[Game] Kings @ Heat 11/4/2024 5:15 PST/8:15 EST

Ah Kings nightly "Let's just stop playing basketball for 4 minutes" here already in the first half.

 

[est.1999]

When will the anguish stop!?

 

[luckytkp]

Larson or whatever his name is averages 4 points a game he has 12 at half time

We have this every game.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

This looks so rough. You have to assume DeRozan didn’t think he would be walking into a situation where he would have to carry the offense just to stay in games. Fox has been super underwhelming.

and Brown left Monk in with a few minutes left to pickup his 4th foul

 

[upinsmoke]

This team has the same fatal flaw they always have. "SOFT"

 

[BosnianDiehard2.0]

and Brown left Monk in with a few minutes left to pickup his 4th foul

Brown has been really bad this season. If we don’t make the Playoffs this year, his job should not be safe.

 

[kingsfan_4Life]

Damn we suck lol. I was really hoping this year was going to be different. But I guess I was hoping for too much.

 

[Spike]

Oh dear

the current roster is very imbalance. We simply have too many point guards and no front court depth.

It’s crazy, because this was clear as day the entire offseason but Monte didn’t do anything to address it.

Oh come on

Last thing I’ll say before I go cool off and forget about this: scrap Luke’s game plan, the preseason and 7 regular season games is enough to prove that giving up the three and focusing on protecting the paint doesn’t work. Give up a few more twos if it means doing better on threes. You will not make the playoffs if teams lead by scrubs hit 40 percent or better from 3 every night. You also won’t win if you shoot 25 percent on your threes.

Shooting threes and defending them are only reason we aren’t 5-2 or better on the season after this game, everything else has looked good to great. Fix it!

Yes….especially if our three point shooting continues to suck. Just can’t live with that big of a disadvantage with the three.

 

[kingsfan_4Life]

Oh come on

Sorry the time for excuses is over. Had to deal with hearing excuses as to why the Kings aren't winning over the last couple of years. Tired of the excuses. I use to be the biggest Kings apologist, but I've moved on from that. Just tired of it.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

It's why I argued against giving him a raise after last season. I thought he should have proved it through the final season of his first contract

What frustrates me the most is we are supposed to have advantage on guard position, but the other team guards are shooting like Steph and buddy.

The last couple of years are literally the only two winning seasons the Kings have had.

Don’t worry, we have a 6’2 195lb guard who may, or may not be playing after January

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

The dreaded heat check.

 

[Sluggah]

Amazing Keon D there

 

[BosnianDiehard2.0]

Keonnn

You know Kings culture…championship or die

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Well, it's nice to come in after work to a game where the box score says we can't defend the three at all, and then at least see Keon do that.

The part that doesn't bode well, is that 3 point defense has been a weakness for all 3 seasons under Brown

But were they 82-0?

And we would have won many more games if we played hungrier and with lots of fire and determination instead of making some of the same mistakes over and over again.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Nice moving screen by Butler there

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

nice 3.5 steps

 

[Sluggah]

Taking a little more interest in defending the 3, illegal screens aside

Oh, well, as long as you're sure...
