Game 2 vs Portland: Bigs Struggle, Dame Time

The Blazers spoil opening night at the Golden One Center, beat the Kings 122-112Kings 0-2 to start the season. It’s going to be difficult for the Kings to compete with teams that have superstars. Dame and CJ took over in the 4th quarter and put the game out of reach. The Kings had stretches in the the 3rd quarter were they played good defense, both in the half court and transition. And they still managed to give up 37. De’Aaron stepped up and tried to carry the load but it wasn’t enough.Much like Buddy on Wednesday, Bogi had a hot start and a cold finish. Rough night for the bigs. This isn’t gonna work for the next 4-6 weeks. Team is headed to Utah to play the Jazz Saturday night. Check out The Podcast with Damien Barling for daily sports talk that ventures outside the Kings and in to national stories. Connect anytime. 24/7 text line [email protected]: @damienbarlingTwitter:@damienbarling
