[Tetsujin]

I don't remember keegan having this bad a stretech even from last season. He just looks bad. like g-league bad.

He did. And it actually was in November too

 

[MizzouKing]

Davion in and immediately commits a foul.

 

[est.1999]

Yes.

Cool story, guy. I know you feel superior on this website, but lying out of your a** isn’t a good look

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Kris has changed places with keagean something is off

 

[Hoovtrain]

Well hey at least they aren’t down 30
Guys

 

[Tizzy Flip]

God forbid we lose to a team trying to tank and without Brogdon, Scoot, Simons, and Robert Williams

We may have different perceptions. That's fine. Accusing me of lying is generally a bad move, and I'll give you the opportunity to take it back.

They aren’t trying to tank. Chauncey Billups is fighting for his basketball life.

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

It's the first time he's played against his twin in a real game....and it might have him distracted somewhat. Either way, he's in his head right now

 

[KF8]

He did. And it actually was in November too

Maybe his struggles are just more magnified since he's taking on a bigger role for the team in his 2nd season.

 

[SacTownKid]

Why is NBA feel so deep now? Like everyone is good or can be good. The kings can go from first to last in a season. They have to either improve or get left behind, we can’t play the same as last year and expect to surprise anyone

And every team went shopping at athletic wing mart. Monte, you're on the clock pal, haha. Kings still need some of that.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

You know it’s bad when Monk is missing free throws!

Coming into tonight, Malik Monk had never missed three free throws in the same game in his NBA career.

Tanking is mostly dead anyways

 

[206Fan]

Keegan is so bad that I don't have enough words left to trash Huerter and Barnes

 

[Kingz19]

Kings shooting the three badly. Again

well, Keegan is

 

[Tizzy Flip]

They aren’t trying to tank. Chauncey Billups is fighting for his basketball life.

Lol, they’re tanking whether their coach wants to or not. This is a bottom 5 team

 

[Folsomkingsfan]

Keegan Murray is playing an incredibly low iq brand of basketball that I didn't think he was capable of doing. I got Marcus Thornton flashbacks watching him.

 

[The_Jamal]

IDK what to say. But I think has to start with Keegan. Dude is supposed to be the 2nd scorer on this squad is given the green light and he's showing up with another 2-13 shooting performance. This isn't rookie Keegan anymore where he gets a pass for playing bad; if the expectation is he's supposed to be a star, then he needs to get critiqued like one.

HB looks real real bad on both ends. Took 3 shots (once again, no aggression), but 2 of them were like quick 3s with like 20+ seconds in the shot clock? Grant just working him over and over again

Huerter 2-6 shooting. Same deal. He's on the floor to make shots and worse the DHO and it's not there.

There's only so much we can absorb here. Core that was so rock-solid and consistent last season just stinks right now.

 

[Tetsujin]

Not quite yet. Especially with Scoot out.

 

[iowamcnabb]

An improvement over last game so far but we just had a stretch in the 2nd that didn’t go well. Blazers are shooting pretty hot right now so that is something to watch in the second half. Gotta do better on Grant. Might be a Kessler night

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Keagan and Michelle have regressed and it’s killing us this year so far.

 

[206Fan]

Also incapable of dribbling a basketball.. he was "cut off" twice in the paint and put up terrible shots. I don't know what's wrong with him, but all of his shots feel like empty offensive possessions right now.

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Man I’m disappointed In this team

 

[iowamcnabb]

Tanking is mostly dead anyways

A team starting Brogdan, Grant and Ayton is not trying to tank. They may pull the plug after the all star break but they are full blow trying to win now.

 

[Tetsujin]

Keegan is showing off a level of shot creation that he didn’t have last season. Those shots just aren’t falling for whatever reason. Defensively, the dude’s been really solid though

 

[Tetsujin]

Take me down to bad basketball take city where the shots are bad and the game ain’t pretty

 

[Tizzy Flip]

Not quite yet. Especially with Scoot out.

Sure, you should go bet on that then. Vegas has a juicy 25.5 win total over/under for them for you

 

[Rob-The-Great]

Going to have to disagree on this one sir. He looks stiff as ever out there and nothing looks smooth, including his defense and jump shot

 

[SacTownKid]

You might be hitting the nail on the head in one way. Thornton never ever got to the line much either. Keegan has to start getting to the line. He unlike Thornton should be able to.

the touch just isn’t there. The missed threes have been pretty far off, the mid range is weird and his touch around the basket has been back to soft Keegan. He is the baseball player that can’t hit until summer haha
