In Denver, what do you think? Las Vegas seems to think it'll be a high scoring game (around 119-107, depending on where you look).

Sacramento has some nice young players. I've seen all of their games so far and I enjoy watching them. They seem to have a good future, but if Las Vegas thinks we can score around 120 and we've been holding everyone under 100; I expect the game to be more like 33-23 for each quarter. :wink:

We go from a scheduled loss that didn't happen to a trap game.

There's no such thing as a sure bet but if there was, this would be it. Denver goes 4-0.

Not only is this a trap game, it's a momentum killer. We've had issues with these types of games, even at home. So this gagame needs to be a statement game, we need to POUND the Kings, take them early, take them hard !

We are a much better team and at home court we not choking vs weak opponents like in away games.

The only fear I have is the fact that after the exhausting game vs Golden State, Utah Jazz lose very next home game vs underdog Memphis. But Utah loses their game vs GSW in the last second, which must have a negative mental impact, and also, Memphis is an arguably better team than Sacramento.

It looks like the Grasshoppers are FOCUSED !!

Nice to see Malone giving the 2nd unit some time due to our large lead. Save the starter for their next game. Also good to see Millsap and Murray get spmewhat back on track. Glad to see the trap avoided !!

4-0

Denver is a legit team. This is the year you guys make that leap in the very tough west.
That backcourt can score in bunches.

Curious your guys thoughts on what you saw from bagley?

Bagley looked good when close to the basket.

Gary Harris is ready to lay claim to all star status.

Like what I saw from Bagley, showed some nice instincts, good timing on his blocks. Giles got over-hyped in preseason though IMO.

Morris is really showing he's a player ! I know a lot of people (mostly BOS fans ) think real highly of Rozier, but I like what I see from MM more than what I do from Rozier.

Beasley had a solid outting tonight, playing within himself is paying dividends

While Juancho hasn't been real effective on the offensive end, he has really stepped up on other parts of his game. When his shots start to fall, watch out !!

I've watched every Kings game so far and I really like Bagley. It seems like he'll be a PF but then again, there are teams with rather small centers these days. He can hit a three, but not very often. :wink:

Yeah Monte has been awesome. He's like the anti-Mudiay. Very little flash, but good defense and consistently great decision making. What a difference it makes to have a competent PG running the 2nd unit. I keep having to remind myself that he's essentially still a rookie.
