Game 37: Kings (17-19) vs Heat (17-16) 

Post#1 » by codydaze » Tue Jan 7, 2025 3:09 am

Second night of a b2b against a Miami team that has been somewhat in shambles recently. Jimmy will be out serving his suspension but we will also be without Fox again due to the glute issue. Let's hope for a repeat performance like last night.

Offense not looking great early. Need to settle things down and keep the ball moving.

What a weird start.

Shots aren't falling RN. Good looks. Need to keep the energy.

If we can get back go form and start winning again, Keon deserves some consideration for an All Defense nod.

This start is exactly why we need fox. Monk is not a full time starting point guard. He's inconsistent and wild. Love him and last night was great, tonight he's off to a wild start.

I am loving the hard shows by Domas with Keon. It seems like they have a high % of coming up with a steal.

Yeah would have to agree. He missed some really easy short shots. Hopefully he can get it going in the 2nd.

Way too unselfish ATM. Just take the damn easy shots. The passing game will come with made baskets.

That's better by Monk. Now they're into the game, on both ends.

Nah. I now think Boogie is actually Monte. He wants all the 6'4 guards on the court. Only reason Domas is starting is because he's undersized :D

He's a solid role player, and the impact stats are what they are with him.. maybe he has room for growth at his age

Huerter going to the bench for Keon. Think they should try it coming up against Milwaukee.

You almost see the fear on these guys' faces. Like, what do we do now? What, we're open? Ok, let's pass to another open guy.
