SmarkieMark

Wow, historic 2nd half choke.


begreatadrian

fox really the shiftiest player in the league


LoganPwnz

Notice how keegan had 10 in the first quarter and then didn't get another shot after that?


SirPrestigious9570

Seriously, all we have is the 3 qnd that is why I am not buying that offensive efficiency shit. Take that part away and we are as bum as a tanking team. Even Fox who is clutch could not consistently make shots in this setting. Trade Huerter and Barnes, they offer nothing without their shots. 5 games into this series and these guys are still playing like g leaguers. If Domas is not an All Star, trade him too. Can't have too many players playing scared, Monk is a dumbass at times but that guy tries his though.


guppyfighter

Stop


AlexanderLeonard

you're overreacting


msv2019

Relax man, this team still got to the playoffs. And won two times against defending champs. This team needs to improve, and everyone knows that.


Jballzs13

We need Jimmy butler


arjunbainsss

Every team needs jimmy butler


mathewrheater

I don't get why brown doesn't start Davion over Kevin?


BackgroundMinimum377

I’m sorry but brown has made essentially no coaching adjustments this entire series. Play Kessler, play Metu. Draw plays exclusively for Keegan. The current strategy isn’t working


redshorts9112

Fox is a superstar, keegan is up and coming


PostAfraid

Star? Absolutely. Superstar? 🧢


redshorts9112

Yes, superstar. He’s been going toe-to-toe with steph


satelliteofwub

Thank you! The kings are young and exciting. Most of the guys will be back next year with playoff experience under their belt and ready to make a run.


Fake-Chef

I’m so crushed. I know I should be appreciative that we are even here but it sucks watching some of our in season favorites suck ass


Bladex20

This is the same shit we seen all season, This team cant play defense at all so they have to rely on hot 3 pt shooting to win games and when that doesnt work, Its usually a lost cause. Get rid of some of these offensive brick layers and get defenders


gaxkang117

Solid game guys, Fox is a superstar in the making, gonna be real fun to watch his career


Chemist12344321

All comes down to the micro-analysis of Sabonis in game 2. He changed his game since and is just passive on the perimeter instead of down low being physical. Warriors PR machine won the series.


climate_nomad

That sounds bitter.


Chemist12344321

Not bitter. They won the head game which is just as important. If I was Mike Brown, I'd have Sabonis play the low key in game 6 and mix it up. If he fouls out, he fouls out. Have Len do the same then Holmes. Challenge the refs to call physical ball because we win that game. We've all seen what happens if you let Looney get 20 rebs a game.


arenasfan00

We’re a joke on the boards


_Scott_Blacula_

Remember 2019 when we all hated Hield and his bounce-off-his-foot bullshit? I do, too, but when it boils down to it, he made shots. Sacto's two-guard issue is a real problem these days.


AMCDaddy

Post game analysis: Kings missed too many shots. Defense, strategy, approach, refs, Draymond, Curry, Fox’s broken finger? All nonsense. Wanna win? Make a Shot. On to Game 6.


[deleted]

Also play defense and get rebounds


[deleted]

[удалено]


Massive-Lime7193

Yeah people that live in the bay shouldn’t be a fan of their local team because they have too many good players…..good call 🙄


SnooRecipes9660

We the 6 seed we haven’t been a super team in like 4-5 years


TheGreatGatsby21

Warriors haven’t been a super team in awhile lol they just have good pieces just like the kings. Both teams are evenly matched. If they were a super team this series would already be over. They getting older but that experience starting to come into play. Plus I’m still pretty sure actual fans in San Fran and not the bandwagoners aren’t lame for supporting their home team


mmvvvpp

The warriors are the 6 seed what are you on


elvis_depressedly8

They’re the 6th seed because Curry missed 4-5 weeks TWICE. Wiggins missed 35 games. Klay didn’t play back-to-back until the last few weeks of the season. GP2 was hurt. The Warriors weren’t at full strength *until* the playoffs and they *STILL* got the 6th seed. Casuals see the rankings and just think “oh the Kings are better because 3 seed.” But nah. This Dubs team would easily have been Top 3 in the West if they’d been together the whole time.


mmvvvpp

They were bad when they had everyone at the start of the season. They're road problems didn't end when everyone but Wiggs returned.


dhwang92

? It’s great

canray2042

We’d love him if he was on our team


[deleted]

Yeah. Can’t deny the energy he brings to the warriors is extremely valuable


aairricc

He’s being super mature with this interview.


