Should be stomping them already but keep leaving three point shooters wide open
Let’s go Keegan, we need 3 pt mojo back
God, the difference in talent is stark.
I’m really not trying to get ahead of myself with Keon. He could just be an unscouted player who’s having a nice stretch, after all. But oh man does it really feel like the Kings got something here.
If it feels good it’s probably good. The proof is in his play and he’s playing great. He’s been heading upward slowly since he transferred in college.
Also trying not to get ahead of myself. But Keon’s maturity and progression feels like it’s unlocking this entire team right now. He’s becoming what we wished the Kings would trade for the past two seasons – a defensive stopper who still can operate within the flow of the offense and score if absolutely needed.
Also, while I wish Huerter well and a quick recovery, I can’t help but think that he’s been officially Wally Pipp’ed now. (Those who aren’t students of baseball history, Google is your friend).
Getting outhustled, threes not falling, bad D, gonna be close all game
Jamius Ramsey sighting
Looks like the Kings are playing a college team. Only being ahead by 5 after one is kind of disappointing.
Keegan has some poor body language after missed shots. Like his confidence is shot. Missing wide open 3s all game so far
The Raptors have already given up.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Kings win this one by 40.
I also wouldn’t be surprised to see this go to OT.
Monk taunted his own bench. LOL. That was hilarious.
It’s gonna be that kind of game.
That Raptors dude with the red headband moves like Shaggy from Scooby Doo.
The white Raptor won the “Be a Raptor for a Game” fan drawing.
Grady Dick, the 13th pick in the 2023 draft?
You keep up with the NBA better than I do.
He has the same haircut he got before his first day of kindergarden.
did you see his sparkling red suit on draft night?
Raptors broadcast still running a 10 second free throw spot featuring Kyle Lowry for some reason
Bad team without any of its starters playing to an underwhelming crowd being unceremoniously dismissed by a far better opponent. I want this game to stay exactly this boring.
It’s been about 5 minutes since we’ve had a bucket
I’m baffled why the Raptors traded for Olynyk.
Why would a plummeting team want to add a player of his talent?
Fewer ping pong balls. It’s a move that the Kings of the past would have made.
I think he signed am extension too, so maybe looking at next season with the healthy compliment of players?
Third bad pass and steal from Monk
Kayte and Kyle just having a casual conversation as Keegan gets a chase down block at the rim, no mention of the play.
They both need to go find a different profession.
Lol, bench booing Keegan for the boring dunk
Just glad he made a bucket
The Raptors are just going through the motions. Terrible energy.
The Raptors and their fans have surrendered this one in the 2nd quarter
Can a team forfeit at halftime?
This has been the most pathetic effort I’ve seen from any opponent all season.
That, my friends, is how you close out a GD quarter.
For a more exciting game, Grambling State vs Montana State in the First Four is tied at 70 with under a minute left after Grambling was down 14
Overtime!
yeah, I got money riding on it …
In other news, for those wondering where our bad former Kings big men have gone, Metu just signed a ten-day contract with the Detroit Pistons.
Maybe we can see some Colby Jones tonight.
Clear the benches by the mid-3rd – the Raptors already did in the 1st. Get the starters some rest for the SEGABABA.
and Mason Jones
Did Kayte literally just talk about a play from the first half while the video played of the play in the first half during the first possession of the second half?
yes
That was insane. I couldn’t believe my eyes.
Fox getting lazy with passes.
Domas got away with a travel.
One more assist for Domas and then he can sit the rest of this one out.
triple doubles don’t count unless Luka does them
got it!
dude, that was an awkward head collision by Gueye.
Keegan was unselfish to a fault there, passed up two opportunities directly under the rim.
man I love watching Davion accelerate
Raptors broadcast is talking about hockey, it’s officially over
If the Kings don’t bring in their bench soon, I think that qualifies as trashtalk.
Kinda hard to know when, their whole team is made of benchwarmers
maybe to start the 4th, start resting some players?
Just tuned in, good to see a blow out for once. Close games are entertaining and all, but this will be great for the teams confidence
Kayte just cuts off Draper and goes on and on and on and on about the trip.
Colby Jones sighting
Give us Mason Jones!
It’s nice that we’re finally taking care of business on a game we should win. With the starters getting rest for the 4th quarter, they shouldn’t be tired going into tomorrow’s game. Let’s get the W and move on to Washington.
Jalen Slawson sighting
Half-n-half “Sac-ra-men-to!” and “Let’s go Raptors!” chants
Garbage time guys falling apart again. Raptors starters are still in, don’t let this become a reverse Minnesota incident
still a 27-point lead …
I mean, I’m not worried since the score difference is so big it’s gonna be impossible for the Raptors to catch up. But yes, they’re definitely playing sloppy.
What a dunk by Slawson!!!!
Followed right after by a dunk by McGee.
40th win, baby! Still in the 6th spot! Light the beam and let’s beat Washington tomorrow!!!!
Obligatory
nice ballerina leap by Colby Jones at the 1:09 mark.
