Tanks for the memories
So there’s Hope?
Gallo del Cielo likes our chances.
Really.
Kingsguru21 agrees with Gallo.
Bluejohn is simply hoping for an entertaining game…..win or lose
Blue John is wrong. He should be hoping for a win because that’s the point.
Bluejohn is never wrong……..many times he’s not right
Kingsguru21 knows and understands the sentiment all too well.
We have a 100% chance of pissing off at least some segment of the fan base tonight. Go Kings!
Domas vs Isaiah Roby? Please feed Domas the ball every time down.
Lawd, Domas’ handle is wonderful.
Gotta give Gentry some credit for switching up the starting five.
In with Lyles
Foxs three’s…sigh!
It’s frustrating… to say the least.
Very. Especially since he obviously hasn’t worked enough on his glaring weakness.
Though I’ll give him
credit for the mid range improvement
I’m suprised you’ve used Fox and credit in the same sentence. But, it’s a fair point nonetheless.
Sabonis creates separation and has a wide open hook shot every time, why does he try to back his man down even further?
Because that’s who he is.
I’d like to see him hit that 4 ft hook shot if he’s open instead of trying to get closer to the rim
Understandable. But that’s my point: That’s who Domas is, for better or worse.
Wonder if he’ll add a mid range and/or 3 ball over time.
Hopefully mid range. 3 ball? Doubt it.
Me too. Hopefully decent FreeThrows and mid range. More importantly, fucking trying on the D end…always
Here we go with the wide open 3’s. Haven’t fixed it yet.
Does Lamb shoot every time he touches the ball?
If the Kings can’t shoot, they need to get to the basket and draw fouls. This team just can’t shoot. Shooters have to be a top priority for Monte this summer.
I will say this: Your point isn’t being overlooked.
Yeah, Kings just can’t pull away from anybody. Can’t keep up with opposing team’s 3’s.
Just a thought: I wonder how many 10’s of thousands of shots Davion is going to get up in the off season?
10’s of thousands. At a minimum.
Every single day.
Domas is doubled while the rest of the Kings are standing around. I’m starting to agree with so many here that a new coach is an absolute necessity.
I’m incredibly shocked Domas has ever picked up a tech. Ever. The guys demeanor just doesn’t suggest it’s ever likely.
Refreshing, isn’t it?
Honestly, no. But it speaks to his character generally speaking,
I was actually referring to Cousins..
Cousins is so long gone he no longer matters IMO.
Yes, I hated him from the beginning. Quit watching the Kings because of Cousins.
But he doesn’t really matter anymore either.
Refs have been calling some real garbage on Domas
LOL @ Jones hitting Fox diving for that ball.
Barnes ability to get to the FT line is wonderful. I just wish we saw this more often.
That’s all and good, but would rather see him hit more 3’s.
What a putback by DD!!!
DiVincenzo got the ????????
DD has some hops for sure. Nice hustle
It is clear that Fox has not learned how to play at an NBA level. Never had any NBA mentors around. Hopefully that learning curve is steep.
Really, wow
Yeah really. Still living on raw talent without an understanding of the team game.
Ok, sure
I’d love to see a coach like Malone etc/someone who holds him and players accountable, especially on D.
And I think Fox would really learn if he had like a Sam Cassell on the bench teaching him. Like Cochie used to do.
Barnes is such a work horse
Yes, but I believe The Kings still need to try to move him in the off season.
At least the game is tied at half. That’s something, right?
That is something. Its looking positive.
The ‘old’ Kings might be staring down a double digit deficit.
Oh, oh
Alexander is so smooth
Think the Clippers would still like to have kept him?
Not if they win a ring with George.
DDV not getting much play. Guessing he’ll start the 4th
DDV is definitely not healthy
Why Fox didn’t throw to Davion in that break? Lame.
Last Fox irritation – go get the fucking ball on rebounds and loose balls. He never goes to floor. Just watches
Gentry with an impressive “DON’T BE OUT-TANKED” halftime speech.
You cannot deny Domas!!!!
Domas has 7 TOVs. That’s an issue.
Davion is electric tonight.
I don’t get why he ever gets less than 30. Stupid. At the least he will develop with minutes.
Playin is a joke. Plus Mitchell is a bit of a rhythm player. And great D.
Davion….yeah baby
HB doin’ work!!!
Davion’s hand is ok, he looks like terrific tonight.
2 in a row
Let’s go 2nd unit!
DD for the trey!!!
This looks more like it..after all, this is a bad team that’s short handed.
Grant: Deaaron Fox is takeing over the game ladies and gentleman
Me when we beat the Thunder tonight – 😀
Me when the Thunder draft Banchero, Smith, or Holmgren – D:
Nice steal by Fox. Looked like a Hali steal
DD doin it again. Shooting well tonight
Looking real good, lights out.
Oh man…..DD can sky
Ok, Sabonis time
Loving Trey Lyles tonight
At least you love him one night which is better than no nights.
Some nights I stay up cashing in my bad luck.
Some nights I call it a draw
And with (20?) games to go he may love him again
Well, it’s his first start, so it’s love at first start.
Fair.
Surprised OKC hasn’t emptied the bench yet.
They aren’t down enough yet.
They are down enough to take the L though.
Fair.
Domas is a great passer
Kings playing with some swag.
You know how how it is….when you’re so used to losing that win a game it’s like winning the Superbowl.
Feels like it, lol
Kings better not blow this in the last 2 seconds
Ok, from now on, start Lyles, and play DDV the entire 4th.
I’m down with that as long as we have the same results.
Trey Lyles game was Kyle Anderson-esque
If ever there was a hole to fill it’s the power forward spot on this team. Wouldn’t it something if the Kings found their man in Lyles.
Loved the way the Kings played tonite, including Trey. I am so over 1 game saviors. How many have we had over the years? It would be great if Lyles can be the 4 that we need. Color me sceptical until he shows out over the rest of the season.
With a $2.4 mil team option if he continues to contribute the Kings wouldn’t be risking any cap space by picking up the option if he proves out… I hope he does.
