Lyles looks lost out there. Even when he's dapping teammates on timeouts, he doesnt look he wants to be there or is out of it. ive never had a groin injury but did they accidentally cut off his balls or something? lol He used to be a dawg
The worst part about our team is depth. We basically run a 7 man rotation our starting line up plays 36-40 mins a game and the expectation is for them to shoot 3s? they don't have their legs under them. that's why I think they're hesitating.
Exactly and playing high intensity defense on the other end while doing so. They have no legs and shots have been short. Otherwise they’re shooting too hard from over compensating it has to be the depth
Norm also baits for fouls weird you don't mention him, and it's ok if you simply don't like Harden but bait and floop are two different things, maybe if players didnt fall for the bait Harden woulnd't had shot that many FT and you talking so much bs on Harden you clearly don't watch enough Harden games because he be getting fouled a lot and refs aren't calling it, now if you want to talk about floops talk about Lebron, Luka and Embiid
The lack of depth is the perfect storm….Devin Carter being out, Mitchell being traded and Lyles playing bad all converging to make a lack of depth. Plus nobody from the last few drafts doing much. Colby Jones and others. I still think the team will be fine. It’s going to be a rough patch though.
Don't like Harden shooting free throws? Then don't foul him. He gets to the line because he's strong as a bull, explosive first step, great step back and of course the assist game. Don't hate the player, hate the game.
They need to have Murry go back to what he did the first season as a spot up shooter and not your top defender for the first quarter to get him going then once he’s got his game going then put him on the other teams top player for defense. We need him to get his 3’s back in rhythm then add in the rest. We want him to grow so fast but it’s showing that it’s a little too much to have him do everything with out a break at this point.
I keep wanting to come here after each game and comment, but, honestly, this season has been the first in a while I cant get a strong feel for the team. This feels like one of those seasons where you have to re-evaluate where the team is every twenty games or so. Not even ten games in yet. No clue what the issue is with 3's. but one can only hope this part of the game works it self out over time. I feel bad for Trey, I want him to play better, but I feel like he kinda started behind the "basketball eightball" here, coming in cold, from injury, getting back in shape on the court. I feel Trey is gonna work this out... Anyway, I will be way more interested in where this team is at the twenty game mark, we shall see :) It wasn't your wife Matt, this game loss was actually my fault guys, sorry. I 100% forgot to put on my lucky Kings Vintage Scarf, by the time I remembered, it was the second half, won't let that happen again!
I blame Brown. Something about the way Brown has gotten into these players' heads. At the NBA level, Wide open threes are about mental state. Contagion is not real, the problem is hearing your coaches voice in your head.
That's not a coach issue. It's a player to be ready mentally and physically...etc... that's not his job to baby then. They are paid to produce and execute.
Seems like the coaching staff isnt great. bad 3pt shooting, zero bench, no development, this Kings time strengthens one area but degrades in another area.
Dubs fan here, I’m in total agreement about Harden. The NBA needs to adjust how the foul rules are interpreted. This crap may be contributing to the decrease in viewership…
Officiating was ridiculous, controlled the game from the tip, both pace and play styles. Brown and staff have got to find a fix for this 3 point issue, especially since it is team wide. Time for coaches to be coaches and get this team out of this 3pt slump. Lastly, time to start mixing in those end of the bench players, mix in one of the Jones' here and there, hopefully Mike can find another Keon. When the bench sucks, and you have 4 DNPs time to sprinkle some minutes around and let opportunity shine.
Kings offense is under construction? Says Katie. I believe her. LOL! Kings excel at letting Fox and Malik touch the paint and get 3s. This is why Coach Mike, needs to play Fox Malik Keegan Trey and Sabonis lineup a lot!!! Demar is not a catch and shoot guy! When Demar touches the ball, the Kings offense stops, everyone watches. Remember the following series, Clippers hit a 3, Demar missies a 2, Clippers hit another 3. Kings only took 26 three pointers. Not good!
I just asked Google to do the math for me and it seems as if Sacramento shot just over 11% from the 3-point line.😮 Also James harden is also my least favorite player. The league had pretty much slowed down his foul baiting but it does pop up every once in a while. Scott Foster doesn't help.
Bad 3pt isnt main reason kings lost it. From the start team looked sloppy and lacked efford. At home. In game 8 of season. You have to have plan b and plan c before game. There were none. Lac shot 47% from deep. And still was kinda a close game. You have to find a way to win such ugly games. Derozan had a bad game and still played like 40 mins. Why not to give some of his minutes to monk? Why not to try doug when you cant hit a shot? Sabonis had 9/10 from 2. Why not to ask him shoot more? So many talks about that off rebounding and while you shoot 3/26 you have 6 off rebounds.. if you cant hit a sh.. then at least play hard.. this team doesnt look as serious and it looks dont even try to be such. I am starting to think this team (coach included) cant be fixed.
Last season there was a bad 3 point shooting team in the East that couldn’t hit a shot to save their lives. Now Sacramento is having this problem… Hmm 🤧…..
If sacramento will not going to change their lineup pretty sure they will not going to reached playoffs again. Just take a look at the teams in the west Rockets, memphis, dallas, gsw and minnesota all this teams improved significantly and I don’t think kings can beat any of this teams. Kings management put that on record thanks
Called it early on, not even a play-in team. Why, Offensive sets more slow paced. This team is best with no half court pace . Three pt shots from standing terrible but moving catch and shoot very good. So why abandon run and gun stop slow paced half court pace.
"Unwatchable"? Sacramento has been like that since last year, if you're a fan, just tune in to the last 5 minutes. If they are still in the game then, keep watching. Otherwise, tune in to a more entertaining game or show. "Unwatchable"? That means the Kangz of Sacramento are at it again. Like I said, "Hard Work Is A Habit". It is a tireless effort. It does not turn on and off. Then again, that habit is in the person's DNA. It is in his character to fight from start to finish, no matter the outcome. "Unwatchable"? That 3PT shooting, indeed. Like I said so many times, Sacramento is a jump-shooting team - "Let It Fly" remember? If that is the mandate from the coach, who can blame them? I'll let that thing fly, too, no worries.
As much as I love demar derozan. While I feel like it’s not his fault, but teams historically 3pt% goes significantly down whenever Derozan is acquired on the team
It actually does make sense that we're not good at threes. Our 3 top players are each known for not being good three point shooters over the totality of their careers. Lol. Fox had one good season out of 7. Sabonis has never been a volume 3-pt guy by any stretch. Derozan's lack of threes goes without saying. Monk is 35% for his career. Keegan had one year at 40%, then got a little more buff, then had one year at 35%. Huerter is pretty much our only guy who has a career long track record of being a high caliber three point shooter, but, news flash, he hasnt knocked them down consistently for any significant stretch of games since MARCH OF 2023
Scott Foster is crooked. Sometimes you can just tell by a person's face. Lmao
Donaghy was his bestie
This was generationally bad shooting. Its actually impressive
Lyles looks lost out there. Even when he's dapping teammates on timeouts, he doesnt look he wants to be there or is out of it. ive never had a groin injury but did they accidentally cut off his balls or something? lol He used to be a dawg
He getting old and the injuries can fuck with ur mental, especially with how deep Lyle’s is as a person
Overrated 1 good season that's it. This could be what we are in for this season
Clippers are lowkey impressive this season
They are def overachieving! I do think if the kings hit their 3s, they win this game.
@@raidernation8869 easily
@@raidernation8869 if they would have hit their avg (from last year 37%) they would had won by 20 points
@@raidernation8869but why weren’t they hitting their threes ? Could it possibly be the clippers defense stopping them from scoring those threes? 🤯
@@gabrielklushkan2438that’s what I was thinking, I believe clippers played really good defense on the perimeter…. A lot of shots were contested.
There no need to wait until the team is several games under .500, get Cam or Dorian now before it’s too late.
The worst part about our team is depth. We basically run a 7 man rotation our starting line up plays 36-40 mins a game and the expectation is for them to shoot 3s? they don't have their legs under them. that's why I think they're hesitating.

