Sexton is officially out with a case of Davionitis, a.k.a. “rest.”

I think that might be four consecutive turnovers while trying to pass to Holmes, since Memphis.

In the Memphis game, I think his teammates were trying to get him more involved and maybe forced a pass or two.

Hopefully not, but the Kings 3PT shooting hasn’t been there and they’re making way too many turnovers. Jazz have lost 4 straight so you know they’re bringing it this 2nd half trying to put an end to their slide

Doubt it. Tankathon (just one spot of course) has Murray going 16th in their current mock draft and the Kings have the 20th pick right now. I’m betting Kris moves up as the year moves along.

I watched it three times in slow no and Keegan did not foul him. Had Lauren not kicked out his foot there would’ve been no contact. Keegan was not under him; it was a weird angle but Lauren kicked his leg out. Even on the last shot, Lauren kicked his leg out again.

I thought the fact that Mike Brown didn’t take a TO there really helped the Kings more than the Jazz after Markannen’s 3 FT’s. By late 3rd, the Jazz still had 5 TO’s before the mandatory kicked in. The Kings had 3. The game finished with the Kings having 1 and the Jazz taking all of theirs. FWIW.

The Jazz PBP folks (Bolerjack, Bailey and Holly Rowe) are huge homers and they were talking it up like it was incredible short sighted reffing against the Jazz. In reality, it’s just a tough game to officiate.

Bench has been highly productive all season, just one of those games. Good to see the Kings find a way to win despite the lack of bench production + the high turnovers.

The Kings got killed on points off turnovers tonight, too. Lost the 3 and FT battle also.

This team has really excelled when they keep the turnovers to an average margin, don’t get cooked in transition and hit their 2’s (when they get them) and their 3’s. The Kings tonight just cooked from 2 and that’s what really won them the game. The Jazz score more points in the paint than the Kings, but tonight the Kings outscored them in the paint 52-48. The last 4 points? De’Aaron Fox’s dunk and GW layup.

Good to know the starters are really bringing it. Just hope they have enough gas in the tankfor tomorrow night. We somehow have to get over that inability to get 5 games over 0.500.

The Kings are 9-8 against the West including the win tonight. That’s going to help you a long way towards securing a top 6 playoff berth.

Did anyone else think the inbound court length pass to Markennan by the jazz was a foot foul with his toe on the line under the basket? It was only on for a brief second, I’ll have to look at it on UTube. Could be I had a bad angle on the couch…

It is a bit weird that the refs have been calling the smallest foul, travel, or carry this year (which I completely support) but they don’t call the FT lane violations that occur on 80% of every FT attempt and they don’t call inbounding violations. Sabonis gets away with it at least 5-6 times a game where he jumps with both feet towards the baseline but inbounds the ball before he lands out of bounds.

At the end I was screaming then cursing then cheering. What a great two wins against the Jazz.

Does the hate for the L*kers extend to all LA teams? Because the hockey Kings are tied up at the start of the 3rd period
