[Game] Preseason Game 3: Kings vs. Warriors, 12/15/2020, 7PM PST, 10PM EST

Is Glen Robinson (misses another) III on a guaranteed deal or can we waive him yet?

I think it's only partially guaranteed. was kind off a unnecessary signing in the first place

 

[SLAB]

Thank God he missed or he'd try it every week

I wish he made it. I also want to see him pulling up from three and throwing Giles style passes on the nightly.

 

[kb02]

My dude is going to be starting and the second best player on the team in about 2 weeks.

Holmes and Bjelly are trade bait.

 

[dude12]

I wish Walton would pair up Fox with a faster lineup instead of the Whiteside/Bjelica pairing

 

[Livinthedream]

It was amusing. I'd like to see it again please.

And I hope Monte new that signing meant your rookies get gutpunched to the back of the rotation, haha. Well, he should have known.

 

[SLAB]

For sure. I just wish Hassan was more than a one-year prove it. Opens the doors for Giles’ or DeMarcus’ triumphant return next season though. Lol

I went from excited to see Woodard backing up barnes just for GRIII to get signed to push Woordard to 3rd string

 

[dude12]

Woodard in, Guy in

who gonna be the back-ups if we trade Holmes and belly tho. Bagley and Whiteside as your only bigs isn't ideal.

Barnes with spot minutes here and there, Frank, and Metu.

Man Hassan is tough, strong, and brings back my nightmares on how Petrie drafted him and DMC at the time the Maloofs was goofing around this team. That was a big haul by Geoff but other things were in the org was just messed up.

 

[SactownShaq]

Kaminsky and Metu. Bags starts.

I completely blanked out on those two lol. I assumed Kaminsky was gonna get waived at some point.

 

[SactownShaq]

here Kaminsky in the game tho lets see how frank the tank does

Unfortunately for us, Hassan needed to fail spectacularly to get where he is today.

 

[SLAB]

Dude. Kyle Guy.

 

[SactownShaq]

yea he wasn't nba ready back then. Remember when he though Jason jones was just a big fan following the team around.

 

[Noble]

what's with this Guy

 

[SLAB]

I liked Bazemore. But he’s another guy I’m glad wasn’t retained. He’s in the Bogi/Bjeli camp where he’s fine but doesn’t move the needle on a bad team.

 

[SactownShaq]

I remember liking JJ more than Guy, I've now changed sides.

 

[SLAB]

Duuuuuuuuuuuuude, Guy!

If we were a playoff team I would like him on the bench but honestly I am not even sure we got worse without him unless GRIII is his direct replacement.

 

[SLAB]

This team... this team might actually be some fun this year. And the dark cloud of inevitable failure got fired so I can allow myself to have fun with it!

Let’s go y’all!

 

[kb02]

Kyle Guy = Steve Kerr.

 

[Sluggah]

The hell Guy

 

[Hoovtrain]

How nice would it be if Guy could carry this over the regular season . I knew he could shoot but liking seeing him create on his own with guys on him .

 

[Folsomkingsfan]

Yea, Thornton was by far my least favorite Kings player in the last 15 years. GRIII plays just like him. Selfish, black hole.

One play that always stuck with me was in like 2011, we were down by like 10 or something one game with about a minute and a half remaining and we had clawed back into the game pretty decently. Thornton was shooting like 30% on the night. I think it was Beno that passed Thornton the ball with about 18 seconds or so left on the shot clock. Thornton dribbles at the top of the key for like 5 seconds and then somehow Cousins winds up completely wide open down low for no less than about 4 seconds and is screaming for the ball. Thornton looks up and had to have seen Cousins open, but then starts to try and dribble around the entire three point line trying to get open for his own three point shot. The double then comes because at this point there is now only like 5 seconds left on the shot clock. When the double comes Beno, then somehow becomes wide open as well on the other side of the three point line. Yet instead of throwing the long pass to Beno, Thornton instead takes a contested fadeaway three that completely bricks.

I remember watching this play and being stunned. The reason I remember it is because I was also coaching my younger brothers rec basketball team at the time and saved the video of that play to show the team. I told them if I ever saw any one of them play this selfishly in a game they would come out for the rest of the game and have to do extra suicide sprints next practice.

Kyle Guy = Steve Kerr.

Can we promote him to coach when we fire Luke then?
