It’s hard to expect this team to be competitive down DeRozan and Sabonis. That said, Monte’s ass is hanging out right now looking at this ultra thin bench.
I sometimes wonder if Mike Brown is capable of learning. Why start Alex Len in the 3rd after Keons first half? The Len starting at center thing does not work. Browns logic for “not wanting to upset the rotations” is inane.
Considering once Keegan fouled out with a couple minutes into the 4th, they were down 4 of their best 5 players tonight. Would of been nice to get this win regardless
When the game got tight, Fox was the only one capable of putting the ball in the basket. This is a consistent problem. Say what you will about ISO ball and blah blah blah, the rest of the guys available tonight missed wide open looks down the stretch, and so yes Fox has to again try to put the team on his back. There is no other option.
It’s true. However, he drove the ball into the middle of nothing. He could and should have seen the floor better. But yeah, he put up great numbers (again) tonight while Huerter and others stunk.
Looking at the video.
it just looks like Fox lost control
of the ball. If Dyson touched him I didn’t see it. It must have been because Fox lost contro Of possession Dyson flailed his arms
I have both Memphis and Atlanta as my “in-market” teams on league. How stupid is that. Go Kings!!!
Kings can’t generate any offense outside of Fox these past two games. Unless he decides to go supernova again, this is looking bad.
Huerter had a good game last game against Utah and in the Suns game.
Bricks. Nothing but bricks. Kings need to wake up.
Welp, this lineup didn’t work so well…
Should have started Tre at center. Ellis and Jordan off the bench. Exciting.
This is embarrassing.

Ellis already at a season high for scoring. Glad to see it.
Brown looks lost.
Tonight would be a great night to hit a bunch of 3s
Good way to close it out (minus giving up another Oreb for the putback)
Ellis is looking solid.
Fox really is nice.
He is going to need a rest tonight. Great to see Ellis stepping up.
Keep Ellis in the game.
National Media when Domas gets an assist off a DHO: It’s fake, it shouldn’t really count.
National Media when Trae Young gets an assist off a PnR:
?
Someone told the Kings that shooting the ball was a good idea.
Kayte making a menopause joke followed by saying Keon got “molested” on an uncalled 3pt foul is one of the broadcasting moments of all time
If you had to sit next to that clown you would say dumb stuff too.
PTSD.
You calling Jones a clown?
Yep.
Love seeing Monk flexing from sideline. Such a great teammate
Kayte cut off by Jones for talking into the commercial. Keegan needs to get mad or something. He needs to be more aggressive.
“Fox has been an imperious scorer.” Jones that is ridiculous.
What was he saying about hub caps earlier?
He is an irrelevant shit show.
Complete bullshit call, and Brown doesn’t challenge
bad call, but would have lost the challenge.
Yeah, officiating has been pretty garbage this whole game
Keegan is tired.
Predictably, Brown opens the half with a lineup that did not work at all for the sole reason of “they were the starters”
If a starter is hurt, start the 3rd string guy so that the 2nd string guy doesn’t have his minutes shifted. Caveman logic.
Can we start a petition to make Kayte stop saying “on a heater” for at least the rest of the season?

Mark is trying way too hard to make “Neon Keon” work
WoW Keon!!! It gotta be the shoes.
Keon please don’t be hurt bad..
Keon back to start the 4th and doesn’t seem to be showing any ill effects from turning that ankle.
Would love to see him get to 30.
Why is Bogi trying so hard to play hero ball?
Brown’s rotation is chaotic.
Going to his bench is like playing the lottery on the day rent is due. He is doing all he can do.
refs took out the Kings best wing defender
and best rebounder
Refs really leaving their imprint on this one. Legacy game for them.
I still think the Lakers pay them from a long lost hidden top secret trust fund.
Keon went from a horrible game to a career night. Great to see it.
Two solid individual performances but not winning. They need to figure out how to do this as a team.
I can understand calling that a foul, but saying Trae was shooting is absurd
Refs have killed this team for two decades.
Who forgot to Venmo the refs?
Refs are just letting the Hawks beat the shit out of the Kings and calling techs when they protest
All the refs. The reputation of this team is all their fault.
That was a god damn flagrant foul against Fox. Dude locked him arm and pulled him down. Right in front of the ref. This is bullshit.
Fucking zebras
There’s no way this game isn’t rigged. The calls/no-calls against the Kings are unrelenting. I’m getting sad flashbacks to ’02 in this one.
You think the money from Laker’s owner’s Playboy shoot is funding the fraudulent referees?
Fox is being Uber aggressive and is getting clobbered constantly. He gets no calls. Horrendous officiating
Why can’t Keegan do what Keon is doing?
WTF Fox? Doesn’t even get a shot off going downhill?
Did you see how many points he has been scoring. Just ignore the team’s record.
Yea, Fox is the problem…
He is not the problem. The problem is this group of players are individual scorers.
It has been confirmed. The Atlanta players, coaches, and fans also say the referees are bad.
They must be bad.
What was Fox doing there? Brown should’ve called a timeout. Fuck the refs
ISO Fox is not the answer.
The dark side of ISO ball.
I don’t think we’re going to like what the 2 minute report says about this game.
Considering once Keegan fouled out with a couple minutes into the 4th, they were down 4 of their best 5 players tonight. Would of been nice to get this win regardless
We lost because Keegan isn’t even a consistent 4th option on offense.
Some people were calling him the next Dylan Brooks? Lol!

Disappointing to see Huerter and Keegan fail to be even average NBA players over and over when they’re desperately needed.
Huerter is inconsistent. Therefore his trade value is low. Keegan has regressed. So his trade value not too high either.
Huerter, apparently, though he turned into Steph Curry last season. His shot is an inconsistent joke.
