Excellent back to back games need more of this moving forward but love to see nice blowout wins over teams they should be beating
Turns out the best 6th man in the league is a damn good starter too… give it up for Monk
Yeah. Utah gave up open shots & had Lauri guarding Huerter at times. Good for Kevin Huerter making shots.
140+ in back to back games is impressive!
Now let's go on the winning run
Good sh*t, Matt. As always 😤👑
Huerter is way too inconsistent for 30+ mins in the starting lineup. Love him off the bench tho. He had that role with the hawks. Monk is way more productive in the lineup. Keep it going!! 🔥
What a great game! So good to see it raining 3s
jae crowder challenging Them boys in practice or whaaa
kevin heurter needs to be like braun for the denver nuggetss
Wasn't that long ago that I thought… "Wouldn't it be funny?"
Now it's got me thinking… "Wouldn't it be nice?"
Huerter Trey for Collins and clarkson would move the needle for me! But I rather defensive players not more offense !
There is no dispute, GSW splash buddy holds the sixth man 👑👍
Why wasn’t Isaac Jones out there tonight? Wasn’t even on the bench.
This is what I thought the Kings would look like coming into this season 👑🏀
Gosh only a week ago the Kings were in the toilet. Now they're sitting on it. 🙂
Utah still made too many uncontested threes. 🤥
If Kings start making 3 point shots they can beat any team in the NBA .
I think Memphis is one of the best teams in the NBA and Kings were winning that entire game without any 3 point shots falling.
Players at the very least have to make 30 percent of their wide open 3s to compete against the best teams in the NBA. That's bring very fair as well
Perfect time to trade him!!!!
One game at a time guys, lets trend to be consistent vs above .500 team
Hell yeah!. I would trade Huerter and Trey for John Collins. Monte and Co. would be foolish not to. You want size and athleticism with the 3 point shot? He's exactly the missing piece for the Kings. If I have to bench Monk to make room for Collins to start at the 4, hell freaking yeah. You still have Monk, Keon, Doug, Crowder and Isaac that can make up the bench production.
Last week you all were ready to trade Heuter, and this team was looking like the dysfunctional Kings of the Cousin years. Dicking with Jimmer and all that. Kevin Heuter was a big part of the resurgence of the organization and the chemistry was working and guess what playoffs. It's the old saying if it's not broke don't fix it.
The new cba only allows you to add one vet minimum player in a trade
Kings played the "Jazz" come on? Beat a high level team then i'm happy
John collins would be amazing you got to also think he’s 26-27 he can start next year and be a future piece of the core when demar retires or contract is up I think aaron gordon type of impact with denver with john collins
I'm also sick, and I will forever be grateful to Dougie McBuckets for his 4th quarter performance giving me a 10 minute distraction from the copious amounts of crap coming out of my head.
What is demar starts shooting threes
I don't know how other than to say this but with K9 coming off the bench he isn't under as much weight as if he was a starter, it also makes the rotations a bit more balanced. Keegan was impressive all night he treated Lory like a cabbage patch doll, dude was in the friend zone more often than a geek in an 80s movie. The Kings don't need an all about me player like Collins, they need to get Lyles back and get Jones more time. Thanks for pushing through while wounded
When you play against bad defense that doesn't try n take away your first move the kings should be expected to play great. I still feel this team is fighting for a play in spot which is junk. Do fox right n trade him to a championship contender cause this ain't it. As a life long kings fan (since Spud Webb n checkers) I think the kings can trade their best player and get better like Richmond for Webber. I also think trading fox could worst case be the first Domino to building a war chest like the jazz and OKC. I think the jazz would be smart to trade Lauri for young assets to go full rebuild.
18 points in 6 mins off the bench smells like western conference finals lol
I actually prefer the long break. It seems like the offense has better ball movement with Derozan and the defense has improved with its rotation. Hopefully with more practice they can improve as a team.
I feel completely comfortable with Kevin initiating and handling the Rock in that second unit.
