One of the more impressive wins of the year on both sides of the floor. That's a nice way to ring in the New Year.

Monk, Lyles and Mitchell were 18-21 tonight. That probably never happens again but hats off to those guys.

We have tried this with a few players the last 2 seasons. I guess throw some stuff at the wall and see what sticks. Edwards stuck (I guess) just garbage time guy. Sasha is becoming garbage time guy as well.

Lyles was perfect from the floor and from the line. Monk had a game-high 27 in only 21 minutes.

Lyles had a certain stroke and I can’t put my finger on why but I knew they were going in when they left his hand.

His body language right after the release showed that he thought they were going in

I loved the idea before tonight but i wasn't sure it would happen. I'm certainly liking the result tonight, even if Huerter doesn't shoot well -- he's still a threat

People forget that man (Sabonis) broke a bone in his hand way back in December of 2022. I think this version of Domas is even greater because he's fully healthy, so, hopefully he can hand KOC and a few other national media detractors a healthy serving size of crow one day very soon. Preferably during the 2024 NBA Playoffs.

I did.. He had been shooting so many in practice for so long that I figured one of these years he would have to get better. I know he's 40%+ this year, but I can see him from now until retirement a decent 36-39%, which is all we need from him.
He also had random games every year where he couldn't miss from outside. They were rare, but there were flashes.
He built his offensive game the right way -- perfecting finishing in the paint through contact, then perfecting the pull-up mid range game, then working on expanding his range. Defenders have to respect him from everywhere in the floor now... and he knows it too.

I told ya in the beginning of the season that the Kings should start Duarte lol.....cuz I know Huerter defense make the Kings very weak as a team. Next up, if they can replace Barne with a lengthy guy that actually play defense and not soft (such as Siakam), then they're going to be elite.

Kings should sign Mark Jones for life as a Kings commentator lol. Every time he call the game, the Kings most likely win lol.

Just like before the season, it’s not clear where he can find minutes. Trey is back on track, Len has been getting a few of the back up 5 minutes. The way they stagger the stars there really isn’t many back up 3 minutes. Even our starting 4 only had 20 minutes tonight. Tough situation for him and we as fans are disappointed not to see him get more action. Traded and injuries can happen though so he just has to stay ready

Yes, the rotation is tough, I would hate if he's traded as a filler. Brown hasn't allowed him to show his full potential yet.

those are those flow mind states I was referring to in one thread, simply effortless and in one, smooth motion where everything aligns correctly. I get those feelings myself when I'm just shooting around, the elevation, release point is all spot on

if this is the case, it makes me wonder why go through all they did to bring him over and sign him to three years? perhaps he will have more of a role after one full NBA season, who's to say. Injuries do happen too so he will stay ready I'm sure but from a psychological point of view, this is a tough transition to go through for him.
