God please make this so that tickets are affordable, if they're gonna be this ass I at least want to see it live in person
Why is Derozan and Lavine even playing this makes no sense
Just pathetic
Max had a good game that’s all can I say sell the team Vivek
To many TURN OVERS and not enough scoring. Scoring under 30 points a quarter really kills this team.
Why are these useless vets even playing heavy minutes when they can't win anymore games. Are they looking to lose 15 straight? Bench these underwhelming old overpaid vets and start developing the young guns immediately!
So when are the purple SELL shirts coming out?? 👀
I 100 percent agree with your Zach Lavine assessment. Its spot on. The good thing is though is that Doug is sitting Him when hes not scoring.
Maxime is definitely a huge bright spot. Best frontcourt in the NBA and he definitely heid his own.
I swear since Nique starting wearing braids his game has gotten worse. He looks like Maxime used to during his minutes on the court.
Spurs werent even guarding him and He was bricking literal wide open 3s. He needs a couple to go down
And defensive glue Guys can be seriously underestimated as far as their impact on wins and the team. Its very possible that Keegan coming back will make a huge impact. Glue Guys are extremely important as far as impacting wins.
Okc wouldnt be near the same without Dort and Caruso. Itd look ALOT different over an 82 game season
whew!
What’s the point of winning this year? How are they not better off getting the highest pick possible? Their best hope for the future is high draft picks. They aren’t winning a championship soon so no reason to care if they lose.
Lavine is cheeks unfortunately…
I think they have improved, esp on defense. Zach needs to have more shots. But we only have one guard that is a playmaker & passes a lot, Russ. Others are more iso. I didnt like the rotations, esp in the 4th.
Hey they competed anything is better than the hawks loss
Let's be real, we have nothing against the players' characters and as people, but I truly believe we all knew this outcome was a possibility with DeRozan and LaVine being added to the roster. Our offense has always been good with Domas at the helm, and the problem was not scoring, but defense and length, and LaVine and DeRozan did not solve any of those things.
DC going get fired!! We got scrubs on the team!!
OKC shot like poodoo, and still TKO'd the Kings without breaking a sweat
I’m a Thunder fan but love Kings. Sick ass Beam. Schroder, Sabonis, Russ were all great for OKC. Brodie is our legend. I respect SAC a lot. Best of luck Kings fans on your teams future journeys 🤙
No point talking like this after every game. Complete rebuild necessary with good intentions. No mercy, only young Pitbulls with skills should be allowed.
As a Thunder fan I say just tuff out these times. Eventually the FO will hit something. Whether it’s to move a player for a younger player you can invest in. Or get draft capital for blowing it up and just really emphasize development. This current CBA makes even 2nd RD picks more valuable. These are tuff times but this league changes quick. Hopefully Vivek gets his head out of his ass. But I do believe SAC is a great fan base, amazing arena with a Beam, and players with value that can be moved for assets. You need to just time your moves to maximize opportunities. If I’m y’all I’m looking to send out a Wing out East fringe contender for assets
How do you need to "evaluate" players who have 10 years of nba tape?
I've been considering how to keep my positive trend going and here it is. Five straight games without giving up 40 points in any single quarter!
Don't thee Kings have an offensive coach/coordinator? Shouldn't it be his primary job to fix these offensive issues? I know Christie has the final say in matters, but we aren't seeing anything new being tried. Perhaps Keegan helps change that if the offense was designed with him among the priorities in the system. We will see more tomorrow. Fans, be patient with Keegan. Don't expect a 30/10/10 triple double after such a long absence.
One last comment. Nique needs to shoot the ball. He is doing worse that Lavine in terms of taking shots. Maybe Christie needs to tell him he take a minimum number of shots?
This draft class is good enough to feel okay with sucking this year
The thunder held themselves to 113 points because they showed up like it was a scrimmage against their g league affiliate
Kings are more better have chance to win it all during fox time.
Now u are wasting your time buddy kings will not going anywhere this year period.
Intentionally or not, we are tanking, and that's a good thing.
We are now celebrating moral victories. We have officially hit rock bottom folks.
Matt, they are old. The main guys are old.. very old…and slow, very slow..kings got junks.
The only positive I can look forward to is unloading these contracts, letting the young guys play more, and hope we can land in the top 3 of draft pics. Them top 3 prospects looking good right now
blow it up and rebuild
Monte McNair and Vivek is the opposite of Sam Presti. Their fetish is ball dominant old players 😂
Lose lose lose tank tank tank rebuild rebuild rebuild
How can the Kings WIN if Christie keeps on having 4 Guards and 1power forward every Kings games???..just like the last game vs the thunders-3dQ 4 G plus Achuiwa-Schroeder keeps on making ERRORS, Lavine being locked in every shooting but the coach just let them play..very stupid decision 😡😡😡
