[Game] Kings @ Phoenix Suns, 2/13/2024, 7:00p PT/10:00p ET (TNT)

[Capt. Factorial]

Monk is sped up right now

 

[SacTownKid]

That camera shot of Keegan in front of Durant was strange. They are very similar in terms of their build and length.

 

[Tetsujin]

Domas just having a monstrous game. Did Nurk get hurt or something because the Suns have just failed to put any sort of pressure on Sabonis without him on the floor?

 

[Capt. Factorial]

"It's my la-a-a-st one!"

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

No idea why Fox is rushing a shot there

 

[DynaPamm]

OMFG please anybody stop Gordon

 

[Kingz19]

Terrible close to the half

 

[Sluggah]

Wahhh wahhh.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Don't like the way that quarter ended but Kings still up

 

[Capt. Factorial]

No idea why Fox is rushing a shot there

The whole team played the last three minutes like they were watching a video on 2x

 

[iowamcnabb]

We have done this a few times recently. Need to get quality shots and a stop or two to end the half.

 

[forza kings]

Fox sometimes makes the dumbest decisions.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

Low IQ basketball

 

[luckytkp]

The last 2 mins summed up this team. They took questionable shots and relexed on defense after having a 10 points lead.

 

[SacTownKid]

The Kings need to carry this home. No Beal to end this, I think the Suns simply don't have the depth. Biggest 2nd half of the season so far ahead.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

The finish to that quarter could have been worse. Not much worse, but... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[kingsboi]

built a double digit lead only for it to be down to three in a matter of two minutes or so

 

[sauce-26]

Barnes having a swayze game again

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

That camera shot of Keegan in front of Durant was strange. They are very similar in terms of their build and length.

They always exaggerate Durant's height. He's 6'10, but many always call him "a 7 footer". Murray is close to 6'9

 

[Kingz19]

HB brought donuts. It had been awhile.

Also need more from Keegan!

Domas, Monk, Fox and Huerter played very well.

Davion making an impact defensively.

It’s a shame to contain Booker but then have a bunch of Eric Gordon in 2024 nonsense

 

[megapoxy]

So Suns turning to KD as center again like weeks ago, but still the ball doesn't go to Domas under the basket at all to take advantage of it, instead mostly shooting 3s that don't fall in (from Fox and Barnes).
HB is a ghost again so far in the game, he could really help getting inside especially if the Suns continue to play without a center.

 

[King-Da-Yah]

Vince Carter is still that GUY.

Suns should get used to it, they built their team around 3 injury prone max players. Their big mistake was trading for Beal. They could have had 2 starter level role players to surround two top ten-ish players.

So far this has been Fox and Domas all the way. Both Keegan and Barnes are playing the role of off the ball shooter right now.

The playoffs tell that tale. If Beal is healthy in the playoffs, home court be damned, nobody wants Phoenix early on.

I thought Durant was a legit 7 footer or 6’11” and he himself downplayed his height and said he was 6’9” because he didnt want to be played at power forward.

 

[Bosnian Diehard]

Always leaves a bitter taste ending the half with the opposing team cutting into your fairly nice lead. Start of the third, I need to see an aggressive Fox not settling from three. Overall, pretty happy with everyone besides Barnes. Defense has been solid but they’re on fire.

 

[Caccia]

Passing the ball directly to an opponent, as Huerter did just now, is the equivalent of an own goal in soccer.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Sabonis putting the man in big Man!

Got extremely lucky that Phoenix didn't cash in on that possession.

 

[Tetsujin]

lol Keegan just somehow outlengthened KD on that pokeaway
