempering expectations. Oh the the life of a fan.

We had won 7 of 8 and had knocked off some top teams. At that time, that was the best record over the last 8 games of anyone in the league. We need to avoid the big losing streaks. This shouldn't be a controversial point.
As for your payroll question, I'm afraid that is not something I can comment on at this time.
