Celtics 128, Kings 75: Oof

The deepest and heaviest of exhales.

No, that score isn’t a typo. The game was worse than the score indicates. If you missed this game, congratulations.

Was anybody else hoping they’d lose by 60?

I was hoping Boston would double up the Kings. It was pretty close for a moment there at the end.

My only concern is that they’ll panic and mortguage the whole future to trade for just about anyone in a scramble to reach the play-in.

yes, what future. and what play in?
NOP close to .500 post 1-12 start. Blazers playing better
Kings best hope is if they can catch the Pacers on the race to the bottom.
Then the better draft choice will give them pause, I hope, about trading every future free asset for Simmonds or Grant or Carmelo.

Not a chance, once gentry put in Queta and King, the two guys who gave a f*ck, I know the 60 point deficit would be cut, as much as I wanted them to lose by 100.

I understand this it is their job but I don’t put much on them.

Their work environment (organization) is a mess. Probably not fun to be there for them.

The players output-will is a direct outcome of Vivek’s horrid organization.

We’ve heard plenty of tidbits about the diminutive piece of shit treating employees poorly.

Unless Vivek let’s a GM retool (he won’t) it’s abject failure forever. Protest/billboard time soon enough.

It says a lot to me that as an employee (player in this case) that you still don’t try to be the best at your job, regardless of the situation. The players effort is 100% in their control, and if they give shit effort like this simply because the environment is crap, then things will never change and all of these dudes need to go.

So when do they fire or trade every single person associated with this team and start over? I’m still in favor of keeping Hali but they are going to need to surround him with NBA basketball players. I’ve never eaten excrement but I’m assuming the taste this team leaves in my mouth is very similar.

Did that a long time ago Napear. Haven’t watched a Kings game in months. I checked out parts of a few games early in the season as I do every year, to see how the rookies look, then reached the conclusion “Nope. Team is still junk” and tuned out again. If it were not for this forum, I would have zero idea about the Kings. I am a former season ticket holder too.

This organization is a complete insult to the city of Sacramento. Sacramento is not the problem, the problem is the Kings organization and in particular Vivek Ranadive. The fan base has completely lost all confidence in his ability to lead this team. His desire to make this team Warrior West has failed and now we find our team in the worst condition since he took over.
I agree everyone needs to go…clear the air.

The whole small-market thing isn’t nearly as big as impediment as it was a generation ago. With social media and other forms of instant “viral” promotion, even small-market players can make big names for themselves. Would Giannis be more famous if he played in New York? I don’t think so. Bottom line is every owner is a billionaire with more than enough money to pay top-shelf talent and build world-class facilities. The difference comes down to execution, and the KANGZ are executing what’s left of their fanbase’s enthusiasm.

Well in Milwaukee’s case they had to have enough sense/scouting talent to draft him at #15 and then build a competent roster around him. It’s a lot more work for them then say a team like the fakers which attract big names due to location without having to do AS much. Small market teams need to try harder but Sacramento gets constantly shitted on because the organization actually looks like it’s trying but has been desperately failing for the last 15 years.

Not even sure what to say at this point. Every part of the basketball organization is an mitigated disaster filled with absolute morons who can’t get out of their own way, from the owner whose every instinct is the opposite of right, to the GM who only looks slightly better than quite possibly the dumbest man to ever make personnel decisions for a professional sports team, to the gutless, no talent players.

There’s apathy, and there’s a boycott, and at this point, I’m in favor of both.

I thought it was an enjoyable game. I say that because it was fun to watch how brilliant Tatum and Brown play, and Williams is a monster down low.

Added bonus, Spurs won. So we’re now tied with them for the 6th spot and have a legit shot of moving into sole possession of 5th after tomorrow night’s loss. As the Pacers play at home vs Charlotte.

Dear Vivek,

The fans would support a rebuilding, passionate 17-win team with a coach who develops players. Please let Monte do this, or replace him if he can’t. At the very least, we deserve a direction. And if you want to sell, we’d be okay with that, too.

Sincerely,

Anyone who ever loved this team

I switched over to the Wizards/Clippers game and honestly, I was happy our team at least had the decency to get blown out.

And to let that happen in a home game, at that.

I follow the Wizards a lot, and there are some interesting comparisons with Sacramento.

Most fans are afraid that Leonsis will do everything to keep Beal happy and pay him the supermax, and will cripple the team’s future to do so.

Beal is viewed as a guy just playing for his numbers and getting paid, with awful defense, so-so BBIQ and mediocre leadership skills.

He’s got potential, does a lot of things other guys on this roster doesn’t do, and he’s still shiny and new.

That about sums it up for me. He’s interesting, but he’s probably a 3rd big man at best. Doesn’t mean I can’t root for the guy.

It boggles the mind to think that it’s actually way harder to build the level of incompetence of the Kings organization than it is to build a dynasty that can win 3 NBA championships in a row.

3+ NBA championships in a row?
Boston Celtics – 8 in a row 1959-1966
Minneapolis Lakers – 3 in a row 1952-1954
Chicago Bulls – 3 in a row 1991 – 1993
Chicago Bulls – 3 in a row 1996 – 1998
Los Angeles Lakers – 2000-2002

15+ years without a playoff appearance?
Sacramento Kings
Los Angeles Clippers

A 3-peat has been done 5 times since 1959.
A 15-year streak without a playoff appearance (not winning a playoff game, just qualifying for the playoffs) has been done 2 times in the history of the NBA..

