Good news kings starting 5 is real nice Bad news 2nd group needs some tweaking
Fuck the Lakers
Fox please hit these free throws so you can collect your 30 point games. Two games in a row
ain’t no way fox just said he’s not 100% and won’t be for a few months after dropping 28 points LMAOOO
that’s wild
Keegan Murray defensive player of the year
FTL‼️ take the L on the home floor ‼️
Kings run the Pacific
A little too close for comfort. Should’ve been a 20+ point win, but a win is a win.
K’Von, Foxy, and Domas with 20+ points.
As always, FTL. LeBron being a bitch not dapping up the other team.
Anyway,
#LIGHT THE MF BEAM, BOIS!
Recap. Wow.
We gotta start with Fox again. This team is night and day with Fox on the floor. For a 2nd straight game, he started the game attacking the basket and scoring the first bucket. It’s almost like he’s sending a message right from the tip. Our MVP finished with 28 points on 10-22 shooting. He literally got any shot he wanted all game long. Lakers have always struggled containing Fox. Reddish was on him most of the night and it really didn’t matter. I had to stop at halftime and really think to myself…I can’t believe we have this kid on our team. Fox is on another level this season. I think he could absolutely be an MVP candidate as soon as this season. He came in averaging 28&7 and got another 28&5 tonight. Also chipped in 5 rebounds and 5 steals. It seems like we’re going to have another successful regular season assuming we’re healthy again. How many wins will determine how high Fox is on that MVP race.
Sanonis was just as amazing tonight. Just at halftime he had 19-12-4 😂😂. He finished with 29-16-7 on 13-19 shooting. Almost all of it was on Anthony Davis. He was going straight at him the entire game. I mean that literally. He cooked AD tonight. It was beautiful to watch. We need this version of Domas in a playoff series. U can tell he clearly missed Fox; these past 2 games have been his best 2 of the season. His defense has been much improved this year. He also had 3 steals tonight and looked active defensively.
Keegan Murray. I love this kid. On paper he didn’t have the best night with 9 points on 3-9 shooting and 2-7 from 3. But his impact defensively is becoming a normal thing now. Keegan has been elite on that end. So many plays of him suffocating defenders for an entire possession. He rotates well. He’s keeping up with guards. It’s his length that makes him such a lethal defender this year. It helps him tremendously every time he gets beat by his man. He’s learned to use his upper body to take hits and comfortably switch on screens. Keegan left the game in the 3rd quarter temporarily after getting hit in the groin by Jaxson Hayes. My heart dropped. Then he came back in the 4th quarter when the Lakers were coming back on us. We were up by as much as 24 and lakers cut the lead to 8 in the 4th quarter.
Kevin frikkin Huerter. Man oh man. This guy is on fire. Kvon had 28 points on 10-16 shooting and an impressive 6-11 from 3. When Kvon is shooting the ball well, this is when we’re the most dangerous. He’s our 4th option on offense and it’s his 3rd straight 20 point game. That’s 4 games in a row where he’s hit at least 4 threes. Thank you Mike Brown for not benching him when he was struggling. This is exactly why u stick with your guys. Kvon has turned a corner and it’s beautiful to watch. U can tell he’s having a ton of fun out there. He also had 4 rebounds and an impressive 7 assists. Kvon is on one right now.
Harrison Barnes. I’m sorry, I don’t wanna be harsh. He played alright tonight. I love his leadership. Love what he’s done for us. But for us to head into contender status, HBs position has to be upgraded. He had 14 points on 5-10 shooting and 3-6 from 3. Which is not bad. Had 4 steals too. But the eye test doesn’t look too good for his future here. I wonder how we would look with Barnes coming off the bench with Malik. Maybe Sasha can be his replacement? Idk. My dream is having OG Anunoby next to Keegan. I would guarentee a few championships with that starting 5.
Sasha had 4 points tonight in 12 minutes. Only shot 1-4 and missed all his threes. Thank his we didn’t need the best shooter on the team tonight. He will bounce back.
I love Malik man. He only shot 1-8 tonight with 3 points. But he had 5 great reboukds and 5 assist. Malik is definitely a better player this season. His playmaking is something u can rely on even when his shot isn’t falling. Also his pace is needed for this team. So it isn’t just Fox being the only guard playing fast and pushing the tempo. Malik does the same exact thing and has been a perfect addition for this team. I don’t mind his bad shooting night.
Keon Ellis played 8 minutes and all the backup PG minutes. He was scoreless shooting 0-3 but he played solid defense in his limited role tonight. And that’s why he keeps playing over Davion.
McGee also played 8 minutes but had 8 points in 3-3 shooting and also had 6 rebounds, 1 assist, and 2 steals. All this talk about our backup center role this summer and Monte quietly figure it out. The Javale McGee/Alex Len expiriment is working beautifully thus far. The days of Chimeze Metu are over. Thank you god 🙏🙏🙏
Summary- we absolutely destroyed LA tonight. We were in cruise control from the 1st quarter to the 4th. We murdered them. We led the entire game and Lakers never really got close. We look so much better than them. I don’t want to overreact but our team looks elite. In my opinion, We look better than last season. We had 20 steals tonight. 31 assist as a team! That is insane. We won 125-110 and that’s back to back games where we beat elite teams pretty comfortably. I love a win. But I love it so much more when it’s against the Lakers. LIGHT THE FKN BEAM BABY !!🦊🔦🟣
PS- I believe I seen on Twitter that today was the 1 year anniversary to that lethal beatdown we gave Brooklyn on national television last season. Maybe someone here can confirm it.
LTB!
Had IF, had IF Kings beaten GSW last playoffs they would have been a BAD match up to the Lakers with Sabonis and Monk, Fox going on a rampage with their bad preimeter defense, with Sabonis having to not be guarding Steph in the perimeter. They would have beaten Lakers in 6 and would have supposed to be facing Denver in the WCF with Fox vs Murray and Sabonis vs Jokic in a WCF duel.
FTL and LTB!!! Love this squad!
AD is so overrated lmao
Boys can’t help but stress me out. But damn, first three quarters were an absolute master class.
I love beating the lakers, it’s like a drug.
