Lyles should have got his normal pt to say the least. For as good as KZ looked he took away from our normal rotations. Except for 2nd q we looked nothing like ourselves.

KZ Okpala and Mitchell are the positives and opens up some possibilities later. Game completely went south when KZ got number 4 and Mitchell was removed shortly later. The lineup with both of them was stifling defense
Kings overall were trash without KZ and Mitchell the entire game. Sabonis had an average game but all the other good guys we depend on were terrible

Oh we tried that in the first and it was worse. He actually looked THE worst. KZ was needed

When should we start to worry about Murray? No rookie is in a better position than he is and yet?

Not to mention he’s supposed to be the most NBA ready rookie.

About 2 weeks ago. Like I said before we have been playing 4 on 5 which makes that 7 game win streak all the more impressive

I won't beat up on Murray, but a bit worried.

I don't know.
He has been looking pretty bad and I don't mind if they shift around the rotation, but I don't have any problem with it. He's a rookie and it's only November.

I get that it’s likely a combination of mental stress of his grandma, bad back, and defenses adjusting to him, but I am officially worried. He’s just completely fallen off a cliff.
Trying to find the right balance of offense and defense has been challenging. If Keegan and Huerter are both in the starting lineup, they have to knock down threes. The reason they're out there is to open up space for Fox and Sabonis. Mitchell and KZ struggled with their offense early in the season but they made shots today. Maybe Mike Brown should try shuffling the lineups a little to get them into the game sooner and keep one (or both) on the floor longer in the 4th.

He had more points in his his first 5 games then he has in his last 11 games and rebounds are pretty close as well

I would change his look. Start someone else and see how he plays coming in later. I don't see how it could hurt

Do we know he can play? Everyone in the NBA can play by that standard, but 4th overall players should do more than just play, they should be game changing. For some reason we are giving him way more leeway than our previous picks. I like the kid but summer league don't count. Soon as he became starter he fell off. I don't understand it

With Kris doing so well I’m starting to think they switched up in order for Kris to get to become a lottery pick.

I get it, but fox should not be shooting 9 threes unless he’s on fire. Otherwise, that suggests he’s completely settling for threes other than doing what he did for the fist part of the year — attacking and getting to his mid range shot which then opened up the rest of his game. Last two games he’s completely gone away from the mid range game.

We don’t need another. I want brandon Miller from Alabama

It All starts with fox, he sets the tone. If he don't attack early the game is much harder for us. He prob is the most inconsistent as far as pace of his game on the team. Everyone else is basically same player out there each game. Fox is only one capable of turning up another level
