[Game] Kings vs Timberwolves, 11/15/2024 7pm PST 10pm EST (Emirates Cup Game)

[est.1999]

Is it going to be another 20 years before we’re good again?

 

[chief bromden]

A rather ignominious first impression; he's not exactly putting any "money on tape" right now.

Yeah but he exists

 

[chief bromden]

K33gan!!!

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

I guess Len is "the opener" for some reason

 

[The_Jamal]

Sure Mike, gave up a 12-0 run, lets put in the NO DEFENSE of Doug McBuckets over Keon Ellis.

 

[NewArena]

Ugh

 

[The_Jamal]

I don't think I've ever been so frustrated with a Mike Brown coaching job. Just absolutely pressing every wrong button and lever tonight.

Ant Edwards going off and goes with McBuckets over Keon. I don't get it.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Go to see Keon back on court

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Shooting 50 percent from the field, perfect from the line, winning the rebounding battle, edge in fast break points, edge in points in the paint... but losing by 17 because your three=point defense is atrocious.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Got the offense, looking crisper than a autumn morning right now, but need some more of those stops

 

[The_Jamal]

Keon in and out 3. That's like.....15 team wide this season?

 

[iowamcnabb]

haven’t been able to watch, what’s going on with the threes? Is it spray threes again? Over helping? Tough shot making?

Bunch of wide open and Julius Randle typical throwing up junk and it going in.

Just not shooting it well tonight, and didn’t shoot enough of the first half. The office office is looking better right now. Hopefully they will start connecting more of those threes.

 

[sactowndog]

Not sure I have seen Fox touch the paint and kick out to an open shooter once

 

[Sluggah]

Kings miss wide open three, Wolves make well defended three. Cool.

 

[Elektrik]

Huerter looks like he’s taking the night off. I know we are short handed with no Monk or DeRozan but just a terrible game. Very frustrating game to watch. One thing, Sabonis and Len should never be on the floor at the same time…unless it’s during a time out.

Also the shots are going halfway down and then popping back out. We're not missing by much but we are missing.

 

[HndsmCelt]

He’s trying to single-handedly fell out all of Minnesota starters

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

I can't help but wonder if this team would perform better, if Doug Christie was the head man.

I'm convinced that he wouldn't do nearly as much of the mysterious stuff that Brown does

 

[Elektrik]

We need “Angry Fox” to have any chance to win this game.

 

[Elektrik]

Timberwolves just throwing anything up there and it’s going in.

 

[SacTownKid]

This might be a better matchup for Len as a backup C. Lyles is getting blasted at the rim and on switches.

One day the Kings might learn. Give a team everything at the start of the game and good luck stopping them at the end.

That's a lot of what got the Kings in trouble early. At least of the pick and roll.

 

[TaxMan]

For a team that has a crap bench, losing two of our top 5 players is a killer.

 

[The_Jamal]

Next thing I'm doing if I get HC.

Keon Ellis starts, plays 32+ MPG. Time to actually invest in defensive talent and get someone on the floor who can actually contest these 3's.

 

[HndsmCelt]

I definitely see that, but in the short stance he had Len was pretty much just an albatross around the neck of the offense .

Yeah, but that was in a big lineup. Len with the small lineup is usually OK.

Just like everyone was saying before the season before Kev got his job back for no reason at all.

Keon makes so much sense in the starting 5 with DeRozan, it’s infuriating.
