[Game] Kings @ Thunder, 2/28/2023 5:00pm Pacific 8:00pm Eastern

Well, the bench didn’t do a good job protecting a 17 point lead. Luckily OKC can’t shoot

 

[SLAB]

That was probably technically an offensive foul, but the difference between Lyles bumping a dude, and that other guy throwing forearms directly into our guy was pretty glaring.

 

[kingdivac]

Worst game in awhile from the bench.....this wont work against better teams. Brown decided to play threw the garbage

 

[iowamcnabb]

Scrappy team, they should have been knocked out several times. Come out swinging in the fourth

 

[Fantazija]

Getting in foul trouble is one thing that Domas can not do when DF is not playing.He needs to be smarter then that

 

[Capt. Factorial]

So we played 6 minutes without Domas on the floor, looked like crap, and were -9 during that stretch. Maybe just, I don't know, PLAY YOUR ALL-STAR WITH 4 FOULS IF YOUR OTHER ALL-STAR IS OUT?

I don't know. Maybe I'm dumb. But 4 is 2 less than 6. And that's 6 minutes we won't get back.

 

[macadocious]

Is Davion tired? WHat is going on?

 

[SacTownKid]

The problem is you're replacing Fox in this back-up LU... with Delly. Just horrid LU management from Brown, I don't get why he thinks this grouping would work.

Monk
TD
PJ or Kessler

At least get some real defensive pressure on the other end. Delly can't create, can't penetrate and gets picked on defensively.

Without Domas or Fox this team has to give in either work post play into the F's or run pick and roll on a steady diet. TD has no showed this game and Monk hasn't done much yet either.

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Lead down to one. Good thing Domas still has two fouls left.

 

[Sluggah]

This has become worrisome

Brown is certainly testing his bench guys. Remember, he's thinking playoffs, not season. Which isn't a bad idea long term but it doesn't take a genius to know that this team without Fox and Domas might be top 5 potential?

Yeah. Such a bad habit coaches have. Fouling out your players before they foul out.

 

[Woot!]

Obviously, not mainly his fault, but Richaun was -10 in 1:52.

 

[kingdivac]

Brown waited til damage was done to make changes.....now Kings are gonna have to fight.....no bueno

 

[King-Da-Yah]

More of that Mothers Milk! (malik monk lol)

 

[pdxKingsFan]

this is crap

Good test though, no Fox to bail them out but Brown needs to remember, Fox bails him out too, haha.

 

[macadocious]

the reffing is so ****ing terrible

 

[King-Da-Yah]

the reffing is so ****ing terrible

it’s extremely frustrating tonight…

I mean, I guess but what team does that not apply to?

Take Giannis and Jrue off MIL
Take Jokic and Murray off Den
Take Kawhi and PG off LAC

etc

 

[The_Jamal]

Huerter is set, outside the circle.

Ref mode activated

 

[Sluggah]

Set, out of the circle.

 

[pdxKingsFan]

Huerter was set wtf

 

[Capt. Factorial]

That was such a charge.

OK, my proposal is that we put the refs and the dude who invented the in-game commercial into a room and lock the door until only one of them remains.

 

[Vinny Basketballerino]

If you win your challenge you should keep it. Terrible rule.

 

[King-Da-Yah]

Why are we not attacking the paint?

 

[pdxKingsFan]

This OKC team sucks and if we chose to rest Fox instead of just use him sparingly we are dumb.

If he really couldn't go I hope he gets well quickly.

 

[The_Jamal]

If we lose this, Brown takes a big chunk of the blame tonight. But man, these effing refs. Never ends

 

[Fantazija]

Domas needs to stop passing

 

[gunks]

Kings fans should start a kickstarter for lawyer money to sue the league over atrocious reffing

At the very least it'll go viral and be on the refs minds while they're gambling online
