Buddy just watched that ball go past him
Bagley love fest tonight…and so far it is deserved
Spoke too soon. Bricking 3s
Buddy is terrible with the rock…
Yeah, he’s got no business handling the ball
Could’ve gone for the and one, instead get too many passes and force Bagley to put up a brick
Ref just called Belly “Buhjellica”
So Tissot watches are garbage then?
5 minutes until half and 8 comments? guess this one is a barnburner. or my browser isn’t picking up the thread correctly
Kayte just keeps talking during the game action.
Bagley with no time awareness at the end of the first half
The fuck was Bagley doing?
Either he didn’t know how much time was left or he didn’t want to take a tough shot. Either way, it was pathetic.
He’s got 12 points, 5-10, not a bad half. If he could only hit his free throws, his scoring avg would be a couple of points higher.
Overall, he looks good tonight.
Developing.
Kantor took at least 4 steps on that waltz to the basket.
This is a weird game… clocks not working. Dame only has 21 points at the half… Wacky.
Really annoying to see Fox jogging back on D several times, not squaring up his man, not getting into a defensive stance. Just not giving a shit.
Bagley is clueless on D but at least he really tries. Fox, not so much.
He’s on vacation mode
He’s been so for most of the season.
I know it’s easier to crap on CoJo, but Fox has been just as bad defensively.
I hope he hasn’t reached his ceiling
Especially annoying when he let’s the ball roll to the halfcourt line, when bringing the ball up.
Not a good look.
God I miss seeing Tyrese, it’s just not the same without him.
How bout the Wiz beating the Clips
Cojo time!
The long-awaited Kanter-Bagley matchup!
Did anybody test Bjelly for playing under the influence? How many times is he gonna trip over his clod hoppers.?
Go CoJo! With the 3!
Weird game.
Hey Fox, stop complaining and hit your free throws.
Missed free throws are like walks in baseball, they always come back to bite you in the ass.
If Dame doesn’t start taking charge soon the blazers gone lose
And there you have it
That’s the Fox I like to see just make your free throws
Fox vs. Dame is fun
Are we the only team without a jersey sponsor?
No, plenty of teams have gotten rid of theirs
Dame and Fox would have been funner
Holmes bringing it home!
I could easily beat Derrick Jones jr in arm wrestling
CoJo missed by 3 feet!
A can a week is all we ask
Smoked?
Damn Dame…
Oh man Cory Joseph got his grapes crushed
Glad we drafted T-Rob.
But Jason Thompson wasn’t gonna resign
How tf are we getting smoked by Kanter?
Don’t sleep on Kanter. He doesn’t play great defense but drops double-doubles on the daily.
A rich-man’s Bagley.
Lol
Kanter just stuffed the Kings 3 straight times.
The Bagley-Kanter comps can stop now.
4 times
Because Kanter is better than Bags?
That’s what I’m saying. I’ve seen a few too many Kanter-Bags comps in this here community.
So Kanter’s better right?
Yes……
Dame train
Dame is so clutch… so impressive.
Kings getting real sloppy down the stretch.
Buddy off the foot!
TAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANKANGZ
Lmao Buddy’s handle strikes again! Dribbles ball off his own feet for the turnover
This is bad
That little pep talk the blazer gave the ref paid dividends.
Yeah, that really caused the crappy execution down the stretch by the Kings, didn’t it?
Welp if you don’t like that…
The tank is alive and well
Some people shoot themselves in the foot. Buddy dribbles himself off the foot.
classic.
And to think I was given shit for comparing Bags to Kanter. Wow. Really?
I’m hoping that Bagley can one day improve enough to be at Kanter’s level.
Lol
Any team in the NBA would rather have Bags. AMIRITE?
Narrator: he was not right.
To be fair
1) This is vs the Kings
2) He’s a walking double double but he’s getting big minutes out of necessity on this team when he’s normally a 20 minute matchup dependent big on a playoff team. Not exactly a needle mover.
Whatever. This is Kanter’s 7th double-double in a row.
Wow. Amazing. 2020 Whiteside says hold my beer.
Wow. Go look up Kanter’s numbers this season. He ain’t no Whiteside. He’s a rich man’s Bagley.
I have Kanter on my fantasy team so yah 12 and 12.
Whiteside did 15 and 13.
Wow.
Wow. I have Kanter on my fantasy team as well. And I’d rather have him than Bagley. Whiteside did 15 and 13? Lol. What like once? Kanter wasn’t even drafted in my league but Bags was. Wow.
Whiteside did that for a whole season on the Blazers.
And nice you can have your own preference. I’ll take the 21 year old for the tank than the journeyman big.
And wow.
Kanter’s been doing it for years. I’d like to see Bags do it for one.
Top 5 pick here we come.
Let’s see how we look after the trade deadline.
I am submitting a patent request for the term TanKangz to the fandom
We lost ð¢
We gained! ð
I was hoping for a game like this… Glad I invested.
Zero Fox Given….about being a competent free throw shooter.
but this time he missed it in purpose
I try and convince myself that he misses them all on purpose.
Cleveland can’t break away from us. Let’s gooo
Question. Do the Kings practice missing free throws?
No. It comes naturally.
Gotta say they are good at it
Giles was outstanding tonight.
I hope there are new team members after this break. No pressure Mr. McNair. You’re only running things now right?
Welp, off to go down the lawncare youtube rabbit hole, yet again. Hopefully we are on the + side of multiple trades over the next week.
The only differences between Dame and Fox: Dame has has the CLUTCH gene. Fox: Not so much, Fox can’t make his Ft’s, Dame shoots almost 93 Percent, Dame can lead the Blazers to 6 games over .500 with their 2 best starters out because of injury. Fox can almost put up a triple double in a losing effort. Ham and Kayte will say they didn’t win because A. it was a B2B B. a weird season C. Haliburton was out or D. All the above.
We had seven guys in double figures tonight and still couldn’t win. But we were 10 for 16 from the line and Portland was 24 for 25 from the line. How many games have we lost from the free throw line?
It’s really quite hilarious. The Blazers scored 123 and their second best player is 40 year old Melo. If Mccollum and Nurkic were playing this Kings teams would have lost by 20 or more. This can’t be emphasized enough. This team feasted on teams that had key injuries almost every game they played on that winning streak. Make 70 percent of this roster avail. 14-22 looks a lot better then this team really should be at this point. They look more like a 10-11 win team.
