Dang.. The playoffs are taking WAY too long this year it seems.. The play-in and the first round is taking a month to complete. Then you got Phoenix and Denver playing to the middle of may, and this is only the conference semi finals! We going into late June by the time the finals are completed??

 

[mrlaze]

Silver heres your chance. Dump Ja, embrace Fox, and give the kings a shot at the lakers

Steve Kerr is going to have dreams of Kings small ball dancing in his head tonight. I'm interested to see how he responds.

Hopefully other teams didn't notice Lyles at the 5. But I have a bad feeling he's going to get a hell of a lot of playoff tape with him at small-ball 5 and get RATHER expensive this off-season.

Shout-out us, this was the exact ceiling type outcome we talked about with wanting Lyles small-ball. Could not have worked better.

The best thing is, win or lose in game 7, no one can ever say the Kings were a flute anymore.

We're up ten with six and a half to go in their building, the game can go either way. Couple buckets and they're back in it and we know the Ws can score in bunches. These two threes by Huerter could not have come at a better time. Absolute money shots. We're up SIXTEEN with five to go after these and never look back.

Just got finished watching the game recording. Did not know the score except I knew we were up at the half.

How the hell did we win this with it being hyper 5 on 8. The refs must be in shambles in the locker room. I mean it was bad but this Kings team has heart, talent and a hell of a coach.

So good watching and hearing the Warriors fans cry a River…….salty, salty tears

 

[Capt. Factorial]

Can’t believe I’m rooting for the lakers right now, but I’d love for us to kick their butts out of the next series.

If you think the refs love the Warriors, wait until you see a 2002 WCF rematch.

Hopefully these two shots broke the Huerter yips. Our offense is just a totally different animal when he's himself and spacing at an elite level.

MARK JONES TALKING KINGS WIN ON THE GRIZZ BROADCAST!

 

[Ozymandias]

WE DID IT lets gooo Got homecourt back. great effort from the team!

MARK JONES TALKING KINGS WIN ON THE GRIZZ BROADCAST!

He knows. Not many national broadcasters know, but he knows.

 

[NewArena]

Are we dreaming?! We deserve this, Kings fans. Who knew after the game 4 and 5 heartbreak we’d have a night like this. Wow.

Wow! Was on the road most of the game, listening to the Warriors radio coverage, and only got to watch the 4th quarter. Brown made some huge adjustments. And kudos to him for still having confidence in Huerter and for Huerter to keep shooting in spite of the cold hand. Monk and Fox played out of their minds and TD played some key mins. Kudos to the team and the coaching staff for an amazing win!

No doubt, but this time around the moment is not too big for our guys. And I hear that Doug, Bobby, and Vlade are planning to suit up…

 

[notoriousBEN3]

I love the momentum going into game 7. Kings energy just looked off in game 5, and tonight the kings stormed back and took control from the very beginning. Heading home on that note for game 7 has got to feel great, and fill them up with energy.

Especially considering the crowd energy is going to be OFF THE CHARTS on Sunday.

 

[NewArena]

I think one day off really benefits us, while they’ve really had great games after 2-3 days off.

 

[The_Jamal]

Underrated that Davion only played 11 minutes in this one. He should be fully ready to go at Steph in game 7

 

[Tizzy Flip]

Is Sunday’s game for sure at 12:30, or does it move to the Lakers 5pm slot if they take care of the Grizzlies tonight? The NBA playoff schedule is a nightmare that 100% benefits the Lakers. Their game didn’t start until 9:30 Memphis time, when it would have more sense to have that be the first game of the evening and we have the 7:30 game

 

[HndsmCelt]

I honestly felt that the quick turnaround took home court advantage away from them. Which of course is a default way of saying: "playing at home with no rest puts those greater disadvantage than playing away with rest... You know because we're old."

 

[iowamcnabb]

Defense was really great in this one. My favorite part of this win

 

[reptilexcq2]

Let's go KINGS!! I am so pumped after this win...didn't expect a blow out. Whatever Mike is doing with the small lineups work w/ Trey Lyle. That means GS can't sag off players like Len and Sabonis to defend the paint.

The King-Warriors game 7 is Sunday at 12:30 on ABC national TV or locally carried on ABC-10.

 

[Ozymandias]

What an absolute dud of a game from Jordan Poole btw...

 

[KainLear]

 

[SCKingsfan]

Dang, I wasn't able to watch the game. Does anyone know a way to watch a replay? I know it was on ESPN...

 

[Ozymandias]

You'd think it'd have been a little tougher to win game 6 in their arena, but then you look at the disparity of bench scoring and it makes plenty of sense.

Crazy to think just yesterday I saw a post here talking about replacing Trey Lyles. He was so clutch for us in this game.

 

[Merdiesel]

Mike Brown sticking with Kevin Huerter through his brutal slump when everyone, including me, wanted to cut bait is why he’s coach of the year.
The kid broke though and will be red f’ing hot on Sunday. KH will drop 20+. Watch.

Blasphemy! On behalf of the TreyBae community, I vehemently disagree.

 

[Warhawk]

Get ready for the onslaught of "Kings got all the calls in Game 6" commentary from all angles for the next two days straight. We just need to eat that all up and grow even stronger.

Someone started that on twitter and I started posting every time there was a bogus call against the Kings. Not a peep back.
