I'm looking at a dark downtown sky right now. : (

 

[Kingz19]

Wiggins with a 30 piece lol

*40 piece

 

[Spike]

So, either this is an ugly game, where everyone mails it in until stuff is figured out, or, the team says "to hell with it" and balls out, whether a win or loss.

IDK about you, but this is where coaches earn their paycheck.

Sooo....yeah.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Fox has that dumb look on his face again. Geez, what a disaster

 

[SacTownKid]

That should have been a game where players like Isaac Jones and Devin Carter get 15-20 easy. Now Doug might learn a very tough lesson as to why. End of a long road trip game incoming.

 

[Elektrik]

Well I can’t believe I forced myself to watch that sh*t show. Just a horrible display of PROFESSIONAL basketball. On to Minnesota.

They are not going to beat any team let alone Minny. The well has been poisoned.

 

[PurpleHaze]

If Aaron Wiggins (who?) usually off the bench can get 41 on Kings how many pts will Ant-Man get on Monday in Minny?

 

[Elektrik]

70 rebounds for OKC. 74 points in the paint. Nuff said

45

 

[Rob-The-Great]

I'm going to sleep much better than anyone on the Kings today. That i can promise

 

[fansinceday1]

Wow, they got demolished. Didn’t think moving was gonna be the better option over watching the kings game.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

45

And we didn't think one time to stick Carter on him. Not once!! We just watched the show like everyone else

 

[kingsfan_4Life]

I was on such a high a week or two ago thinking, "who is this team?" But I should have had someone pinch me, because I should have known that it was too good to be true and that we couldn't sustain it It just sucks man to go from such a high to such a low once again. Hopefully we can get some good draft picks for next season and make some changes. Because this team as it is isn't going anywhere.

That just lost against the Wizards and will be looking to bounce back!

41-14 for Wiggins can’t do anything but laugh

I don't blame the team. OKC is already one of the best teams we've seen in a long time and our squad just got hit with a nuclear bomb emotionally. There's just no world all the drama over the last few days doesn't just seep into the guys playing on the floor. And you see it, the team we saw for 15 games under Christie before this news is night and day from what we've seen in the last 2.

The team is just dust until the trade deadline. And if we keep Fox after, I hope we sit him out for surgery and move on that way.

 

[TheMobb]

Perfect. Minnesota with a home loss to the Wizards. They’re coming in Monday locked in.

Just excuses I don’t think Wiggins scored 40 in his last five games combined

alright dude, whatever. Great talk

 

[Joshyjosh31]

alright dude, whatever. Great talk

I’m just saying there professional show up and do your damn job Wiggins shouldn’t be putting up wilt numbers just cause there’s trade rumors

 

[Jdbraver137]

Welp, Fox and his agent destroyed our season

 

[Joshyjosh31]

Randle won’t play and Reid went out as well

 

[Angelo127]

Can we just move on from Fox?

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Can we just move on from Fox?

We will but if it's for a package that nets us Cam Johnson or John Collins we may as well just move the team to Seattle.

I don't understand the obsession with those 2 players. I just don't.

Maybe, but this was coming. Run your rotations like Christie did/does, busting guys 40 minute levels in clear losses that only made the end score look better and bad runs are coming. ESPECIALLY on road trips like this. Christie being near sighted to get back in the play in race was right, once he was in it he had to realize that there was a lot of season left so busting through all your ammo and energy with this many games left can cost you in the long run. The Kings are starting to lose in all the hustle areas and yeah, I'm sure the news is affecting their play but tired play usually results in things like, you know, role guys putting up major numbers and wiping the floor with you. The Thunder are rolling but even the weaker teams eventually start meeting you eye to eye.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Because they are on the trade block and people thought we could get them. But the asking price (especially with Fox not interested in re-signing) is too high.

A coasting Fox
An entire team of 13 players with a negative +/-
A disheartened fanbase
A mediocre organization
Young players getting hardly any playing time in a blowout
But those 2 are what we NEED?

They are bench guys with or without Fox and neither of them provides the grit/toughness we lack.

I sure as hell am not advocating for them.
