Yeah, you know that's good point, Brown and Monk pointing out how stupid that transition take foul rule is. Doesn't that qualify? Take it out NBA.

Still want to see a replay of that Keegan fall. Rewind on league pass looks like he got at least a hand to the gut but tough to see how hard it was

I mean, they called one on Malik last night for fighting for a board.

At least the Kings didn't trade a player and a 1st for PJ Washington

With the way this looks so far I'll be happy to break 50
Welp.
Hard to feel good coming into this and, after one quarter, certainly don't feel any better.
It'd be nice to see Domas keep his dub-dub streak alive - and, w/1 board and 2 assets after almost 10 min of game action, he has work to do if that's gonna happen, especially if the Kings pull the plug early.

He is probably one of the most passive starters in recent Kings history. The guy looks so lost and disengaged at times.

Monk playing a little sloppy here.

He's got a lot of talent, but more and more the concern is that his personality is not going to allow him to make the most of it

Awful. Fox smiling and talking to Braun at the line, then misses it. Needs to adjust the focus

There will be 29 games remaining after this game. I see 4 games that should be sure wins (SA-twice, Memphis) after that most of the teams are playoff material so I just don't see us making it out of the play-in bracket. I get that the other teams will win/lose but I just don't see any streaks coming after the break. Especially, the product and lack of focus and this years version of the Kings.
After the loss to the pistons, I'm not sure those are sure wins anymore.

Barnes since getting that BS travel call seems like he's angry. Love it.

Kings proceed to go 1-3 in those 4 sure wins.
We need to improve our defense over the last 29 most certainly. We still have a winning record against Western Conference playoff teams though. Missing the play-in entirely seems like a pretty big stretch at this point.

Bad choice of words, they will be a play-in team but I dont see them bumping to the six spot.

Kings can't stop Gordon.
You know that the Kings lost to the worst team in the league at home not long ago, right?
Currently the bar for the 6 seed is set at 10 games over .500 (New Orleans) and we're 7 games over .500 (and just were 10 games over .500 11 days ago). The doom and gloom is understandable considering we're on a losing streak but it's also a tad premature I think. When the bottom falls out, we'll know it. For now we're struggling but a short winning streak puts us right back in the mix for a top 6 seed. Not that it really matters. We were the 3rd seed last year and lost to a play-in team. We just need to be playing at our best by mid-April, whatever it takes to make that happen.
EDIT: My bad, Golden State was the 6 seed. But they lost to a play-in team (Lakers) in the following round as did #2 seed Memphis in the first round.

10 of those 29 games are against teams currently under .500 (and there are only 12 teams currently under .500 in the league). You are seriously overestimating the difficulty of the schedule down the stretch.

Real dumb plays on both sides of the floor. Denver on a B2B scrambles the brain?

Brown talking to Keegan probably telling him to take that layup. The Kings get too unselfish at times.
That's the gripe with him at the moment... you can't suck for a month then turn it back on again for a few weeks then suck for another month. Granted it's his second year, so we'll see if he'll improve with being more consistent next year.
