Love this new Kings team
Yay. Got first comment and view
31 pts bench 🎉🎉🎉
Ellis, LaRavia, Lyles, and Valančiūnas make for a pretty great B-team. Hopefully Carter can rehab and get to his best level, but until then I think we really do have a chance if all of our guys really buy into Coach Christie's hustle based defensive identity with ball movement and a diverse shot selection headed by 3s. This is really a hard task, but we have the potential for it. Most of the club can shoot, andif our guys can really go all in with this mentality we can go far. But only if we can get to that point!
Monte got the depth we needed and replaced deaaron who wanted out with another star. Let’s gooo kings!
Happy that this game was won by the kings! Great comeback win🟣🟣🟣
Gotta come out more aggressive tomorrow. Dallas isn't gonna allow it. AD or no AD
10:54 oops! Lol
yes finally we can move on from Fox and hopefully go to the playoffs
Start Keon over Zach Lavine 100% our bench has defense so adding a little shot creating with Zach off the bench would be nasty
We need to get all three games, before the All-Star break, Go, Kings….
We finally have depth at the center position and not immediately cooked when Sabonis is in foul trouble. JV coming in when Sabonis picked up his 4th was such a relief for us.
What would you think about derozen going into the bench for trae lyes because it seems like there are too many players on the starting lineup that need the ball and trey can help defensively while the bench also gets even better with derozens iso play?
The upcoming schedule for the rest of this month is super important, we got a game against the mavs and one against the warriors who are both competing with us for a playoff spot and the rest of the games are against bad teams, we really gotta make sure to win the gimmies
🟣
We got a lot of toughness on our team now. It was great to see them beat the Pelicans.
Bench saved us
Now that we have a normal bench scoring… u start off the podcast with, the bench bails out the starters?? U can say the bench did great instead of downplaying the starting 5. Keegan & Sabonis had crazy good games
For now, don't start Ellis. He will still play a lot of minutes. Doug can use rotation as each game situation dictates
Sabonis has GOT to stop getting into foul trouble. That's been a problem for the last few years and he consistently leads the league in total fouls or foul-outs
Keon, Jake and Keegan…we might have a bright future on our defense game.
I would take DeMar out of the starting lineup for Ellis. DeMar coming in for the second unit could settle that unit down and he would be the scorer for that unit. Plus, DeMar and LaVine together seem to be redundant and they should be separated. Tough call tbh. Doug has to go with the hot hand and the one who is making the difference on the floor.
Start Keon over Monk and let LaVine bring up the ball. The offensive was absolutely non-existent in the first quarter. Forget defense, Monk/LaVine/DeMar doesn't work not even offensively.
I don't think Keon should start. I think he's now what Monk was for a couple of years: an excellent 6th man when we need to have a solid bench that'll come in the clutch
You must start Keon so the team don't always fall behind 20+ points and have to play catch up the entire game. This will not work against above average teams. I mean, tonight's win was just barely scraping by a team that didn't have their full lineup.
Kings still need a backup PG. Give Ben Simmons a shot. He plays defense and can distribute.
This team seems mentally weak at times…a lot of times. Its like they dont believe they belong…or maybe they're just undisciplined…I feel like domas, monk, Murray and Lyles should have enough synergy from the past 2 years to keep things flowing and set the tone for the new guys…but instead it's laravia & keon being the spark…big ups to doug for making the right adjustments
We're trash, it's the pelicans bro
It's still way to early, but more games to come and it will test the limits on the rotation for Doug
He got to rotate LaVine, Deebo and Monk for Ellis mins
