The circumstances being that the Kings are playing like ass?
Someone who was watching this game in real time would never believe that Maxey only had 21 points.

It's about time to put a fork in this one. The Kings don't need a senseless injury with the Bucks coming up.

We’ve been very fortunate playing a bunch of teams without a key player. And it seems like we’re worn out and we’re not even at the halfway point. We really need to get Fox some rest. This would have been the perfect game to let him take a break.

Agreed, somewhat concerning. Usually Sabonis or Monk can fill the void but not tonight
I still think that Brown should have given him the Pistons game (and maybe the Hornets game, too) off. Kings probably could have won those games without him.

It’s very concerning. Most of the contending teams know the season is a grind and let their top guys take needed breaks. We don’t. And I get it. Brown doesn’t want to take making the playoffs for granted. But unless we get Fox and Sabonis some help, we’re gonna flame out

If I'm an NBA player in the 10-15th man range, why am I not putting up 1000 threes a day and 1000s fts a day to get as good as I possibly can at shooting. Do I not have the time? Do I not have the 3-4 hours it takes to do this between all the bench sitting I'm doing? I have coaches paid to feed me the ball on these drills.
For someone who has been campaigning for more playing time, Vezenkov did not exactly acquit himself well in the non-garbage time minutes he got tonight.
Kings have lost ten in a row versus the 76ers. Boogie's Revenge?

It looks like Kings are two tiers below the Sixers. Can't even make it competitive against a team missing Embiid? Monte has some work to do.

no, that the Sixers are the better team tonight. Great defense and making their shots max. Tip of the hat situation
Why would you assume that they're not? There are probably hundreds of guys who are automatic... in practice.
One has nothing to do with the other. I didn't say that Vezenkov was the reason the Kings lost; what I said was that there's a whole thread asking, "Why isn't Sasha playing?", and then he got to play in minutes that mattered, and didn't do anything.yeah surely . .. his crappy 2 minutes were the reason to lose this game
Don't want to argue mate , especially after that awful game , were mood is below 0 at the moment ...
They trashed us everywhere .... Domas,Fox,Murray,Lyles all were crap today , colby jones i did not understand what he was doing , watch the whole game did not realize Duarte has 10 min...
What is suppose to happen for 2 min that you can proove yourself !?
But really pointless to argue , so yes he did not do anything in those not garbage time he played
Real problem here is that Kings are pooooor as Bulgarian team when they face a bit physical team and strong under the rim ... Pelicans , now Phyly and they were without Embiid
As someone wrote abobve , can not see good futrure with Giannis in two days ...

Monte might need to make a call here. Like he did before the Hali trade. Let Fox take some time off and let Davion get a little shine. If Monte is truly thinking top shelf and long term contention then the short term might have to take a back seat.

Why would you assume that I assume they are not? Do you have evidence for your claim that hundreds of guys are automatic, Peja level in practice? Because it's the exception when we hear of someone even putting up these numbers, let alone hitting 80+% of them.
Also, related question - if you put someone on ignore, can they also not see your posts? Because I would prefer if you never quote me, as it is usually a nit pick, low value point that you make.
Because if you don't assume that they're not, then it's a pointless question to ask. Assuming that they're not is literally the only reason to ask why they're not doing it.
I've never had occasion to find out.
