[Game] Portland vs. Kings, Tuesday Nov. 12, 7 PM PT/10 PM ET

Whiteside’s jersey looks consciously tight

 

[Suicide King]

Giles sitting on the bench icing his knees after warmups... wow

Maybe it's precautionary.

Edit: or preventive rather

 

[chief bromden]

I was about to post a picture of this.

This is probably why the Kings were confident they could re-sign him for less than 4 million a year

Haha, no doubt man. I wonder how much his ice bill is for a season

 

[Tetsujin]

Thankfully the Blazers centers can't stop fouling

 

[chief bromden]

Maybe it's precautionary.

I’d hope so, but still.... not a great sign

 

[DesertFox]

Something I didn't know until watching him everyday, Dedmon plays hard but he is not a high IQ player.

 

[SLAB]

Maybe it's precautionary.

Edit: or preventive rather

He always has ice on his knees when he’s on the bench. This isn’t new.

 

[SLAB]

I’m ready to never ever see Dedmon again.

 

[Tetsujin]

I have never seen a cold streak like this in my life

 

[kingsboi]

Buddy all of a sudden can't shoot to save his life....he's shooting as if he's still a Pelican

 

[SLAB]

“Kings are fortunate they’re only down by ____” on your Grant bingo card.

 

[VF21]

'When's the last time you saw Buddy struggle like this?" Is it just me, or has it happened all too often?

 

[chief bromden]

He always has ice on his knees when he’s on the bench. This isn’t new.

Not when he is in street clothes!

 

[Tetsujin]

This defense is amazing. The offense aside from Bjeli has been the opposite of that

 

[Kingz19]

Kings are very very active on D right now. I like it.

The offense. Not so much

 

[kb02]

Skal looks like he hasn’t improved at all.

I was thinking “a few games ago?” Lol

 

[VF21]

As SLAB pointed out above, it's not unusual.

 

[kingsboi]

Skal looks like he hasn’t improved at all.

from a basketball stand point. no. from a physical standpoint, he's been hitting the weight room.

 

[Amiga]

Buddy needs to step it up big time. I like the defense though.

 

[Fear the Putin]

This is comical

 

[Suicide King]

So we have good defense so far and mind numbingly awful offense.

 

[Tetsujin]

from a basketball stand point. no. from a physical standpoint, he's been hitting the weight room.

Dude looks like he's been skipping leg day though

 

[chief bromden]

As SLAB pointed out above, it's not unusual.

Hmmm, I’ve always noticed it after he has played... never noticed it after lay up lines but I don’t catch everything

 

[kb02]

from a basketball stand point. no. from a physical standpoint, he's been hitting the weight room.

All that muscle n still a few steps slow.

 

[Larry89]

never thought our defense would be keeping us in games..

 

[kingsboi]

Dude looks like he's been skipping leg day though

you can say that for most NBA players. too much girth in the legs = slower

 

[Agent23]

Sheesh, took a half day at work to watch this. At least the effort is there.

 

[kingsboi]

Portland is turning the ball over at an absurd rate right now

 

[Tetsujin]

New JJ is more like new Mateen
