Are you referring to the conversation in this thread or something else? You seem really angry at your fellow fans. No one has anything against Barnes. No one hates the Kings just because they’re venting their disappointment about losing. I think most of the “hot takes” in this thread are...

Absolutely. I thought our third quarter was pathetic. It drove me crazy and demoralized me in the moment. But that’s just part of the ride. Still love these guys and it was a great year.

Harrison Barnes is a class act and great locker room voice. But it’s time to transition to that role of: bench/part-time player who spits wisdom on the sidelines.

It’s too bad Mikail Bridges is unattainable with our current assets… at least at a price that makes it worth it for us. Same with OG Anunoby. Dorian Finney-Smith is a lower-caliber, more attainable option. I like Kelly Olynyk as a glue bench big. Doesn’t really help the rebounding woes, though.

Difference between effort and heart, in my opinion. In that third quarter, we came nowhere near matching their effort/energy level. Then when we got down, we lost our poise. But that’s not the same thing as guys not “wanting it.” Very disappointing way to end the season, but it was an...

It’s a lack of poise, for sure, but I do think it was also a lack of effort all third quarter. And I don’t think we can climb out of the hole we dug for ourselves Would gladly eat crow, but I just don’t see it.

Send Merlin. An apprentice won’t cut it. Come on, Kings. Dig in. Show some pride.

Mike Brown dead on in that timeout, but no one listened. Real lack of poise here. Still time to turn it around…

We’re making Kevon Looney look like prime Dennis Rodman.

We’re getting completely out-hustled. And seem completely incapable of getting a rebound. Mike needs to light a fire in this timeout.

ABC broadcast is insufferable. “Kings leading by two.” Jalen Rose (like a drunk soothsayer warning Caesar to avoid the Senate): “WARRIORS IN SEVEN!!!!!!!”

That was beautiful. And I didn’t realize I could hate JJ Reddick and about eight other media guys more than I already did.

Good old Scott Foster…

Ordinarily, that would be the kiss of death, for anyone even 0.1% superstitious. But Mike Brown is surely draining the blood of a bison as we speak to countermand the curse. Go Kings!

It’s a goos thought, serbiangoat. You may well be right about that. We’ve struggled more defending a lineup with four shooters, including giving up more offensive boards.

The offensive rebounds are indeed a killer. Sabonis pulled down 15+ rebounds, but it didn’t feel like it because of all the second-chance points. We can clean that up, though, as you suggest. Just have to be more conscientious and a little tougher. GSW’s physicality picked up big time

Also Doc Rivers: “I’m going to say this, and I probably shouldn't. I don’t think the humans should have won in Independence Day. Will Smith instigated the war with his heinous one-liners.”

Perhaps it’s the play style, but he looks lost and reluctant to act to me. But the advanced stats may disagree with my eye test.

Absolutely. Talking to girls in high school, I felt like Ethan Hunt disarming a nuclear bomb while free-falling from a jet. Ten years later, it was second nature. Eventually I talked one into marrying me (haha—sucker!). I think Keegan is terrified. May take him until his third playoff run to...

Kevin’s breaking my heart. It doesn’t seem like he’s playing scared. He’s actually been pretty good getting into the paint. Just can’t hit an open three for the life of him.
