Crazycanto 1,261 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Has always been one of the best per-minute players, high FG%, rebounds, with one block potential, likely good enough for your end of the bench big. Absolutely torching the Nuggets tonight, if Walton was smart he'd be starting over Dedmon even when Bagley is back. He may still outproduce him off the bench. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I love Holmes back to his Sixers days but Walton is one of the worst coaches in sports. I will continue to ignore all Kings because of him. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Johnnyapplebot 1,544 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Dedmond looking like his last name out there like a dead man. Holmes is killing it. I wish they would switch their roles. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BMart519 291 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Holmes is perfect off the bench or feast on scrubs and then have him close. Have Dedmon worry about defending the other teams starting bigs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BMart519 291 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 I am wondering with bjelicia starting as a stretch 4 is reducing the need for dedmon shooting in the starting lineup. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IDatDude 1,474 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 (edited) We loved Holmes in the 215 during his stint here. Played his a** off every damn night, very very high motor guy. You could say his defense and pick and roll work with Fox kept them in game tonight. Typically...you’d think he earned some mins after this performance tonight, but Walton’s such a damn weirdo coach 😕. Worth an add for as a nice stream this wk with lil sneaky upside. I hope he at least earned more bench mins after tonight edit: forgot Giles coming back. Would be tough to crack 20 mins. Edited October 29, 2019 by IDatDude Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigballers4life 9 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Drop Dedmon for Holmes? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nica4two 240 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 I think Holmes' line was a bit of an anomaly. While we know he's known to put up big lines I think it's matchup-based, wherein his athleticism is enough to take advantage of some bigs. In this case against slow a** - and out of shape-looking Jokic - and Plumlee. Add the fact that the Kings are the worst team run by a bad coach (and I'm a Kings fan, sigh), then you have a recipe for nothin' too great. Streamer at best in my eyes. Firing Dave Joerger was a big mistake. Dropping Dedmon for Holmes is like substituting a poopy-flavored lolly pop for a dingleberry muffin. 1 1 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bruceleroy7 104 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Lets all hope for a Montrez Harrell situation. Dedmon can have the 18 minutes starting, but we know who the real dog is 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
t0087669 142 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 how about his long term value when Bagley returns? Walton loves to play small with Bagley at the 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MWon 1,736 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Ah, Holmes is such an excellent per minute guy, and it's always fun to see him on the court. Crazy good energy and it really showed today - Basically the only guy who shot well and with Fox, kept the game at least sorta close against the deep Nuggets. Also impressive defensively against Joker. Highly doubt his minutes get above 25 a night, but I'd grab him if they get to that level. Dedmon looks so bad right now and Walton absolutely needs to change something. Holmes looks like a fine flier at least until Bagley returns. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lifschitz 2,246 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 he had a disgusting poster in this game.. I don't trust Walton whatsoever. Holmes is pretty talented and has never been given a fair shake at a starting chance, he's worth a flier, but I'm a bit worried once Giles is back this turns into a 3 headed timeshare because Walton is clueless. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Johnnyapplebot 1,544 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 I made the move and picked him up. Walton is an idiot but dedmond has looked bad and they havent won a game yet. You would think at the very least holmes gets more minutes juat for his energy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
