Why TF are you calling a TO NOW?

After NO lost last night, this was probably the most important game of the entire bubble period. Ugh is right.

His players played their ***** off for him and Luke Walton just flushed it in an instant. I hate to say it, but LeBron might know a thing or two about a thing or two.

This team just had too many guys out and too many guys just not ready to go.

You delayed the inevitable with that play out of a timeout?

I feel bad for Fox. He needs a better team around him.

I feel like we've got the pieces for a solid team. Unfortunately not being employed in the right way.

I think a coach lacking common sense is the bigger issue here and might end up being the reason this team has little chance of breaking that streak this year. What a clear freaking bungle. He started with one bungle (2 PG's with Fox off the ball) and switched it up to a worse bungle (two big).

Baze sitting there wondering why he didn't get a chance to play down the stretch.

If only the Kings could have accomplished that impossible feat roughly 2 years ago

He was an embarrassment today. Luke was absolutely terrible. In the last 4 minutes, the Spurs ran the SAME FREAKING PLAY EVERY TIME DOWN THE FLOOR and Luke just watched it helplessly. Make a substitution. Trap that pick and roll. Don't switch the screen. Do something other than watch your team suffer from your inadequacy.

Yeah but to keep a guy like Fox around long-term, you’ll need a better than solid team.
When he becomes a free agent, I’m sure plenty of elite teams in big markets would love to have him.

Honestly had flashbacks to the Reke at SF experience but at least that made some sense because IT was good.

He proved that he just needs spacing right now. And in crunch time in the most critical position this franchise has been in in nearly 15 years his coach yanked it away from him. WTF.
If this were a normal situation you know Buddy would be out there shooting for hours after a poor performance like this. Can he do that in the bubble?
Also I can't recall a single moment this entire season where I thought to myself "Luke Walton is a pretty good coach". Maybe some out of timeouts plays is as close as it gets.

Bjelica was guarding Lonnie Walker for a good 8 minutes in the 3rd, ended up killing us when they switched Derozan onto him three times in a row in the 4th...

First things first. He better take responsibility in his post game. There are no moral victories here. You are competing with teams that don't have nearly the experience as the Kings do on their roster. For them not to make it to an 8/9 battle is honestly not acceptable. Figure it out Luke.

Unfortunately, if Luke has shown us one thing this season it is that he absolutely cannot figure it out

Bjeli is a solid defender when he’s allowed to freelance as a center but when you’re asking him to stay on a man on the perimeter, it’s just not gonna work.

Well honestly it was fun hanging with y'all in a game thread again, cheers to you all!
