She seems to put us 8+ points behind, before the ball is tossed in the air

She is without a doubt the worst official in the NBA.

Yaay I get to watch this game on TV!!

Why do we use JT and not Cuz for tip? I can't believe JT has a higher max vert reach than Cuz.

Violet Palmer is the most recognizable official in the NBA. Whatever she does is remembered and as NBA officials are wrong on average about 10% of the time, she makes mistakes every game. I don't know if she is good, bad, or average but I know what her reputation is.

I want to hear you yelling.

He's a quicker jumper

It's hard to imagine that the officiating could possibly be worse than what it was last game,...but unfortunately tonight, there is a possibility

Jeff Van Gundy just said the @SacramentoKings are his new favorite team to watch.

I'm not sure Violet Palmer is absolute worst but definitely scraping bottom of the barrel. I actually think two newest female NBA officials Brenda Pantoja and Lauren Holtkamp are pretty darn good - both better than Palmer. I saw both officiate (on TV) number of games last season and what I remember most was hardly recall seeing them although knew they were out there. Seems they simply swallow their whistles more than most and that's often better than the opposite.

Over/under on an Isaiah Thomas montage?

Thats interesting cause Van Gundy was never a Cousins fan last few seasons only had back handed stuff to say about him.

Just a friendly reminder: This is the game thread. If we could keep from having it dissolve into a discussion of trades or draft picks, I know I would personally be eternally grateful. Thanks and...

GO KINGS!!!

Hey, at this point there's plenty of room on the bandwagon.

 

[VF21]

Wow. An interview with Derrick Williams. Nice to see.

Should we trade him for a draft pick.

Jeff Van Gundy likes the Kings?! That means they're legit now.

Her being terrible has nothing to do with her being a her. She just isn't good.

Just heard that on the MIA/BKN game, let's see if we can match up against a poor team.

Make that 3

Actually, in a way it does. If she wasn't a she, she wouldn't still be in the league.

Cousins really wasn't that good before this year. He wasn't efficient offensively and was a lazy defender that would melt down once every 5 games. There is almost nobody in the NBA that would have denied his potential but up until this season he wasn't nearly the force that he is today.

JT will abuse Harris all night

Well then, scoot over I am climbing on.

 

[Kingsfan23]

The ability to beat and lose to anyone, every game is a game

 

[VF21]

Figured it was only a matter of time.

 

[cuad]

Very good of Rudy Gay to give that ball up.

 

[VF21]

Oh yeah... VF21 is a happy Kings fan right now!
