[Game] Kings @ Sixers - 1/30/17 - 3PT/6ET

[Blob]

I don't hate easily. But I hate Matt Barnes.

 

[SLAB]

****

 

[Suicide King]

Can we make this a 3rd OT on this trip?

 

[HndsmCelt]

Coach drew up the right play, Aaron just couldn't handle the pressure

 

[VF21]

That's okay...I can live with this. I love this team and I'm starting to remember why...

 

[PurpleHaze]

Totally wide open! Kings projecting to get to Houston (in hotel) around 3:30 AM after long flight, bitter loss. Good luck tomorrow

 

[funkykingston]

Awful.

Sixers on a back-to-back and without Embiid and they still beat the Kings.

Good first quarter, competitive 2nd & 4th but a disaster of a third quarter.

And another amazing performance from Boogie gets wasted.

 

[kingjatt]

Malachi hits that

 

[Suicide King]

Wow. They got Afflalo a great look just didnt connect

 

[White_Chocolate]

damn

 

[SLAB]

Awful.

Sixers on a back-to-back and without Embiid and they still beat the Kings.

One step forward, three steps back.

The thene of the season.

 

[The Hammer]

Damn.

 

[kingjatt]

Awful.

Swap rights, 2019 pick, stauskas getting off, 14 point lead, hurts soo bad.

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

Being so wide open, that miss really hurts.

 

[BamBam52]

I'm tired of hearing Koz say "this one is gonna sting a while", after the game, during the postgame show. Think he's said it like 10 times this season. Ugh!

 

[Glenn]

You don't tell your players that there are any excuses. I understand that. This is the 7th game on the road and the guys must be tired. I sure as hell wish we had won this one but it was an interesting ending.. Oh...... do I need to mention that Cuz is a cold blooded beast? My god, folks we are lucky to get to see him. Unfortunately, I think some are getting so used to his play that they don't appreciate him. AND, he stays healthy.

 

[Peter_Gibbons]

Seriously, if we would've just won a few more of the games we are supposed to win this season, we would be easily in the playoff.

 

[PurpleHaze]

AND, he stays healthy.

How many games due to injury has he missed in his career. What an iron man to say the least!

 

[VF21]

One step forward, three steps back.

The thene of the season.

Nope. Totally disagree.

The Kings have been playing incredible ball, and finally had a lapse. There is a definitive difference out there in effort, energy, heart and hustle. Sometimes things just don't work. Tonight's problem was defense, but the team did not give up ... ever. I'll take that to grow with.

I said it on Twitter: I'll ride or die with this team. GO KINGS!

 

[Sac.Kings]

We need better players plain and simple. When your top dog goes for 46 and 15 you shouldn't be losing to Philly, even if they are playing better. Defense was trash in the 3rd and it cost us the game.

 

[Blob]

Wide open. Not even close. Choke!

 

[VF21]

I'm tired of hearing Koz say "this one is gonna sting a while", after the game, during the postgame show. Think he's said it like 10 times this season. Ugh!

And I think he's wrong. This one is a reminder that you can't take your foot off the throat of the opponent, regardless of the score. The Kings will improve from this.

 

[Blob]

Can we just cut Matt Barnes?

The guy is a LOSER in multiple ways....on the court off the court you name it!

 

[VF21]

How many games due to injury has he missed in his career. What an iron man to say the least!

What is wrong with you people? You're seriously going to mention a certain player and turnips in the same thought?

 

[Kingsfan23]

I guess the rest of the season is seeing what is salvageable around Cousins in terms of these vets. Temple looks like he can be. Collison/Afflalo/Koufos etc etc sit on the fence

I appreciate WCS progression, and the fact that he is now looking like he is on the correct path. Now he needs to get that rebounding and second effort on plays going

Casspi I hope will be ready next game, Vlade and management force Joerger to stop with Barnes.

 

[VF21]

OFF TOPIC: Raiders fans check the General forum. Breaking news from Vegas.

 

[206Fan]

Trash ass Kings. At what point does Vlade realize that this season just isn't going to work?

 

[The Effort Police]

It's games like this where I try to comfort myself with pathetic, petty BS. At the end of the day, this is the city where the fans booed Santa Claus, so they'll always take a permanent L in my book.

Haha, sigh.

 

[Blob]

Malachi hits that

All net.

Casspi is going to be reevaluated at the end of the week. He will not play until then. Vlade and management are not going to force Joerger to play or not play anybody...nor should they. He's the coach.
