Yeah he's the heart and soul of this team. His "lows" on the floor are lower than I would like when he's off, but I don't think you can replace what he's brought chemistry wise to this team and just the "IDGAF" attitude in terms of not being afraid of the moment and sparking the Kings when they need him. We've been having a lot of talks about who is core on the Kings roster and I think Monk is firmly entrenched in that designation.
Agree.. Good take.. I would like to also say this.. Win or lose come Sunday we have had an amazing ride this year, and I look forward to an even better year next year! 55 wins is the goal, and a chance at the championship! Now all we need to do is beat those dang eastern conference power houses like Milwaukee (thank goodness they are done), Philadelphia and Boston. If we did make it to the finals this year I don't want anything to do with Philadelphia or Boston. Please give me the Heat or the Knicks!
We play well against the Lakers, and would still have home court! Lets go Kings! Finish GSW and then whoop on the Lakers like we did in pre-season. Phoenix and Denver don't scare me at all. Against Denver we would walk out 1-1 in the first two easy... With Phoenix we play well against them, and would have home court! Could you imagine having home court the entire Western Conference playoffs? Crazy stuff. We take Lakers 4-2 easy. If it's Phoenix we would take them 4-1 or 4-2 and if Denver probably 4-2 or 4-3. Every other first round matchup is done. We are the last two teams playing in the first round. Hopefully it doesn't leave us as being tired, but seeing that the 1st round is on pace to have taken about 3 weeks to finish I think we are pretty well rested.
3-1 against they Lakers (5-1 including pre-season with two 40pt blowouts)
2-2 against the Suns (3-2 including pre-season)
1-2 against the Nuggets

And they still only shot 40% from the field (though good on 3s), less free throws, and turned the ball over 19 times.
The Warriors just seem to have our number for the usual tricks of the offense, but I really want to light up the Laker's loser perimeter players should we close out Game 7. They're strong and physical inside with Street Clothes, that's about it.
We shouldn't have to contend with the obnoxious shot-making or gravity from those guys. I've been looking forward to a game when they just make it rain from 3.

Mike Brown is the best coach we’ve had since Rick Adelman. He has the respect and admiration of the players. So many youngsters with a real coach to mold them. Time will tell if he becomes better than Adelman. I hope he does. Our team under Adelman was better IMHO, but so we’re our opponents. The Stockton Malone Jazz, The Shaq Kobe Lakers….I look forward to the POTENTIAL of who this team can ultimately be. Oh yeah and btw, Fox is a major STUD.
observations for Game 6; Kings played faster and better on defense when Sabonis was out. The bench won this game with all their contributions. Minutes reduced for Davion and no minutes for Len was coach Brown and staff's adjustment. Let's see what adjustments Kerr makes in Game 7. Keegan playing lots of minutes is great, not only is this a learning experience for a rookie but it continually leaves a elite floor spacer out there. Win or lose Game 7, this team has exceeded my expectations for this season. I thought this would be the last game of the season for them.
