[Game] Kings @ Wizards - Monday, March 11 - 4PT/7ET

[VF21]

It's a beautiful day!! I just wanted to share that since I don't think I've seen the sun more than once or twice since the stupid groundhog made his prognostication. I'd almost forgotten how beautiful blue the sky can be.

Kings at Wizards...hopefully it will be a good game!

Well, let's face it. This could be a "win or go home" game. Let's go Kings.

We can't go home yet. There are two more road games after this one.

The Wizards seem to be playing better basketball lately. The Kings better bring their A game today.

Yea Bobby Portis has really upped his game since the trade.

 

[John Galt]

I objected loudly when people called the Celtics game a “must win”.... but I’m on board with this one. The margin for screwing up is pretty well .... thin

 

[Sac.1989]

This is a tough one. The Wizards are very respectable at home. This will take some winning. Must start well and play hard

 

[jcwkings]

The Wiz were introducing the Kings to Deftones "Change". It makes absolutely no sense but there's at least one cool person that works for the Wizards.

 

[Hoovtrain]

Is this for real?!

 

[NME]

Layups...

 

[Hoovtrain]

Miss a couple more point blank shots. Pathetic

 

[Amiga]

willie is terrible

 

[Tizzy Flip]

Willie and his layup %... smh

 

[Amiga]

Also I don't know if i consider bogie a good shooter anymore.

 

[VF21]

(From VF21 the fan - just so there's no doubt)

Gotta love the support for the team early on.

There are times I think I'd rather have Laker trolls than see some of the non-support for the Kings. But hey, whatever floats your boat. Have a good afternoon. I'm checking out to enjoy the game without the angst.

GO KINGS!!

 

[Hoovtrain]

Great job guys. Playoff spot still on the line and you come out like this against a crap WAS team

 

[jcwkings]

The Kings started 5-0 and since have given up a 17-2 run. Yikes.

 

[NME]

Not sure what positive comment could be made thus far.

 

[NME]

Cool pass, Harry. That's one.

 

[jcwkings]

Kings don't have the focus yet to be a good road team.

 

[Hoovtrain]

Not sure what positive comment could be made thus far.

Exactly. I would expect a team fighting for their playoff lives to come out stronger . Just a little frustrating and I talk a bunch of crap throughout the course of the game lol

 

[Hoovtrain]

I’ve ssid it before but is there another team that misses more point blank shots than this team? That and the defensive rebounding pee me off to no end

What's most frustrating is watching other teams pick and roll the Kings up and down the floor while the Kings almost go out of their way to avoid doing it on the other end as they see huge droughts mount and mount. I can't see this team taking the next step until they start running it as option 1 and perfect it. Joerger needs to flip his emphasis before it's too late.

Why we still going small

 

[SacTownKid]

Why we still going small

Well, the Wizards play small mostly but the Kings being small doesn't preclude them from running the right offensive plays. In fact, in theory it should make them more potent.

 

[NME]

We can't play like this much longer and stay within reach. Harry and Harrison came to play. Waiting on anyone else.

 

[SacTownKid]

And yes, the other teams have completely figured out the defensive help scheme for sure. I never have ever understood why having someone like Yogi Ferrell help in the paint makes any sense. Outside of the 1 in 100 tries that he comes up with a charge or a steal what is he going to do down low for you? Whereas on the other end of it you give up wide open 3's every time. Brooks is eating the Kings gameplan defensively for lunch.

 

[Agent23]

Sheesh, the Kings can’t make shh and the Wizards started to hit their threes.

 

[SLAB]

Looks like I’m joining midway into a sweet performance.

 

[SacTownKid]

OK, if they are deadset on entering the ball to Willie into the post that's how you do it. Wait until he is right at the basket so all he has to do is spin once. Parker overplayed him, easy hoop.
