[Game] 04/82 Kings @ Oklahoma City Thunder 28 OCT 2025, 5pm Pacific 8pm Eastern

So this is where we’re at? Starting Westbrook? Might as well commit to the bit and sign Methuselah.

Foul merchant nonsense

Man. I didn't watch Lakers game. Checked the boxscore and read the forum next day. All that free throw garbage was nothing new, but boy oh boy... I looked at Kings starters and was TERRIFIED. Bench is fugly (except Monk) too.
I live in Chicago. Watched Bulls win 3 times. I tuned in against Utah - watched just a bit of first half. I feel so sorry for the Kings guys that I love to watch play (Domas, Monk, Keegan, Keon). I feel sorry for the Kings fans. I have nothing against LaVine, good baller, had some bad luck.
Just who in the bleep assembled this group and expected them play well???
I am optimist in life, but not this time.
Btw, Huerter looks very solid in Chicago. Plays of the bench. Ball is moving. Bulls coach told him that he has to come into this season in good shape. He'll have to cut hard a lot and ball will find him.
I am sorry for such lousy post. I used to stay up late and watch beam team play...

2yrs ago, there is no way I could have imagined our roster/starters would be so uninspiring

Christie is lost

Hahahaha

First play of the game for Kings - Domas gets pushed in the back, no foul.

 

[Tetsujin]

Russell Curry

 

[The_Jamal]

Russ 7-9 from 3 last 2 games LOL

New franchise player alert

 

[kingdivac]

Derozen moved away from the basket instead of stepping in to play defense

 

[SacTownKid]

Both Westbrook and Monk have been on fire to start this season. Both probably feeding off the disrespect.

 

[The_Jamal]

Half-court offense much better. Lot more touches for Domas and we're actually moving the ball a bit more

 

[dude12]

Derozen moved away from the basket instead of stepping in to play defense

I thought the guys gave an honest effort on D in most of the first 3 games but so far there is a bunch of getting out of the way. Will only get worse as the season goes

 

[SacTownKid]

Without Chet and Jalen this Thunder team is beyond beatable.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Russ did shoot a career high from 3 last year and was over 49 percent in the corner. Just take those

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Here's a thought: jettison everyone on the team that's older than my son except for Sabonis, and whatever happens, happens.

I would expect the Thunder to be changing up that gameplan. They are clearly not seeing the Kings as a threat and are playing half speed.

 

[kingdivac]

Dumb pass LaVine

 

[TheMobb]

That Russ-Sabonis pick and roll is nice

 

[iowamcnabb]

Wiggins shoots 95 percent from the field against us

 

[The_Jamal]

Without Chet and Jalen this Thunder team is beyond beatable.

We're getting pretty significant injury luck early here. No Luka/Bron vs LAL and now no Chet/J-dub OKC. Gotta take advantage

 

[Tetsujin]

Russ well On his way to a triple double

They have to pace themselves. 2 double over time games and a back to back already this season

Well, you're 0-for-1 so far.

 

[NewArena]

We had a real hard time with them at the end of last year after playing them tough in the past. Wiggins scored 87 against us last year so be on the look out for that.

If Sabonis isn’t himself, we really have no shot at doing anything. All this talk of him being the “hub” and them trying to do things differently with him on offense (partly due to his request) simply ain’t working, healthy or not.

They need to go back to what was working because the 19, 13 and 7 Sabonis we know and love has been out of sight. I know this team was never going to be a juggernaut even when Fox was here, but we need for Sabonis to be HIM.

No Keegan or Nique, mind you. Can you blame him? That Isn’t his own doing.

 

[iowamcnabb]

Who needs to cut their nails?

 

[kingdivac]

Really need to clean up passing

 

[TheMobb]

Is LaVine high?

 

[SLAB]

Russ well On his way to a triple double

That’s all that really matters!!!
