I love that Mike Brown practices those last second plays. How they didn’t try and keep the ball out of Fox’s hands is beyond me LOL and thankfully he shot a 3, to ensure we win the game at the line. 2 free throws would have made me a lot more nervous, considering his struggles from the line at times.

hint that All star plays for the Kings

Oh, I thought you meant aside from Lithuania for some reason.

Also not sure how much longer Karnisovas is going to be running the Chicago Bulls the way the season's been going for him.

Lakers actually take themselves out of having a max salary slot this summer with these moves so it'll be interesting to see what they can do over the summer.

They don't... unfortunately.

All they have on the books is Bron/AD/Christie and Vandy. Beasley is a club option that they'll certainly most likely decline.

So absolutely gross they gave the Lakers Vandy. He's damn near perfect between AD and Bron

Dude vanished the second the Kings won lol

I think it’s called a Kb move around here

Gotta renounce a bunch of cap holds to get there though. Keith Smith had a thing about it on his podcast. They certainly can but that would require them giving up on a bunch of the assets that they acquired at the deadline.

That was a lucky win but

They are at about $94 mil with those players plus cap holds for draft picks if they renounce everyone else.

Refs double down/confirm it was the correct call.

Why the Rockets homers even disputed it I will never understand, they're tanking without shame. Mission accomplished.

No question. He sent Fox flying a foot and a half right.

Nekias at least has come around and acknowledged a clear bump on the alt angle.

Also, in a vacuum that would be a terrible loss but...

Do Rockets fans not know about Lins?!! They can thank us for Wemby later!

Those noobs just don't understand the concepts of woss or lin.

What the hell are they gonna do with Wemby when they already got Young Wilt Sengun and Jabari "Kevin Durant Jr" Smith Jr. as their front court of the future?

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Rockets twitter is wild man.

Like they have a page full of grievances in a game the refs appeared to be favoring the home team.

Let's give them another ten years to figure it out.

I wonder how feasible it is that the kings stay in the top 5 throughout the 2nd half? Id be satisfied for them to just break the non-playoff streak but it they want to shoot for something much higher ill take it!

My daughter is 17. She doesn't know what its like to have a kings team that is good.

The Kings keep failing to "come back down to earth" so, at this point, I'd say that people should doubt them at their own risk.

THIS! Including myself because i kept expecting pain and anguish lol i truly think if we stay healthy, we will be fine.

I mean...We've managed to stay in the top 5 after the first 54 games. I wouldn't necessarily consider doing so for 28 more games to be any different of a task. Difficult? Sure. DIfferent? No. Point is...If we keep on doing what we've been doing, I think we'll be fine at the end of the day.

Although, if we do slip a bit to end the season, I won't be too terribly upset as long as we see action past game 82 of the regular season.

Kessler coming from the Nets to the Beam Team has got to be an all-time vibes upgrade
