get these bandwagon faker fans out of the backshot, f joke
Impossible tonight. They’re legion.
Until this team gives a shit, we should all wear Lakers jerseys to the games.
L*kers fans should do the same for their lousy team!
Would love to hear Lebron bitch about whoever approved this play-in “bullshit” as a 10-seed.
This is the jazz band Vivek wanted
I knew you couldn’t stay away.
{ insert Al Pacino gif “Just when I thought I was out…” }
Apparently Hell is not a place that is escaped from so easily.
Ha! Lol
Had to give you a rec on that
I don’t get TD starting.
Alex Len for the three point contest
Every laker is allowed to lower their shoulder into a King’s defender tonight?
Hali to Richaun just works
If this team was selfless, Holmes would easily lead it in scoring.
Oh so nice to Holmes back
Lot of empty seats even with a lot of Faker fans in house !
Lot of people are in the lobby areas and getting food and drinks..
Theyre loading up on vomit ammunition to spew on the court.
This is first game I can remember in a while where the Kings look like they are having fun on the court
Vogel screaming like he’s worried about his job.
He may have just realized his GM has set him up to fail with the ancient all stars ain’t gonna get it done
Looks like the 2012 USOlympic squad
Get TD out now before it’s too late
Turnovers and ticky tack fouls are keeping the Lakers in the game. Fox looking much more engaged tonight.
Metu. Amazing
I really had hope for TD to develop into something but he is a a much dumber Buddy when handling the ball and can’t shoot. He and Harkless should be on the far end of the bench.
Agree
Kings should be up 20
Lakers have no depth
Hali alley opping dimes
He has no offensive game though
AD in top 75 is laughable.
He looks like he should be on the Kings
Metu looks more top 75 tonight.
I mean he’s better than Russ and Melo were in their prime
Can’t stay healthy. Can’t win a game without Lebron. I don’t think any of those are top 75, though.
This is a good game, but I’m always surprised by how bad the Lakers often look
LeBron makes any team look better.
LeBron is really good
Barkley needs to start calling him “Street Clothes” now.
Metu is on fire tonight
Yeah, we got us a power forward. Getting better every game.
Bagley suddenly wishing he suited up tonight.
Haven’t seen a play like that from Fox in a while
He does look a little leaner and faster tonight, for whatever reason.
I can see this team making a push for the playin if everybody’s healthy
They pic ked AD’s pocket
Liking Matt Barnes as an analyst. Honest, factual catch-phrase free.
Catch-phrase free is good!
Its in his bag
Me too
Lakers bitch on every single play. AD karate chops Metu on the collar and cries bloody murder when he’s called. Such an unlikable team.
Kings need to pick up their defense.
And bench TD.
Kings need to go to the hole everytime now that the Lakers are in the penalty.
Which is worse: A lot of Dub’s fans in the house or a bunch of L*kers fans?
And now it gets real
Kings lost this game in the 2nd quarter when they could have been up 20. But nope.
WTF Fox
Fucking ankles
GTFO THE WAY REF.
Buddy is such a dumb ass
This is going south quick
Kings just standing around watching Russ
The Kings are Buddying the Lakers.
Kings needed to stop Westbrook when he got rolling.
A freaking late call or two every game.
Fox looks like he’s falling asleep on the bench.
This game is over. Good night
37 to 15 in the third? Jesus.
From up 14 to down 13 in one quarter.
Kings defensive collapse in the third quarter happens way too much
This team is mentally weak. Lakers punch you in the mouth in your own building and you just roll over and do nothing about it. Also they’re not very good at basketball.
I can take it if the team plays hard but gets beat cause the other team is more talented. This 3rd quarter was just the Kings giving up. Really depressing.
Turned off the tv. This team needs to earn my attention back. Until then, they are irrelevant to me. Gonna go read a book. Uuughh!
Opponent’s star player out = Kings lose.
How about them Kangz??!!!! Not surprised. Expected.
Hey McNair, DO SOMETHING!!!! This has been your teams identity year after year. Full on rebuild is better than the hot garbage this team puts out.
Buddy is never going to stop killing this team every few games until he’s disciplined.
