    [Game] Kings @ Milwaukee Bucks, 1/14/2024, 4:00 PST/7:00p EST

    Re-watching the last shot has me baffled at what Sabonis was doing. We know Dame has R-A-N-G-E range and Lopez is sagging behind as they both cross midcourt. The wings are spread to the corners, and where is Sabonis? He's at the freaking circle! Monk gets switched onto Giannis and Sabonis...

    [Game] Kings @ Milwaukee Bucks, 1/14/2024, 4:00 PST/7:00p EST

    Despite the refs, the team choked the win away at the FT line. Monk, the team's best FT shooter missing both while Giannis sinks his was the difference here.

    "Everyone should think the way I do and if not ignore it" lol what a take. Kings keep giving away generational talent and regardless of the circumstances surrounding it (I don't care) it needs to end if this team wants success.

    TH is playing better than Booker who is ranked 9. Also Fox is having a very comparable season to Book: https://stathead.com//basketball/versus-finder.cgi?request=1&seasons_type=forall&year_min=2024&player_id1=bookede01&player_id2=foxde01

    What 10 players are currently playing better basketball this season?

    Are we going to acknowledge how bad Barnes has been?

    But the point is not to keep your veteran 5th option with that contract taking up playing time from unproven players who need the time to develop and improve.

    Why Isn't Sasha Playing?

    Barnes isn't important enough for me to merit him getting burn over younger unproven talent. We don't even know if he's that good. So we should find out by playing him over a veteran non-factor.

    Why Isn't Sasha Playing?

    This team's entire identity is to out-score the opposition through 3's. I'm not sure how you think this is a defensive minded roster.

    Are we going to acknowledge how bad Barnes has been?

    The "beating a dead horse" commentary actually is the point: why does this team still have this problem that we feel like we are beating a dead horse? He should have been gone years ago, let along kept on board. The re-signing was a braindead move and the only way this makes sense is that the FO...

    Why Isn't Sasha Playing?

    Here's what is implied by that question: "...that the team wouldn't otherwise benefit from?" Look at his +/-, his total habit of disappearing in games, and then look at guys who aren't veterans like Keegan and Trey and Sasha that could benefit from the consistent playing time to improve and to...

    [Game] New Orleans Pelicans @ Kings, 1-7-24 3PM PST/6PM EST

    When your defense = "just score more 3's", there's no playoff series wins coming, folks.

    I get the addition by subtraction argument, but my point wasn't about making a deal with Indy specifically for Sabonis. Sabonis isn't going to get better then he is right now, and he's in the discussion for fourth best big man in the league. Fox is a great guard, but he's in the discussion for...

    Why Isn't Sasha Playing?

    And yet that's exactly what Brown should do: give all HB's minutes to Lyes and Sasha.

    Warriors imploding: taking advantage

    Kuminga and Moody seem to be wanting out according to reports. We know the team's pre-season offer to Klay has been taken off the table. With the "win now" approach and signing a vet like CP3, they need to shake things up to avoid being a lottery team this season. So either the roster changes or...

    Watching guys like Luca and TH play I really don't get how you can just ignore it. People will always bring up Sam Bowie forever and this is one of those things. I'm just tired of not being on the better end of things.

    I didn't say the move had to be Indy. I'm saying TH is far better far earlier in his career then Fox who has had a longer development process to the all star player he is, but TH is arguably the best PG in the entire league and the franchise would have benefitted in the long run by keeping the...

    Love Fox, but keeping him instead of TH was a mistake for this franchise.

    [Game] Sacramento Kings @ Portland Trailblazers, 12/26/2023, 7:00pm PST/10:00pm EST

    Keegan 2-11 going -10 is a stinker. However, Monk being -21, Ellis -14, and Sasha -12 shows this second unit absolutely got smoked giving up that big run. This team will not succeed with the "out-score opposition" approach. We need to be able to have a unit that can put out defensively and slow...
