To quote Apollo Creed:"Do us all a favor and knock this bum out".
Verno is right about this: 95% of media protected Draymond today
as someone who didnt watch many kings games in this season because of history bias its just fun to watch
🧹🧹
Great back and forth. The Kings are definitely a great story. The NBA definitely needs new storylines. I just love it !!!
If Wiggins and GP2 were in shape/gelled enough to play their proper 3pt defense this would be a real series
Imagine where the kings would be if they traded for Ben Simmons
go kings
LIGHT THE BEAM!!!!
Great point on the lack of interior defense by the reason the Kings are considered such a bad defense team statistically, and honestly even though it's not the Warriors primary mode of operation they were getting whatever they wanted at the rim down the stretch whether it was curry or wiggins.
I think we should all review the media's takes on the Sabonis for Haliburton trade as we revel in the Kings success 😊
It's a little easier to build continuity when Domas plays through a broken thumb all season instead of opting for surgery. I think everyone has forgotten his hand is still hurting him.
If GSW loses in a sweep or near sweep – what is their game plan for next year?
LTB!
The person who thought of the Light The Beam idea needs a raise.
LET'S GO KINGS!!!! SAC-RA-MEN-TO!!!
LET'S GO KINGS!!!! SAC-RA-MEN-TO!!!
Has Kevin O’Connor deleted all the videos and content he had about criticizing D’aaron Fox’s game or value yet over the years?
Jonathan Kuminga will be driving to the rim in Game 3. Book it.
Odds favor the Kings, but it is not a certainty.
Nice to see national media guys who actually watched the kings this season
Warriors in 7
Kings win series 4-1, Bay Area Warriors are just too old and too slow. Draymond is an overpaid trash-no skills-cant shoot. It will be stupid to extend his contract.
Stomping on people is not allowed in MMA, let that sink in 😂
If DG doesnt get suspended, the NBA is rigged I swear
They lost two close home games. Haven’t we been through this before?series hasn’t started until a road team wins a game.
There was a Kevin Huerter block that was f'in nasty, that says it all!
So far the Warriors have lost 100% of the playoff series in which Draymond has been ejected for stomping on someone.
Why all the focus on the Warriors? Kings are clearly the better team.
draymond got suspended for game 3. not only was that play reckless from a health standpoint it was reckless for his team. now they're in a 2-0 hole missing a main cast member.
I will always root for the small market teams because it angers ESPN so much and I detest that network.
Finally someone who is being totally honest about this series 😂😂😂 ESPN take notes.
The kings have never swam in deep water. It ain't over.
I really like these new look Kings. Bottom 10 defense you say? Not yesterday. The Warriors came to play and the Kings had em their way. When you have fire in the belly you can't help but to STEP UP! Coach Mike Brown got the Kings ready to throw down. Can they win on the road on Draymond's home court? Can the Kings be King of the road? Can't wait to see all that the Kings can be. Is this the year that the Kings make NBA history? We'll just have to wait and see, for only time and the Kings can solve that mystery.
De'aaron Fox is the best 2 way guard in the NBA 🔐🔥
Yes.
hop off the kings ball hairs
vernon has gotten much much better as a commentator
Kings shoot terrible and the dubs allow them to stay in the game with insane amount of turnovers. Warriors need to clean it up
Great analysis about the rim protection. That's all the Kings need to look for this summer.
The hate poole get's
JJ Reddick had it right. The refs are controlling this series.
Sabonis is a VERY mobile help defender…
Never shouldve grabbed his foot
It won't happen, because the NBA does not want it to happen. The NBA offices are not stupid. They are gunning for Lakers/
Warriors in the next playoff round, and this matchup will net them high ratings and millions in profits…If the Warriors are eliminated, I will eat my hat…Warriors will advance, 100 percent because it's fixed for ratings, and the NBA is not about to let Curry get eliminated in the first round…
I think the kings- warriors goes to 5 in Sac's favor while grizzlies- lakers goes 7, which also works into Sac's favor.
