[Game] Preseason Kings @ Trailblazers, 10/11/21 7pm Pacific 10pm Eastern (No Local TV)

Uh oh. Bad Luke alert. Holmes running offense, Harkless a focal point.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Ugly so far but Portland can’t take advantage. Offense is really stagnant so far, Fox has been active defensively

 

[SacTownKid]

Also, little switching and overhelp leading to wide open shots all over the floor that they are missing.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

I prefer the dude they had last season. Then again, I've hated Calabro ever since he was actively lobbying for the Kings to move to Seattle.

The guy last year was a good story, and bad homerism aside - something totally ok for a local crew - Mike and Mike were fine and generally loved here in Portland.

Uh oh. Bad Luke alert. Holmes running offense, Harkless a focal point.

Feels like the is him trying to take advantage of Nurkic on offense but that's just not Holmes' game.

 

[Sluggah]

Fox being absolutely swarmed.

 

[The_Jamal]

Early Metu

 

[The_Jamal]

Lets go TD! Super active

 

[SacTownKid]

Great news, they already made defensive adjustments.

 

[Tetsujin]

This team is so much deeper than last season.

 

[Iced Espresso]

People with League Pass outside the Sacramento area are fine. Sacramentans are SOL

Why are we stuck in the 80's and 90's still when it comes to broadcasts?

Shoot I assumed it would be on TV, guess I should know by now.

 

[Sluggah]

Davis not playing around.

 

[mac]

TD making his case for big minutes

 

[iowamcnabb]

Terence “Bobby Jackson” Davis

 

[Tetsujin]

TD lobbying for the Kings to trade Buddy with his play.

 

[The_Jamal]

This is literally the exact use-case for TD. Bench microwave to pick up the offense when it comes out flat.

 

[Tetsujin]

Those Microwave comps are not bad.

Buddy eating popcorn in slacks while cheering on the team is a pretty funny sight

Everything Buddy does would be hilarious if it also didn't involve him hurting the Kings.

 

[Tetsujin]

P-Pat is on the Blazers now?

 

[AMR42700]

Terrence Davis seems to have derived ALOT OF BENEFITS playing with Mitchell. He spoke of it in a recent interview, but his play tonight shows intensity. He picked up 3/4 court on D too. Mitchell's intangibles really benefit the team as a whole in addition to what he brings individually.

 

[Tetsujin]

Point Center Alex Len.

 

[The_Jamal]

Metu with the Harry Giles pass...

Nice

 

[Tetsujin]

Davion reads backside action really good for a rookie.

 

[mac]

Remember when we got that coach/trainer and PPat cos Cousins?

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Damn, I better call my dad and offer condolences haha.

your dad's gonna be ok

 

[Tetsujin]

P-Pat is a dude who gets considerations as a floorspace not because of the results but rather because he's willing to shoot any ball that comes within ten feet of him.

 

[SacTownKid]

This is a the first real learning experience for Davion. They are digging into him hard on screens and sending doubles at him on the other end. The NBA and college are two entirely different beasts for sure.

 

[Tetsujin]

Remember when we got that coach/trainer and PPat cos Cousins?

Feel like that was less Cousins and more the Kings wanting to dump T-Rob as soon as humanely possible.
