Losing to the Suns by 5 is nothing to get upset about. The pendulum swings to and fro. I would like to see aggressive Fox against the Pacers though. If we lose to them then people will have a reason to be upset. As of now losses to the current top 2 teams in the league is what most teams do. Till Wednesday folks.
The bloom is off for sure. Huerter is a focus of the defense and they are making it a nightmare for him on those dribble hand offs. If Fox is off that's going to mean wild swings offensively. Monk has been explosive though and that's been the only thing keeping them in it.
This could also be a sign of things to come unfortunately against these modern teams versatile wing teams. It's still a very small sample size but L's against the Blazers, Suns, C's, Hawks, and Clipps where there was a clear disadvantage in wing size.

My goodwill is gone once I see an opposing team run the same play over and over and the Kings coaching staff react later and later each game to it. If there is some miracle defensive system in place that's not being run and these timeouts are being used to discuss it, I'm interested in knowing the examples of when it's being run right. So far, they pressure, they have a chance, they don't, it's guaranteed buckets on pick and roll for the opposing team.
wasn’t nursing anything on the bench…but his minutes were trimmed, only 11 shot attempts, quick hook in the third quarter and of course overall played terribly. Hopefully he gets going. He has been average to below average since looking like a superstar up to the 4Q 6 minute mark of the @Memphis game.
Against these good teams, all you really want is a chance to be in until the end. Aside from the Celtics game, we’ve done that against the Hawks and Suns. A win would’ve been nice, but these types of loses don’t hurt that much.
Ya if we lose to Hali, I’ll start my freak out then haha. He’s playing great ball… I remember we half jokingly made comparisons to CP3… different types of playmakers, but high IQ passing makes them elite playmakers.

You guys are too funny.
We were quite literally next to the bottom of the well for roughly 16 years, people out there thought we couldn't ever move again. Suddenly this season we moved our limps a bit, and you guys almost just jump to the team's throat and yell "how dare you not just work harder to climb immediately? I expect you to just start ninja-leap up this well by now."

*I'm not upset with this game. They played well enough to give them a good chance at winning near the end. Prior to the road trip you sort of have this feeling that the kings would lose either 2 to 3 times with the tough teams they were going to face. That's why it was vital that they built a good cushion with the 7 game winning streak. The kings are still 1 game over .500. They still have time to right the ship.
