Awww...Lakers lost. Darn shame.

 

[whozit]

I feel bad about it...but the Suns being good kinda annoys me.

They knock out the Lakers and I will be happy for them. Then they can lose next round. That thing about the enemy of my enemy even if they don't recognize me as their enemy is my friend thingy.......

If the Kings start to play defense they could be in the playoffs next year. All the top defensive teams are pretty good teams that are in the playoffs, you just can't go far with poor defense.

Kings last in def rtg this last year

Fun watching players respond to the crowds and even MSG seems way hotter than I’ve ever seen it even when the Knicks had good teams in the 90’s. Basketball definitely suffers from no crowd more than most other sports.

You know, we can pay all the lip service we want to hating LA, and being sick of LeBron, and how much the Clippers suck/are overrated/etc., but if the western conference finals actually ends up being Phoenix versus Utah, there are zero people on this message board who are going to watch.

False! I am rooting hard for Utah in the West. I don’t want the NBA to be a three or four city league. If the NFL can have stars in Green Bay and Tampa the NBA can have stars in Utah and Sacramento.

 

[Kingz19]

Alec Burks looks mighty good in the playoffs for a guy who couldn’t get minutes on the Kings

Speak for yourself

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

If y'all say so. I'll believe it when it happens.

 

[dude12]

Knicks Hawks and MSG going crazy is fun to watch

 

[Kingz19]

Bogdan with a couple clutch threes

 

[captain bill]

Bogi with his 2nd clutch 3 in the final minutes to keep the Hawks alive

 

[SLAB]

Trae!

 

[Kingz19]

Good game.

Trae Young is ridiculous

 

[SLAB]

Imagine the joys of jumping up in the draft and picking a superstar. I wonder what that feels like?

Ayton Doncic and Trae all had monster games and W’s this weekend. 2018 sure is shaping up to be some kind of draft class

 

[sactowndog]

Burks had a hell of a game.

I thought you’d been here long enough to know that ain’t true. Besides those who just say they’ll watch, I know of 2 I’m sure are going to watch. @Npliam and @PHXSUNSFAN

Wrong. I’ll be watching the Finals as long as the Lakers aren’t in it.

No idea.

 

[steelevt]

Good game.

Trae Young is ridiculous

I dislike Trae a lot, but I like bogi a lot. I’m just gonna tell myself that Trae game winner wouldn’t have been possible without bogi playing well late

... and Vlade drafted Darko. Lmao

 

[luckytkp]

Watching playoff games just tell me how far the kings is from getting into the playoff.

To the second sentence, touché. As to the first sentence, I believe the people who say they'll watch about as much as I believe the people who say that they won't watch, if it's LeBron. Which is, to say, not much.

That's how I felt watching the bubble last year.

 

[kingsboi]

I like me some Dillon Brooks. He is one of those pesky annoying players that's constantly in your air space and handsy. He's really improved his offensive game too, no way I thought he would be this serviceable for Memphis

 

[kingsboi]

... and Vlade drafted Darko. Lmao

I don't see a D Wade in that list
