So far so good. This is the only way. Monte built a wonky roster, time to play wonky.

Well, the big 3 forced the Lakers to shut down the rest of their starters at least. Victory on test 1.

Kings 116, Lakers 112: The Kings go 4-0 to finish unbeaten in preseason play for the first time since 1998.

One goofy broadcaster good.
Two goofy broadcasters bad.
I think that’s part of the reason this works better. Only so much room for Gucci bags and fish grease.

Kings still haven’t lost since Shaq sold his shares.

Become the first team ever to win a Summer League title and follow it with an undefeated preseason.

Was that 4-5 minute stretch near the end the best defensive stretch in Kings history?
2 almost 3 shot clock violations, a forced double dribble, a block or two. That was pretty fun to watch.

It’s settled. I have to set my expectations and excitement up to unreasonably high levels, not seen since our glorious start with Malone before he got Vivek’d on the alter of jazz!

AD has Davion by a near foot in height. Off Night still denies him the entry pass6’10” Anthony Davis has 6’0” Davion Mitchell on him. Hurry get him the ball. You’ve got to get him the ball, right? Oh #OffNight pic.twitter.com/w8w46SeTdy

Now, the question is whether Luke Walton is going to sink his own ship. He also didn't really go to his top 5 man unit in preseason with Fox, Tyrese, Buddy, Barnes, and Holmes. I have a feeling this Harkless thing is going to be his undoing. Hopefully not but it's leaning that way IMO.
Davion Mitchell 9-0.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with the direction of the team. The depth is apparent and I think there's a pile of guys you can rely on who can carry the offense between Fox/Barnes/Hali/TD/Buddy/Mitchell. TT looks to be reborn a bit, should be a good contributor off the bench. Holmes found himself too this game, was what we've expected him to be the last 2 years.
I think the big question is how Walton handles this depth and if everyone can stay happy. Going to be some games where Buddy/TD/TT/Bagley/Harkless get squeezed for minutes and they have to be okay with that.

Kings coach Luke Walton said Marvin Bagley III was available tonight. Walton chose not to play Bagley after putting together his game plan this afternoon when Bagley's status was in doubt.

17.5 sounds about right.
Can somebody help me understand his corny lines?
"A little room service." What does this mean??
"3 tries for a quarter." ???
"There is so much jelly it can't be jam" ???
I'm not the brightest tool in the shed, so maybe it's just me.

Wonder if a bunch more DNPCDs are the young man’s future.

"A little room service." What does this mean?? I think this means he ordered something up or dialed up a play. Not 100 percent on that though
"3 tries for a quarter." ?? I can't say I've heard him use this one
"There is so much jelly it can't be jam" ??? He uses this when a player worms through the lane. I assume he means they are jiggly and loose like jelly as opposed to jam which is thicker in comparison.

Depends on whether or not tonight was a dress rehearsal. Especially with the arrival of Mitchell going to squeeze someone for minutes and Davis making his best case to be in the rotation.
I've been looking at last year, he runs 9 deep most of the time, sometimes even 8.

I’ve always liked Doris Burke. She’s knowledgeable yet doesn’t try to hard to show it.
