[Game] 45/82: Kings @ Knicks 25 JAN 2025, 4:30pm PT/7:30pm ET

[Capt. Factorial]

Monk really needed to hit a wide-open Kev there

 

[Tetsujin]

Is Thibs gonna challenge this for some reason?

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Good fight back. The never give up culture has set in

 

[The_Jamal]

Huerter being the only guy on the team with a positive plus minus is more proof that that stat is meaningless lol

Huerter's come in and played outstanding defense. Credit to him, especially after apparently being leap-frogged by Doug initially.

 

[Tetsujin]

Thibs gonna gift us a possession?

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Hell of a come back Kings

 

[Sluggah]

Monk really needed to hit a wide-open Kev there

Honestly…I kinda get the sentiment

 

[Joshyjosh31]

Monk and Sabonis bring it every ****ing game!!

 

[Capt. Factorial]

That was off Domas last

 

[gunks]

Good fight back. The never give up culture has set in

I wasn't really trippin when we were down big. It's just the Christie Kings rope-a-dope!

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Monk and Sabonis bring it every ****ing game!!

Every dam game! My favorite players right therr

 

[fansinceday1]

That’s off Domas.

 

[Joshyjosh31]

Holy crap make the call or jump it we don’t need a five minute break

 

[fansinceday1]

Huerter has come in and made some great contributions on the defensive side.

 

[Tetsujin]

Given all the contact the refs have let go all night, how is that an And-1?

Read the name on the front of the jersey and that will tell you everything you need to know

Just gotta shake your head…….

 

[Hoovtrain]

I’ll take it with how poorly that half started

 

[hrdboild]

I liked that quarter better when we were only down 2 with 9 seconds left.

 

[Tetsujin]

Considering how hot the Knicks were to start the game and how the kings were missing absolutely every single easy look they got, I’ll take a five point deficit at halftime.

 

[SacTownKid]

Now it's up to Thibs to adjust. Monk destroyed them in pick and roll which is obviously Towns' weakness defensively. Keep going to it and that should stop any potential runs in the 3rd.

 

[The_Jamal]

Props to the guys for making a huge run here. Honestly, win or lose, this is the sort of effort you want and need to see on a game by game basis to be considered a threat in the playoffs. Very easily could have just taken the rest of the night off, let this balloon to 25 at half and "go get em" next game.

 

[Hoovtrain]

Let’s see some good adjustments on D in the 2nd half and maybe Fox can get in a groove .

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

I love this team under Doug, they literally never quit.

 

[Sluggah]

Rolling out the TikTok saxophone kid at halftime is epic

 

[Tetsujin]

KAT played the entire end of the half like he was the one with the sprained ankle while Domas played like the All-Star starter.

 

[Joshyjosh31]

I’ll take it with how poorly that half started

What makes you sure we won’t start the half just as poorly with the same group

 

[jphilip]

Getting the pace bo silly turn over no ddr going middy push the tempo

 

[hrdboild]

The Knicks have 20 assists on 27 made baskets. That's phenomenal. We're fortunate to only be down 5.

 

[Joshyjosh31]

Now it's up to Thibs to adjust. Monk destroyed them in pick and roll which is obviously Towns' weakness defensively. Keep going to it and that should stop any potential runs in the 3rd.

Derozan should be feasting with the same matchup but we only spam post ups instead of running pick and roll with him
