  1. 4th overall pick, the best rookie 3pt shooter EVER, on his 3rd season, without DeMar and Monk, Keegan Murray stepped up and scored a whopping, diabolical, 14 points!!!! And a double double!!!! Future All star in the making, should 100% be untouchable on trade talks, Giannis?? Nope. We have Keegan "Airballed a wide open three" Murray.

    I'm sorry, I'm just super disappointed.

  2. Mike brown is so funny . Doesn’t play Len for 3 games , then all of a sudden wants to start him when he has no rhythm with the starters. The lineup was funky and threw the offensive vibe off . The paint was so clogged wit Len and Sabonis . That’s the reason the Kings were in an early hole . Gotta love Mike 😅

  3. Fox is awesome tonight the way they play I think taking Demar is not a good fit for the kings much better if its Cameron Johnson or Brandon Ingram they took.

  4. I wonder how often teams lose when someone score 60.. min is a better team, but still.. how can our defense to become worse when derozan is out? Oh and we had another usual opp shooting 40+% from deep night. And cherry on top were those really stupid plays at the end. Like jordan attacking gobert in paint or ellis instead of shooting wide open also attacks gobert.. or lyles being cold shooting contested 3pt. You have super hot fox and you do this shit… we can hope we can pray but reality is that this team is 0.500. Period.

  5. That was one of the greatest things I have ever seen, as someone who has been a big fan of Fox since he was drafted. The fact they fought back from 20 points down mid way through the third to take them to OT (without 2 of their top 6) gives me hope. If Fox was called the same way Antman was he would have scored another 15 from the line. The bottom line is they ran out of steam in the last 90 seconds of OT. So to quote him Fox is NICE, now what this should show everyone is that Fox needs to shown the same respect from the refs other stars get. If Fox can play like that and the Kings get Monk and DeRoz back the rest of the league better watch out. BTW Montey they need another athletic big available coming off the bench

  6. I am very happy for De'Aaron Fox. I think having that record, solidifies him as one of the top Kings players of all time.

    Now, the other part is having a deep playoff run. He gets a few of those, he will have a serious case as THE greatest King of all time.

    Right now, it is Fox, Richmond, Webber and Cousins who are the best in the Sacramento era.

    Fox has a chance to get into the part of it with Twyman and Robertson with some deep playoff runs.

    Mike Brown though should have started Doug McDermott at the SF and kept Sabonis at the 5.

    It is going to take a trade to get this team in better shape if they want to be a top 6 seed and not in the play-in tournament or out of the playoff contention all together.

    Need a backup Big, need a different SG than Huerter. If that means trading a couple of picks and Huerter and Len to get those players, I am okay with it.

    It doesn't mean it has to be a superstar, but it has to be someone who can give consistent minutes and be a threat. I am not sure who that is right now. Only that it needs to happen.

  7. The team defense loss the game. Wolves got too many easy buckets and they only got two reliable scorers. Brown instead should have started Keon at SG, moved Huerter to SF, and Keegan to PF.

  8. This was a great game despite the lost, you can see the grit the grind and persistence. Also the kings play way differently without derozan much faster pace and alot more sprays 3s

  9. Fox: 42 ATTACK points, 6 of 10 bonus points from 3, very, very commendable. I like attack dogs (or fox) on either side of the ball, whether that would result in wins or losses does not matter to me. A bow to Mr. Fox.

    You are a Sacramento Kings fan so understandable you cannot be critical of their players. So, allow me.

    – Another close lost game. How many close games have Sacramento lost so far this season? The teams in the Western Conference are telling everyone that to get into the top 6, you have to have a record of over 0.600. Losing a close game here and there does not bode well for Sacramento. The Mavs are not even in the top 10 but, you know they will eventually make a move much like last year. That means somebody has to fall out of the play-in.

    – Why does Sacramento more often than not, gets into some serious funk, wakes up, rally but, too late? How many times have we seen it this season? You could say teams "make a run", so? Why will let them?

    – How many have there been a comment of "mistake" on Sacramento's coach? Looks like signing that contract extension on his part was not a mistake, lol.

    – So many Sacramento players are so inconsistent, Huerter, for example. Murray, the double-double is nice but, a wide open airball from 3 from the rookie record setting 3 champ? Kind of reminds you of the former 3-point champion who airballed a wide-open 3 against the Lakers in 2000. Sacramento also needs to be tougher on the 50-50 balls, win more of them. Otherwise, something like the loose ball rolling over to Randle for a wide-open 3 reminds you of a very painful Divac not corralling the rebound instead tipping it over to Horry for a wide open 3.

    So, the question for Sacramento, what would it take to win more of the close games? Is it toughness on the part of the players? Or, is it a move by the front office?
