Did Filip get injured?

 

[MT Steve]

I hope Will Hardy burned that last time out for the purpose of guaranteeing a loss, because that's exactly what it did.

Lets the Kings intentionally foul and then game over. I laughed outloud when the play involved Sexton penetrating. So stupid.

Why do you need to Google with your TV when you have a iPhone or smart phone or whatever?

It's a Hisese TV and the interface is Google TV for apps.

Geez, there are 3 teams in the EC with records worse than 3-9.

 

[KqWIN]

Close game, but that honestly feels like a 15 point loss given the level of competition.

 

[Thee Idiotic Minivan K]

there is a God!!!

 

[homeytennis]

When did he break a finger?

Last game I believe.

 

[homeytennis]

I believe the last two minutes of that beauty took 45 minutes. The TV stations love this for all the ads they get to run.

 

[Step-Back Lauri]

What an amazing tank job from the half brain Jordan Clarkson.

Things were under control on third. Then JC decided it's his world we live in, and accompanied by Kings improved pressure on our guards it turned into an utter **** show. Its unacceptable how little Collins and Markkanen, and also Flip got involved the last eighteen minutes.

Can't wait enough to get rid of JC.

Don't worry: Washington and Toronto will have to play each other four times.

We all win. More wingstop and Vivint commercials for all!

 

[homeytennis]

Why in the hell are three of the kings top four scores injured this is so freaking stupid. If we win this game, I swear to God I’m gonna go nuts!!!!

The Kings played three players in their rotation that played against the Stars this week.

It wasn't the play. The play broke down and that was Sexton just trying to do something

 

[Elizah Huge]

Filipowski a team high +12

 

[Agent#00]

Lauri took 8 shots and clarkson 18 and were back!

 

[jazznik]

The Jazz lost because Trey Lyles, struggling all season from the 3-pt line, suddenly found the touch and became a sniper by going 5 of 7. Which is random as muck.

 

[Elizah Huge]

Of course the rare negative tweet I send is the one I get engagement on lmao

Are you insane? JC is the perfect tank commander. For 2 nights where he will make you win, expect 8 where he will make sure we did lose !

What's the deal with Flip's free throws? He is currently at 30% for the season.

The "deal" is that he can't shoot. Simple as that. I know it's hard to comprehend since he's tall, white and went to Duke, but it is what it is.

Flip is a talented passer and decent ballhandler for his size, plus he doesn't back down, but it remains to be seen if he's an NBA level scorer. If he gets there, he's a career starter in this league... if he doesn't, he's in trouble. He's not a rim protector, rim runner or an above average rebounder.

Flip is like Luke Walton. A little-bit-of-everything guy who needs to share the court with several great players who get all the defensive attention, allowing him to fill in the blanks and keep the ball moving in creative ways.

It was funny reading tank fans panic on this chat without realizing how decimated the Kings rotation was.

The fact that we lost this game is actually a massive W for the tank, as playing a mid team like Kings without 3 of their 5 best players and with us having rest advantage felt like a schedule W.
