[Game] Sac vs. Orl Jan 7th 7PT/10ET

[Suicide King]

We start on probably our easiest part of the schedule this season and we get our #2 pick back in Marvin Bagley. Hopefully we can start this stretch on the right track with a victory tonight.

The Magic have a new coach this year in Steve Clifford who used to coach the Hornets. I don't see this game as a gimmie since the Magic are playing much better than last year with some wins against quality opponents. Boston,SAS,76ers,TOR, and Lakers x2 are among some of their wins this season.

I hope to see Fox play at pre-injury levels, some Giles time, Marvin's motor,a strong follow up game from Justin, and most importantly a damn win.

We could use a strong game and a WIN. But I don't want Joerger to want the win so much that he thinks he can't afford to give Giles some playing time. We can have our cake and eat it, too.

 

[gunks]

Bags is back! Eeeeeeeeeee!!!!

Should be a win, Kings have been playing great lately, just going against some top tier elite teams, unfortunately.

Aaaaaand, I get to watch this one!

Go Kings!

 

[RaY Z]

Kings have been winning against teams they should beat this season. So hopefully the trend continues.

So Bagley is back for sure?

Hope so! We've missed him dearly.

Kings by +10 points.

GO KINGS!!!

 

[Kingster]

Other than getting the win, the things I'm looking for:

How does Bagley look?
Does Giles get time on the floor?
Does Jackson continue with his aggression from the prior game?
Is Bogs still doing the dribble, dribble, dribble thing, or moving the ball?
Is Fox starting to look healthy?
Is Shump playing?

20 20 watch for Vucevic

Theory on Bogi's mini slump since the game winner: NBA is a mental game, including learning how to win. A shot like that is an absolute peak experience. There's no shame in saying it's challenging keeping perspective when you hit one like that. In fact the very confidence that allows him to WANT that shot, and MAKE that shot, is not a "fix-all" attribute... you need to learn how to handle it. I fully expect Bogi to return to normal form very soon. Testosterone levels go through the roof when you hit one like that.

 

[The Hammer]

My ticket source just called... they've been given lower bowl tix by the org so I'm heading to the game!! Last time I went was the first of the 19 pt comebacks...

Unfortunately you all won't be able to enjoy my patented, endearing mix of douchebaggery and eternal optimism this game...

GO KINGS!!!!

 

[Sac.1989]

As long as we have the energy and play as we have this month we should be fine. I want continued upswings from JJ and Harry

 

[Suicide King]

Would be nice to get a blow out win at home. Don't think we have had one at g1c this year have we?

 

[SLAB]

As long as we still get Giles.

Get a dub

 

[Kangztillidie]

What channel is the game on?

 

[Kangztillidie]

Or what station?

 

[Kingz19]

Kings wearing home white. Undefeated at home in their jammies.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

What channel is the game on?

NBC Sports California, as normal, on my provider.

 

[Kangztillidie]

NBC Sports California, as normal, on my provider.

Not for me. Super weird

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

What channel is the game on?

NBC Sports California, as normal, on my provider.

I was, in fact, under the impression that it has been years since Kings games have been on more than one channel, locally.

 

[SLAB]

Did someone cut Fournier’s hair in the dark?

 

[Capt. Factorial]

I was, in fact, under the impression that it has been years since Kings games have been on more than one channel, locally.

I believe it has been a few years since there have been (rare) games on News10. I believe TNT games are exclusive, but ESPN games are not?

 

[Kingz19]

Buddy already sweating like Patrick Ewing

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Buddy shot a three from the right corner (missed) and shot a three from the left corner 6 seconds later.

 

[Dime Dropper]

Buddy shot a three from the right corner (missed) and shot a three from the left corner 6 seconds later.

Never stops moving. His stamina is incredible.

 

[NME]

Fox with the Pick 2's!

 

[SLAB]

Kosta blanking Koufos?

You have to be kidding me....

 

[Kingz19]

One day Willie will finish that dunk

 

[Kingsfan23]

In addition to being subpar interior d/rebounding, WCS has really slowly declined on offense to the point where I don’t like the ball in his hands

 

[SLAB]

You can only have one young big prospect at a time, I guess.

 

[gunks]

Too soft, then too strong...

 

[Sluggah]

KOSTA?! WTF
