I believe they have turned the corner
Nice one Kimgs
Kings have two great contracts in monk and Ellis will they take advantage of it who knows… yes the west has good teams all over but only one great team in okc… the kings got some big choices to make to take that next step
I mean isn’t it time to take the interim label off Coach Christie. He’s the coach full stop.
I heard that the way that Doug Christie runs the practices when and how long has added an edge when it comes to game time cuz their legs are fresh
We lost game 7 because Mike Brown plays bad players for too many mins and good players for too few.
I hope Christie becomes the permanent coach of the kings and a fixture in the organization for decades to come. LTB
Been a follower of you Matt, sometimes I don't agree with you, but no matter what I still love your content! Great job! Light the beam happy to see everyone happy aftert the brown firing
They have been playing excellent basketball.
When the Kings was losing. It was tough. It's great to know that they are a very good team.
Agreed – The starting lineup was expected and made sense. Who would have thought Devin Carter would play so much so soon.
As long as the kings can bunch up wins together we will be alright. I was hoping for a 50 win season. I still think they can do it. Just can’t lose a string of games together. Let’s goo rebeam team!
If the kings win Tuesday, I’m a believer !!
Sigh, some guys just cannot get off the mike brown bandwagon. Next!
I'll keep on harping about until the strings break; Kings Basketball is WINNING, TEAM basketball! You can see it throughout this streak. Proper ball movement, diverse shot selection, and hustle on both ends, especially with team rebounding! We play classic, fundamental winning basketball when we win, and that's why we have 7 straight!!!
I’m glad the Kings are winning. I’m glad Doug is getting a coaching opportunity and seeing success. Im still worried about Vivek.
The word is that the decision to fire Brown came from up above and perhaps Monte is wasn’t on board with it (at least at that moment). If Vivek did make the call, and it turns out to be the right call. The meddling owner gets the feather in his cap. Does he respect Monte’s decision making now? Does he think he gets to make more decisions?
Keep the Kings intact at the upcoming trade deadline, unless a trade can be made that obviously improves the team with giving up minimal must keep assets. And secondly, consider trading Fox at the end of the season, only if the deal is too good to pass up. A deal we can't refuse, e.g. acquiring two bigs that can shoot, rebound and play defense; and a couple of first round draft picks. Perhaps I'm dreaming……
Time to build upon the success and fill in the holes with trades. Do not get complacent, Monte!
Trading Fox would be silly at this point
The Kings didn't miss a beat, Fox shows why you don't trade a player of his caliber. Kings need to ADD to this roster
This winning streak is the worst possible thing that could have happened. The front office was going to convince themselves Mike was the problem anyway, this just delays them facing the consequences for their actions and leaving us in limbo until they’re finally gone
DC's constructive criticism and positive reinforcement is really rubbing off on this group. The pendulum has swung! Doug should be proud for uniting this team with his positive approach as HC and fairness in letting everybody eat 🤞 he gets promoted cause the kings are responding well to him
Put it in the books and send him to the line.
I couldn't understand why they weren't winning before with this team.
The problem is roster balance, not Fox. He was the most efficient player last night.
So you acknowledge MB was a big problem this season, but for last season you go right back to blaming the roster construction? Who said MB wasn't the biggest problem last season as well?
Stop with the Negative Waves.x
In Doug we trust!!!
There is only 1 problem Luxury Tax. Vivek won't go into Luxury Tax because he is cheap. He won't take a gamble too get a good 2 way wing player with length.xx
