What the hell are the refs doing lol?

 

[KainLear]

hmmmm Fox and free throw again....

 

[SLAB]

Why go to Fox there?

Because our leader demanded it and he knocked them both down.

 

[Hoovtrain]

Nice win

 

[Tetsujin]

Kings win!!!!

Let’s go streaking!!!

 

[KainLear]

It was scary for a bit but it's a nice win for our young team. #CardiacKings

 

[iowamcnabb]

Ok that raised the blood pressure some

 

[Kingz19]

3 in a row.

Kings are 6-4 when Whiteside plays 10 or more minutes. So more Whiteside

 

[kingsboi]

another W versus a East foe....so as long as they don't play the West other than the Nuggets, all is good

 

[SacTownKid]

It was like CoJo was still playing the old switching scheme and everyone else was playing man to man

Yeah. They did have Buddy do that a few plays earlier so they clearly went back to it but he got totally lost.

3 in a row.

Shocking the only man who protects the middle helps this team.

 

[Woot!]

Oh I'm always happy with a W. I guess I'm pleased easily.

Oh, very happy w/the win - beggars, choosers, and all that? Not much reason to be happy with the 4th quarter play, tho. 9 TO's is ridiculous.

 

[dude12]

Bagley plays only 20 minutes. Just don’t think This is ideal while we play vets who will be gone after this year.

 

[kingsboi]

Richaun and Marvin were no shows but the bench unit really produced in this one

 

[Woot!]

Because our leader demanded it and he knocked them both down.

They called that out of the timeout. With HB and Buddy out there... I think Fox was literally the worst FT shooter out there by about 15 % pts.

 

[Vinny Basketballerino]

I will take this win!

Lasagna for all!!!

 

[SacTownKid]

This was the first game we really saw some change in terms of strategy. I just wish we could trust Walton to keep it up. This defensive scheme and 4/5 out is close to what Monte described and makes way better use of the Kings athletic tools on both ends. This might be a lucky trip after all. The Heat have had to move away from the small ball blasters they were last year with Butler out and that plays into the Kings hands.

Hassan interview!

The Heat has been abysmal without Butler. Hopefully, we take full advantage of that and not becoming the turning point for them to heat back up (pun intended, I'm sorry)

Tetsujin, you think KFC is still open?

For sure but I'd bet they know this could be a different Kings team they'll be facing. If the Kings keep playing more aggressive man to man, less help, and use their fouls wisely the Kings might be able to start picking teams off when they should.

Tyrese Haliburton is good at basketball

The Heat should trade Bam to a good NBA franchise like the Sacramento Kings.

Geez... coming out with that hot take!

 

[KainLear]

Joking aside, I'm closely monitoring the Ben Simmons situation. He seems to me like he needs a real change of scenery. With the relationship between our GMs, I'm sure they talk to each other a lot.

 

[SactownShaq]

I ain’t watch the game, someone fill me in why raps fans so mad. What the refs do?

They ejected Lowry? If anything, I mean the refs were really stingy against us in the 4th quarter.

I guess maybe they think the rest of the game the refs were gunning for them?

 

[Woot!]

Have to fly to Miami for the 2nd of a back-to-back. Buddy played almost 40, HB over 37, 34 for Fox.

Rough.

Hmm the raps fans just being salty in the kings comments thought it was some controversial foul call at the end or something lol
