Just gotta close the margin by six by the end of the game!

 

[Rob-The-Great]

You know it’s sad when only Barnes came to play. This is the most embarrassed I’ve felt in a while

 

[SLAB]

DOWN 17!

Fox is having a really bad game

part of the problem is Sabonis’s defender is sitting in the lane

Nah. He just Galaxy brained a terrible two for one situation.

[HndsmCelt]

I hope Coach Brown has a hell of a locker room talk prepared

Most of the problem is De’Aaron is playing bad.

 

[KF8]

I like the in season tournament thing, but it's stupid how they determine which team is in what group. Lakers basically got a free pass to advance because of the group they are in. Almsot every team in their group is a bad team

 

[Tizzy Flip]

big brother putting on a clinic and showing them what they want to be

Warriors approached this game like we need to blow the Kings out and they have the confidence to do it. We approached this game with let’s try and outshoot them at their own game

 

[dude12]

Regroup and get your crap together

Huerter has played okay.

What an embarrassing 1st half on national TV. If we seriously can’t even LOSE by 12pts or less, then we need to shake up this roster. If we can’t even beat these Warriors, then we won’t beat anyone in the playoffs.

How can anyone watch this first half and think this team looked competent. Fox and Sabonis need to step the hell up. Don’t look any part of stars

Then the refs should be calling defensive 3 seconds

 

[Tizzy Flip]

Only down by 5pts. We still have a chance!

Silver linings. Back door a late come back loss, to advance in a tournament that means nothing

 

[iowamcnabb]

About as good you could end an absolutely awful first half. Klay and Wiggins decide to score 35 points in one half fret being trash against everyone else. The worst part about all this is the kings look like they have given up. Gotta fight through this

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Winning isn’t even on warriors mind, they are passed that. They want to blow us out.

We are just taking it

 

[Caccia]

Monk came back out and was sitting on the bench with a very large ice pack on his left knee. I doubt we will see him tomorrow night, and certainly not in this game.

They haven't for 10 years, they won't start now, lol. Warriors defense is a thing.

 

[MizzouKing]

Kings playing like they have PTST.

 

[luckytkp]

The problem is that the kings and warriors play with the same style that invented by the warriors

 

[SacTownKid]

This is certainly an issue with teams that have that size at SG-PF. The Rockets, Pels, and Warriors all have an abundance of what Sacramento doesn't have a lot of and with Keegan out it's even more noticeable.

 

[Tetsujin]

They haven't for 10 years, they won't start now, lol. Warriors defense is a thing.

Yep. Draymond’s reputation pretty much allows them to get away with tickytack fouls and small violations because the refs are pretty much only looking for Draymond punching a guy in the nards or something big like that.

I wouldn't be mad at Brown if the starters don't show life within the first 5 minutes or so, unleash the bench and youth and let them finish it off

I know why this team struggle against the Warriors. There is a psychological advantage that GS have after beating them so many times. Look at the Kings body language, there is no sense of urgency. Sabonis seems to be rattled in big games like this...he still have not overcome of the defeat from the Playoffs I think. The execution is shaky...the passing is shaky. These guys don't seem to have confident. Fox need to take advantage of the speed and keep attacking if the shots ain't falling. And you also notice the Warriors are full of confident even before the game start...it's like they're licking chopsticks after beating the Kings so many times...why not? The Kings don't get this type of confident unless they beat the Warriors.

At one time they were back in the game down by 2pts or so and then they commit dumb foul like Malik fouling Thompson shooting 3. Why couldn't they have better plan guarding the Warriors such as player coming out and help when Thompson or Steph running around those curve line. Mike Brown early challenge is horrible. Also, you notice Mike didn't call much time out to stop the bleeding because he knew the Kings can't defend them at all.

This is why I'm a little frustrated by the fact that we don't see more 5 out sets. Putting Lyles at C will keep that defense a little more honest.

Kings playing like they have PTST.

Kings fans watching liKe THEY have PTSD.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Kings have not given up. They will coke out pissed mark my words. Will they win? Idk but it will be close. You can tell they were embarrassed. And they should be
