Play In Game 1: #9 Kings vs #10 Mavericks 

Post#1 » by codydaze » Mon Apr 14, 2025 5:05 pm

Kings will be hosting (get that play in money) the Mavericks for the first play in game this year. Even without Kyrie this Dallas team is still tough, especially if they have all of their bigs healthy and available, so this won't be a cakewalk and the team will still need to come out with focus and get the job done.

Warriors and Grizzlies are facing off in the 7/8 game and we will take on the loser of that one if we can get past Dallas. The storyline game would certainly be playing the Warriors yet again for the third straight postseason in a row but I think I would much rather see Memphis than Golden State.

These are two winnable games with the way Memphis has ended the year and I don’t really respect their talent level too much and we are 2-1 against them

Definitely winnable if Morant ankle is still lingering come Friday.

Ball movement is terrible right now. It's one pass/handoff, iso and try to score. Swing the ball around!

Just blow it up and trade anyone and everyone we can. At least our eastern conference brothers got blown out today as well.

I don't live on the west coast anymore. I'm not staying up for this team. Damn damn damn. Can't believe what a short ride that was. They have to blow this up imo

Going out sad. We're stuck with Zach but you need to move everyone else outside of Keon/Keegan/Carter. Go young and restart.

Such a depressing feeling knowing even if a full tank were to occur Lavine will be around.

Keegan's meek 2-6 and Keon's D on Klay this game, doesn't lead one to herald them and those are consistent issues, but their young..

Return to Sacramento Kings
