Vezenkov is suited up.
I hope he ends the (post)season strong
Only 10 in uniform for Det that I see
No Cade, no Bojan.
when the opposing team’s best players are out, it’s usually a bad sign for the kings, right?
Western Conference
GSW (11th) beat PHI
NO (7th) vs LAC (1st) – go Clips
Seize the Pistons!
Killian Hayes audition game
Huerter is hot.
The Kings look crisp tonight.
The less drama, the better. I hope this game bores me.
Buckle up good buddy!
There’s no place like home.
Keegan with two fouls. Bring out Vezenkov!
Hey did any of you check out ESPN’s power rankings today? They had the Kings ranked # 10 in defense and 11th on defense which makes no sense to me. What is our current defensive position anyway?
Last I checked, we were something like 17 or 18. But with highly ranked rebounding and bottom-of-the-league defense against the three.
Ivey thinks he’s Michael Jordan Junior.
Glad Keegan was the pick
Kaytee and Kyle just went on like 5 minute diatribe about Jalen Duren and didn’t even mention the game.
They never stop talking
Incessant. And it’s drawn on and on and on until they need to plug and advertiser.
I feel like they are both color. There is no announcing of the actual game. It’s just a reaction to a play then a story.
Is it always like this, or are they being extra special tonight??? I tend to tune them out and just like hearing the sounds of the game and arena.
I feel it’s getting worse. Kayte has been speeding up her cadence to finish her long winded comment or story before they even go to commercial.
Vezenkov!
Sasha was so surprised at the foul, he almost forgot to fall down.
Sasha flop! LOL. I mean, he was fouled, but that fall was hilarious.
Sasha: You call that foul? No blood, no foul.
That new Kings.com/win unscramble picture thing is f-ing stupid. I want to watch the game, not unscramble a pic of Domas!
How many times has Coach Brown called for a review very early in the game? How many times is it successful?
So this time he wins the challenge, and the big reward is a jump ball?
Exactly. Didn’t take any points off the board for them. Not much payoff for that challenge.
No foul on Malik, and no free throws for Harris. Not a pivotal moment of the game though
About 20%
He’s been the Detroit Pistons of challenges this season.
Malik two blocks so far, looks like.
Man, Fox was right at the rim almost! Should have shot it after being aggressive.
Ivet driving on a 1-4 fast break and wildly shoulder checks Keegan for the charge
Keegan 1, Ivey 0.
Need to get Keegan involved with the offense!
Looks like Fox was starting to lose the handle before yeeting that dunk.
Keeg three fouls, I think.
Wow, they called that on Sabonis? Is that ref blind?
Ausar made of glass?
There’s no reason this game is this close. Should be up 20 by now.
The way Lyles is playing, I guess we’ve seen the last of Sasha.
Mitchell completely lost Ivey and gives up the open 3.
Yup
Kings are being low IQ. They need to take it into the paint against this small Pistons squad.
Ivey 9-3-3
Keegan 0-3-3
Keegan +1, ivey -9.
JFC stop taking threes!
Instead of talking about Huerter is getting his shots, Kayte just mentions that he was in the lineup and has been phenomenal.
Say how he has been moving and relocating to find his shot and getting in to a rhythm, and not taking wild shots anymore…it’s basic analysis
Is Kayte actually watching the game?
She took an extra talking pill today.
Nah, just responding to Draper. It’s bad. Someone needs to tweet or X at her, or whatever it’s called now, to stop talking so damn much.
Would be nice if Fox could hit a free throw
Fox is laying bricks from FT line tonight. He’s either pretty good or terrible from FT line. Why is that?
If you have an hour, ask Kayte.
LOL.
I seriously just did a spit take, oh my God that’s funny.
Fox could solve the housing crisis in SF with all the bricks he’s laying tonight
Kings are really playing ugly basketball.
Crowd is booing.
Yes we are. Kings deserve it.
Just keep jacking up bad shots fellas.
Coach Brown needs to tear these guys a new one during halftime.
Pistons with 70 at the half. Un-fucking-believable.
That was a terrible half of basketball by Sacramento.
Is this s scheduled loss for Fox?
15 points for Fox and Sabonis combined. Waiting for Kayte to talk about how the first game back from a road trip is always challenging.
Ha! She is so predictable.
She already has. Said it mid 1st quarter
Damn…my bad.lol
Seriously need a throwback night where Grant and Jerry do a game to show these two dopes how its done.
