[Game] Kings vs Pistons, 1/19/2022 7pm PT/10pm ET

[SacTownKid]

Fox give me all your offense is back. Making plays for anyone and everyone including himself. Hopefully this is the plan from here on. No more waffling with roles.

 

[steelevt]

I know it’s against Detroit. But the kings don’t look so bad when they aren’t jacking up 30+ 3 pointers a game.

 

[KainLear]

You can clearly see why Detroit is high on Marv. They got no answer for such a man!

 

[steelevt]

I'm not seeing Doug on the bench. Is it just me?

Where's Doug Christie ?

Last I heard, health and safety protocols. I think it was on the radio.

thanks for the news, I figured as much, or some personal issue

 

[Groovygreg]

Saddiq Bey is good.

 

[SacTownKid]

If the Pistons draft Banchero, he and Stewart might help usher in a new era of pain to the NBA. I'd go Holmgren over him still but that frontcourt duo would be quite interesting.

 

[KainLear]

Saddiq Bey is good.

He's a tough cover for this current Kings roster.

 

[KainLear]

4 FTs missed in a row... I believe?

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Well, that took a turn.

 

[steelevt]

4 FTs missed in a row... I believe?

Naw. We don’t want free points. We like to make the game harder than it should be.

 

[KainLear]

Just like clock work. We miss some easy sh*t, we then let them score easily, and here we are once again.

Do you know what was said to them to get the T's? I didn't see much of a reaction from the players getting a T so it makes me think they deserved it. Do you think if they said "You f'ing suck, ref" right to their face but TV doesn't pick it up, the ref should just be a coward and ignore it?

Yes actually. It's a game of emotions and high testosterone

 

[SacTownKid]

If Petrie were still GM I'd have no doubts after this performance Olynyk just became the prime trade target. haha. He's wiping his backside with Metu/Jones right now. Pistons waited too long on Grant, but they have the right ideas. Buy low, sell high on guys that can produce now around their young core. See you in 3 years Pistons.

 

[New Era]

Yes actually. It's a game of emotions and high testosterone

What is your point? There are rules. You can't cuz out a ref or be unsporting. If you don't like that, then go follow WWF or something.

 

[steelevt]

I’m ready to trade buddy

 

[KainLear]

Why did I know it'd be Buddy.

 

[SacTownKid]

OK, Metu has to sit. Olynyk is running PG and Bey is cutting right through Metu every single play.

 

[KainLear]

At least I know if we lose this game, we deserve to lose it. No bad call from refs or Detroit really stepping up their game all of a sudden. We thought we got it and left the door open.

Have to give credit to Olynyk, dude is flat out dominating the Kings frontline with his passing and offensive skill right now.

 

[Groovygreg]

Bagley and Fox are having nice games.

 

[SacTownKid]

Bagley seems to have helped to stop some of the bleeding. That Jones/Metu frontline literally got annihilated in that one stretch.

 

[SacTownKid]

Bagley and Fox are having nice games.

Not sure if Monte can make any trades with the pieces he wants to hold onto but if he has any hope moving on, no more watching Marvin Bagley split or share minutes with Jones/Metu. Those days need to be over. He can play next to them better than Holmes even but it needs to be one or the other from night to night.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Buddy may be checked out at this point.

 

[KainLear]

Buddy may be checked out at this point.

Feels like he did before this point. But I digress...

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Feels like he did before this point. But I digress...

He was 9-16 for 27 points on Sunday. 0-2 for 2 points so far today, and he might not see the floor again. This is definitely *more* checked out than recently.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

No shimmy, no problem!

 

[KainLear]

Davion had been playing great defense on Cade just as he was about to attempt to get his. Good job!

 

[Sluggah]

Save us TD!

 

[Groovygreg]

Davis!
