[Game] 43/82: Kings vs. Warriors 22 JAN 2025, 7pm PT/10pm ET (ESPN)

[PurpleHaze]

Fox not having to do it all at the end and actually deferring to DDR is amazing. Both clutch for sure but sometimes one is sizzling hot will not be denied.

Gotta give Christie credit for sticking with it. Kept doubling curry and it eventually paid off. Hueter didn't see the court, again a win.

I think Hueter is toast man. He needs a couple of games in time out

Just throw him into a big multi team trade at this point to help out salary matching. I don't think any GM is going to trade for him to trade for him.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

How did we end up with 123 points

75 in the second half will do that

 

[Tizzy Flip]

I know it's probably piling on at this point, but I don't see them winning this game with Brown.

This new squad has a whole nother level of grit under Christie

The numbers don’t lie…

Brown at home this season: 6-12
Christie: 7-0

I know it's probably piling on at this point, but I don't see them winning this game with Brown.

This new squad has a whole nother level of grit under Christie

Doesn't matter. He's getting paid for another 2.5 years to do nothing I don't feel sorry for him. Imagine where we'd be if we played like this all year.

 

[Tetsujin]

Well, well, well

In honor of his good friend, Steve Kerr coughed up a Mike Brown special and had his team lose a whole 18 point lead by the end of the third quarter.

 

[NewArena]

Remember when the Warriors would toy with us and then clobber us when it mattered in the clutch? Those days are over, kids.

Maybe Vivek can fire him too.

 

[Kingz19]

Kings played Steph well.

They have pretty much decided after game 7 that whatever happens with everybody else. Steph isn’t going to beat them again

If Gui Santos does it. So be it. They’re crowding Steph.

 

[sactowndog]

People can ***** about the shooting numbers all they want but down the stretch De’Aaron clamped Wiggins despite giving up a good five inches on the guy

nobody questions whether Fox can play defense or move the ball. Whether he chooses to or not is a different question.

 

[LoungeLizard]

Looking forward to reading through this game thread. I’m sure there will be no crazy over the top reactions.

Great win Fam. Light it!!!

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Doesn't matter. He's getting paid for another 2.5 years to do nothing I don't feel sorry for him. Imagine where we'd be if we played like this all year.

Doug's record this year is up to .833. Thunder/Cavs are .837, so.

Maybe that's why he was so p*ssed Brown got fired. Now the Kings are starting to dig out of the play in basement the Warriors are starting to comfortably have to themselves.

The numbers don’t lie…

Brown at home this season: 6-12
Christie: 7-0

Uncanny, the difference. No chance it's a coincidence or just a "new coach bump." This is a real tangible change in play

 

[coolhandluke]

In unrelated news, Steve Kerr is still upset that Kings fired his buddy.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Not having to do it all is one thing, but he hasn't been playing well at all offensively. Thank goodness he is hitting his fts like you said

 

[Tetsujin]

If Gui Santos does it. So be it. They’re crowding Steph.

Keegan probably doesn’t develop into this highly versatile defensive monster without game 7 so hopefully it worked out in the end.

 

[Double-K]

75 in the second half will do that

They don't call you Capt. Factorial for no reason.

 

[Sherds]

Into 7th...1game behind the Lakers

 

[iowamcnabb]

Oh god

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

(3) more triples from DeRozan. They've expanded his game

 

[NewArena]

“HE’S A DOWNGRADE ON HB” my ass

Lmaoooo oh this is sick! Shame on anyone that would dare type that

 

[coolhandluke]

Team made of nails tonight

They sure Christified the Warriors.

 

[kingsfan_4Life]

I don't want to sound negative, but I'm actually fine losing tomorrow. I mean a day of traveling AND a back to back, not to mention a really good team! BRUTAL!!!! Because we won tonight, I'm okay with a loss tomorrow, just play hard. You won't win every game.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Kings attacked the rim tonight, didn't fall in love with the 3 ball when it wasn't falling and didn't fall into the trap game. Good win but I expected to win this game. It's nice when you win the games your expected to win

Denver, I hope to win, expect a battle. I never expect to lose

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

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Doug's record this year is up to .833. Thunder/Cavs are .837, so.

Maybe totally not sustainable but we’d be a 60 win team for sure?

 

[Tetsujin]

Leave it to the NBA to post a bucket that doesnt count for a team that just lost and for a player that only had 14 in this one 🤦‍♂️

To be fair, those Warriors are over

 

[Capt. Factorial]

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.
