Got an eye on the Wolves game, as a part of me wants them to miss out so we’re not the longest drought, but it’s inevitable

I know it's out of tank necessity but I like that look with 4 6'6" to 6'8" players from SG to C. Bruno, Hayes, Carter, and JJ is a lot of versatility and length.

I thought it was cute we were playing with the Spurs, but now we’re literally taking the momentum

Buddy has arrived for sure. There is no question that Oklahoma Buddy is alive and well.

He’s not coming off the bench for his career. I think Eric Gordon has given the idea to that.. Buddy’s better than Bogdan, and needs to be starting. He may not want to come off the bench much longer. I’d preferably give Buddy/Bogdan a look starting together. Let’s see if Bogdan can hack SF

I've been waiting for it all year and we've only seen it for spurts. If it's a long term contest between the two that's really unfortunate, they play extremely well together.

Willie is looking good offensively, but it's another game where he is never there to help. He does play the game more like a PF. Once a guard gets past the outer perimeter of defense Willie never comes over to contest. He was never going to be a shot blocker but he's better than this.

I absolutely love Jerry. I never want to see him leave. It makes me sad that someone would want him gone.

I like Doug more on the pregame because he's able to break the team down to a T when describing what's going on, why it's going on, and how they can improve things. He was the first person to call out some of the system issues at the start of the year and explain where they were going wrong. Doug is being groomed obviously but I don't mind it being a split so Jerry doesn't have to go on all the way out of the way road trips.

Here's to hoping the Bulls win their next game so the Kings don't have to worry about spanking the Rox to close out the season!

I also noticed they gave Buddy the chance to run point for a bit. They know its his weakest areas (ball handling and running the offense) but I think Coach wanted to see what Buddy decision making and court vision looked like.
MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!

I like the splits. I know Jerry can’t do this for much longer, but I just love his Jerry-isms. He knows the game and he commentates very well. I love Doug as well, but I don’t think he’s on Jerry’s level yet. Doug is better when he’s on pre- and post-game. I don’t doubt he’ll get there, but I just don’t think he’s there yet.

Looks like we are getting either the 6th or 7th best odds.

I think most NBA pundits do as well considering Grant and Jerry are considered one of the best, if not the best team broadcasters year after year seemingly. I know Grant is somewhat controversial off the team mic (to put it lightly LOL) but as someone who didn't initially follow the Kings I can honestly say that Kings fans don't know how good they have it with them. Doug, Kayte, and Koz tops off unquestionably one of the top notch broadcasting teams in all of sports IMO.

We do have it good I agree, nice to know outside people like them as well.

Gerould is also fantastic for the radio.
