That was...

.... fun?!!

 

[ShastaKingsFan]

He's a completely one dimensional player but that one dimension is what got him paid in the first place. That said at his best this team can't afford the highest paid backup C in the league. Totally bad value but he can help the team with what he does.

Before the bashing to his eye, he did more. Off ball shot blocking and good parimeter defense, when switched onto wings/guards

 

[NewArena]

I’m really proud of this team and impressed. Keep it up Kings!! I’m remaining positive.

League Pass showing the Klay 37 point quarter at halftime because of course it is.

They are down 12, we can at least watch it and laugh looking at Klay's bags and bags of ice on his knee now.

Ironically, this may be the first time we've played the Warriors since it happened that our announcing crew HASN'T mentioned it.

Enjoying this game as as sixers fan, fox is awesone

 

[Kingz19]

Domas 14 points 11 rebounds 4 assists

Fox 18 points 4 assists

That will get it done.

After that "Horry-scale" BS on the Fox game winner I know the casual trolling of Kings fans by the NBA has to be intentional.

well done Kings, quite happy with the play

I thought at the start of the season those two guys at the top would be the best indicator of how well the teams offense is running. I expected a lot more draw and kick though. This is the missing piece to the puzzle. If they can find spot shots for Barnes and Murray, this team is going to be a tough out.

 

[NewArena]

Keep attacking, Fox! Don’t settle for J’s. I love this kid

 

[Kingster]

He's still recovering but I've noticed like with Barnes, they aren't really looking for him nearly as much anymore. That probably has something to do with their team having so many guards now. Even Wiggins is basically a huge SG. Klay as that 3rd guy is legendary, as a 2nd? I never really got those vibes from him but he can obviously go off on any given night or quarter as Grant would be happy to tell you about around a campfire.

They aren't looking for him as much because he's not the same player, ergo they must look elsewhere.

I think we've seen him enough to know that while it would be awesome if he wasn't the type that once his offense is rolling his effort, energy, and everything else picks up it's what he is.

 

[Larry89]

Fox is an all star, he looks like hes moving badly and has a bad knee but he has 18/4 at half time

 

[NewArena]

Start fox monk and hunter for all I care. Bench Barnes

Bingo!

 

[The_Jamal]

Malik Monk a total stud. Might need a change where he's in the starting 5 and move huerter down to the 3. Just adds such a dynamic offensive guy to play off Fox Sabonis.

I'm ready for Metu at the backup 5 full time. His athleticism played super well and he at least keeps out of the paint offensively. Had a few really nice passes too to set up easy shots. He and Lyles are pretty well securing those backup big minutes.

Fox/Sabonis just starting to cook together and it's so fun to watch. They're a hard duo to shut down, especially if we're nailing the drive and kick.

These people never worked with dogs before?

If you want the dog to move to a certain place, you gotta all hover by that place and not spread all over the place yelling random instructions and throwing treats willy-nilly...

 

[Kingster]

I thought the Warriors might come out ablazing because of losing five in a row. If the Kings can just play some fundamentally sound basketball in the 2nd half and get half as many ref calls as what they deserve, Kings should be fine.

Lmao wow. I think I’m just gonna record the rest of this game and watch later though. My nerves can’t handle it because now i REALLY want this win.

He could still turn it around. Probably not on this team. Interestingly, I don't recall that the high percentage short distance shot was what earned him the starting job, when he was brought in to be a backup. I remember a hard nosed energy big. The extra offense came a little later, with all the playing time

 

[SacTownKid]

Domas 14 points 11 rebounds 4 assists

Fox 18 points 4 assists

That will get it done.

And if and when the Warriors gear their whole gameplan around them in the 2nd half that's when Barnes and Murray have to be ready to step it up. Keep launching. Don't overthink things.

It’s San Francisco, most of these people have probably never seen a dog in their lives before arbitrarily splurging on a purebred puppy.

They did. As usual hit us in the mouth and we were down 9-1 early. But a big change with the Mike Brown Era is we keep fighting and don't just let the game fall away. Such a fun change as a fan to watch

Yeah, I think the pouting is going to get into full swing here soon. Brown had a meeting with him and his people after getting hired, that said it all. They clearly wanted guarantees and those are in the trash at this point.

First season he left, and GSW is the absolute bottom in team defense rating. Can't argue with facts.

ASOLUTELY. JACK IT UP!

Kings have a 64.28% chance of winning. We shall see.

Curry is going to have a lot to say about that percentage in the 2nd half. What does he have? - 20 points off of 7 shots or something absurd like that?