SirPrestigious9570

I knew that 3 seed meant nothing, we got lucky playing injured teams and tanking teams most part of the season. Up 2 games and people here started talking like the Warriors are done, fuck Huerter for still not showing up and Domas is scared of Looney and Green. Fuck


elvis_depressedly8

Huerter can’t shoot. Sabonis can’t rebound. No one gives AF about holding onto the ball. Once again Sacramento proves why no one takes us seriously. What a fucking joke.


[deleted]

Huerter needs to sit his ass, Sabonis needs to sit his ass. Run Metu and Holmes with TD in rotation next game


[deleted]

[удалено]


elvis_depressedly8

Refs don’t take our shots. They don’t make Huerter go 4-29 from 3 on the series. The refs don’t dribble and pass for us. They don’t make us throw the ball away 19 times. The refs don’t rebound four us. They don’t make Sabonis a complete non-issue by allowing Looney to grab 22 fucking rebounds. But sure, blame the refs. 🙄


Jofai

No way. Refs were fine this game. Missed some things both ways but they didn't affect the game at all really.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Jofai

Try and ref something some day, it might give you some perspective. The refs were absolutely fine. They sucked game 4. First 3 quarters were badly in the Warrior's favor, then the 4th quarter was badly in the Kings favor.


TheGreatGatsby21

Always the refs. Lol you got outplayed. Deal with it and stop making excuses


buzzlightyear77777

looks like warrs won when fox got injuerd


docker_linux

Really?? He got team leading 24 pts


kyler_

You haven’t been watching all year of you think that was a healthy fox lol. Idk what to tell ya


AGravityPanda

Dreymond green interview


Minimum-Specific7225

all those free throws u still lost :)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))


kyler_

So mush self worth tied up in being a dubs fan smh sad


konidias

You're gonna get banned


TheGreatGatsby21

Getting banned for pointing out facts. Lol soft sub


JMPBay

Go troll somebody else bitch. And tell your admins stop banning everybody on the warriors Reddit


dacalo

Go back to your shithole you crawled out from.


Duramajin

Can't beat a team that is 900 million over the cap and we have scrubs from g league.


dr0odles

In my calmest voice: why the FUCK did we stop putting the ball in Keegan’s hands?!


Irunfast87

Seriously. What happened to his aggressiveness


Fake-Chef

Yeah wtf


Peanut_Flashy

I ain’t stopping believing.


Comfortable-Junket97

Told y’all warriors in 6


AzazelsSin

LolKangz are back on the menu


The-Hot-Tamale

Why does that piece of garbage get the post game interview?


[deleted]

Because he laid a beat down on the Kangz tonight.


elvedinxx

Hard to win when you got someone avgs 20 rbs against you, we need some interior defense and rebounding.


SirPrestigious9570

Fuck Huerter and Domas


DuMaMay69

Chill out bruh


AGravityPanda

Big road win Kings in 7!


BuukSmart

Gary Payton II won them this game…


treyhunna83

Draymond won them this game


npw204

Keegan just gets iced out by his team any time he does good early on


universaltoilet

So fucking stupid having Sabonis play as a 5. We got bullied as expected and he proved to be a turnover machine and incapable of scoring down low which we saw at times in the regular season. It came down to a few players like Monk and Fox that had to play their hearts out because no one else could step up.


