Good start. Fox looks good. Thompson and Harkless are killing me. I'm starting to see the Celtics fans complaints

Moe now looking crisp as he did in the preseason

Dame and CJ can't handle Fox. De'Aaron can do whatever he wants out there.

The Kings have a hole in their Defense with bigs rolling wide open down the lane

Kings adjustment is leaving the corner three open. Yikes

Walton keeping Holmes out still with 4 and a half left in the game for....some reason.

Tyrese fell into the black hole that is the starting SG spot. Even got pulled in the final minute after that awful turnover. Just one game but the Kings have struggled for years to get solid production from that spot in the line up. Something I'm keeping an eye on.

Walton pretty consistant at never playing a center 30+ mins. Holmes played 29. Would much rather if that's the plan, saving 7 mins for the end of the game

How did we look defensively?

Rotation without Bagley looked solid.

Tonight's Buddy is the Buddy I can get around.

I'd much rather that just not be the plan, and that we just play Holmes real starters minutes.

Over all not good enough, but there were encouraging parts for sure.

Agreed, gotta think Holmes should be playing 32-35 minutes every night and we have enough depth that if he needs to play under 30 a couple games here and there we can.