Prediction:
1) Kayte spends 75% of the second half talking how the first game back from a roadtrip is hard because jet lag, tired, time change, et.
2) Kings then take an ugly
3) Monte makes no moves by noon tomorrow
4) I drink too much tomorrow night in disgust
Take an ugly what?
loss.
The way this game is going….I’d be surprised if all four of your points don’t happen. It’s like an omen. 😉
need Fox dialed instead. Forget about the call Sasser got at half court.
Dialed in
I’d like to see no threes in the third quarter. Just middys and paint points.
Game is not boring enough.
Jalen Duran is impressive.
Oh for pete’s sake. The Kings are bigger and the Pistons are running a three guard lineup yet the Kings keep jacking threes.
We’re about to start an 0-5 run if the Kings don’t get their shit together.
The rest of the month is absolutely brutal. The only “sure thing” are the Spurs. They could easily loose 8 of their next 9 after tonight.
THIS was supposed to be a sure thing. It doesn’t exist with the Kings. Monteverdi Academy would give them a game.
Sigh, not even surprised by the score.
Which team is the worst in the league?
Can get back on the road soon enough
Four guards on the Pistons: Burks, Ivey, Hayes, and Sasser – have all outscored Fox.
Every single Piston is playing like he desperately wants to get traded.
Ivey 18-5-4
Keegan 0-4-4. Ivey has some dog in him. Keegan is a pussycat
OUR COLOR ANALYST IS SO FUCKING BAD
Welcome to the party.
Kings switch too much. Fight over the screen and don’t let them fox guarding Muscala. Brown is terrible at making any kind of adjustments that aren’t 5 minutes too late.
Fox is just not mentally tough enough and he doesn’t have a good enough motor to be consistently elite in the NBA. He’s very good though!
Kayte talks about the Pistons possession all through the Kings possession. LOL.
I play a game and see how many possessions she can talk over. Two is the norm, and she’s hit four once or twice.
Her vocal cords must hate her
This feels like yet another Kings game where they turn it on for 16 minutes and hopefully pull it out.
I hate it that I always agree with you
People respect the Pistons now? That’s what Kayte said.
I haven’t listened to Kayte at all this season. Been tuned on to G-man all season. Much better. I have no complaints.
Take the lead going into the 4th and we should win this…
Note to future broadcasters: Laughing at yourself isn’t content.
I am impressed.
I am easily impressed though LOL
Not as easy as me. I totally believe more in Lawlor’s Law than I do any NBA team.First team to 100 pts wins the game. it’s usually all they wrote. The game is over. Unless Lawlor is wrong (barely possible)……just turn it off it’s over.
There’s no place like home
Holy shit, we have the lead going into the fourth!
Thank God we finally have the lead again. Please hang on to it for one more quarter.
They fight back to get the lead and I find myself being upset. Not because they are winning, but because they never should have been down 15 against the Pistons.
Same here!
This run all with Fox sitting.
I say let him sit the rest out and watch.
Well he got the lead at the end of the 3rd. It’s our game to lose at this point. Can’t get sloppy now.
The Detroit Pistons: the kind of team you can mail it in against all game, play 4 excellent minutes against, and have the lead against.
Hey… that was us for almost 2 decades!
Wow, that was a foul? Ivey led with his elbow out.
I didn’t know Davion was on the floor during that run until he hit the 3. He just wasn’t a factor in that come back.
Kayte please stop!
Good block from Lyles. I thought he’d let his guy go straight past, but no, smart play
Seriously, what is Fox’s problem? He’s doing his disappearing act yet again. Isn’t even being aggressive.
Kayte: “I want everyone to understand something.”
Do tell.
Oh, she will tell.
I keep hearing, “Here’s the thing…”
It’s like she gave up.
Everybody has a tag line I guess.
I have been listening to the G-Man all season and don’t recall any of those statements by Kayte ever come out of the G-Man…….You have choices
“What people don’t understand.”
This is disgusting.
Pistons playing with grit. Ivey willing them back to the lead. Maybe put Edwards on him?
Good thing about being at the game is I don’t have to listen to Kayte
Should have left Fox on the bench.
This is what happens when you stop playing defense.
Can’t wait to hear what Fox doesn’t have to say at the postgame presser.
Fox phoned it in.
Why not play Len/McGee with Sabonis here?
Vivek’s celebrity
AB-listers in the house!This game is over.
It’s over.
We had to lose to Detroit at some time this season because you know…….Kangz
Welp, this game is done. If you keep letting them shoot three’s, you aren’t gonna win.
