KINGS defensive mistakes vs. PELICANS | January 7, 2024



KINGS defensive mistakes vs. PELICANS | January 7, 2024

Awful game the kings are in their stupid drop coverage so Keegan Murray’s trying to get in the gaps well I got to be there with my feet set look at Keegan Murray’s feet right here you’re not in a defensive stance and you’re moving towards the ball as this pass is getting

Kicked out pump fake go for Trey Murphy two such an easy double team Mike Brown angers me so much Keegan Murray can just get down and double get that dribble picked up Harrison Barnes immediately rotating once the dribbble’s picked up everybody else rotates from there or we

Can watch Valen junas go to work on sabonis this whole game angered me it’s just you’re Chris dwarte I’m not three quarters in the post without backside help I’m underneath and battling look at dwarte right here trying to three quarters the post so now Ingram’s going

To catch this a little rip through moves get you off balance right here that’s easily to get you in the air another rip through move and I’m in the paint for two Harrison Barnes your help is in the middle of the floor right there with dearon Fox what are you doing why you’re

Making sure Ingram’s going away from the help now now you’re on your own what Mike Brown is awful first of all Keegan Murray trying to ice the screen sabonis has got to get underneath the point of icing a screen is keeping Brandon Ingram to the sideline so sabonis is late

Getting underneath so Brandon Ingram’s in the lane so now you’re gonna have to rotate on a pick and pop Davon Mitchell’s got to be up and rotating over to alen chunis and then you just rotate from there Keegan Murray would end up in the corner but Davon Mitchell’s in the paint Mike

Brown hedging this hand off I’m not giving up open threes sabonis is up the sidelines right there I’m pushing m to the sideline Kevin herder’s already coming in backside up you’re not going to have to be there long this the second mccum hesitate the sidelines right there

I’m going to be able to bump you back if I’m sabonis but nope let’s just give up open threes this is a dis I don’t know what sabonis is doing here if he’s hedging or trapping either way you cut the dribble off at the point of the screen CJ McCollum cannot turn the

Corner Malik monks and backside out for Larry Nance Jr’s role look at this you let CJ McCollum easily turn the corner he had this is bucket every time no what dearon fox is doing here are you icing this screen then javil McGee needs to get underneath it looks like dearon

Fox is just leaning towards the screen early this is pathetic mccollum’s right in the lane my what are the Kings doing they switched this screen so why you not switching at the point of the screen dearn Fox is coming over to help javil McGee will be fine taking herb Jones all

Right and then Malik Monk’s gonna get underneath Larry Nance Jr but look at this you wait till they’re in the paint so herb Jones so not only is Herb Jones right underneath the basket you switch so late Larry Nance is open too this is do have to switch this this is off a

Late handoff so I’m not going to be able to ice it javil McGee’s got to get up here dearen Fox got to take Larry Nance okay Sasha venkov you’ll have help everywhere venkov will be in help dearen Fox be in help but he switches what is

Malik monk supposed to do here does if he doesn’t step up Larry Nance is wide open if he does CJ mccollum’s wide open stop running drop cover Harrison Barnes is trying to trap Brandon Ingram I’m up I’m up if you trap and Brandon Ingram is able to turn the corner you are

Guaranteed to be giving up points and then Kevin herder’s got to rotate to one passway to Hawkins Sasha venkov over to Larry Nance but it doesn’t matter so no one’s rotating and Harrison Barnes is letting Brandon Ingram easily turn the corner this is a disgrace this is very basic down screen right here

Harrison Barnes needs to be attached and showing so Brandon Ingram can’t curl you don’t do this Brandon Ingram curls this is two points every single time first of damont sabonis is coming up to trap too early if that’s what he’s planning to do or hedge whatever you got to wait for

Ingram to come off the screen like you’re coming out there’s no screen Brandon Ingram hasn’t come off the screen so now you come to double once that dribble gets picked up though okay stop I’m not jumping up and down the dribbble’s picked up so now I’m coming

Back so bankov can get back to the corner like now you’re just doing Hopscotch guarding nothing so not letting bazanov get back Harrison Barnes is going under this screen damont sa bonus has got to get up you got to jam the screener so Harrison Barnes has a