Clippers defense was the key to their massive win last night. 🤷🏾♂️💪🏾
They did play good defense last night
If at anytime before 5-7 minutes before the game was over..if the Kings actually hit several 3 point shots it would have been a competitive game
@@matthewyip8695yup, same can be said to the clippers not being careless with the ball 5 times in a row.

I wish we would stop saying "they'll eventually drop." It seems like a weird coping mechanism.
It is! Eventually Lyle’s will turn into prime AD
@DanielTaylor-tz1rf when you're in sac long enough you do what you gotta do
Probably the only game I’ll go to all year and it was the worst game I’ve ever seen the kings play😫

Please for the love of God start Keon Ellis. He is this teams best defender by a mile
Fouls too much tho, but thinking about it, probably won't matter if kings pace slows down more. So maybe you are right
Lmao he has zero offensive ability.
@@yoobollo420 bruh you really think this team needs more offense? Seriously?
The kings got great looks they didn’t knock them down they’ll fall eventually fall loved the fight tho despite shots not falling
They’re not even to falling been saying that since preseason we are what we are it’s not like we have knockdown shooters missing
Kings new identity: slow half court team; free throw team; mid range team.
Kings old identity: fast pace team; fast break team; 3pt team.
Year three, Brown has managed to eat away at the confidence the Kings had in 2022-23. Brown is the problem.
@@SKOOBZTERZ Interesting. Why does he want out?
Seems like the coaching staff isnt great. bad 3pt shooting, zero bench, no development, this Kings time strengthens one area but degrades in another area.

If I'm not mistaken, the playoff year were outliers for both Keegan and Kevin. Don't know why we keep expecting them to return to their peak selves.
All this was clear before season. And all they did added one shooter and keep him benched.
Heurter leads the team in 3pt % But there is more context to it
Keegan Murray needs to stop shooting threes
Bad team
