this is great. NBA is only going to grow due to the international component, the every improving talent pool, marketability of the players and the big following on social media

@RIP_JEP explains why he is not a fan of the Sacramento Kings' beam.#StadiumClubhouse pic.twitter.com/EDDU3jfn46
Welp, there you have it. The absolute dumbest take you will hear today

Former Sacramento Kings legend Mike Bibby on the Kings-Warriors series: “I think (De’Aaron Fox) is the best (player) in this series and it’s showing. If he keeps going the way he is, I have (the Kings) going to the (NBA) Finals.” pic.twitter.com/m2BEnPUXL7

yah tell me you are having a sh** day without telling me you are having one…lol…cmon meow…other guy in the video said “now THATS agressive”
IT'S FUN.
Maybe it will run its course, but I'll be damned if it doesn't last at least as long as Coach Brown does. I was told the Angels only light their halo after a win, I'm pretty sure other teams have "things" this is ours, and it's better than yours, so their pee'd off.
"Hey Boston, the Standells were from LA and that song barely registered in the 60s, the fans come to the games, so knock it off!" would be a take somewhere I guess too?

That's what I love about Bibby. Always supremely confident. He really elevated the glory day Kings.

Probably should’ve time stamped this. These rankings were compiled BEFORE the NBA and NHL seasons took place (October 2022).

I stand by my Warriors first and Kings last rankings at that time.

I have no idea who this guy is, but hey at least he owned it.
It's like the national media can't wrap their heads around us actually liking being Kings fans and having fun doing so. The Beam is awesome; the fans love it, it's become our call to arms as a fanbase and something we rally around. I'll never get people who get so upset with others having a good time; just absolute miserable people
Well part of it stems from blaming the fans for the organizations poor performance over the years. Fans showed up better than any other team would have under the circumstances, which is why the Sonics are playing in OKC as the Thunder.

At least the 4 teams he had in the NHL ahead of the Bruins actually made the playoffs so he probably didn't have to put a disclaimer on the NHL rankings, although he did have the Knights below two teams that missed out.

De'Aaron Fox is just the second player in Sacramento Kings franchise history to score 20+ points, pass out 5+ assists and swipe 3+ steals in consecutive NBA Playoff games.

Maybe he'll get more than 6 minutes and they'll let him take the ball upcourt like PGs are supposed to do at next year's all star game?

I love Brad Miller because he's pretty much living the life I would be living if I too were a retired 7'1" multiple-time all-star center: live in the city I had the most success in with my way too young girlfriend, hang out around the arena on gameday getting absolutely plastered, sit in courtside seats apparently whenever I want because I'm a top ten player in the team's (local) franchise history, occasionally show up on the jumbotron being wacky (and drunk), and barely skirt multiple FCC violations during my token (drunken) postgame show appearances, and then rinsing and repeating the same experience every other day as my beard and long flowing hair continue to grow increasingly glorious.

Okay dude who co-hosts a sports talk radio show in Ohio. We'll stop just for you.
And I'd also love to see the list of Kings fans that only came out to the arena to "see the beam". What a strange rant.
Definitely living out my life goals were I to move back to Sac. He's a legend. Just hope he uses a ride service.

I'm not sure his fiancé is old enough to drink so she's probably his DD.
I should be ashamed to say this but most of the gals I've dated where there was a significant age gap I wouldn't trust behind the wheel any time after lunch.
