Nobody wants to go inside on NQ. He has laid the wood to 2 of them

 

[Tetsujin]

Cook coming for that 3rd PG spot.

 

[Entity]

Chima runs hard in transition.

He plays hard 100% of the time

 

[Tetsujin]

I don’t know who’s making the final roster but I’m 99.99999% sure Sam Merrill won’t be one of them.

 

[Tetsujin]

Cook already has 10 points

 

[PorchSurfin]

I got two teenagers it’s just weird hearing adults use same vocabulary trying to sound hip.

Is it such a bad thing to try to relate to a younger audience tho? Seems like "old man yells at cloud" because you can't have the game called the way you want.

Times change my friend.

Damn Keon don’t even get to take the shot lol. Is that Mid or Cap

I doubt the kings have many young viewers. Most of us are from the past days. Have you seen anything the last 16 years to attract a new younger audience lol

 

[Tetsujin]

Interesting that we haven’t seen KZ at all tonight.

 

[Tetsujin]

If Merrill isn’t making his shots, there’s no reason for him to play

Moneke and Ellis have been impactful during their time on the floor.

But no my 16 year old son heard jones and was like what is he doing? That’s embarrassing. 70 year old man trying to hard. I know he is 60 but to a 16 year old he is 70-80 lol

Yeah. DoCo.

He is killer at HORSE though

Why can't I watch the game?! Can't watch it on league pass, or Suns local broadcast.

Chima has been pretty uneven out there. A handful of mistakes but he does bring energy

 

[NewArena]

I think our guys saw the Suns sitting their main guys out and kinda lost some steam/interest early on. It was pretty obvious for me but i guess they eventually got it together? I wasn’t able to see the second half.

I hate to bring up the golden years, but, that was super reminiscent.

Yeah I mean I get it. He wears a LOT of makeup and can be a little cringe at times. But I was done with Napear's self 5 years before he eventually left. So any fresh air is a LOT of fresh air.

I could get very snarky on Napear but will leave it alone.

He is a smaller version of pre 2021 Holmes. The new Holmes not so much the energy guy anymore.

 

[Entity]

Can’t leave him open that’s for sure jimmer 2.0

Lmao maybe he really is just used to motivate Keegan

Yes, they played down to their level of competition. That needs to change if they want to be a good team.

 

[Tetsujin]

Chima with a nice defensive play. Can’t get the ball because Sam Merrill gets in his way.

 

[Entity]

Does Merrill have a g league gig lined up or will he be selling CPAP machines next Monday?

 

[MizzouKing]

SIT F’ing MERRIL!!!

 

[Tetsujin]

Sam Merrill locks Washington Jr. up for the win!

 

[iowamcnabb]

Oi vey

 

[Tetsujin]

If Merrill inexplicably makes the team, that play will be why lmao

 

[MizzouKing]

Good game for what preseason games are supposed to be for, glad we got the W despite ourselves.
