dont know if I can trust Brown’s rotation decisions going forward after playing Metu/Holmes/even Quetta over Len all season (when I was here complaining about it through the year)

Took him a long time to figure it out, but better late than never.

I think more than anything Len knows and accepts his role: set screens, rebound, and take on the other team’s biggest player. Metu took too many outside shots, tried to create, got bodied by bigger centers. Richaun let too many layups go by, quit shooting his high percentage push shot, and appears distracted by outside events. I wish Brown had given more minutes to Len earlier but I trust he had his reasons.

Kings very strong the last 18 minutes. Need to convert better at the rim. 3s starting to fall. This version looks like a serious playoff team.

Monk and Murray (each 2 for 3) contributed the bulk of that turnaround

First six minutes were really rough, thus the doom comments earlier.

Been great since though

Len has been a pleasant surprise the last couple games. Playing well within the offense & providing a big body down low.

He doesn’t look anything like the big doofus we saw in previous seasons or even earlier this year. He moves his feet soooo much better defensively and looks comfortable on offense.

He is rounding into basketball shape and effort is excellent. Going to need his length and physicality in the WCF.

I don’t understand why Holmes can’t see minutes if Len can.

I like Holmes a lot but his effort has been low when he sees the floor save for his one start earlier this season.

Big Body is the name of that tune. We need his size and with some minutes we need his game

Kings rotations getting early rest before tomorrow’s matchup. If King’s beat the weird Mavericks does that put them out of the playin?