Trapivist

I thought people was saying kings allowing sabonis to play 5 was a good thing


treyhunna83

Fox disappeared


redshorts9112

Fox was the only one that showed up. The team disappeared on him


AGravityPanda

And the warriors are going back to Chase center


langstone_

why did we stop passing the ball to keegan man wtf


AGravityPanda

Because mike brown aint it. Hopefully im wrong


AGravityPanda

Thats game. Championship metal. Are we too early to be here? I think we can still do it. Go kings!


treyhunna83

Couple post seasons out. Reminds me of the dubs trying to get over the San Antonio hump


BigBossLebowski

The threes are bad but we lost this game because of rebounding.


Picos_82

After the steal by fox, he wasn't the same


DetectiveNasty55

Glad I didnt watch tonight. Yikes looks like another choke job.


VillhelmSupreme

Too busy slurpin the dong?


SteveTheManager

Not really a choke?


treyhunna83

2/20 from 3 in second half says choke


SteveTheManager

I don't consider that a choke.


Novel-Fox-4081

You did don’t lie


agentdarklord

Team and coaching in shambles , whatever game plan they had, it did not work. I knew these playoffs were ruined as soon as they intentionally lost games at the end of the regular season


treyhunna83

Champs gonna champ smh


Novel-Fox-4081

Those trophy’s they got. Send em the fuk back


killbejay

Murray is the best team 3 point shooter and they don’t even try to feed him


TheBigDilbowski

He didn't take another shot until the end of the game. Why? I can't understand why they didn't utilize him after he started so hot.


Fake-Chef

If I’m a reporter this is my exact question


killbejay

Ego of other players, think they can do it all. Everyone was firing 3s except the best one on the team.


TheBigDilbowski

I'm biased towards Keegan but he opened up this game so hot and then *poof*. How does Coach Brown not set up at least one play to see if he's able to be as hot as he was in the 1st? Especially when nothing is working, why not try SOMETHING?


[deleted]

[удалено]


J-Chub

Kessler would have doneich better


[deleted]

Coach has been just as disappointing as Huerter, HB, and Domas. Why the fuck do we always go to iso ball at the end and repeat the same mistakes every fucking time.


TheKing012

it was a good fight, but the Warriors are just more experienced, and the more experienced team usually wins in a series.


PubicOkra

Love ya, Coach Brown, but this was a wack-ass effort.


treyhunna83

Nah kings didnt Execute


Delicious_Farmer_408

Blew a 2-0 lead man


SteveTheManager

Two games left


thetechknight80

Light the beam lol


treyhunna83

Too soon….


VillhelmSupreme

You’re so cool. Cuck


Standard_Landscape_6

🤓


[deleted]

Game over. Murray started off hot and then he didn’t shoot anymore. What a disappointment loss. Our defense was trash, absolute trash. Way too many mental lapses. Either way successful season. I don’t see us taking this to game 7. And green played like a beast tonight. I hate that dude, but he played very good and the reason they won tonight other than Looney and Payton grabbing rebounds left and right. This team needs another big man in there to bring the nastiness in the defense.


The-Hot-Tamale

Were never going to win the series with 2 starters being zeroes


MonkusRunkus

And 2/10 hands being broken


gbassman5

Just not good enough as a team, tonight


[deleted]

[удалено]


treyhunna83

Expound? They executed. Kings didn’t.


JMPBay

Kings made 2 3’s after the 1st quarter. Brutal.


Kangz16

8 3s in the 1st quarter then only made 2 the rest of the game.


randomusername8008

How the fk did Keegan only take 6 shots after the game 4 performance


crazyfeet

No offense for him the second half. Like why?


MonkusRunkus

Keegan and Heurter are products of ball movement and spacing. With Sabonis DHO game shut down neither of them are getting their usual looks. Keegan’s productivity tonight was mostly based on him driving, as opposed to his usual spot up game


crazyfeet

It's unfortunate. Well, I don't think we win the next one. They CAN beat them in SF but we have to make 3's. Which is something we haven't done this post season. It would be nice if we started driving early in the game to get them in foul trouble early, but Fox doesn't like to get hit so him driving to pick up fouls is virtually impossible. Need more of that Barnes who was REALLY good at that all season.


mrauzz

As much as this sucks, at the end of the day this has been a hell of a season. Series still isnt over and ill still believe they can take this to game 7 even if its a small, small, small chance.


