Game 16 Thread - Kings (9-6) vs Grizzlies (10-7)

[City of Trees]

Rather get an ugly win than take an ugly loss. I don't know why the offense came to a dead stop the last couple of minutes sheesh

[BoogieTime]

sabonis got gravity in his playmaking all around, other than embiid and jokic don't know who puts up more impact. even with 9 its and the rim protection issue

and barnes back, hopefully has several more in him

This is crazy, we are now tied for the 2-4th seed.

How I'm feeling after this game tonight.. 7 in a row though!

Go ahead and categorize the Grizz as a bad match up problem (when healthy) for the Kings. Ja, Bane, Brooks, JJJ, and Adams. What I'm sensing here is to slow down the Kings you must neutralize Sabonis with size and help D. JJJ and Adams did a fantastic job at times and it's only JJJ's third game played this season. They will only get better as the season goes on.

Kings continue to win while Murray figures things out. If they get Murray back to producing, watch out.

Yeah we sure did seem to have lots of match up problems tonight. Agreed.

The Grizz are a tough matchup for anyone because of their length, athleticism and defensive intensity.

That said you see that the key is to maintain enough of a lead to weather that final several minutes defensive onslaught/put the ball in Ana’s hands game plan.

Nobody can maintain that level of exertion for more than short spurts. Not without getting tired and making errors.

That was a good win. Wasn't their best game, but agree with previous thoughts, Grizz is a matchup nightmare for the Kings.

Fox is on another level at the moment and being complimented by Sabonis and Huerter beautifully.
