[Game] Kings vs Warriors 1/5 7PT/10ET

[SacTownKid]

Hey, Willie in pick and roll? Ain't half bad. They deserved that turnover when attempting to enter the ball to him in the high post a few plays before.

Buddy is FIREEEEE

 

[Suicide King]

Fox is taking some of my love for this season and some belief in our future. In my mind we are once again without a surefire franchise piece as of now. Don’t like the intensity issue at all

He is hurting, 20 years old, and this is the first season ( of two in the league) where he has been allowed to play in an offense suited for him.

A little early imo to lose heart regarding Fox.

Edit: he's 21

 

[206Fan]

So are we just playing Willie at this point to not hurt his feelings?

So far he has 11pts 9rebs 4asts 1stl...

I swear he can never do right by Kings fans unless he posts up 15+rebs.

 

[Ozymandias]

Buddy's on fire!!!

Nice find by fox on the last one.

 

[KingKong]

What Buddy has been doing lately is nothing short of amazing! Dude is another star in the making.

21. Almost as old and past his expiration date as Buddy Hield.

I love when a second year player who’s pretty clearly banged up goes through a rough patch and he’s immediately disregarded as a potential franchise piece. Lol

No ****. Fox impacting the game with his passing. Something he never would have done last year. Such a more well rounded player.

One might be tempted to say that, considering that we're a team that wasn't favored to win over 26 games in the season but is instead likely to pass that mark in January, the majority of the fixated criticisms of individual players are overblown and missing the forest for the trees.

 

[Ozymandias]

good closeout by fox there on the last curry 3 to force the airball

 

[Tetsujin]

Watching Buddy match Steph shot for shot is certainly eye opening. Vivek was apparently on to something or something

 

[Kingz19]

What was that Willie?

 

[Kingz19]

Dunk always Willie

 

[biltalent]

Warriors are tired!

 

[SLAB]

Idk how Willie has the line he does tonight, but I’ll take it every single time!

Not enough people give De’aaron credit on that end. He’s making special plays on that end on a nightly basis.

I honestly believe he has the potential to be the best defensive PG since Gary Payton

 

[1234kings]

Willie is REBOUNDING!! YASSSSS

 

[Kingz19]

Fox making some dishes tonight

Hopefully he can squeeze in an 8-10 point rush before the game is out

 

[Ozymandias]

Fox recovered and bothered Curry on that last 3 too. If u really look at his last few possesions defensively vs Steph they've been near perfect.

 

[HndsmCelt]

I could make a lot of complaints, and I'm sure, I will but this is damn fun to watch!

 

[The Hammer]

In case anyone hasn't noticed, this may be the best offensive game the Kings have played all season.

 

[Mrkipro]

We are playing smart

 

[Kingsfan23]

You had love and belief for this season? Fooled me

I had it for the future with Fox coming out looking like a possible top ten player. If he played well for that stretch, and should just be held to the expectations of becoming a good PG, ok. I don’t question him becoming that.

 

[Sluggah]

somone I know used to scream at the tv with me rooting for the Kings back in the early 00’s. Now he wears Warrriors gear....he’s dead to me

Gross.

 

[Kingz19]

The refs default position is Warriors ball

 

[HndsmCelt]

Fox recovered and bothered Curry on that last 3 too. If u really look at his last few possesions defensively vs Steph they've been near perfect.

this is almost a strong argument for playing Fox a little bit less in the first half so you've got a little more energy in the second half

But is he imprinting

 

[DesertFox]

What a bailout call for durant

Nope. Not even close bro. I was a huge WCS fan (and still am) but refuse to gloss over his basic fundamental defense and rebounding and mental errors. Most of his point are off dunks set up by our guards (normal). But there OBVIOUS gaping holes in his game. So he gets a fluke rebounding night... while also missing at least three basic boxout assignments.
