Apparently the Kings have faced challenges in this COVID affected season that the rest of the NBA didn’t have to deal with.

“These aren’t excuses, they’re just realities.” Nah Kayte, they are most definitely excuses.

Why keep finding those “excuses” ???

The team need to admit they just sucks…….

So, does Kayte has any excuse about “why Woodard and Ramsey are not playing ?”

It’s less about how good he is, and more about the fact that he’s currently injured.

Thirty-four bench points at the half, sure makes it easier to compete.

Whiteside 12 & 8 in nine minutes. Porzingis isn’t strong enough to slow him down, even with the extra height.

T Davis should get Buddy’s minutes the of the year. Plays defense. goes to the rack and can shoot the three. All Buddy does is shoot the three, no to little defense and is turn over prone.

The Kings played pretty solid defense in the first half. Hard to believe it’s the same team as the last week+.

They are active and doing the work,, but when I think about this team without Doncic, I don’t know if Dallas could win twenty games. The roster is just a big collection of nothing.

About 95% of us could and did, if I recall correctly. Too bad part of the dopey five percent was put in charge of the organization.

Not sure I’m going to bench a career 40%+ three-point shooter, but when Davis is on, he’s just electric. I think he’s the best athlete on the roster right now.

Whiteside did a nice job making Porzingis a non-factor in the first half. The Big Leg Injury never got going after that.

I just assume that’s his nickname. You never hear about a unicorn having a bum leg.

Doncic. The literal prince that was promised. The sky opened up and he pretty much fell in our lap. We chose Bagley instead. Thanks Vlade. Fox/Doncic would have been amazing. I feel this needs to be said every time we play the Mavs. Good win though. This team can compete with most of the league but is just so damn inconsistent. We have a top 12ish scoring threat, a top 10 offense IIRC and a really low turnover average. Our inconsistency is on defense. If the defense was as bad as last year we would be firmly in a play in spot.

Luka + Fox would be one of the best 1-2 combos for a long time. Vlade knew it would be unfair though, so, being the sagely overseer he is, made the ultimate moral sacrifice for the sake of parity
