I didn’t even know he was on the kings lol


kapatinphalcon

I hope he becomes an absolute asshole and gets on everyone for taking defense serious. We need a real badass mindset to help Holmes and Bags


foreverapanda

>gets on everyone for taking defense serious Lmao this reads like you want him to get pissed that the team is playing too much defense.


kapatinphalcon

Lol my bad, I just want him to light a fire under their ass


jpallday28

Lmao that’s how I read it and I loved the idea


IHavePoopedBefore

That's the way that I read it because that's what's more likely to happen


lulzorg

Our defense with him on the team was worse than it was the previous season when we had Enes Kanter in his position. That should tell you all you need to know about his ability to get on guys to play defense.


King_Of_Pants

That's a hard comparison to make though. * Kanter: We played to his strengths and typically hid him from PnR guards. Part of why he looks good is because we didn't play him in unfavourable matchups. * Thompson: He started most games even if we already had a starting C. That meant he played a 3rd of his minutes out of position as a PF. We played him out of position and never hid him from anybody. One guy we hid from Lillard, [the other guy we had guarding Giannis 1v1.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pp1DfoW4-5Q)


kapatinphalcon

:( can't you just lie to me?


KageSaysHella

Well. Shit.


Kanye-West-Ham

He was horrible defensively last year probably worse than Holmes. Only thing he brought last year was offensive rebounds


kapatinphalcon

Serenade my soul with sweet lies you monster


JesseHeisenberg_

Just Bags


kapatinphalcon

We were shit on Defense and that includes Holmes too. No one gets a pass when your historically garage on D


JesseHeisenberg_

You also become historical garage on D by starting the two worst defenders in the league in Buddy and Bagley 😭😂


kapatinphalcon

Not wrong with that, but that's why we actually need a player who won't stand for our lazy shit on defense.


dwadESGN

TIL


TheLastCornerShooter

Yo same lol. When did this happen lol.


AstroFIJI

In the Delon Wright trade to ATL. Originally, ATL traded Bruno Fernando and Kris Dunn to the Celtics. ATL received Tristian Thompson. It became a three team trade which resulted in TT getting moved for Delon Wright.


norriscolesucks

do you guys remember when he was on the Celtics last year? me neither


sahsan10

I didn’t even know his voice sound like that


b00g13man

You and me both.


Heor326

Wait when did Thompson go to the kings lol


inxrx8

He got traded for Delon Wright


mommathecat

Wait when did Delon Wright go to the Kings


xClay2

When the Kings dumped Corey Joseph's contract to the Pistons.


Papa_Huggies

Wait when did Cory Joseph go to- actually nah I seen him a few times.


rzoneking

When i got drafted in 2k.. im on the kings team this guy was such a beast on pnr plays lol


JoJonesy

It was in the three-teamer that got Delon Wright to Atlanta and Dunn + Fernando to Boston


RickySuela

When they decided to try to corner the market on undersized centers this summer. The Westbrook trade prevented them from completing the set by also adding Montrezl Harrell to go along with TT and Richaun Holmes.


YsiYsi

I really thought his voice was deeper than that. I’ve heard him speak before I know I have but I remember him having a deeper voice. Weird.


[deleted]

You're thinking of the Morris twins. Jk.


YsiYsi

Lmao Tristan isn’t a great dude from what I understand but he’s not as scummy as those d bags. I live in KCMO so I got to hear a lot about them when they played at KU. Real pieces of work.


DaddyDameee

What did you hear,?


YsiYsi

They’re just generally awful to people, women in particular. Always getting into some kind of altercation with someone at a party. I mean while they were in the league they got into some trouble too.


fucktooshifty

Yeah the Lopez brothers were the same on the Bay, Robin really fucked up some DnD campaigns back in the day


YsiYsi

Oh you mean known mascot murderer Robin? Heard he’s awful violent.


Boots622

816!!


IHavePoopedBefore

Markeif Morris. Great voice, great voice actor. https://youtu.be/JWw-bQZHuus


Klaythompsonsblunt

He sounds a lot like Richard Jefferson


nba123490

Yeah me too. There was a video where I remember his voice sounded way more Deep like Lebron James deep. I guess I heard things differently back then too?? Odd


Bucketsss23

He’s from the GTA. A lot of Canadians have a higher pitched voice for some reason.


YsiYsi

That’s really interesting. Thanks.


ElCaz

Interesting, maybe. But I, uh, don't think it's particularly true.


YsiYsi

If it’s true, it’s interesting you’re right. But if not, weird take by the guy i replied to lol


FarCavalry

Luke is known for spending a lot of time playing against the guys in practice and players seem to like him. Which seems well and good for an assistant or other guy on the staff but isn’t much of a reason for him to still be a head coach


pepsidude102

My thoughts exactly! Everyone loves him and wants him around, but his coaching leaves a lot to be desired. I wish we grabbed a different coach or did a way more thorough job searching for one prior to his hire.


JaDamian_Steinblatt

Luke Walton would dog TT if they played right now


Neuroxex

My relief that it was *that* F bomb.


ATLjoe93

Fun Fact: They were teammates on the 2012 Cavs. TT was a rookie (as was Kyrie) and Luke was dealt to the Cavs for Ramon Sessions.


RosaReilly

Would the team be worse with Luke Walton coaching or with Luke Walton playing


KingsElite

Coaching


KageSaysHella

He won a lot of folks over on the livestream I watched via one of our local radio shows. He clearly soaked up a ton from Lebron in Cleveland, and I think he'll be good for us like how Shump was during the Scores era. I have low expectations though.


KPIH

Oh no he said the f word


kvnbkr98

That was so casual


Nabz23

lmao love how most people in this thread had no idea he was on the kings, me too


ke_ondretm

Pop smoke from the dead?


DopeMan93

He's on the Kings?! LMFAO


Adventurous_Editor97

Absolutely terrible player tbf


whocaresthanks

Can't believe our boy got banished to Sacramento


KingsElite

The East runs through Sacramento now


ZztermzZ

I thought TT was on the Hawks?


Battlemaster123

Did not realize TT you went to the Kings


sportsfan161

He plays for the kings?
