Mister Slim Says: Twenty-five more games of this.

Kings kick off a five-game road trip in (checks notes) Austin, Texas, to take on the San Antonio Spurs, Because of Reasons™. Now a two-time All-Star, former King De'Aaron Fox is having a very solid season, shooting the second-highest percentage of his career, both from 3-point range and overall, and averaging a career-low in turnovers. Fox put up a then-season high 28 points and 11 assists the first time these two teams met this season, and the Spurs were able to get the win against a relatively-healthy Kings squad (everybody was available except Murray) without Victor Wembanyama. This time, Murray is back, but everybody else is hurt.

The Kings will probably lose this game badly, which will make the pro-tankers happy. Hopefully Fox will go off, which would make me happy.

Keep playing the kids.

With Domas out Spurs and Monk and Keegan being erratic the Spurs will have more beam team minutes than the Kings will

Sorry, I had inadvertently formatted the poll incorrectly, and had to delete and re-do it. Those of you who already voted, please re-submit your votes!

Without the Globe Theater, we probably don't have Shakespeare. Easy choice for me.

 

[Sluggah]

Gotta reflect a bit on how well I can separate the art from the artist.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

1) I love Dolly
2) I genuinely love the song
3) It's a stark reminder (or should be) for most of us my age or older that 8-5 was not the default work day and we've been shortchanged our entire working career with unpaid/shortened lunch breaks. I'm surprised a union hasn't picked it up to campaign for shorter work weeks. 40 (45) hours is arbitrary, there's reason to believe inefficient, and our pay in inflation adjusted real dollars has declined during this same period. Not to mention at least half of my jobs expected us to work through our legally mandated breaks.

Same.

 

[Sluggah]

That shouldn’t be possible

 

[sactowndog]

Personally I hope someone knocks Fox on his ass.

 

[Sam0ah]

Ugh

 

[Spike]

I'm sorry. I only made it to Jennifer Love Hewitt, and the rest of the list seemed not as important.

 

[Krunker]

Ugh

Yep, I am going we somehow win this one

 

[Tetsujin]

the San Antonio Spurs of Austin

 

[Tetsujin]

Luke Kornet flopping after running into Drew Eubanks who he is both taller and stronger and bigger than.

 

[Tetsujin]

Keegan and Malik Monk revenge (on Fox) game.

 

[Tetsujin]

Deebo absolutely cooking Harrison Barnes, who he is somehow older than, on that possession

 

[Tetsujin]

Also feels like Slim put one option on today’s poll with the express purpose of having me waste my vote.

 

[Sam0ah]

Man, I am all for the tank, but tonight I hope they win.

 

[dude12]

It’s funny, Westbrook goes out and the team does better…..of course, it helps when Wemby also went out

 

[Sluggah]

I’m glad I’m not a mascot

Kings with the lead lol

 

[Krunker]

Woo up 3

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Big time cognitive dissonance right now coming from the pro-tankers who also hate Fox.

 

[Sluggah]

Had no doubt.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

I def want to win period! F fox

 

[Tetsujin]

Big time cognitive dissonance right now coming from the pro-tankers who also hate Fox.

im not anti-Fox, I just hate the Spurs and everything they stand for.

 

[dude12]

Monk motivated tonight for some reason lol.
Is this a game that Devin Carter doesn’t play?

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Why do we hate Carter so much!@

Did he sleep with Christie's wife?

This is only explaining i can give right now. I just dont understand the lack of minutes.

 

[KingsRUs]

Man, I am all for the tank, but tonight I hope they win.

Preferably driven by the youth though (not really revived Monk). Keegan looks solid early, need to see something from the young guards
