Keon Ellis has played 150 minutes over the last 10 games. He has 4 assists during those 150 minutes. That is almost impossible. This is the same dude fans can’t bear to trade. One of the player of the future averages .5 assists per 18 minutes so far this season. 😮😂😮
If I'm the kings, there are certain players I'm moving ASAP, not worrying too much about the return. Those players are Lavine and Demar. Just get them gone. Sabonis COULD actually raise his value, and unless he absolutely demands a trade, I try to hold onto him for a good trade close to the deadline or hold on to him entirely.
If I'm Keon Ellis, no way am I not at least testing free agency, and staying with the Kings will require an overpay to keep me from going to a contender that will want me.
I'm hoping the Wolves get in on the Kings fire sale…
We need a ball handling guard to pair in the back court with AntMan.
Donte Divincenzo is a good player, very good shooter but we need a better ball handler/playmaker specifically for late game situations.
The kings need Dennis be back fast 🎉
Can’t do much against the big maple 🤷♂️
14:50 Yeah Edey was +39 against my Pels last week 😢. That dude is a beast but the "not impact winning" is just not an accurate take. Everyone understands Zach and Demar cant play together but they've played together for half of his career and hes been hurt for the majority of the other half
There are plenty of offensive players who are bad at defense who has won championships so that statement is objectively untrue. They just need to be in a functional system which the Kings are not
cmon Doug, you know you didnt want the win that's why you didn't want that same lineup back. Im not even a coach but you know that the closing lineup didnt mesh together
We need to make trades asap iso ball so tough to watch. Zach on the offensive end is so inconsistent. And the offense isn’t gelling no one can hit consistent 3a tough to watch this team
blow up and trade everyone, the question is nobody wants them except Murray and perhaps Sabonis
LaVine plays not 0 defense, he plays negative defense
make the starters bench, make the bench starters
Another L
"Bench carried the starters" is getting repetitive. You should consider saying it differently. Maybe something like young players carried vets that make 12 to 23 times more than them.
Yes, the Kings have constant and revolving issues Lol!!! However, as much as I criticize the Kings, I remain exceedingly grateful just to have an NBA franchise in the city of Sacramento. Better to have a substandard team in Sac, than no team at all. And, as for coach Christie, trying to shuffle this roster's house of cards, is like trying to shuffle a deck of all loosing cards. With the weak roster Christie inherited, it's very difficult for me to gauge just how effective of a coach Christie really is, or isn't. Go Kings!!!
Kings made Edey look like Wilt Chamberlain in this game. That is unacceptable. 😡
Thank you for asking Doug Christie the tough questions at the press conference straight to his face. I do not understand what the heck he is doing!
Bench lazine
Not sure why Russ only played 20 minutes. Sure he had tough shooting night but had 6reb, 7assists and 2 steals. In a game where rebounds killed the Kings especially the offensive rebounds. Russ nearly had as many rebounds as the rest of the starters combined in only 20 minutes uses.
Take another vacation!!lolol but really!
21 games in and Nique Clifford is either not being used right or he’s just overrated.
Russ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Trade him as soon as possible. Mr. TROUBLEDOUBLE. 😂😂😂😂
LET IT ALL TO DENNIS ❤❤❤❤
Kings had no answers for Edey tonight. They need a real big for center an actual rim protector and defender so they can compete with other teams operating around bigs
I miss seeing Dennis play 🙁
Lavine needs to be on the bench next to Dougie Buckets, sorry but his complete an utter lack of a pair of huevos has put the team in crater in almost every game he has played after Domas has been out. Trade him, but him out or just put in on the edge of the bench yes Zach you are talented but have no heart. The only positive other than Monk in this game was the big minutes Maxi was out there showing a few things. Keo deserves better, he just put effort in, play the man, sit that bum wearing number 8
At this point why would we want the kings to win any games? I’m not mad when they lose. What good would it do us to be middle of the pack and win more games?
Why not blame the coaches see you cover for Doug Christy I don't like it. He's the coach. Why does he take the job if he's gonna be told what to do. It makes him look bad. No one else will ever hire this guy. I know he's the same man.
LaVine showed who he is when he told the fan if he didn’t like watching his lack of effort and defense he should just go home! It explains why despite his talent he is a loser everywhere he goes. I don’t care how hard it will be to get rid of him with his contract, he needs to go. Over the length of multiple games, his +/- is worse than the rest of the starters and that is meaningful. It doesn’t seem to matter who they pair him with, they get worse with him.
