[Game] Preseason Kings vs. Lakers, 10/14/21 7pm Pacific 10pm Eastern

[Tetsujin]

Davion's D is special man.

 

[Sluggah]

Mitchell all over the place

 

[Tetsujin]

TT with the grown man bucket.

 

[Tetsujin]

Melo draws a foul in the way that isn't supposed to be a defensive foul anymore.

 

[SacTownKid]

Man, I'm not sure I'm gaining confidence in Walton figuring out how to make Tyrese, Fox, and Mitchell work to their max potential. He's still not even really trying them out and this is preseason, when you should be kicking the wheels on that.

 

[Tetsujin]

Moe passed up an open layup to hit a tougher one in the lane for some reason. This second unit with Davion/TD/TT is energetic.

 

[Tetsujin]

Moe and TT is a really interesting modern NBA defensive front court, especially on a second unit.

 

[Sluggah]

Could we be…fun?

 

[Tetsujin]

Tristan runs rims like it's his once chance to run from the Kardashian family.

 

[SLAB]

Could we be…fun?

Scores2.0?

 

[Tetsujin]

These bench lineups have all been four plus defenders and Buddy Hield and it's worked as well as you could hope.

 

[Tetsujin]

LOL Rondo with the nice vet fake against Davion that worked so well that Russ literally ran into him.

 

[SacTownKid]

You must be a confident or delusional coach to be running a Westbrook/Rondo combo out there. Yikes.

 

[steelevt]

Lol. Perfect ending to the quarter

[Tetsujin]

Davion almost dunked that drive.

 

[Tetsujin]

Bron shouldn't be able to move like he does at his age.

 

[mac]

give me some Tyrese + Buddy lineups please

 

[Tetsujin]

Tyrese looking uncharacteristically sloppy tonight.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

He has a knee injury.

He is a knee injury.

 

[Entity]

Hali is a turnover machine at the moment. Preseason form I guess

 

[joemama]

14 point lead cut to 3

 

[SacTownKid]

Tyrese looking uncharacteristically sloppy tonight.

He got squeezed out of the rotation early too so him sitting that long won't be good as far as being warmed up and ready to go. This should be a concern. We saw him get squeezed in favor of Harkless last season and in this game already. Harkless has looked good but this is entirely Waltons MO.

 

[Tetsujin]

LOL they left Richaun off the graphic

 

[SacTownKid]

14 point lead cut to 3

The Lakers went small and are ironically showing you why most teams don't have 5 centers. lol.

 

[Entity]

Geez Hali it’s getting worse.

 

[Tetsujin]

Luke apparently just gonna be fine leaving Fox on the bench.

 

[Tetsujin]

Tyrese forcing shots and getting lost on defense. This is not great.

 

[Entity]

Luke apparently just gonna be fine leaving Fox on the bench.

A lot of talk about fox and Hali backcourt. Right now and this preseason is much rather have buddy, Davis, mitchell out there.
