Kings can’t generate any offense outside of Fox these past two games. Unless he decides to go supernova again, this is looking bad.

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.

If a starter is hurt, start the 3rd string guy so that the 2nd string guy doesn’t have his minutes shifted. Caveman logic.

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.

Keon back to start the 4th and doesn’t seem to be showing any ill effects from turning that ankle.

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.

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

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.
