[Game] Kings vs. Raptors, 1/8/2021 7pm PST, 10pm EST

[PurpleHaze]

Raps 1-6 start to the season. Desperate for a W. Kings will need to play their ass off on D to win this game. Rese shockingly is probably the Kings best defensive player and needs to play entire or nearly entire 4Q. He's 20 years old and can handle it easily!

 

[SacTownKid]

There is no way Woodard will get rotation minutes unless someone is injured.

And Monte, the ball is in your court my man, haha.

 

[iowamcnabb]

111 through three quarters and they are missing their starting PG? yikes. I'm glad I didn't purchase League Pass this season I can say that much

It’s a freak game really. And to be fair the kings have 103 on 65 percent shooting

 

[dude12]

Raptors 50 points in the paint....so far

 

[Hoovtrain]

Cool moss some free throws,

 

[iowamcnabb]

Siakam with that tennis player grunt on every play.

 

[Hoovtrain]

Here’s that great kings perimeter defense we all know and love
Yeah I’m done!

that and the Raptors are having one of those once in a season games.

 

[SacTownKid]

And right on the money Nurse pulls Joseph into the paint on help and gets two wide open 3's.

 

[SLAB]

Okay, I’ll never listen to someone complimenting Luke Walton ever again.

Cojo the paint stopper!

 

[dude12]

Jeeeeez.....wide open 3’s and easy layups down the paint

 

[Kingz19]

Well, you allow them to shoot at warm up drill space, don’t be surprised when they shoot at a warm up drill percentage

 

[Spike]

Gross.

 

[luckytkp]

we are the only team to let Malachi Flynn get a layup lol

 

[Tetsujin]

The raptors missed all of their threes in the first 7 games of the year in order to hit them all tonight.

 

[Spike]

Gross.

Just...gross.

 

[Turgenev]

Wow promising start has turned into a humiliation. Lame.

 

[OffTheWallJamal]

What the hell is going on can they miss one???

 

[kb02]

The raptors missed all of their threes in the first 7 games of the year in order to hit them all tonight.

That was one of the Kings--3 pointers made between the two teams was 33%.

 

[Volblorx8634]

Raptors 50 points in the paint....so far

I don't understand how Luke can just sit there watching the Raptors get easy layup after easy layup.

 

[iowamcnabb]

What the hell is going on can they miss one???

I bet they shoot 22 percent from 3 in their next game.

 

[Iced Espresso]

Kings

62.9% from the floor
50% from 3

And down by 16

 

[Spike]

Kings need to match the Raps physicality.

They're honestly not even being that physical. They're just not being challenged defensively, and offensively, they're trying to get it all back at once.

 

[kb02]

CoJo needs to see the bench.

 

[SacTownKid]

Look, if Walton wants to rely on help defense oriented switching and run outs then he is going to be forced to play Woodard. Cory Joseph has never been good at SG on O but my goodness, now they are just making it a joke right now and attacking the lack of length on the wing with him in there on defense.

 

[SLAB]

Good play, CoJo.

 

[Tetsujin]

Bench CoJo play Hassan. Jeebus

 

[Hoovtrain]

that and the Raptors are having one of those once in a season games.

Just seems to happen far too often against the kings .

 

[BillyStrings]

Cory Joseph is the worst.
