We were looking steady at 6th, with a decent chance to jump to 5. Now we still have to play Memphis and phx and rockets not trying. Welcome to the 8th pick kings fans.

Or Chi, or any other team sans Orlando (they seem to play the full allotment). 2 games is the difference of 4/5 to 7/8 now

Joeger knows he doesn't have to sit the main guys to lose in the 4th. Just watch.

I hope..

sorry

No!!!

Oh well, the Kings youth brought home the W, I'll take it.

Awesome to see Nigel play. He didn't hit his shots but he showed that he's a great fit for the team. He made Dave Joergers offense run smooth with this spacing and screening.

If the lottery is rigged as some people claim, Kings should be awarded with a top 3 pick because of anti-tanking :roll:

I’m not sure it’s entirely up to the coach. He doesn’t play the lineup if directional advice doesn’t come from higher. If they continue this they will win these next few against Phx/Mem

They believe creating culture is worth more than the difference of the draft slots, for whatever reason. It hurts, but what can you do?

If its Fox, Bogdan, and Buddy winning the games then you live with it.

It sucks....but you live with it.

Markannen, Booker, Jackson, Smith aren’t playing down the stretch.. Its a judgement call

Being a fan of this team

i'm with you on that. I know it's our rivals but still. That all but ended any chance we have of moving up to 4th or 5th. 4 games left and we're 1.5 games behind Dallas and only .5 games better than the Nets for 7th. Of our 4 remaining games 3 are very winnable (at PHO, at MEM, Hou resting starters last game of year). We could very likely end up 8th. If JJJ returns to school options will be pretty limited at 8.

The depressing thing is that if the Lakers were at full strength we probably lose the game so i can't take too much from the W/L result.

De'aaron struggled but i love the fact that he's not shying away when he's not shooting well. He got even more aggressive with game on line. He also somehow was also a +15 tonight.

The announcer hit the nail on the head: Bogi simply isn't shooting enough. It's weird. In a game where we barely break 80 there's no reason he should have only attempted 7 shots in 30 minutes. He's probably our best scoring option. Whether it's him being more aggressive or more creative plays being called for him he needs to be shooting a lot more next year. Nigel Hayes took as many shots as Bogi tonight!!

And none of those teams can match what the Kings are brewing.

Now if it was Temple, ect winning then I'm right thete with you.. But its our core. We are developing who we have.

If we end up picking 7/8 we just gotta hope like hell Trae and/or Sexton get picked early so a big falls to us.

At this point i'm worried about Joerger wanting to win all 4 remaining games to 'go into the summer with momentum'. I can see it now.

Post #34 » by **City of Trees** » Mon Apr 2, 2018 4:48 am

For all the complaining I'd just like to point out that tonight Joerger had both of his two-way players in the game at the same time in the 4th.

We're playing for odds, not slots.

Bulls and Nets play each other back to back.

Mavs play Magic and Suns.

Nothing is set in stone

Typically I agree but with 4 games left and seeding so tight, we should definitely be playing Cooley sampson Nigel and bruno.

We play PHx/Mem/Hou(resting at home)

If they try to win, like tonight, they can win all three

kingjawn100 · Post #39 » by **kingjawn100** » Mon Apr 2, 2018 5:37 am

Yeah...last 4 games we should play starters first half and Cooley-Sampson-Bruno-Nigel-Frank for the 2nd half

I dont know how we could go into next year saying WCS/Skal is our starting frontcourt (its the glaring weakness of the team right now). Will be interesting to see who returns/how minutes shake out if we draft a big. Rookie/WCS/Koufos/Skal/Harry. There just arent enough minutes for 5 guys who are nearly 7 feet tall.

I've posted Willie's shot splits some days earlier. He is awful in everything except dunks.
