Honestly don’t know why Hali and fox didn’t work out. Fox almost seems like a fast sg compared to pg. glad we made the trade but a part of me thinks brown could have made it work

Fox need to work on his free throw man...he doesn't seem consistent to me. Even Sabonis is better than him i think...Sabonis doesn't seem to miss when he's at the line. But FOX? Nah. When it comes to technical foul...Fox shouldn't be shooting it...I rather see Sabonis. Tonight, Fox wasn't that clutch...turning the ball over twice in crucial time. And I think he doesn't go to the basket that much...keep shooting 3s. He should attack and focus on his bread and butter play. Yes, he did attack...but I just feel it's not enough. Look at Giannis...he attacks every opportunity he get...that's what Fox should be doing...
Thanks Coach. Do you have any spots open on your Rec League team? I'd love to play for you. You sound amazing and insightful.
Well, refs gotta start actually calling those fouls.
You've got to be kidding me with this crap.
Ok, so you're complaining about Fox and FT's when he shoots 78% for the year? Why, because he missed 2 FT's tonight? So did Malik Monk. And he's an 89% shooter. Where's the complaining about him? SMH.
Not only that, you completely wreck your rant session by lobbying for Domas as a foul shooter when he shoots a lower percentage than Swipa, at 76%. In what universe does that make any sense whatsoever?
Furthermore, you're dogging Swipa for not being "clutch" tonight when he scores 35 points 13/23 shooting and 5/12 from 3? And 13 points scored in Q4 on 5 for 7 shooting? You point out the couple of turnovers, but nary a mention of the turnover he forced off Kris Middleton?
Again, in what universe does any of this make sense??
The KINGS lost tonight because they allowed Giannis too many easy, virtually uncontested shots in and around the paint -- which allowed MIL to stay in the game the 1st half -- then had to withstand a Bucks team that just couldn't miss a perimeter shot the 2nd half.
They didn't lose because Fox missed two freaking FT's or made a couple turnovers. I mean, he had 3 turnovers for the game and 2 steals. There's no way to spin this as bad game. I mean, WTF were you actually watching tonight?
Even if you had the remotest of points, you still feel it's appropriate to trash Fox over one game when he's the clear runaway favorite for clutch player of the year??
I.DON'T.GET.IT.
If you aren't willing to go look up the stats, then don't make a claim you can't back up.78% is not good. He should be shooting AT LEAST above 80%. Early in the year, he was clutch at the line...shooting above 85%. He ain't clutch at the line is all I am saying. I tend to see Sabonis making clutch shots at the line more than Fox. Go study the clutch shots at the free throw lines and tell me if I am wrong. Don't look at the overall percentages...that ain't nothing.
Kings are getting the best efforts from great teams now. The elite are gunning for the Kings. The Kings lost, but they didn’t back down.
I agreed, Barnes isn't that great defender. He's above average. He doesn't have the length and strength to bother someone if they're taller than him. I think Brown should go with Kessler guarding Giannis....at least Kessler can make him work. Barnes is the type of defender that let you back him down and do whatever you want...which is not going to work. I know nobody can guard Giannis but at least with Kessler...he has better footwork...i think.

Kings Reddit bombarded with prickly Bucks “fans”. Brook is at least as much responsible as Lyles for what happened wish he had gotten his head ripped off.
I want more. Just like Brown. Why? Because I see where he can do more. You look at his stats and it's what you want from your All Star. But I'll tell you one more thing that I wanted from him tonight as a point guard - I wanted him to set a faster pace in that 4th quarter. He's got to force the issue at times. He was just too cautious or too passive at times. Maybe it's because he's too cerebral. I want him to tap into the "F-it, I'm taking this mutha to the basket, period," type of mentality. The Bucks needed to feel his speed in the 4th and I don't think they ever did. They played at their pace and the Kings played at the Bucks' pace, which made it too comfortable for the polished Bucks' team against the relatively unpolished Kings' team.
78% is not good. He should be shooting AT LEAST above 80%. Early in the year, he was clutch at the line...shooting above 85%. He ain't clutch at the line is all I am saying.

No interest in hiring a sarcastic player. The reason is that with a sarcastic player...they couldn't make up their mind when to attack and when to shoot. FACTS!

I've noticed the same thing. There's a noticeable room for improvement there. Out of our top 8 players, I'd pick him last to go to the line for big free throws. He shouldn't be picked to shoot techs at this point either, like they did tonight.
Sure it is, 'cause the Kings lost. If the Kings had won, it would have been somewhere in the middle of the second segment, they'd have showed all forty-two of Antetokounmpo's points, and then mumbled a halfhearted "Kings win" at the end of the highlights package.
True and why did the Bucks win? They rode two of their stars to the top and made plays. That's it. Domas kind of disappeared and Huerter stepped in to fill the void. But, if that's what happens then you really have to get stops somewhere along the line. Riding different role guys night to night is only usually possible if you have like those Lakers dynasty teams where former MVP level players come to ring chase. This team ain't there yet.
You two with your FT nitpicking is beyond maddening. You don't like his "routine" and because of that would choose a statisically worse FT shooter? What sense does that make?
Thank the basketball gods Mike Brown is this team's head coach. You know, the likely runaway COTY who clearly disagrees with the FT coaching weekend warriors we have here at KF.
I probably should do a deep dive into FT makes in the last 5 minutes and when the scores is within a certain range to demonstrate how silly you guys are.
Singularly focused on the wrong thing for this game.

The finals rematch will be a fun one.
Fox had said if Giannis had just dribbled it out the game was over, Giannis cut right by Lyles and odds were he whispered something in his ear.I can't say I blame Lyles. I would have wanted to go at him too. He just shouldn't have started with Giannis, that was the mistake.

I don't think the Bucks are generally a dirty/heelish team, but they came into Sacramento with something to prove. I think its been a long time since we got that out of a team that actually won something recently.
