Let's got for losing by 50 this time

We've got'em right where we want them!

Whyachi · Mar 31, 2023

Jabari Walker had some silly looking flops last game. They need to jack him up with toradol so he can hold his ground a little better.

I'm not sure if when you list the guys as "Tank" under the injuries if you're saying they're questionable as far as their availability to play or if you're commenting that tanking is a questionable tactic.

tykendo · Mar 31, 2023

I want to see Jabari find his shot in these last few games. Other than dunks he's been brick city. I feel like he's a better shooter than that.

riverman · Mar 31, 2023

First game I’ve skipped all season. Finding it hard to watch This blatant tank. Not sure I’ll tune in until summer league as it stands

tykendo · Mar 31, 2023

I think tonight will be a closer game. Other than Shaedon, nobody hit shots. Does Nas seem to be fading back on all his outside shots now? Not good. Go straight up my man, please.

All of the jumpers from Nas look like, "Why the fuck did he take that shot?" right now.

I still think people willing to bet against the Blazers should take the Kings even giving up 14 points but we'll see, I guess that's why they play the games... to see if they can lose by less than 14 points.

I just don't remember him fading on his shots earlier this season. He was more straight up. Weird. Got to believe the staff is showing him the film on this.

THE HCP · Mar 31, 2023

I bet the two g-league guys get some run.

I think they'll both get a second 10 day and that will have them finish the season with us. That way we can sit Shaedon and Nas against the Spurs to make sure we don't fuck up the tank.

Light the beam! Light the beam!

A lineup made of our injured list would curb stomp our starting lineup.

Dame, Ant, Winslow, Grant, Nurk > Sharpe, Thybulle, Little, Knox, Eubanks

That's like senior varsity vs. a freshman team.

So he is a collection of mops?

HomerLovesKoolAid · Mar 31, 2023

Mops Walker. I like it, it's gonna stick.

I understand completely. I'm watching just for Sharpe. I love watching young future stars before they have put it all together. It's the classic "will he or won't he" kind of thing. It is personally captivating to me. I might be broken.

HomerLovesKoolAid · Mar 31, 2023

It can be double meaning.

Mops doesn't necessarily mean the opposite of buckets.
Jabari might be Mops because he cleans the boards.

HomerLovesKoolAid · Mar 31, 2023

I'm talking to myself again aren't I?

Mops Walker is a janitor

I can dig it. I was already thinking about the "janitor" connotation there before you mentioned it. Feels intuitive.

blazerfan11 · Mar 31, 2023

Sharpe is out on the court shooting around, along with Jabari Walker and Kevin Knox.

(Josh Hart used to be the guy always shooting before the game.)

On the other end, it's Sabonis and Fox.

Mop-up duty. He mops up at the end of blowouts.
