Mister Slim Says:

 

[Caccia]

De'Aaron Fox is not even listed as a "game-time decision" for this one. Surprising and concerning, at least to me and other fans. He seems oblivious, or perhaps Stoic is the better word.

 

[gunks]

We win this easily if Fox has a good game.

But unfortunately it's still January....

Jk, I'm hoping for a bounce back game from our guy.

 

[GWD]

Christie may be choosing to use the Brown starting lineup until the trades are completed (if any are done). Then he will feel justified with changing things up since there is, or will be, a roster shakeup enough to make a different outlook necessary..

It doesn't seem like the offense first philosophy fits his style.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Relax on the Fox Criticism. You get two per game. Use them wisely.

Kings win this with or without. In fact this is a game i hope fox plays to get his confidence back

 

[HndsmCelt]

Feels like a trap game to me

 

[The_Jamal]

No starters announced yet? That's weird.

 

[Insomniacal Fan]

No starters announced yet? That's weird.

You thinking the Kings making a roster change on their way through Brooklyn?

 

[Tetsujin]

No starters announced yet? That's weird.

Just turns out it’s the normal starters.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Naw I don't see it as a trap. Feels like a must win

 

[Joshyjosh31]

Of course he stepped on the line lol

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Rozen so smooth

 

[gunks]

Fox lookin good so far!

 

[The_Jamal]

Jesus ****ing christ, again.

I swear, next dude who fouls a 3pt shooter loses their game check.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Hahahaha

 

[gunks]

Lol at least we're getting our 4 point play out of the way early

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Fox fingers fixed?

 

[Tetsujin]

Legitimately forgot Bojan was on the Nets lol

 

[SacTownKid]

The question is whether the Kings went clubbing last night, so far so good.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Jesus ****ing christ, again.

I swear, next dude who fouls a 3pt shooter loses their game check.

I can't even leave work before this happens?

 

[Caccia]

They need to run a couple of plays for McDermott this time. He is on the court--use him.

Kayte said they need to force the Nets to drive instead of bombing away. So far, it's working.

 

[Joshyjosh31]

Second game Christie is giving McDermott a chance you have to capitalize if you’re him

 

[The_Jamal]

Monk forcing the PnR there

Incredible start for Foxy.

 

[captain bill]

Great D from Keon. Rough foul

 

[The_Jamal]

Monk should probably stop throwing the ball away. 2 straight TO's

 

[Caccia]

Four turnovers for Monk. His passes are a little too zippy.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Monk being careless with the ball man

 

[New Era]

What the hell are we doing?

 

[gunks]

I mean, it's almost the end of the first quarter and we're not down 15+.

Nets in more trouble than they realize!

 

[SacTownKid]

Have to give the Nets credit on defense, they hustled and ran the Kings off the line like maniacs. Great ball movement from the Kings but turned away every time.
