Bro did the splits midair lmao

Normal shooting motion

 

[Rob-The-Great]

To be fair, those Warriors are over

Sad because we had a chance to beat those warriors. These warriors are a shell of that team. They need to make a tough move or forever fall into the abyss

 

[Tetsujin]

I had a quick notion of going back and checking the ESPN broadcast to see how the national announcers treated that second half, then remembered that it was Mark Jones so it kinda wouldn't count.

On the other hand, Bob Myers sounding like a grieving widow as the team he built continues to get torn to shreds is always fun.

 

[Fantazija]

Kings seem to struggle a lot in the first quarter of games for some reason. It seems like the 4th quarter is when they really shine.

I salute you sir

 

[iowamcnabb]

Warriors have to feel bad about this one. Sure they were short handed but they were up the whole game and got great performances from Wiggins and the bench. 45 percent from 3 on high volume should almost always result in a win.

Nice to see us getting some love on NBA.com for a change.

Sent them home last season

 

[RoyalDiva]

When does playoff season officially start again? May?

 

[kingsfan_4Life]

I'd ban you if I had the power with that loser talk sir. Outrageous! We are not losing ever again!

and you are from what planet again? Pluto? lol

 

[fansinceday1]

I knew if I stopped watching the game the kings would have a better chance at winning! BANG

They don't have the talent level to save themselves from the games where they slop the ball around anymore. Being a sloppy team is coming back to bite them.

Oh for sure. This is a crushing loss for them. You could tell they were highly motivated for this one. And like you said, 22 made 3s USUALLY gets it done. I know they have a long stretch of home games coming up but this could be a game they look back on and point to as the one that finished them off.

 

[forza kings]

Fox and Domas were 18 of 18 in free throws. What a change from last year.

Sometimes it be like that.

This is beyond superstition. Christie is a zen master

I almost wanna rest DeMar tomorrow. The last thing i want his for his back to start acting up

Big “Mike Brown randomly throwing McBuckets into the rotation” energy

 

[Joshyjosh31]

Bad close out by Sabonis. Moody was flailing and unnatural for sure.

bro Sabonis closed out like 2 feet to his side

They had all hustle but they lack talent to keep up with the Kings.

Coach DC unlocking a healthy Keegan Murray is huge for us man. Having he and Keon out there, it feels as if we acquired two new guys with DeMar and the gang.

 

[est.1999]

LIGHT IT!

 

[NewArena]

My bedtime has arrived (unfortunately).
Y'all do one thing for me and just make sure we light that damn beam tonight, aight???
Peace out, my friends!!!

You’re going to wake up beaming, my friend!!

 

[NewArena]

Are we ready to trade Fox yet? Guy has turned into a total zero.

Dude is playing with 9 fingers, no way that isn’t throwing him off at times

 

[midtowner]

bro Sabonis closed out like 2 feet to his side

Moody trying to scissor Sabonis was fresh.

 

[megapoxy]

I think there was a card shown in the postgame studio with Deuce and Mo.
The Kings had 4 big comebacks vs Mavs/Sixers/Heat/Warriors under DC and only one (at Miami) in the MB era.
The Warriors broke most of our morale (fans watching the game) but not Kings players... a month ago we would have lost that one by 30 or something.
I don't know if us the fans will reach a point that we will refuse to believe that we can lose matches like these, being down by many points, while just 3-4 weeks ago we couldn't believe we could win matches being up ahead with similar margin.

Why do I always look at Steve Kerr and feel like he’s an old man who forgot to put in his dentures

I think we have already reached that point. Warriors are a lottery team with misfit parts. Once the Kings turned up the defense and attacked their middle, they had no answers.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

30 for 32 at the free throw line. Just huge

 

[sono]

The Dubs had firepower from long range, but the difference was we ate them inside out and we got three "closers" in the 4th quarter.
