Looking forward to the season as always got baseball & football soon here to pass the time til NBA returns if Sabonis develops that 3 point shot we will be very good 👍
The only way to temper my impatience is to dig deep into Matt George's video catalog of the "torture" he felt from last year's Kings team.
Can't wait feels different 🗣️Let's GO KINGS 👑 SACRAMENTO Proud 💪🏽 KINGAN Murray 👑
Sabonis shooting 3’s better would be nice but If Fox ever becomes a 38% 3 point shooter it changes the trajectory of this team dramatically. That’s been the case for like 5 years though. I hope he’s working on his 3’s this summer
Hold on I was thinking making Davis a starter will make our bench a strong unit
Topic: what exactly does daaron and sabonis do as a DUO this year that is actually legit NBA impact worthy?
As individuals you make good points,
as a duo its still unknown.
Keep it up Matty Ice
38% 💀 is it April already?
My desire for fox this year is to have more 30 point games then under 20
I think Davion is a better player than Monk or Huerter and he deserves to start. Ya I said it!
I'm calling 45-47 wins this year. Keegan as the ROY w 18-22 ppg 7rpg and 38-42% from 3 avgs and Fox as the MIP with his first all star berth along w 24-27 ppg and 8 apg.
Love the videos man, but I strongly suggest shortening your intro. There’s no need for it to be this long
Sabonis is way better player than fox
1. I would love to see you take a look at some of your old videos pre trade deadline last season and roast some of your worst takes. Have a fun episode.
2. Maybe some interviews with the Stockton Kings players and coaches as well as the Sacramento Kings? Even past players?
Maybe do an interview with some of the former Kings coaches and get their thoughts on what the Kings have done this off-season.
Maybe try to score an interview with Steve Kerr and get his thoughts on Mike Brown?
As for storylines going into the season….I think you have it covered.
Sabonis…can he be a 35% 3 point shooter?
Will Monk and Huerter be good enough to help open up Fox, Sabonis, Barnes and Murray for their shots?
Will the starting 5 be as good as they can be and average 80 ppg? (Making it much more likely that the Kings win more games).
Will Fox be more engaged on Defense under Mike Brown and with Monk on the roster?
If we get yes as the answer….40-45 wins is very possible and so is ending the playoff drought.
If the answer is no on these questions….it will be a really long season and 30 wins might be the best to hope for and hopefully the Kings get some good draft picks trading Fox and Sabonis next summer and let Barnes walk.
We can see Domantas Sabonis' 3-point shot in September. When Sabonis plays with the national team at the Fiba EuroBasket. Lithuania plays against Slovenia with superstar Luka Doncic.
Fox is a loser…Domas is an ALL STAR
Lesss gooo
I feel like Heurter makes 60 M, and like in football, he’s the starter. I think it should be fox, monk, Heurter, Barnes, and sabonis. Bench unit can be Mitchell, TD, Lyles, Murray, and Holmes
Yeah, 34-35% from 3 for Domas would be reasonable and impactful. Good balance of expectation and effectiveness. Cause we got enough shooters that shoot better. Also, with Keegan and HB in the corners, if one of them can go for the rebound and the rest get back on defense, we got a chance to get the ball back if Sabonis misses. So far, looks like Keegan might be the better putback player.
Yo, those training camp vids had us way too pumped lol. And remember all that talk about how hard they were going at each other? And how the coaches weren’t calling fouls? lol Luke Walton was hilarious. We were all duped lmao Good times in basketball hell.
Do we see a Fox/Malik/Huerter/Barnes/Sabonis lineup to start the season?
if there was one player not on a super max contract to help only on defense for the Sacramento Kings, who would you want?
If there's a night and Fox doesn't have his shot . . . He's got capable teammates now. Start looking for other guys. I don't think Fox has to be the guy who never misses a shot or never turns the ball over. If his shot is falling : Shoot it. If not. Look for all the other guys.
Malik Monk is a scoring machine if give
n minutes. He is without question a better value than Heurter. One of these two will be on another team before the season ends.
With so many 3pt shooters on the team, we could make a trade for Ben Simmons, and his poor outside shooting would not hurt as much 😂
Saw Fox in the gym 4 years ago working out. I would go to the Kings game and see him running down the floor after he made a basket. Last season he added 20 lbs more muscle and I could actually see him put the ball in the basket. When I go to the Kings games this season I will hopefully see Fox behind the 3-point line hitting three pointers consistently. It has been a pleasure watching his game develop and I am looking forward to this season. I would agree that this is the best the Kings have looked since 2006. Hopefully some of the guys will fall in love with Sacramento like some of the greats of the past have and call Sacramento home.
I’m sorry but Fox should avg 21 & 11 this season anything less than that would be an epic failure with this current squad
