[Game] Kings @ Pelicans 2/5/2023 4pm Pacific 7pm Eastern

[Vinny Basketballerino]

All I can say is we now know Fox's value. And we also need a third star. Monte, go to work bud.

 

[reptilexcq2]

Glad I didn't watch this game. Fox need to be back man.

 

[AaronPDX]

Why are there starters still in? This is like watching Luke Walton era games, aka UNWATCHABLE TRASH!

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

De'Aaron Fox may or may not be the best player on the team, but (and I hate the use of this expression, but I can't think of a better one off the dome) he seems to be the only guy on the team who "Has That Dawg In Him." He appears to be the only player who has that, "We're not going to lose tonight" mentality.

 

[OldSchoolKingsFan]

Anybody have coach Brown’s number? I have a picture of the scoreboard to show him. Get Sabonis out of the game, please!

 

[Tetsujin]

Malik’s birthday + a night off in New Orleans = Bad Kings

 

[joemama]

The curse of the extended GM.

 

[fansinceday1]

104 for the pels with an entire quarter to go!!
This one is gonna be NASTY by the time the final horn sounds.

 

[forza kings]

Can we just talk about something else on this thread tonight ? Is Rick’s diner in J st still open?

What’s the path to a third star though? Picks are locked up… Keegan?

 

[dude12]

Eff it, going to watch Ellis and Burton

 

[SLAB]

Is 24 Burton? I assume so, never seen the pigtail dread style on this team before, so it must be the new guy

 

[sauce-26]

Why is metu handling the rock????

It would not surprise me at all if monte does trade keegan. I mean he did trade Hali lol. I'd be ok with it though if it can net us another star.

I'm not really concerned about the third star.

The main thing here is what happens in Fox's absence, exacerbated by having Davion do actual PG duties. As frustrating as Monk can be at times, he's the only other guard who can put leverage on opposing defenses and lead to easy offense for the supporting wings.

We're more screwed if Fox has to miss games than anything. We need a back-up creator if it's not going to be Monk.

Yeah that place always has a long ass line at night on the weekend

 

[SLAB]

Keegan ruins his 5x0 with a rebound. Smh

 

[TheMobb]

Malik’s birthday + a night off in New Orleans = Bad Kings

Ha forgot about that. I could see them tryna get Keegan drunk for entertainment

 

[MizzouKing]

I wonder if there’s something seriously wrong going on with Fox and that’s why no one has their minds on the game?

 

[iowamcnabb]

Why do we have Keegan and KVon in?

 

[sactowndog]

Dude is what he is. And that’s not very good but can play defense sometimes. He isn’t growing much more from what he is.

Well considering we could have drafted Trey Murphy it’s not looking like a great pick.

 

[Vinny Basketballerino]

Glad I didn't watch this game. Fox need to be back man.

All I can say is we aren't winning anyting without Fox, whether we have another star or not. This is Fox's team.

 

[SLAB]

And Huerter also ruins his 5x0. Smh

 

[SLAB]

Well considering we could have drafted Trey Murphy it’s not looking like a great pick.

We also should have drafted Sengun.

 

[Tizzy Flip]

Depends on what you mean by "panic." If panic means, "I told you guys we suck! We might as well trade everyone and tank for Wembanyama!" then no, you guys shouldn't be panicking right now. EDIT - If panic means, "We need to go all-in and take a homerun swing before the trade deadline," then you probably shouldn't do that, either.

I agree we don’t need to make big personnel changes. But our shooting is trending way down, and it’s not simply missing open shots. We’re not getting the volume of open shots we used to get. Teams are defending us differently (part of it is being in the middle of the season and teams know us better), and I’m hopeful Brown can make the right adjustments. Perhaps we can add a key complimentary piece, but scheme-wise we need to add a new wrinkle or 2

 

[Vinny Basketballerino]

Kings announcers sound like they are attending a funeral.

 

[White_Chocolate]

We also should have drafted Sengun.

or almost anyone else in the 1st round haha

Going to be a tough call on who gets the Chain.

 

[SacTownKid]

Keon looking pretty good so there's that. Not sure why Burton went out so quick.

 

[forza kings]

.

We also should have drafted Sengun.

That dude is gonna be better than Sabonis in a couple of years.
