Doncic.

Thank you...

 

[ESP47]

Good on Marvin for having himself a game.

 

[SacTownKid]

That is some very kind continuation there.

 

[hrdboild]

Barnes came up huge there. Needed that momentum stopper.

 

[Tetsujin]

LOL What the hell was KPJ thinking there?

 

[KainLear]

When was our last back-to-back win?

He wasn't.

Don't jinx it!

good teams develop their top picks and let them get playing time even if they make mistakes, the fact that Bagley was able to improve massively on defense is a testament to how important player development is.

Was him sucking on defense really his fault ?

 

[KainLear]

Again, flings food at teammates. Walks off game due to being mad at coach.

Just give him time. I won't even go too far. I've had enough watching Gerald Wallace dominating defensively, for Charlotte.

 

[Tetsujin]

Tate just happy he didn't cut his hand on Buddy's teeth.

Speaking of cold as ice!

It amazed me that some fans were convinced he couldn't get better on defense or offense, because.... I'm not really sure the reasoning. It just didn't make sense.

 

[KainLear]

I thought "contact to the face" = automatic flagrant 1...

 

[hrdboild]

Looks like Christian Wood wants another shot attempt, lol

 

[kingsboi]

Porter randomly shooting with his off hand

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I'm blanking on that one. Help a mod out?

My bad, I Mandela Effect'd myself. I was thinking of Michael Ruffin:

I was 100 percent sure that Ruffin was involved but, for some reason, I thought that Ross threw it up, and Ruffin recovered and sent the game to overtime. Doctor Internet, however, revealed to me that Ruffin retired played his last game before Ross got drafted, so I had clearly misremembered.

 

[Groovygreg]

The Kings beat a lesser opponent. Yay.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Whoot!!!!

 

[sactowndog]

For those proposing trades involving Wood just consider he got owned by Bagley.

 

[Livinthedream]

The Kings beat a lesser opponent. Yay.

The alternative is losing to a lesser opponent. So no reason not to be satisfied with the win.

 

[KainLear]

The Kings beat a lesser opponent. Yay.

 

[jiimbob]

So are we sure about trading Bagley? Last couple games looking pretty good.

 

[coolhandluke]

The Kings beat a lesser opponent. Yay.

About time. Lakers don't count.

 

[Groovygreg]

Marvin actually contributed to the win. Good to see.

I remember that game! The Wizards would give us a run for our money for which team has given their fans more reasons to be miserable in the last 20 years.

No, Detroit still waiting to grab him for free. Cade/Bagley will be a sick pnr combo in Detroit, just you watch, haha.

 

[Tetsujin]

I realize that the Kings are supposed to be the franchise in disarray but I'm confused how Eric Gordon, Christian Wood, and DJ Augustin are still on the Rockets, let alone playing major minutes in crunch time for them.

Also, they've still gotta figure out how they're gonna get rid of John Wall's contract.

 

[Woot!]

The Kings beat a lesser opponent. Yay.

Beats the alternative, w/which we're familiar.
