Really bad offense at the end of the 4th. Shouldn't go to overtime after going up 9 with 3 minutes left. Needed to find some shots for Bogdan and Buddy.

My expectations of Fox is borderline all star, not superstar. Not that that’s his fault, he’s worth his draft pick

It was easy to predict that Nurkic will play monster game)) We extremely need to find real center before deadline. At least someone like Tyson Chandler. My eyes bleed when I see Whilie playing agains full size bigs. He is totally impotent on both sides of the floor.

We have 2 in Giles and Bagley.

They both are too small and inexperienced right now.

We really miss Bagley. Without him we are a pure perimeter / fast break team.

I hope this game convinces the team to let Willie walk. I would rather start Giles at this point. Nothing can be worse than WCS and Koufos. WCS is probably the lowest IQ player I've ever had the displeasure of watching. It seems like he spends more times caring about his ever-changing-hairstyle and tattoos than actually learning to play the game.

Giles yes. Bagley not so much. He actually surprises me with every game, especially on the defensive end. He seems to be learning defensive positioning quite fast. His decision-making on that end still needs work, but he could start at the 5 and I would argue the Kings would get better on BOTH ends. Giles is looking better, but he defends with his hands a lot and complains when he gets called for using said hands.

Hope we improve in the coming time period

I don’t think Giles had a foul in the last game.

He didn’t and that’s a great sign, but it’s a one-game sample size.

You can argue that all you want, but it doesn’t change the fact that it is a one-game sample size. He’s been fouling it up all season in the limited minutes he’s gotten. The Portland game was a step in the right direction, but that easily could have been a flash and a regression could be coming. Don’t get your hopes up yet. I still saw him miss quite a bit of rotations in the game, but he made up for them by closing the gap and challenging shots with length. If he continues missing rotations, fouls will absolutely be in store.

Giles is built like a quivering leaf, gets manhandled out there.

Yeah but at least he attempts to box out and he can front a bit.

I saw the same missed rotations but I also saw less reaching and moving his feet more.
