ugh Pasch and Bob Meyers on the call. Fml. The least entertaining announcing crew lol

Pasch's superpower was getting annoyed with Bill Walton as his color guy. I guess we'll see how it works with Meyers.

Pasch works as the straight man to a wacky color commentator. Bob Meyers is about as wacky as a CPA during tax season.

 

[Caccia]

Man, that's an awfully big team for the Mavs. A little strange but big. Battle of the no PG teams lol.

PJ Washington normally plays power forward. Small ball may play to our advantage.

 

[Tetsujin]

Oh wait. It’s Legler calling the game with Pasch. That’s at least a little better.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Kings Kicked Ball Rule invoked early

 

[SacTownKid]

They better not have Keon guard PJ. Put him on Klay.

 

[SLAB]

I’m already over this.

 

[Joshyjosh31]

Zach Lavine just chilling

 

[gunks]

Fix is in haha

 

[Tetsujin]

Not sure what Keon was doing trying to guard AD in the first place but that definitely wasn’t a foul whatever it was.

 

[megapoxy]

I guess we will see Domas and JV together later on

 

[SacTownKid]

Fix is in haha

That foul on Keon was a joke. Yes, he had AD by the wrist but really? lol.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Looks like a tough matchup so far

 

[Tetsujin]

The Mavs have already had to go smaller to try to keep up with the Kings pace by subbing in Exum for Lively. Kings just need to keep putting on pressure.

 

[Caccia]

Kessler Edwards is listed among the Dallas players on ESPN. Is that an error? I saw nothing about his having been signed last week.

 

[MizzouKing]

Keon and Lavine coming out aggressive, love the pace so far.

 

[SacTownKid]

Looks like a tough matchup so far

We'll see if it changes but putting Keon on the ball handler regardless of size is a poor, poor choice. LaVine is letting Klay get wide open off screens in his matchup too. If it doesn't start working Christie has to change it up.

The key to this game is Carter

LOL. Or just switch the two. LaVine is probably the best matchup for the bigger wing/G.

I tend to dislike bananas in general but there’s a local restaurant here ( Frank Fats) that makes a delicious banana cream pie

That's funny, I didn't think that Kings Fans supported local businesses in Sacramento, if the last series of polls is anything to go by.

He's in street clothes behind the bench

 

[captain bill]

Trey!

 

[gunks]

Lyles had time to check where his toe was on that one haha

 

[Tetsujin]

Deebo trying on defense tonight. Must be a meaningful game lmao

 

[The_Jamal]

I'll take 40 DDR points, absolutely

 

[MizzouKing]

...and THATS how you foul. Hard and decisive.

 

[Joshyjosh31]

Gafford stays down like a ***** that’s a flagrent but he got up so they don’t even look at it

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Forgot that they have Gafford back. He's a factor
