Len fouled Domas pretty hard there lol

 

[KF8]

L2M or not the Kings loss this one on their own accord

 

[SLAB]

Absolutely stupid. Worst loss of the season. Worse than LA. Worse than Fharlotte.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

I prefer they make and foul and reset there but what the f ever horrible loss horrible horrible

hope Metu is ok. get it back next time.

 

[TaxMan]

That was an ok no call at the end

 

[HndsmCelt]

Well that sucks

 

[gunks]

Weak.

But on the plus side, maybe we'll get some sweet kb02 posts with the L!

 

[SacTownKid]

It's not the test they thought they'd get, but it's the test they got. You've got work to do Monte. See if you can nab another alpha.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Clutch free throws. Always seem to be hard to come by for the Kings

[Woot!]

This the first time this season where I felt like WTF is Sabonis doing?

Yup. His numbers look great. His play, not so much.

 

[TaxMan]

Tough loss, but I’m not sticking around here for the toxic chatter….move on and life feels better

 

[NewArena]

Absolutely embarrassing. I just don't get this one

 

[sactowndog]

No Embid, no Harden, Harris fouls out early……. And we miss a free throw to tie it ……. Ugh

 

[SacTownKid]

Yup. His numbers look great. His play, not so much.

He's just not that guy who is going to eat all the food at the buffet. Which is great for him, but he's going to need help finishing those scraps. Fox and Barnes might not be quite enough.

The great thing about the NBA is that there is literally another game in a day or two so there's no time/need to linger on a loss.

Eh brush it off. We have been on a really good run and Sixers got hot at the right time. Fatigue definitely played a role whether we want to admit it or not. Also, all the goodwill shooters rolls we have been getting lately were paid back in this one. Slop from Maxey and Melton had like 5 or 6 shots soft roll in

 

[New Era]

The no challenge on Huerter's "foul" was one of the biggest blunders of the coaching staff this season.

 

[dude12]

Fatigue played a part tonight. Move on to the next one

I just hope Metu's ok or Boogie is available.

 

[206Fan]

You can’t blame the refs at all lol. They were not a factor in the Kings losing.

The lack of defense was disgusting

 

[Woot!]

Tell you wut. I do NOT love the 4th-Q-is-D'Aaron's-show thing, amazing as he can be. Why completely go away from the whole spread-the-wealth-ball-movement philosophy that otherwise serves them so well?

 

[New Era]

Boogie ain't coming here....wish we'd just forget about him.

 

[Tetsujin]

The no challenge on Huerter's "foul" was one of the biggest blunders of the coaching staff this season.

It looked like from the frontside angle that Huerter got him on the wrist on the follow through, which given our luck with the refs would have resulted in a wasted challenge.

Another alpha isn't the problem. The defensive inconsistency is the problem.

Also pretty clear the workload got to Sabonis tonight. Monte needs to go find a 15+ MPG backup asap. Can't keep running Sabonis into the ground and just expect triple doubles every game

Because he has been winning us games playing that way

these losses happen all the time to better teams than us. A lot had to go wrong for us to lose and unfortunately most of it did

 

[Woot!]

Looked like a foul to me. That wasn't going to be overturned. No reason to challenge him *that* aggressively there.

Also, all the goodwill shooters rolls we have been getting lately were paid back in this one. Slop from Maxey and Melton had like 5 or 6 shots soft roll in

Plus I gotta imagine our record against teams with Montrezl is somewhere around .000

 

[SacTownKid]

It was close but there was probably no reason not to challenge. That non quick foul blunder under 10 seconds killed the extra possession at the very end anyway.