Path to getting under you you don’t touch Valen junor look at how far under Harrison Barn’s got to go now just awful just drives me insane if you’re Keegan Murray sabonis is coming to help you I am over forcing Ingram to where my help is look at Keegan Murray you’re

Making sure he can go away from help get over there look at this you this is just pathetic this is a poorly coached disaster sabonis comes up to trap so Keegan Murray’s got to move you got to get to Larry Nan junor Harrison Barnes L both Pelicans players

Two passes away you come in trap and no one moves so now the Pelicans instantly have numbers and they’re scoring how poorly Co sabonis is playing up on the screen I’m up I’m up I’m paralleled to Valen chunis I gotta cut Ingram’s dribble off stop see if I’m up right now

And I’m hedging I cut that dribble off right there Harrison Barnes comes in backside help but I’m not gonna have to be there long once Ingram hesitates I can bump Harrison Barn’s back but it’s taking you forever to get up here so you’re not even leaving so these

Backside Defenders have to DW Barnes have to stay there for an hour and now it’s just swing swing if I’m Keegan Murray no no no no I’m never I’m not bodying up Brandon Ingram away from the ball I’m underneath the three-point let him in the gaps and

I’m coming through with him on this fake handoff right here but you go over the top so you’re screened and now Chris D got to step up and McCollum can beat him back door pitiful first of all Keegan Murray is going to get beat because again he’s bodying up Brandon Ingram out

Just guard just show your hands and slide your feet you’re bodying up Brandon Ingram he’s going to easily be able to turn the corner okay so dearen Fox does a great job getting in help right here a great job so Chris dwarte you do not need to be coming from the

Weak side corner to help like Daren Fox got the you’re just doubling now for no reason stay out this is just enough to make you go insane you’re vzan off I’m up I’m up I’m up I have nothing but help in the middle of the floor why are you backpedaling

What are you Mike bro the kings are in a zone so Keegan Murray’s getting screened here Malik Monk’s got to guard the ball Keegan Murray’s underneath volen chunis right here okay like Malik Brandon Ingram can’t just go to the middle of the floor here and then Malik monk

Immediately reverts to guarding no one up guarding the ball so Keegan Murray’s underneath see me valun is essentially screening two kings players so now it’s an easy overload Swing Swing open you need backside help if doing anything other than switching a ball screen that’s why I’m icing here because

Where’s Larry Nance going I have a backside Defender you’re in your stupid drop coverage look at this where’s your backside help it’s air so now Larry Nance is catching this everyone’s open herb Jones on on the Corner’s open Dyson Daniels is open everyone’s open it’s a disgrace this coaching staff’s terrible

So first of all damont sabonis isn’t even seeing the ball I mean look at his eyes you’re not seeing the ball now Malik monk should be sprinting back here if you’re sabonis I want to force Ingram to the middle of floorida that’s where my help is okay but you’re going to let

Ingram go the other way and you backpedal which is insane the help’s got to come from Keegan Murray because if his feet are set and he’s in defensive stance he can stunt and recover it cannot be coming from the weak side corner obviously you’re not recovering Kevin herder’s trying to play

The gaps on Brandon Ingram that I’m getting underneath I’m switching here and getting underneath you’re going over the top so now you’re going to be late getting in the gaps which means your feet are going to be going towards the ball on the kick out and Jordan Hawkins is open

Pelicans 133 – Kings 100

  1. Why would anybody want to listen to this raving lunatic? No team or network would ever hire this guy with these serious anger management problems.

  2. we must rename to the Sacramento Pillows. the softest team in the nba.. bar none. brown is is like a marshmellow. mark my words this team is going no where under mike brown. Mcnair has no backbone.

  3. This is a comedy and a tragedy. Love the passion and content. Glad to know I’m not the only one screaming πŸ˜‚

  4. There was no defensive mistakes!!! THE PELICANS IS JUST A MUCH BETTER TEAM! 4-0 AGAINST THE SAME TEAM IS NOT A FLUKE!!!
    Ps: Dude you gonna pop a vesselπŸ˜³πŸ€£πŸ˜…πŸ˜‚

  5. It's what happens when you have a team full of players who don't prioritize defense. A defensive comedy show…
