Over on Spurs forums they seem to believe they have a horrible whistle as well.I was expecting Fox to get more calls as a Spur. So far that doesn’t seem to be the case.

Probably because the Bulls have been trending DOWN for some seasons now...I gotta ask this. How come the KINGS get mocked for becoming the “Chicago Bulls of the West” just with Team Lithuania and a few others surrounding them yet nobody makes the same joke about the Spurs, referring them as the Sacramento Kings of the South?
They have just as many former KINGS in their starting lineup as the KINGS have former Bulls in theirs.
I’m sensing a double standard here.
I like it better than mine! But I feel like there’s that alter ego name that fits him perfectly, just can’t think of it![]()

That’s perfect!D. Faux?
This is true but I decided to google it and looks like there are 13/30 for fewest attempts per game. Kings sit at 19/30. Obviously does not account for pace, and-1, or anything else.Every team complains about the officials......and no fanbase in general, is objective in an unbiased way about the calls against their team
While I don't really have any problem with Fox's stance that you're under no obligation to be friends with your coworkers (and honestly, I have a lot of respect for that stance), he probably doesn't need to be engaging random online nobodies to explain himself. Unfollow if you must, but why stir up a bunch of unnecessary drama? Why give the Kings whiteboard material? What's the point? He was traded in accordance with his wishes. He got what he wanted.
I've generally viewed the Fox trade as an unfortunate situation where everyone was ultimately just protecting their own interests, but Fox is making it awfully difficult these days not to hope for his failure in San Antonio. It was already hard to believe that he and his agent had been operating in good faith with the Kings' front office prior to his trade, and it really doesn't sit well with me now that he seems intent on pouring salt into the wound of his departure. You want out? Okay, done. You can't muster up a sincere goodbye message to the city and its fans? Fine, you were always on the more prickly side. But the antagonism now that he's in a Spurs jersey seems so gratuitous.
I'm not among those Kings fans who took some kind of personal umbrage at Fox's desire to move on. But nor am I going to look back fondly on his time in Sacramento, and nor am I going to be rooting for him to achieve what he couldn't accomplish here.
Yeah I don't think he did. It may take some time to see it but Sacramento fans are special. And the org was willing to move heaven and earth to make him happy. He could have gone down as an all time Top 5 Sacramento King but he's likely going to be another guy in San Antonio, and he will be second fiddle at best to Wemby.I wouldn't necessarily agree that Fox got a better job now.
I also wonder if Sabonis getting that Netflix special last year had to do with anything since Sabonis basically become the face of the franchise over himThis was posted on reddit. The new "we don't use social media sources" policies the subs have all adopted is kinda the worst thing ever.

I forgot all about the Netflix special since it seems to have benefited Sabonis exactly zero. It's weird because in my mind Sabonis is the one that completely transformed the Kings but the org still pushed Fox as the face of the franchise. I could see tension possibly with Brown pushing to move from DHO centered offense to one that became reliant on Fox's 3-ball but that would be more of a Brown issue.I also wonder if Sabonis getting that Netflix special last year had to do with anything since Sabonis basically become the face of the franchise over him
