If the Wizards were halfway decent, they would have a 15 point lead already. The fact that they are just terrible and are up 38-32 right now speaks volumes to the Kings “give a shit” level.

I don’t know what I expected when I tuned in to watch this team flounder like this. I suppose I was expecting almost exactly this. What unwatchable garbage. So glad I have band practice during the second half to spare me from this hell on earth.

Kangz taking and missing their three point shots (3 for 17) at the half.
Why do I feel like they are going to disappoint – and luck into a win they don’t deserve here?

The problem with this team is that it can’t score without DDR/Lavine off the court, and it can’t get a stop with them on it.

Kaytee points out that certain shooters are low percentage 3pt shooters. But she must look at the percentage on wide open 3s, because those are the shots the Kings give other teams.

There were several times where the Wizards had multiple guys wide open at the 3 point line.

I had only today and the Charlotte game as the winnable games for the rest of this season, and they managed to lose today anyway!

1. Good. Hope the Kings lose the rest so they don’t lose their 1st rounder.
2. Hope Sabonis requests a trade out of this shitshow to force Monte into rebuild mode. Trade Sabonis on draft night for a top 5 pick or future first rounders or young talent.
3. Trade off EVERYONE for talent + picks + expiring contracts. Tank the next couple seasons, get top talent + FA signings with cap space and hopefully be back in it in 4 years. But I suspect this isn’t going to happen. Monte/Vivek will cling onto being play-in hopefuls as long as they can because they can’t see 2 steps in front of their own feet.

Love it 100. Whether it will really happen is another.

Like Vivek giving full reign to Bob Myers to gut most of the roster.

Hire Jenkins and do a full rebuild for the first time ever.
