Christie starting DeRozan on Williams defensively sort of says it all.

Lay up line for Sacramento. Vuc has been great offensively this season, but sucks to watch our paint defense.

Yeah

I have nothing to say in his favor. I just wish he would raise his arms.

Pat being aggressive. Nice to see even if the shots aren't going in.

They managed to fit every single dunk DeRozan ever had for the Bulls into that short tribute! Amazing!

(Just kidding Deebo I enjoyed watching your retro game mastery and positive attitude)

2 games in a row. Hopefully Billy does not sit him 20 minutes.

When he actually playing let him play. Encourage it

Heading into the trade deadline, Ball playing well will probably alter the mindset for AK, IMO. I think they're going to keep this team and try to possibly add to it.

We're better record-wise than we were at this point last season and they were all-in last season. I would be surprised if AK doesn't push for play-in even if he got excellent offers for Zach & Vuc.

I can never get over how much Horton-Tucker looks like Barkley on the floor.

Speaking of THT, I think people here don't particularly like him but I do. He's 100% a ball-hog but he's pretty damn effective. Per 36 he's averaging 19, 6, and 4 on extremely good shooting percentages. At 24, I think he's worth locking up cheaply and trying to develop into a 6th man.

Which shows you how quick things can change in the NBA


Dead coach bounce.
But that record definitely didn't reflect the talent on the team.

I'm skeptical anyone other than Lavine plays with effort 2 games in a row.


I think Patrick will get 6 rebounds and 2 successful dunks.


That would be a personal best wouldn't it haha

Monk asked for a screen to get Lonzo switched onto him. Don't see that happen often.

Sacramento has actually been scoring a ton on Lonzo gambling for steals all game, I counted 10 points on layups on Lonzo gambles.
He's a great defender but SAC knows exactly what he's doing.

There is growth in parts of Pat's game, minuscule but it's there. His passing has been good as of late, his shots not falling but he is making the right passes.

Even though we have similar records, I think the Kings are a better team than us. A win today would be pretty solid.

Why they are fully healthy and hot.


We are missing Ayo and White. They are just a team.
