Not Verno also having to post a follow up tweet after the Lauri basket was no good lmao

Kings used up the challenge and can't challenge the Murray foul of the 3 pointer...that was some BS kicking out the legs there. Once again it solidified what I said about the NBA refs, they're the worst in ANY professional sports imo.

At least he didn't quietly delete it?

Utah, you can absolutely not let Markkanen get switched onto Fox at the end there. Game was over when that happened, they just didn’t know it yet

the Utah call

 

[Rain man]

Domas: 21-14-8 on 13 shots
Fox: 37-6-3 on 22 shots

Decent

Bare minimum

Brown had 2 or 3 excellent challenges on bullcrap fouls against Domas during the season but this one was not a good one.Glad it did not come back to bite Kings in the arse

I kind of hate he posted this before the Fox game winner. Dude can't go over how wrong he was about the Kings

the Utah call

.4 seconds of NBA basketball before that it was another special moment for the Kings.

Do the Kings not have a beat writer traveling with the team? Why does it sound like Kyle and Kayte are asking all the questions in the press conference?

The Bee’s Biderman’s been traveling with the team on and off this season but I’m wondering if the Southwest Airlines thing has kept him in Sacramento this trip.

On the other hand, Verno’s been an irrational Kings booster since 2018 lol

I'm actually surprised Fox set career highs in the 4th and later for any quarter. I'd have thought he had 20 in the 4th before.

 

[Tizzy Flip]

Watching Brown’s press conf. Saying this is one of the first games Fox overrode him off multiple times (which he gives him the green light to do), took the lead and won the game for the team. Said he’s just scratching the surface. It seems like he’s really pushing Fox to be that alpha he thinks he can be

Domas: 21-14-8 on 13 shots
Fox: 37-6-3 on 22 shots

Decent

Now Monte or coach Brown simply has to find a way that Fox and Domas can share all the minutes they can together. This bandaid of always having one on the floor is probably why this team is having a hard time against the +.500 teams. Keegan kind of had the look in his eyes that he wants to be that type of player. He was quite aggressive in his minutes.

 

[NewArena]

Man, I am disappointed that Utah were able to catch the ball and shoot at the end...that's unacceptable. If you watch the replay, why is Keegan Murray allowed Lauri Markkanen to catch the ball to begin with? Helloo...Keegan, you're tall enough to deflect the ball, can't you? Jesus!!! Stop playing like you're small dude. This team is talented but there is some bone headed play and stupidity that make you want to scratch your head.

The fact that they have much to learn and correct whilst putting wins on the board is something special to me, although extremely frustrating in the moment.

Kings lead the Pacific Division currently. That’s pretty cool

Imagine how insanely good this has to feel for Fox. His co-star is looking to get HIM easier shots

Damn it feels good to have a real coach again.

At least tonight Fox was able to take over when Domas couldn't be Domas for the final 4 minutes.

I think it starts with finding an actual playable back-up C. This would be the upper-echelon pick-up, but just say Poeltl was your back-up C. You could pretty easily rotate Fox-Sabonis together while Davion-Monk-Poeltl with some Huerter/Barnes to hold it down offensively

Are we on the treadmill yet?

The SW thing was fixed on Friday

Since we probably won't win the NBA championship certain energy vampires that live in our realm will in fact say yes.

Pelicans just lose Zion for a minimum 3 weeks too. They're likely to start falling down the standings right when we're hitting the best part of our schedule.

Yeah, backup C is a thing, but unless that backup C can produce and allow him to not have to sub one of Domas or Fox with that bench unit at all times it might not matter much. This team needs another player that can produce every single night with some consistency. Poeltl is actually an interesting idea. He could actually help the offense flow enough to bridge that gap. I'd still shoot for the moon though and look for another 20 ppg type. Eyes on Chicago if it were me. How about Vuc? hmmm...
