Carter with 2 dam minutes is a disgrace. Tell me we wouldn't do the same thing with cassle.

 

[Vinny Basketballerino]

We'd be better off benching Fox but you can't do that because it weakens our leverage and plummets his trade value.

Yet our chemistry is seriously effed during this fiasco.

Such a trashy way to go about this by the Fox team. And yes it's the Fox team. It's not the "Klutch" team or the Reece team. I can't wait till this rat is gone.

They signed his boy Monk. They drafted Keegan. They traded Haliburton. They signed DeMar. What the heck else are they supposed to do? Cousins is somewhere jealous as ****, haha.

Besides Keegan, that isn't a lot of length...

 

[Joshyjosh31]

Since we now know Brown killed a summer deal for Collins I think we can all point the finger on why we are stuck playing midget ball going back to everyone else we cut the last two years.

Collins can’t even defend on the perimeter you know who can Derrick Jones and Naji Marshall both were available but Monte is on record saying McDaniels was chosen as the guy to solve our wing problem.

If Fox thinks another Keegan is the answer? Yeah, time to go. It would help but no, that's not how this works.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Makes this drama so much worse because we had a good team man with so much potential starting the season. That's why fans are so angry. This was not the time to pull this garbage when kings fans can taste post season.

 

[Joshyjosh31]

Wait…which posters here disagree that we need to add more size & length?

They make absurd excuses and say it’s not that big of a problem check the knicks and denver game thread

Read between the lines. He didn't like the front office and org being bush league. It isn't just what they do, but how they do it. You don't fire your coach like that. You don't tell your players you have deals done and then they fall through.

Great way to kill a young players confidence for sure. The more the merrier! haha.

 

[coolhandluke]

That would have been an "And 1" for Monk if he was not playing for the Kings.

If that wasn’t spin I’d really love to know more about who drove that decision.

 

[Sam0ah]

Why not have Deebo come off the bench to fix some of the lineup issues? We would instantly have bench scoring...

So you're telling me Fox is leaving because they fired Brown after a horrific start that turned around immediately after they fired him. Ok smart person.

That's the price of living in the big house . The clock has simply run out. It happens. GM's operate the way they operate. They could be like Riley? He'd tell his players to grow a pair and stay home and think about it, haha.

 

[Jdbraver137]

If Fox stays monk has to come off bench. I think that’s pretty clear

I think all along the wrong person was needing the help, it was prob Domas that needed it more

 

[coolhandluke]

Deebo had an easy two but passed it around and had to finally throw up a three.

 

[SacTownKid]

Or just stagger properly like most teams. Tonight the bench is actually doing better than the starters in +/- believe it or not. The Kings have all their defenders on the bench and all their scorers in the starting unit. The issue is, Christie is running a 7 man rotation basically. It's NUTS.

 

[coolhandluke]

SGA showing the big gulf between him and Fox.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

The good news is that they were not likely to win this game, even without distraction. The bad news is....how long is the distraction going to carry over?

 

[Angelo127]

Are these guys just able to drive?

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

SGA showing the big gulf between him and Fox.

Yeah, it isn't close. Fairly recently some had tried to reason that it was

 

[chief bromden]

Kings just going through the motions today. Would firing the coach again help?

Besides SGA is 6'6" and Fox is 6'3." Not everything but definitely makes a difference.

Nope. Need to fire the franchise player

True...but Fox has stopped driving to the hoop lately and this game I haven't seen him drive at all. Business decision?

How tall is curry

He shouldn’t be playing at all!

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

All it takes is an outside distraction to throw your rhythm off just enough to miss shots. Looks like they'll shoot somewhere in the low to mid 20's again from 3

 

[chief bromden]

He definitely agrees with you lol
