Kings vs. Raptors Preview! Will Kings take care of short-handed Raptors?



Kings vs. Raptors Preview! Will Kings take care of short-handed Raptors?

Okay Morgan the King start a three- game Road Trip two of the three teams below 500 and it starts with the Toronto Raptors let me just read you their injury report please the allstar Scotty Barnes out RJ Barrett out yakob purle out Chris bue out Emmanuel quickley out

What’s your first reaction to hearing that kings are going to lose no I’m kidding no uh I think when you do see that and you see these names these are their main pieces don’t play around this is a young team and how many times are we said don’t play around but here’s my

Thing going into a game like this sometimes when you get some other pieces out there you get desperation you get guys that just want this opportunity more than ever and they get to show it off so you have to make sure to still slow down those guys that don’t usually

See these minutes on the NBA floor and I don’t have these expectations of oh this Sacramento Kings team’s just got to get this win so then uh their starters their starting unit gets fresh legs for that first night of a back toback whatever it’s going to be no no no my

Expectations are that the Kings can go into this against the Raptors and really just play hard play their game and work on some of their flaws that we saw in some of these other games against the Grizzlies uh late game execution this game there should be padding but if

There’s not what are you doing better to execute late in games like all those little things is really what I’m looking for the Raptors have lost seven in a row the last 10 games they’re near the bottom in both offensive rating and defensive rating they’re playing a lot

Of young guys right now who are making mistakes but also maybe guys like you said who could play loose for Sacramento respect the game thank you and I understand what you’re saying is like you can’t count on them blowing this team out and chilling on the bench in

The fourth quarter but to be honest if I’m Mike Brown that’s my message I’m going hey we got another game tomorrow I want my starters chilling in the fourth quarter so go out there and don’t play around they played around a little bit last night against the Memphis Grizzlies

With the turnovers the offensive rebounds those almost killed them against the Grizzlies little and that’s the thing it’s the little things and The Grizzlies it’s not like I think so many people wanted to overlook the Grizzlies when they had the 11th best defense uh in the NBA going into last night’s game

Right so like you know that they were capable of getting stopped and doing so many of the little things but the kings are a better team and especially a better team than this Toronto Raptor’s roster and you just got to make sure okay am I putting a body on someone am I

Focused in diving after that loose ball am I focused in making this right pass or this fundamental play all of the little things is really what I’m looking for I want to see keg and Murray get going on this trip too you’re taking on the Raptors the Wizards and then the

Orlando Magic who by the way playing some of the best best defense in the NBA right now and with no Kevin herder obviously playing like you’re going to and not to say Kevin herder’s been adding and be being so productive on the offensive end but you’re just going to

Need other guys to step up and be that threat and Keegan Murray it would be really nice to see him do that so what do you think about this three game Road Trip for the Sacramento Kings drop your predictions below hit the Thumbs Up And subscribe we’ll be live after the game

  1. Just gotta get the job done with these games because we know the other western teams aren’t giving us any room to breathe

  2. Kings are shooting poorly so dont make it a 3pt contest…pound it in to Sabonis and have Fox/Monk be on constant attack. Play D like you are down 10. This has to be a 20-30 pt blowout win. Barnes and Murray need to be aggressive or only take wide open threes…
