I do like Russel Westbrook and Dennis
But hopefully, both players can click in all cylinders for the rest of the season. Yes rebounding is the weakness that the kings have and defense
good grief
Never answer hypotheticals.😉
“YOU DONT LIKE DENNIS SHROEDER OR ANYTHING OF THE SORTS”
Dennis body language is horrible in regards to his own teammates. (Keep an eye on him when he doesn’t have the ball). Not a great leader, but a good ball player. Very talented, but man I can tell Westbrook doesn’t like him personally. Let’s see how this goes.
3.6 million compared to 14 million is disrespectful.
Dennis gives them stability at point for a couple years. I think they are better with both Russ and Dennis even after losing the big guy. Plus injuries happen and right now if one of them gets hurt it keeps things going. We saw what no point Gaurd was like last year.
Why does it matter if Westbrook likes his teammates? That's not what he's there for in my opinion.
Damn where is base147 when you need him. Almost like he only comes out of the woodworks when Schroeder plays well and doesn’t say jack when he’s a significant reason why a loss occurred 🤨🤔
I like em both …they seem to play well together..couldn’t care less if they like each other…I’m good
When it comes to the 2 man game, Monk is better with Sabonis than Westbrook and Schroeder because Monk doesn't pass the ball to Sabonis' feet. I need a Nerf brick to throw at my screen every time someone passes the ball to Sabonis' feet. Very frustrating for pros to be that bad at passing.
Kings fans are a special breed. Compare the situation to the last two years. You all don't like it if the Kings playing well during season? Complaining is characteristic…
Matt, the conversation is disrespectful!
One thing I will add about Keon, the Kings are 28-22 when Keon is a starter over his career. Just sayin'.
Russ is not a real PG 🎉
Why Russ just can’t hoop?.. why it always has to be the talk around his playing time in conjunction with his teammates?.. like why speculate vs just watch what the coaches decide n what they do on the court
Dennis has been playing great though

Russ has always been a starter. The whole come off the bench thing started with the Lakers – they had the wrong type of team constructed around him and LeBron and AD were always injured. If he started, it would be amazing because he can set the tone – the defensive identity and get guys going quickly.
still think the question is a little bit disrespectful
No matter what scenario you pick, the Kings are a play-in team at best. Thats just the reality
Domas gets paid to play through injuries. And yet on Wednesday we were better without him. Trade him away. His best value he can give to this franchise is what we can get in exchange for him.
