[Game] Kings vs. Magic 1/9/2023 7pm Pacific 10pm Eastern

[Kingz19]

Well, beginning of the Dozier era I guess

 

[Tetsujin]

Kings just ran a pick and roll with Domas as the ball handler and Keegan as the screener.

 

[Ozymandias]

Nice start

 

[The_Jamal]

God I've always hated the out of control offensive player driving in the lane, just heaving up a shot and getting rewarded for it.

 

[The_Jamal]

WCJ can't handle Domas in the post. He's muscling them basically every time

 

[The_Jamal]

Oh baby, Davion big time steal on Paolo into a transition 3 for Keegan. Beauty

 

[Tetsujin]

Davion just took Paolo's cornbread on a dribble drive. Dude's like a full foot shorter than him

 

[The_Jamal]

Kings playing with some real physicality on both ends. Seems like they got the memo they need to pick up the intensity on the defensive end especially. We're the more physical team right now

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Davion just took Paolo's cornbread on a dribble drive. Dude's like a full foot shorter than him

That just means he's closer to where the ball bounces.

If Davion can find his niche on offense he is going to be a stud come playoff time. Hollinger said his defense is unbelievable but his offense looks like he is being guarded by Davion Mitchell. Thought that was pretty funny even though I don’t generally care for his opinions.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Very nice start

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Oh, you're not allowed to hit a guy on the head?

Kind of true though. He's such a game-changer on defense, but man he's got to find something close to end of last season form on offense. He's too good on defense to only be on the floor 20 MPG

 

[The_Jamal]

Monk with a beautiful PnR to Sabonis.

 

[The_Jamal]

OH BABY THEN SABONIS DISHES IT RIGHT BACK.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Monk with a beautiful PnR to Sabonis.

Got one back

 

[Sluggah]

That was some good not-fouling by Domas

 

[The_Jamal]

When Sabonis is pinned under the rim, everyone else needs to stop freaking ball-watching and go get a rebound.

 

[HndsmCelt]

I see the team is still leaving areas for improvement. It would be a shame if there was nothing left to focus on in practice.

 

[The_Jamal]

And the back-up C musical chairs has Metu in.

 

[Sluggah]

Woah. Metu

 

[Tetsujin]

Trey Lyles with a random elite backdoor pass.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Nice to see Metu using the dunker spot

 

[LoungeLizard]

Welcome back Metu!

 

[The_Jamal]

Metu Dunks/minute remains elite

 

[Capt. Factorial]

This Orlando defense looks really familiar, I think they stole it from us.

 

[dude12]

Good lead but I’m not sure 31 points allowed is what Brown had in mind

 

[Tetsujin]

Kings on pace to give up 124 points (and score 164 points) tonight.

 

[HndsmCelt]

I have to wonder what methodology Coach Brown is using for determining who plays minutes behind Sabonis. Drawing names out of the hat? Dart board? Ouija board..

 

[The_Jamal]

Trey Lyles with a random elite backdoor pass.

So he can make that pass, but can't make a clean inbound?
