I don't know if it's all on doc but because they are putting together a team without any concept of a team? it looks like a bootleg team USA that loses to team Australia

Hard to say. They roster is weird, but they don't run much of set plays either.

aaaand they lost to the Sacto Kings at home for the second time this szn :lol:

watched bits and bits of the game. Clipps are just such a different team from last szn. last szn they were all about hustle and grit, now they are one of the lowest energy teams in the league. they don't seem to play hard unless they're losing in 4Q. and they're not very good enough to make a comeback half the time.

Giles though.. he ain't bad at all. Bogdanovich looks like he could've been a difference maker for the Lakers. all in all Kings have nice players.

Wouldn't mind picking up Giles for change

that was such a good gamble for the Kings. then they decided not to retain him long term after he's finally coming around? is also such a Kings thing to do :-?

Think we could get Buddy for Nunn/Robinson and change too... but maybe we want to save assets for bigger fish

it seems his team held him in low regard, possibly due to his injury history. alas, it is quite disappointing to see.

Anthony Davis is the most overrated player in the league

Quite a few Lakers fans had him ranked as DPOY after 1st week of season. Hands down.

Thoughts?

Celtics really thought they should defend James in the post one on one

He plays like a person who used to be a guard that accidentally grew very tall but refused to transition to be a big. Esp. on offense.

His shot blocking/altering is elite but all in all he's a little softy on that side of the ball as well.

Yes he plays like a guard, but at the same time he's one of the worst passers you'll find with his type of usage. He was a point in HS, but can barely make simple reads in pros