We have no shooters…draft guys that can fucking make shots.
And they’re going to chuck 10 more threes in the 4th.
My ears bleed when I listen to Draper call a game. I don’t find much relief when it’s Jones though.
Oh come on. Jones is very good.
Nah, not for me. He always seems to almost be a fan of other teams.
I don’t think Jones has called a Kings win this season
By my count this is a 36-6 laker run. Where’s the friggin’ pride, Kings?
They expect to lose. You see the same thing every game. As soon as teams go on a run, their mentality is “here we go again”.
Dang that was a clean block.
Fox is asleep
Has been all season.
Just starting watching. What did I not miss?
Don’t ask
Where is MB3
Out for non-covid related illness.
Get it within 10 and Fox turns it over twice in a row.
This is the most upset I’ve been all season. This is absolutely trash. The Kings are treated their fans like garbage.
its starting to become an every game thing fir me. I debate watching every time.
Good times….
Game turned when Holmes got undercut and Len came in for his short stint.
Funk it. This is Holmes’ team. Not Fox. Not Buddy. HOLMES. And maybe Hali.
We need 14 more Richie Holmes’ on this squad.
So is Fox trying to get traded?
Culture will never change until they bring in a different coach and blow this core group up.
Fox is just not in the damn games. Look at his face.
It’s shell shock. He was for 2.5 quarters.
I’d trade Hali or Buddy for Monk in a heartbeat
Must be nice to play next to three hall of famers.
Monk is exactly the type of player that would come here and forget how to shoot.
Fuck this team
Can we stop with all the jump passes?
Rename G1C to Staples Center 2.0. F it.
Keep Holmes and blow this up. I know everyone loves Hali but I don’t see him as a top tier player. Even in college, he wasn’t very aggressive looking for his shot. He’d be solid running the second team or if the starting unit was full of shooters. Fox…uggh. That’s the franchise player?? Simmons isn’t a strong shooter but at least he makes a difference in other aspects of the game. If Fox don’t score, he’s invisible.
Simmons is a walking triple double.
I hate the Kings, in fact there is not one good thing that I can think about the Kings that I don’t hate. I hate that I am a fan of the worst organization in the NBA. I wish they would have gone to Seattle or some other place. I am fucking done with this sorry ass team. The worst thing is I’ll be back tomorrow night and take this fucking abuse again.
Haliburton has regressed.
Fox has regressed.
Buddy is just a dumpster fire half the time.
Even the new-car smell has worn off Davion.
This team is in deep, deep trouble.
And there’s no solution beside a teardown and a multi-year rebuild. Which would be awful for an already empty Golden1
That might not be too awful.
Full on rebuild is better than a team with no IQ or heart. They have a total losers mentality. At least with a rebuild, you’d have bunch of young guys playing hard. Watching this current squad, can you see them really progressing??what’s their ceiling? A 10th seed?
I don’t think this team gets the 10th seed. I honestly think they are about to get worse before getting better.
I don’t think they’d get the 10th seed either. I think the 10th seed is their ceiling. This is not a good team. They won 31 games last year and all the did was add Len, resign TD, Harkless, Metu and traded for Tristan. No difference makers in that group.
Cool, so in 2-3 years we’ll get a play-in game @Houston?
Wow those guys have all started this year and they’re all 3rd stringers on real teams
If you don’t like that…..
… you might be a Kings fan
I know the Kings are tied to an agreement to remain in Sac for 35 years as part of the new arena. But there is always loopholes or lawyers that find something to pull out of that agreement.
The NBA won’t allow for the Kings to be bad forever. Can the league step in and relocate the team if the Kings are still bad 5-10 years from now?
Hopefully, they can just relocate Vivek. For reasons he has no business being anywhere near a basketball.
I did not watch the game. Only checked the score occasionally.
Why no Bagley tonight?
Broken toe nail
Highly likely.
Does it matter? lol your name indicates you wouldn’t even ask that question
Drafting him set this franchise back at least five years. He sucks ass. Recently he has actually put in some effort. Easier to trade players that will step onto the court and play.
Honestly wondering….is he hurt again….Gentry shut him down for being a jack ass….he refuse to play?