And we’ll have the all time futility award (16 seasons) in 30something games. Fantastic. Never been done. Never equaled.

Until next season when we’ll stretch that out to 17 seasons.

I feel bad for the players that truly dedicated their lives to mastering the craft of basketball – from grade school to high school to college…probably missing out on a lot of normal childhood to dedicate 10s of thousands of hours to practice and competition. And now they are stuck in this hellhole and just counting the days until they can get the f* out.

Maybe then he will have to sell the team like them aloofs did for financial reasons since he keeps digging the team into the ground and people stop showing up. He keeps stacking the payroll with a bottom of the barrel team. Hit him in the pocketbook and you might just get his attention.

None of us are talking about the biggest obstacle that may be in front of this team

Our ownership is bent on not rebuilding for a reason

If they are too poor to afford multi years of bad tickets sales, they could give a damn about if rebuilding is the right path

We may have an ownership that is too poor to own a team not allowing this team to rebuild in its proper path

This game reminded me of the 60 pt + loss I think Minnesota (or another team) put on the Knicks just completely gave up on Coach Isiah Thomas. I think it’s likely that this is a very similar type of game. The team gave up, they clearly showed what they think of ownership, management and the coaching staff and how much they don’t like being on the Sacramento Kings. Pick a piece to keep, blow the rest up.

I really don’t want to hear that the players called a player’s only meeting. We are way past that.

That’s the problem with players now, they don’t give a shit anymore. This is a game, and they get millions of dollars to play. If they can’t give all of their effort every single night, then they need to go. Can’t win with players like that.

I agree. The Player Empowerment movement has gone incredibly bad for the product, along with all the other ideas to try and help small market teams, like the supermax, etc. I miss the days of players wanting to stay on their original teams to try and make it a winner, unlike now where players chase rings and just want to play with their friends. Hard to root for a team when all the players cycle through every couple years.

Yes. This. Sports was much better when you could associate a player with a team. Now it’s all about the individual. We don’t think of Lebron as a Cav, or a Laker, or a Heat player… he’s just Lebron. To me, Bird was a Celtic. Magic was a Laker, Bradshaw was a Steeler, Jordan was a Bull. It’s not that way anymore. Every season it’s a merry-go-round of who is playing where and that just changes things a bit for my ability to really get behind a team.

What am I rooting for then – the Logo? Just the Jersey? To me, that means I’m just rooting for the owner, and with a guy like Vivek that just isn’t ever going to happen.

He stepped down from TIBCO several years ago, so he has nothing else to do besides own the Kings. Not only can he not afford an NBA team, he also can’t help but meddle in the team, because he has nothing else to do. A bored egomaniac is never a good thing.

I’m so glad I spent the evening attending my high school alma mater where my daughter now attends to enjoy girls basketball. I enjoyed a great game against a rival, great culture, positive crowd, and a win. I much prefer ladies high school basketball more than I do out local professional men’s team.

Starting to feel like Monte is pretty clueless considering I just read your article about fit and now I’m thinking about how entering the year we were all wondering how this team would fit together because it looked so horribly constructed. This dude had a whole offseason to either make this team better or just give up and tank, instead he trotted out the same garbage with pieces that don’t go together. I’m not saying roster construction is easy, or every team would nail it, but I’m not seeing much competence from Monte when I dig deeper and as the season progresses. If he doesn’t do anything good at the deadline I’m basically putting him in the mediocre category with the rest of the coach and GM hires in Vivek era.

It’s hard to figure Monte’s plan. He doesn’t do much. It’s like he’s afraid to screw up so he does nothing instead. To me it looks like he feels pressure to hit a home run, so he is passing on all of the opportunities to just get some base hits. I’m thankful he isn’t just trading role players for other roles players (ala Vlade), and I know there just aren’t many ways for him to attract an all-star to come here, but he really isn’t getting anything done at all other than taking BPA at #7ish each year.

Watched the Jazz play the Suns the other night. Jazz were missing their entire starting lineup. I think they ran out Trent Forest (backup PG), Clarkson, Daniel House Jr. (covid replacement), Eric Paschal and Whiteside.
Jazz second/third string players played the Suns close right up to the end of the fourth quarter.

It’s quite obvious there is something horribly wrong with the Kings.

Monte/Vivek, do you still think this is a playoff team?? This team has never come close to resemble a playoff team. You would need multiple Ben Simmons like players to turn it around. This is another lost season, which this team is too accustomed to. It is so evident that the players are looking forward to either being traded or for the season to end. The team plays with no heart or pride whatsoever. They expect to lose. . By the time the trade deadline arrives, this team will have no chance to make the playoffs. I just hope the FO sees that and blows up this core group. Unfortunately, based on past experiences, I have no confidence that they will. I’m expecting little to no significant changes and this franchise puts us through another 5-6 seasons of the same shit. Please roll the dice to get a Simmons/Sabonis type player or do a full on rebuild. Just do SOMETHING big. This is the first season my family and I have not been at a game. The price of watching a game in person is nowhere close to the product being put out on the floor. Hell, I can’t even watch an entire game on TV anymore. At least we have 9ers to cheer for.

Have we been closet tanking since the Walton was fired, and nobody was told about it?

based off of the comments I am reading it would seem that the general theme is that we are not the best team in the NBA
