Tag: Marvin Bagley

One of the best things you can say about Marvin Bagley right now, and there are a lot of them, is that if you aren’t paying real close attention, he kinda looks like Karl-Anthony Towns. He’s KAT with a hair puff on top. Their respective games aren’t very similar other than that they’re both bigs…

You don’t hear much about rookie hazing these days. It used to be that we would get treated to videos of rookies getting their cars full of popcorn, or we would hear stories about rookies being forced to drop everything they’re doing in order to buy donuts for the team, but in today’s anti-bullying culture,…

How many points per game would Marvin “Marvelous Bags” Bagley have to average for the rest of this season (post-All-Star break) for people to consider him a better rookie than Luka Doncic and therefore deserving of the ROTY of the year award? Twenty points per game is obviously not going to do it because that’s…

Marvin “Marvelous Bags” Bagley did not, in my opinion, have a very good exhibition season. Kings fans agreed with me; he looked lost and ineffective. If they weren’t openly wondering why their team drafted him over a certain other highly regarded Euro, the thought was there in the back of ther mind. The doubts that…

There’s so much hype regarding other parts of the Sacramento Kings, and so much hype around other players drafted around him, that I feel like there’s not enough hype remaining for Marvin “Marvelous Bags” Bagley. For a while, that was fine, because he wasn’t playing particularly well, and not in a way that deserved much…

Imagine my surprise when I pulled up this game to find that the legendary Kings commentator Jerry Reynolds had come back for a game. Kings games just sound better with that old guy saying his old-guy catchphrases and describing slam dunks in the corniest way possible. Doug Christie brings a different flavor to the broadcasts…

You know what? If Marvin Bagley were to ever open up a restaurant or deli called “Bagley’s Bagelly Bagels”, I would patronize the ever-loving FRICK out of it. We’re talking a daily customer from day one here, provided the deli was opened in my local area and not somewhere dumb like Sacramento. I would eat…

Maybe I’m just a huge dumbass, but I didn’t realize Marvin Bagley’s listed height is six foot eleven. He doesn’t look that tall and he doesn’t play like he’s that tall. Was hair included in that height measurement? Because his hair easily adds two or three inches to the top of his head, and it…

I get uneasy when Marvin Bagley does those running hook shots off of post-ups. Those are the kinds of shots that marginal big men take because they’re too weak to take their defender to BBQ town. Very few “good” players take that shot with any regularity. I’m guessing that Bagley takes those shots because he…

There are a lot of people hyped for the Kings right now. And for good reason: they’re not terrible! But how much more hype would there be if they had, say… Luka Doncic? Let’s pretend for the sake of argument that having Doncic wouldn’t affect the hype that De’Aaron Fox is currently generating. I’m thinking,…
