    Best and worst NBA announcer teams (fan poll results)

    Mike Breen is seriously overrated IMO ( the “bang” thing is hard to listen to anymore). I’ve never liked Joel Meyers at all, either. I don’t mind Ian Eagle, he’s pretty good. I definitely agree with Fitzgerald being at or near the bottom of the list. I’ve always found him to be dreadful...

    Kings trade rumor SZN 2023-2024 edition!

    Sign me up. Even if the KINGS only got 50-60 games out of Isaac, he’d provide some things they really don’t have. Pace him slowly and make sure he’s go to go come April and May, and super optimistically in June too.

    Kings trade rumor SZN 2023-2024 edition!

    That at least is more of the right guy to be looking at from the Wizards roster, if anybody, versus what's been reported the past couple seasons.

    Kings trade rumor SZN 2023-2024 edition!

    Not the "one". Huerter, too, and even more so. But Keon remaining in the starting lineup next season very well could remedy that. Between the two, Huerter has been more of a detriment than HB, far as I can tell. But both are inconsistent and seemingly largely invisible when things matter most.

    ”No chance” is literally a drastic over-exaggeration. Because the KINGS clearly had chances in the last 2 matchups, even though both of them got away from them late. Hell, the 2nd game in NO the KINGS held a lead with 5:30 remaining. It was really only 2 games where the KINGS were a complete...

    De’Aaron “Austin Reaves Sr.” Fox

    You can’t reason with the unreasonable. Lol. You can bet that if the KINGS had gone 6-0 against NOP this season while also going 11-17 against the top 7 — the same folks dwelling on the Pelicans thing would be sweeping the KINGS 6-0 record under the carpet while focusing their attention (and...

    De’Aaron “Austin Reaves Sr.” Fox

    No, they don’t. One fluke season doesn’t create an emergency. The KINGS were 4-2 against NOP the previous 2 seasons. The Pels were largely the same team. Do you think the LAL are panicking after 0-4 against the KINGS and drastically turning over their roster because of it? Hell, they are 0-10...

    De’Aaron “Austin Reaves Sr.” Fox

    You’re not making sense here. This is a false statement. Only 3 teams in the West won less than 30 games this season. Which actually happens frequently. Most recently it happened in 20-21 and 20-22. The East had 4 teams finish with less than 30 in 20-21 and a staggering 7 teams in 2019-2020...

    KING IN ARABIC

    Except for when the KINGS were the ones succeeding as a top 3 seed, as they were last season. Correct me if I’m wrong, but Swipa didn’t get voted into last seasons all-star game and only got in via injury replacement. Minny was a bottom tier seed last season and when they are having a great...

    “RUN IT BACK!” / Monte needs to fix this.

    I see it the exact same way.

    “RUN IT BACK!” / Monte needs to fix this.

    And he's indecisive about it, when he finds himself slightly uncovered. He is pretty much always looking to facilitate, or otherwise hand the ball off to keep the offense moving. Opposing defenses are keenly aware of this. If I was Mike Brown, I'd be coaching Domas up the same way he does...

    KING IN ARABIC

    IDK, after watching MM’s recent media interview, his body language and overall demeanor didn’t give me the vibe that he’s coming back. One thing he said a couple times was “that’s my agents job”, which to me is a copout answer. Shifting responsibility/blame. No, Malik, your agents job is to...

    Kings beat Warriors again, slated to pick 13th in 2024 draft (barring lotto magic)

    Kobe Bryant was also selected 13th in the 1996 draft. Just sayin….

    KING IN ARABIC

    Yes, convincing your best players to stay is a good idea. Even if whatever stats suggest his fit in the lineup may not be great, he's still a superior talent and player to anyone else they have in the backcourt not named De'Aaron. If he'll indeed take a tad less to stick around here with...

    [Game] Kings @ Pelicans (Play-In Tournament) - 4/19 6:30PM PDT/9:30 PM EDT

    Well, there would certainly be a much better case for it than right now, IMO. And promoting from within (Jordy or DC, if they are still with the org) would definitely be the way to go, I believe, along with keeping as much of the staff in tact as possible. That is, IF they do decide to move on...

    [Game] Kings @ Pelicans (Play-In Tournament) - 4/19 6:30PM PDT/9:30 PM EDT

    Both things can be true at the same time. This team needs better coaching and they need a few better fits talent wise. But, again, firing Brown after 2 seasons and after producing 2 winning seasons not only is a bad look, it follows the instability path this franchise followed for 16...

    [Game] Kings @ Pelicans (Play-In Tournament) - 4/19 6:30PM PDT/9:30 PM EDT

    Yeah, I thought Mike Brown’s calling card was “supposed” to be defense. It sure didn’t look like it yesterday. I get that the KINGS don’t have the strongest individual or team defenders, but the scheme and lack of adjustments were still bad.

    [Game] Kings @ Pelicans (Play-In Tournament) - 4/19 6:30PM PDT/9:30 PM EDT

    He’s supposed to make it work — that’s your argument? And then you have the audacity to use the term “laughable”? What a joke. Explain to me and everyone how Monte is suppose to “make” Bradley Beal agree to a trade to send him here. Also explain to me how he’s supposed to “make” a free agent...

    [Game] Kings @ Pelicans (Play-In Tournament) - 4/19 6:30PM PDT/9:30 PM EDT

    No, it wasn't. Because it wasn't really a move. It was the result of other options not panning out. Like the chase for Bradley Beal, as others have pointed out. A GM can't just make all the player transactions they want because they want it. It takes free agent players and other teams to agree...

    [Game] Kings @ Pelicans (Play-In Tournament) - 4/19 6:30PM PDT/9:30 PM EDT

    I'm not sure why you didn't predict this BEFORE the season. Since you knew it already.... How about we let the guy develop and figure things out a bit before writing him off, huh? And perhaps get some consistent PT from his stubborn head coach.
