[Game] Kings vs Trailblazers, 2/23/2023 7pm Pacific 10pm Eastern

[kingsboi]

Blazers entire starting unit out which equals the Kings will play like zombies for about 3 and a half quarters

 

[NewArena]

I choose to believe the Kings no their schedule is no joke these next 25 games and will come out firing. Our defensive rating is actually a lot better in this second half of the season so im expecting some good surprises from us going forward. Here's to Huerter getting his stroke back and our All Stars continuing to show why they're All Stars- Let's LIGHT THE BEAM!

The Portland Trrail Blazers have ruled Jerami Grant (rest) and Damian Lillard (rest) out for tonight’s game against the Kings.

Just saw a TikTok of the players being asked what their favorite cereal was…4 out of 7 answered correctly with Cinnamon Toast Crunch.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

It is truly amazing how consistently BAD we are to start games.

 

[Sluggah]

I’m shocked!

 

[fansinceday1]

Wow……..

 

[206Fan]

pathetic start... when are we ever going to play defense?

 

[iowamcnabb]

That really couldn’t have gone any worse. Gotta get this down to 5-8 before the end of the quarter

 

[sauce-26]

Wtf…

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

The Kings take longer to get warmed up than Greg "The Hammer" Valentine.

 

[KF8]

we'll start playing once we're down by 20 or else it'd be too easy

 

[DynaPamm]

OMG Why why why…. Did I hurry to get here? Coach should of called time out ten points ago 19-4? Maybe I’ll feel better after the…..3rd quarter

 

[sauce-26]

That ankle tho

The defense has not been great, but it's not as if the Trail Blazers have been butt naked open; virtually every make has been contested.

As usual.....
They'll start making some shots to help you forget a bit how polar the team is.

 

[Hoovtrain]

These ****ing guys

 

[TaxMan]

Un****ing believable

 

[Kingz19]

Who’s Nasir Little and why does he already have 12 points?

 

[Capt. Factorial]

How soon before the NBA opens a point-shaving investigation into the Kings starters?

 

[kingdivac]

Who’s Nasir Little and why does he already have 12 points?

The Kings might've fared better starting their whole bench in solidarity.

 

[Letsgokings13]

Mitchell doesn't even play defense anymore it seems. So what does he do.

 

[Letsgokings13]

Yeah, we'd be better off without HCA it seems.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Monk is either the energizer bunny or Buddy blunder

 

[SacTownKid]

Offense still in a slump.

 

[sauce-26]

Full roster or missing whole starting 5, dont matter. Sac will give up 30-40 points in the 1st quarter

 

[Kingz19]

Once again, I think teams are making a point by choosing the Kings as the “rest game”.

Portland certainly can’t afford to be resting their best players looking at the standings, they don’t play tomorrow, they haven’t played for a week..,yet something tells me they were confident the offense wouldn’t drop off against the Kings defense. That never saw a pump fake they wouldn’t bite on

Trey comes through for you.

 

[iowamcnabb]

I’m going to miss that guy if he leaves next year
