Has Lou Williams looked like this all season?

I posted something earlier about trez is a negative without kawhi amd in this game, it's showing. He has 16 but fox is getting in the lane at will now and dribble penetration leading to threes.

I wish the clippers had Marc gasol. I'll take Marc over both of our centers

No, just the last six games.

It's actually embarrassing that it takes injuries, a Warriors-esque three-point shooting performance by a lottery team, and a large deficit against said lottery team for Doc to finally try something outside of his usual rotations.

Least we tried but the confidence in the deep ball is super high

Its on pg to be more aggressive. I wonder if he's on a minute restriction

Was kind of odd that he finally went big when we are getting killed with long perimeter shooting :lol:

That's Doc for you. Consistently illogical decisions.

They're getting dribble penetration which is leading to kick out open threes. Plugging Zu in there stops the dribble penetration.

You have to give Amir and Walton a look just to have some fresh faces

As you know, whenever an opponent draws the Clippers, magical things start to happen.

This season, Kings are averaging .352 in 3-point makes, 18th overall (Jazz lead with .384).

Highest makes: 20, twice (vs. Rockets in a win, 45 attempts; vs. Raptors in a loss, 44 attempts)
Highest attempts: 51, in a loss vs. Heat (made only 13)
Highest efficiency: 0.581, in a win vs. Hawks (!?)

In their first game vs. Clippers, they could only muster 8 of 28, and they lost.

Today, they've made 15 of 25, 0.600.

Would not be surprised to see the Kings have a season record in makes and efficiency vs. Clippers.

Clippers still have that Lob City mentality: not taking opponents seriously. They could inadvertently punch Sacramento's ticket into the playoffs for them. And what if they draw them in the playoffs, and Kings use Clipper's complacency against them.

Knowing how this season has gone, I don't have a good feeling about this. I really hope it's just a precaution and not a longterm injury. :noway:

They are on a whole new level of confidence at this point. I thought we would try to punish them
Inside as a counter but we missed some good looks. Second half should be fun

We should just get Shamet the ball for three on every single possession and hope variance works in our favor at this point.

TheNewEra · Post #37 » by **TheNewEra** » Fri Jan 31, 2020 5:08 am

We are missing our gimme plays like tip backs and open jumpers the rust is real

Tough just have to hope someone gets hot now

Every team in the league should do nothing but shoot threes against us. We won't guard them.
