This is why Keon as a starter makes sense. High level team play on both ends

I totally agree, the question is do you sit monk or Levine and I think we know the answer to that but I don’t think Mr. Monk will like it.

Keon is a monster

Enough is enough. Ellis needs to start. This is malpractice
Speaking of, four players in Kings/Royals history have scored at least 20,000 career points in the NBA. Only two of them have done while playing for the team, though.

You can't make every rotation player on the roster completely satisfied. So if they are serious about making a run into the post season, then make the necessary change. Players will get over it, if it leads to more winning

98 was already pushing my limits. Oscar, maybe that Rock dude…
That's on McNair, either way: he needs to either a) trade somebody to make room in the starting lineup up, b) take the interim tag off of Christie's title and make it unequivocal that he'll stand behind any lineup changes Doug makes, or c) he needs to replace Christie with a head coach whom he will provide the job security to make such a move.

On top of that, it's pure ego, your not messing with his money, he just got paid. Starting won't affect his big payday

the more connectors the better. Carter can be that too. There are some guys that will likely be available with our second rounder that can be one from the post.
I worded that poorly. I meant that they crossed the milestone while playing for the team. Only one player in franchise history has actually scored 20,000+ points in the uniform.

I honestly think Monk will be ok benched. He doesn't seem like a player who will bring the team down for long. Sure he will be butt hurt for a few games, but if I know monk like I know him "I dont" I'm sure as long as we winning "we will" he will be happy
The good news about this lead for the Kings is that they're shooting a godawful percentage from three. Which means, unlike with the Bulls game, Kings Fans don't have to worry about them suddenly going cold from outside, because they're already brick out there.

Wow! Great first half. Brought my daughter to game tonight and she’s loving the fans ,the noise, and of course the Spicey chicken strips.
I’m digging Keon with his energy, game play and points for team. Latavia and Deebo JV keep it up. I know I’m forgetting some but I have to go ring my bell and get ready to light the beam.

I think Keon legitmately has a ceiling of a DPOY-level caliber defender if things continue to trend upward for him. He's just such a savant on the defensive end, you can't teach his instincts and anticipation.
And when he adds offensive explosion like this, it's easy to see why his impact stats are among the best in basketball.

He's waiting for the shot to fall next year when we can pay him. Duh

He got better this season but has been bad in March (Giannis middies).
