Fox showing us who the leader of this team is

 

[burekijogurt]

we need to build up a big lead for that third quarter. so far so good.

 

[Tetsujin]

We're sucking because we replaced the all-female dance crew, aren't we?

 

[Capt. Factorial]

This is great. We need 40 more minutes of this.

 

[SacTownKid]

OK, snapshot that last play on the Fox drive and send it to Luke Walton. THERE is your floor spacing. Dedmon and Bjelica at the corners, Buddy and Ariza up top with the entire middle cleared. Fox can dominate with that spacing.

I was thinking about this for way too much time than I should have last night and came to the sad conclusion that Nuggets George Karl would have been the perfect coach for this team. The irony.

Ingles is a hockey goon

 

[SacTownKid]

Snyder just checked Walton with that pick and roll. You could see that very play on the prior play. The Kings big has to freaking show up on that screen!

It's true. That's why I think I brought up a few times before Walton that looking up and down his coaching tree or Snyders would be a wise move.

Here comes the Brick Mob

 

[dude12]

If the bench loses this lead again, then time for Yogi in the second half...or Wenyen

 

[Tetsujin]

Why does Snyder constantly look like he's just gotten out of the shower?

 

[Kingz19]

Offense still looks like utter trash despite Fox and Buddy iso success

 

[Kingz19]

That looked like a hardest pass Dedmon has had to make all season, and it converted

Pretty decent stint by him. Especially some good plays defensively at the rim

 

[dude12]

Bogi made a shot!

 

[Tetsujin]

Apparently Bogi is money on buzzer beaters and a hot steaming pile of rotting trash almost anytime else.

Yeah, the shot still isn't falling but on defense he was pretty good and at least tried on offense.

In reality, that iso success was the best example of offensive system we've seen all year. It was simple spacing. That's been the Kings biggest issue this year.

 

[Kingz19]

Why does Snyder constantly look like he's just gotten out of the shower?

I don’t know but he starting to remind me of the ancient aliens guy. I can only imagine him
In two years

 

[dude12]

The second unit offensively is challenged

 

[SacTownKid]

Yeah, the shot still isn't falling but on defense he was pretty good and at least tried on offense.

Here's Dedmon in a nutshell. Look at the 3's he's taken in this game. Both of them he wasn't set and was moving into the shot. The next play he's wide open and set, and turns it down. He has to take the set shots but if he's moving into it he has to pass it.

 

[Turgenev]

Just tuned in at end if qtr. First regular season game for me. As others have said - they don't pass ball that much or move off the ball. Backup point not all that worthwhile offensively. D looked good for the 2-3 plays I saw. Dedmond had some movement plays on that end.

 

[Tetsujin]

More like Aliveman, amirite?

 

[gunks]

I've been tellin y'all Dedmon is a stud!!!



(not really, but that was a nice and 1)

 

[SacTownKid]

Enough Dedmon up top with the ball.

 

[dude12]

Not sure anyone, besides Harden, has dribbled more than Cojo

 

[Kingz19]

Utah still the master of the moving screen that’s never called a moving screen

 

[NME]

Dedmon did a thing!

 

[Tetsujin]

CoJo is not a great offensive player but defensively he's helping this lineup attack the Jazz every possession.

 

[gunks]

Wow, first Dedmon, now CJ does something good?!
