[Game] Kings @ Warriors - Thursday, Feb. 21 - 7:30PT/10:30ET

Ya see KD dapped MArvin up after that last foul with 15 seconds, he got him and was shaking his head in acknowledgement of the foul.

For all the crap KD gets I don't think he seems like much of a jerk..

he's just a jerk towards the media, who in turn make him out to be a villain, which he certainly is but that's for another discussion

 

[Kingz19]

Barnes is much better defensively than he is on offense.

That’s fine. However, He is better offensively than his start with the Kings would suggest. Atleast, his outside shot is considerably better. Alec Burks is also a very good scorer but he hasn’t scored since his debut with the team

 

[TaxMan]

Barnes is a lot better for the Kings than anyone else we've had at the 3 since Ron Artest.

Agreed. That’s why I wish coach would just play him at the 3!!

Then why does dj keep playing him at the 4?

 

[King-Biscuit-Time]

Barnes making me miss Justin Jackson

3 is the new 4.

 

[Tetsujin]

Then why does dj keep playing him at the 4?

Because he's a better option in that role than Bjeli is at the moment and we're trying to blitz Boogie out of the game.

It's been a very long time since I changed my avatar. Somehow, I think Vlade will understand.

 

[Kingz19]

That’s a Giants hat Koz. You hater

I defy anybody here to figure out matchups that work against the Warriors. Joerger isn't adverse to trying as many different looks as he can.

 

[SacTownKid]

The Kings are going to have to start getting that 3 ball to fall. I like the pounding they did in the first half but I'd bet those whistles disappear after half.

 

[Entity]

And we have. We have taken an all star legit bully big man out of the game. We should do the same with Steven Adams

 

[Swipa]

Missed the first half cuz I was in flight. Anyone care to give a quick recap of how Bagley looked? Can see the numbers, but was he more poised or erratic bags?

 

[SacTownKid]

Really important, no quarter under that 100 ppg threshold. They made it out if the first half with no dip in pace, this is the hurdle the Kings have to make it over if they have a shot at the playoffs.

 

[Amiga]

Barnes looks a lot slower than shumpert.

He looked like he belonged. A few learning experiences here and there but he looked like he can hang with the best.

 

[SacTownKid]

Barnes looks a lot slower than shumpert.

He's a lot bigger than Shumpert. I'm impressed with this ability to chop his feet and stay in front of his man. When he gets picked he also maintains proximity to his man over the screen well. They taught him good defensive fundamentals at Golden State.

 

[Kings_of_California]

Of course I just had to check the score and see us up 3 at half. Now I'm all excited and getting myself pumped up for what may ultimately be a letdown.

If we lose I'd have rather not seen the halftime score at all lol. This wouldn't be the first close contest ending in a loss against this team.

Steve Kerr with the Popovich timeout...time to chew the official out

 

[King-Biscuit-Time]

He showed a glimpse of real confidence and aggression. When that confidence goes up several notches to match his manic energy, and if he can get a bit of a mean streak (along w/ a left hand), he's gonna be scary.

Just scroll back and check out the gifs I posted. That'll tell you in a nutshell.

STFU Grant. KD flopped when Buddy barely touched him.

 

[Kingz19]

KD flopped

Surprised they didn’t call it for him though

Awesome.

Just don't change your screen name to match...

Takes a King getting away with a light touch on offense to get Grant disagreeing with the refs

 

[burekijogurt]

watch the officials hit us with ton of fouls after that timeout

Not to pick nits or anything, but he's hanging with the best right now.

 

[NME]

Finally an alcohol commercial unafraid to simply say "get tanked and run through the streets."

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Buddy did what?
