Playoff positioning here they come!

 

[Double-K]

Damn... Zach Lavine is like a motorbike... lol

 

[Angelo127]

A win's cool but we can't be going all offense

 

[Kingz19]

Big win

It would’ve hurt to lose this one after the Boston win. Chicago played well enough but Kings got it done.

7 in a row.

Time to get greedy.

 

[joemama]

I'm giddy w/joy.

 

[gunks]

7 straight!!!! Over .500!!!! Undefeated in '25!!! WE'RE NEVER LOSING AGAIN

 

[TaxMan]

Damn... Zach Lavine is like a motorbike... lol

For as awesome as he was all night he just fizzled out unexpectedly at the end.

 

[Double-K]

Yikes, honestly not a good game

You'll get some of that.

 

[coolhandluke]

Light the Beam! We’re not losing another game this year!

 

[SLAB]

SEVEN BEAMS IN A ROW!

 

[Spike]

And that's how you close out a game.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Defense baby!

 

[iowamcnabb]

Good game, I’m hoping Doug can find a way to trim a few more minutes off the starters. Deebo and Monk should be closer to 30 imo. Especially Deebo given his age.

 

[OffTheWallJamal]

I'm so glad we won. I didn't want to hear the crowd of people that would have said Fox came back, and we lost.

 

[SacTownKid]

A win's cool but we can't be going all offense

Yeah, that'll come back to bite them at some point. At least Doug recognized he needed some defense out there at all times. I think one of Keon, Carter, or Keegan were out there to finish the last half. Obviously it would be a lot nicer if 2 of them were out there but it is what it is until Huerter can get moved I guess. Huerter had a pretty good game offensively but there's not a question it's Keon/Carter's defense vs. Huerters all offense.

 

[Spike]

I'm giddy w/joy.

For your sake, I hope not.

 

[Double-K]

A win's cool but we can't be going all offense

Actually, I don't know your basketball mileage but this is what we fans should appreciate.

A win that comes from a game that looks horrible with our players doing a lot of wrong things.

That's winning habit.

 

[fansinceday1]

Damn, missed the last quarter.
If this team starts winning games
Like this………..wow

 

[TaxMan]

I wasn’t crazy about monks game but the guy did flirt with a triple double so will take that.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Kings are above .500 now. What an unreal quick turnaround

 

[Kingz19]

I can’t see the beam lol

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Yikes, honestly not a good game

Any win is a great game sir

 

[NewArena]

My God I’m so proud of this team. LIGHT it!!!! I was about to start watching my recording but was too nervous to watch without knowing the score lol man, this is usually the let down game after a seemingly improbable win in Boston. I’m honestly stunned.

 

[joemama]

For your sake, I hope not.

Giddy not Giddey

 

[forza kings]

Doug Christie never lets the game get out of hand unlike that other guy who used to stand there with his hands his pockets and watch the low pct missed three points. So far he’s been perfect with his timely timeouts before bleeding becomes unstoppable.

 

[Double-K]

I wasn’t crazy about monks game but the guy did flirt with a triple double so will take that.

That's the push and pull with the kind of players like Monk. They go haywire easily but that's how they get hot. Just gotta have a professional fact-based apporach with players like that, which I'm sure a seasoned vet like Christie should have a good handle of. In his playing time he had played with a few big characters like that too.

Nah, the lineup needs to change

 

[TaxMan]

a 7 game win streak sure does shut up a lot of the national media who were back in the Kangz jokes two weeks ago.

They tightened up the defense at the end, just enough to beat a team like the Bulls.
