What Nobody Says About Domantas Sabonis

[@bakerboy2267]

It's like the Kings combined the Nuggets, running offence through the passing big, and the Warriors, beautiful movement shooting and cutting, and made one of the most unique playstyles of any team I can remember. Love watching them.

[@MrExcessum]

They are literally copying the Nuggets playstyle, while Sabonis does his best Jokic impersonation. OKC and Houston are doing the same. Jokic flipped the league on its head.

I love watching their brand of basketball, great team hoops.

[@raidernation8869]

Your describing the 2002 kings lol. Watch the old tape, Webber and Divac could both control the pace and had better post moves than Sabonis. Peja, Bibby, and Bobby Jackson we great shooters and cutters! The 2002 kings were ahead of their time. They truly started this style of play in the nba, not the nuggets or warriors, so technically the Kings own it. Webber originally didn’t want to play the Princeton offense but coach Pete Carril convinced him that his skills would benefit the team more controlling the game or in the high post, than in the low post playing big.

[@iankinzel]

Thanks for the video, really thoughtful analysis. I also think Sabonis is misunderstood on defense - he's not Anthony Davis, he's not Jaren Jackson Jr., but the advanced metrics and eye test both tell me he's middle of the pack, largely holds his own, and does a perfectly competent job in man-to-man post defense. He's more than held his own in key match-ups with Jokic and AD. He's not going to clean up the rest of his team's messes, but he's also not leaving messes for his teammates to clean up.

Goat season coming up for this guy

[@jgray2718]

I think people underestimate Sabonis because he doesn't dominate a game on his own. He needs a good team and good shooters around him and isn't going to dominate the ball at the end of the game, always take the last shot, or beat his man off the dribble, or dominate in the post. Too many people are hung up on the hero ball of the 80's, 90's, and 00's and think of players who _don't_ play hero ball as mere complementary pieces for the "real" stars. They think of Fox and Monk as the "real" players on the Kings who make everything work, and in a sense, that's correct - Fox would get his numbers even without Sabonis. Sure the team will lose all the time and miss the playoffs _(just like they did before the Halliburton for Sabonis trade),_ but Fox can still score 25 any time he wants so he's the "real" star _(this is not shade at Fox, he's legitimately fantastic, but he didn't win much before Sabonis got there)._ It's the difference between looking at one play or one highlight and watching the whole game or understanding the Kings' system. Sabonis doesn't get a ton of highlights, but he sure piles up defensive rebounds, screen assists, kickout assists, and makes the whole offense run smoothly. He's not usually the one who hits the jumper that puts the Kings ahead with seconds to go; instead he's the one who grabbed all those boards and pushed the pace so the game didn't come down to a single jumper and the Kings won by 8 instead of 2. The box score says he's a superstar and if you watch the games it's clear that he's a critical piece of the Kings offense and defense, but he isn't usually lauded as the hero. He's sort of the ultimate role player, but his role is to do everything except hit the big shot.

GSW also have a switch heavy defence that reduces the impact of off ball movement and there for Sabonis’ passing lanes.

It's 'mandatory' for a Lithuanian to play in your national team. Sabonis skipped last years world games, that's how bad it was.

[@johnthomas1422]

7th in the league in fg%. Leads the league in triple doubles. He's had 49 double double IN A ROW. He shutdown AD this season, leading the kings to their second sweep of the lakers in Sacramento history. He has beaten jokic 3 out of 4 games this season. He's beaten rudy goobert 2 out of 3 this season. The kings have not lost a single game due to Sabonis playing poorly or fouling out all season. He is the league MVP even if nobody pays attention to Sac because without Sabonis, the kings would be where detroit is. Easily this years best player, it's not close, this isn't a discussion, nba fans are simply ignorant. Embiid, the scoring leader, is sitting in 7th place in a much, much, much weaker east. If you think embiid is mvp over Sabonis, you are a 🤡. Jokic isn't better than Sabonis this season, or jokic wouldn't have lost 3 out of 4 against Sabonis this season.

Also Kings need a strong 4 number, not to leave Sab to fight with couple bigs with such a teams as Pelicans.
