First
0-3 on the segabab this season. 1-3 after tonight!
Fouls. Poor shooting. Not good. Anyone know when Len comes back?
Estimated return of Dec 29
Gobert is a real problem.
Ant screaming at refs for foul calls early and often. At what point does he get T’d up for that? Fox gets Ts for no calls on attempted homicide.
Kings on a SEGABABA are playing…..as they usually seem to do
I am begging Mike Brown to stop playing Keon as a ballhandler/playmaker
Keegan
Only option with Monk out is Davion.
Id give Huerter a look. I’d say hes a much better playmaker than Keon, particularly in the PnR.
Lot of dunks and layups for the Wolves
Javale might need some extra run tonight. Need his size against this team
Maybe Keegan at SG if Huerter is not hitting threes.
Well, we’re 0 for 7 from three, and that ain’t gonna work.
Monk is not replaceable. I thought McGee was out tonight.
To play devil’s advocate, Monk may be one of our most valuable trade pieces and there are guys like Sexton or Hyland that might be had relatively cheaply. Could you use Monk to bring in a big contributor, and replace most of his production on the cheap? Idk if I’d do this personally but it’s worth asking imo.
The question will be answered after they sign their next contracts. Monk has the character that literally makes other players better. Does Sexton or Hyland?
Chemistry is certainly a major consideration with Monk. He brings a buoyancy to this team.
He certainly floats. I never realized he was such a prolific rim smasher. if the team gets better without compromising the teams integrity like the Warriors, I’d be down for a trade.
Javale get the ball to your PG
McGee Dropped Slo mo on a screen.
Sasha matches up well
Amazing how far IQ can carry you. Always one of the smartest guys on the floor.
Javale doing too much
Duarte stop shooting 3s. Javale you are not a PG and should only be dunking and putbacks
Duarte is so bad man
4 on 6 with him out there.
I thought he was playing okay until that ugly TO. His defense has been solid he just cant make a three to save his life.
Trey is awesome. lol
Duarte just isn’t that guy
Keep pushing the pace into the paint because we need to practice free throws and this quarter is a good opportunity
Gonna need Fox to play 40+ minutes to give them a shot. Deficit growing the moment he goes back to the bench
Getting zilch from the 2 guard spot tonight. We’d be up if Monk was playing.
Ugly minutes from Huerter so far tonight. TUrnstile on defense, providing nothing on offense and just got his pocket picked leading to a layup in transition
That’s anytime Kings play a good team. He is so soft. Tired of watching him fold like this.
Not unrelated to this game… if I’m Tim Connelly I would trade KAT so fast it would make Golbert’s head spin.
Colby Jones gets an opportunity
Sasha comes in and plays well and gets right back on the bench. Weird
Maybe it’s to match him up against the TWolves 2nd unit.
We need offense put Sasha in! Hit some quick threes.
Can’t hit a 3 to save their life, getting killed on the boards and in the paint….and only down 12 at the half? Guess I’ll take it, but this is starting to look like all their other losses unless they quickly start hitting their 3’s in the 2nd half. Need one of the role players to step up with Monk out. Huerter/HB combined for just 7 points in that 1st half. Need more from them to have a chance
I’m with you all I would like to se Sasha get some long burn… Maybe a scheduled loss like this or another matchup where we have an advantage.
Wouldn’t mind seeing a bigger lineup with Keegan at 2, HB at 3 and Lyles or Sasha at 4.
with Monk out, wouldn’t mind seeing more Colby Jones.
I don’t see an issue
What is Huerter doing?
Huerter been great for the Wolves tonight
When the 3s aren’t falling, but you insist on 41% of your total shots being 3s, and when as usual you’re letting the opponent shoot over 50% from the field, you’re likely to lose fairly convincingly.
Sabonis is so great at getting players to take his fake.
SEGABABA and all that, but the weaknesses of this team rear it’s head quite often against them top-tier teams
There’s a lid on our threes tonight.
3 of 22… get wrecked! Wolve’s is garbage too
I think Javale could make more if you gave him 22 attempts
Calling it a night. Let me know if Colby Jones goes for 40.
Kings staying true to their feast or famine ways this season. Either an impressive win vs quality opponent or they get ran off the court
Yep… Kings destroyed this team with KAT on their home floor just a month ago
Yeah, but McDaniels is a better player especially against the kings, and he didnt playblast time. KAT plays no defense, slow. McDaniels is a nightmare matchup for the unathletic wings the kings have
I agree KAT should be traded.
Huerter is so useless. Need an upgrade in the starting lineup ASAP. Let’s go Monte.
Just don’t have it tonight. Minny not even playing great, Kings can’t hit a shot. We need a legit third star. Can’t afford to have Kev and HB keep disappearing.
Sabonis just GOD dunked on Golbert.
Golbert holding his blind eyes.
Need a 10-0 run here
McGee wins this game for us.
Seems like we should be down by 30 instead of 14
11…. Foxed
Getting better
Great finish to the quarter. Gave themselves a shot in the 4th. Here’s hoping they suddenly start hitting all their 3’s
Well that sorta comeback was fun while it lasted
That’s it
Don’t like seeing Fox limping a bit on his ankle. Playing through it so hopefully nothing much to worry about
No ref blaming tonight
Harrison better than McDaniels… You all saw it!
Kings need to forfeit the second game on the back to back they’ve been atrocious
Are you…. Want2win and inthestarz the same person? WTF?
great minds think alike
just literally forfeit the next b2b, no need for injury risk
Domas might be the best basketball player in the NBA
2 possession game
Lyles backbreaking turnover
We just didn’t have enough gas to get all the way back.
The Kings sure self-destruct in quick fashion. It’s remarkable. At least they kept it respectable.
Well they fought back at least. More than we could say for their other losses once they fall behind by 20 or so. Still, 0-4 now on the 2nd night of a b2b this season. Recurring theme
Conley so old… so good. Merry Christmas and happy holidays.
