He said "play pretend" meaning he's saying what if King's strength matched the rumors.

My answer: King's strength would be over Darkshine, but under Saitama's actual strength. According to the rumors, "Wherever people are in trouble, he dashingly appears and vanquishes evil with a single blow. Then he leaves without even proclaiming his name." And according to King himself, he would run into monsters of Disaster Level Demon or Dragon and it would get beaten while his eyes were closed, so as far as they know, he's strong enough to defeat Dragon levels in one attack.

They could definitely see him defeating Garou before his awakening. Darkshine even believes King is above him, stating that Garou would probably lose before he even got to show his techniques. They probably would think he could defeat Awakened Garou and (if they were aware of Boros power) they MIGHT think he could win against the Dominator of the Universe as well.
