Not bad 1st quarter for these guys so let see if they can continue the rest of the night.

They can’t. I’ve seen this movie before.

 

[James lamphear]

This getting be a ugly game everyone just sitting out shooting 3 and of course right now everyone also missing.

 

[James lamphear]

The kings shooting 7.1 percent from the 3 right and that very good reason we are winning this game right now.

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

Nurk with the Butch Beard special...

 

[BlazerBeav]

He’s been terrible all season - but RoCo has been GREAT on defense tonight.

RoCo we thought we were getting.

 

[Duckhook]

Tony bringing the Tony Snell energy:
9 min: 0,0,0,0,0,0

 

[riverman]

Roco built trade value the last stretch of games...he's played well

 

[James lamphear]

Well the difference is we shooting better then them. We got 13 assist so that's not bad and the rest stats pretty even.

 

[blazerkor]

Well we're ahead by thirteen but we can't expect them to keep shooting quite this terribly.

 

[Mr. Robot]

chauncey better tell them to lose this game

we need those losses, meaningless wins can only fuck you over

 

[riverman]

Not a bad start but in fairness....the Kings really suck.

 

[James lamphear]

If people don't remember Roco started out slow last year too.

 

[blazerkor]

Not a bad start but in fairness....the Kings really suck.

They don't suck this bad they shoot 40.4% from the field on the season and 34.6% from three. Tonight just 35.6% from the field and an abysmal 15.8% from three. We can't count on them continuing to suck this badly.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Brooklyn went to OT today. Think their stars fly across the country tonight for tomorrow’s game?

 

[blazerkor]

RoCo is shooting 34.1% from three this season getting 1.2 blocks and 1.3 steals per game and is still a top ten player in deflections. I know he's been getting blown by a lot but he's never been a lock down one on one defender, he creates chaos and makes impactful defensive plays. He's been doing that all year.

 

[blazerkor]

Brooklyn went to OT today. Think their stars fly across the country tonight for tomorrow’s game?

Yeah, I think that's SOP in the league. They'll fly here tonight and sleep as much as they want tomorrow until they have to be at the arena.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

SAC announcers described Nurk's last basket as a "grown man play".

 

[James lamphear]

We really playing even game tonight but helps when we started missing the kings haven't took advantage yet.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

I continue to enjoy the play of this team without their two stars.

 

[blazerkor]

We've got an under 10M lineup sighting.

 

[BlazerBeav]

I cannot imagine being a Kings fan. Yikes.

 

[James lamphear]

We have won every quarter so far tonight.

 

[illmatic99]

maybe it's just lamar going on and on about him, but watford really has good instincts.

 

[Mr. Robot]

will nurk get second triple-double of his career

he has one i believe

 

[MickZagger]

Why the hell are we trying to win this?

 

[KSF-ERIC]

Only 3 pages in game thread in 4th quarter. Wow.

 

[KSF-ERIC]

will nurk get second triple-double of his career

he has one i believe

Yes he does.
