[Game] Kings @ Lakers - 3/15/16 - 7:30 PT, 10:30 ET

[Capt. Factorial]

I guess I missed the press release about the Lakers picking up Panda Friend.

 

[VF21]

In response to George Karl's comment about defense:

"We're talking about defense finally? (Slight eyeroll...) Why are we waiting so long to talk about defense? We've been needing to talk about defense for quite some time. Coach talked about Seth being one of the top defenders back about game 30 but he didn't play. I don't know...it's like crossed signals with me. It messed up my brain."

 

[Glenn]

I've always liked Doug Christie, but never more than just now as he brought rational thought to talk about Demarcus Cousins. Interesting that he stresses there MUST be communication between Karl and Cousins. They don't have to like each other, but they have to come together for the good of the game and the team.

He said a few other things like WCS has a big upside that might make a few fans heads spin.

Bobby and Doug are great additions to the broadcasting crew. Probably has something to do with the fact they bot played basketball at a high level.

^^^^^^ There ya go. Where's Seth?


Give Seth 20 minutes and Willie 25. Stretch your coaching chops, HofFamer.

Oh, I wonder if he'll wear THE shoes?

 

[VF21]

It's pretty clear Doug is not the president of the George Karl fan club.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

You mean Wild Bill? Hasn't he been signed all season?

 

[Capt. Factorial]

You mean Wild Bill? Hasn't he been signed all season?

He's called "Wild Bill" too? I don't know, maybe Ron-Ron has been signed all year but I don't remember seeing him play. 'Course, usually when I remember something it's wrong, so...

I call him Wild Bill, because his middle name is was William.

 

[BamBam52]

You know when a washed up Ron-Ron is starting for the Lakers, that it shows how terrible that team really is

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

So far, not terrible.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

So far, not terrible.

Clearly you are not talking about the Lakers.

 

[jcwkings]

Willie OWNS Julius Randle(who is usually pretty good, at least of late)

 

[Sluggah]

This feels suspiciously effortless.

 

[Glenn]

So far, not terrible.

Control your excitement, big guy.

 

[Glenn]

We need a 22-0 spurt to pay back the Lakers for eons ago.








It's funny. Honest.

 

[Sluggah]

Lakers announcers mentioned that if we win this game it would be the first time in franchise history that we've swept them.

So, we're due!

 

[steelevt]

As a kings fan, I don't really like big first quarter leads.

 

[Glenn]

I don't think the Lakers are going to score 30 in the 1st quarter.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

I don't think the Lakers are going to score 30 in the 1st quarter.

I don't think the Lakers are going to score 30 in the first half.

From Wikipedia:

On September 24, 2015, World Peace signed with the Los Angeles Lakers, returning to the franchise for a second stint

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

It's crazy that we're killing the gd lakers, and the only Kings playing poorly is the meal ticket.

 

[Spike]

As a kings fan, I don't really like big first quarter leads.

Or second quarter.
Or third quarter.

Hell, even big fourth quarter leads are shaky.

 

[VF21]

Lakers announcers mentioned that if we win this game it would be the first time in franchise history that we've swept them.

Doug and the other guy also mentioned this in the pre-game. Said the Kings franchise hasn't swept the Lakers franchise since 1960.

 

[Glenn]

It's crazy that we're killing the gd lakers, and the only Kings playing poorly is the meal ticket.

That happened once before. Not sure what it means.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

We need a timeout. We are beginning to Laker it up out there.

 

[VF21]

We need a timeout. We are beginning to Laker it up out there.

Yeah, like that's gonna happen.

 

[VF21]

Hey, George Karl? Hello? This lineup sucks rocks.

 

[VF21]

Thank Naismith for the commercial break. Somebody wake Karl up...

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

That happened once before. Not sure what it means.

I don't think it means anything, to be fair. Cousins has had a few games where he started out slow, and still finished with 22/10. Not worried about him.

I'm more worried about this lapsed intensity by the guys on the court.