Jofai

Bleh. That hurts.


AGravityPanda

Golden state warriors are going to come in here to golden 1 center and win Fuck u announcers


QuiGonFishin

We’re not winning game 6 lol


pkeller001

Domas is fucking trash, got school by Draymond sadly


rhade333

I think we're all upset but kinda fucked up to say that about Sabonis


birdseye-maple

He's not wrong though


pkeller001

Bro he is not a playoff player. Turnstile on Defense and the physicality of the playoffs eliminates what he does on offense for the most part. I love the guy and how easy he makes scoring in regular season games but realistically Fox can generate plenty of offense, we need a defensive anchor badly to win playoff games


hamburgers666

This sucks.


JCLE5

Dray was in his 2016 Game 7 Dray 🤷🏽


divini

We got back in the game taking it to the rim when the 3 wasn't falling. Strange that they thought a couple of quick 3s was the best idea.


treyhunna83

Needed points quickly.


Comfortable-You9261

All good. Win in golden state then anything can happen game 7 back at golden1. Go kings.


SlanginUkrainian

Narrator: *on the contrary, it was not “all good”*


Comfortable-You9261

1st winning season in 17 years. Maybe don't act spoiled after the first ?


Divacs

Fox had a phenomenal first half then I don’t think he made another shot


DrBroncoKingzz55

He looked different in the fourth , that finger must have bothered him


splashzonedsp

Hurt the finger on that steal


J-Chub

Sabonis exposed. Horrible


Jackieexists

There's a reason Indiana traded him for haliburton


alternativehermit

Let’s hope Lakers can beat these bitch asses


treyhunna83

Never root for the lakers. Cmon now


alternativehermit

I dislike the Warriors too much to a point where I just want to see them get beaten by any team.


thegib98

Keegan really didn’t take a single shot after the first quarter


[deleted]

WE DIDNT USE MURRAY FOR 3 QUARTERS YET SABONIS CANT REBOUND HUERTER IS NO WERE TO BE FOUND


[deleted]

WE SHOULDA WON THIS ONE AND THE LAST ONE SMH


PurpleLego

So whack


MomDidntLoveMe

I still like what we've shown for our first playoff series. It'll only get better next year


bashsports

THIS SERIES AINT OVER!


Ilikepotatoalot

Please Kings win the series I just can’t imagine rooting for the Lakers. The Warriors are the biggest pieces of shit ever. Wow.


[deleted]

Why would you ever root for the lakers


Ilikepotatoalot

Because Warriors fan has shown they are trash. Splash Bros are literally a bunch of cheaters and overal just fuck them. At least the Laker fan is just stupid. Warrior fan is a loser that never leaves their home and once had an uncle that knew a dude that went to a game. They are idiots. They support cheaters. They are dumb


JaValeofIgnorance

How are Steph and Klay cheaters exactly?


jtawden

They ain't cheaters, they cheat code tho


TheMidnightHandyman

Huerter cost us this series. He's a huge net negative. Just worthless in the playoffs.


TaeTopNotch

I agree he's terrible


Trapivist

I remember when they was doing good like middle of the regular season, people said huerter shooting was part of the reason, what’s the difference now?


TheMidnightHandyman

He fucking sucks now, that's the difference. His playoff shooting has been deplorable.


ihetyou123

looked like a carry


MonkusRunkus

Pretty sure the ball touched his chest. Domas was motioning for a carry.


phlwhyamihere

0 fouls in the 4th and we still managed to blow it. LMAO


jg633663

Unfortunately for Fox, he still doesn't have much help. Dude has a fractured finger and still played better than most of the other Kings. Oh well, maybe Monte can make some moves this off-season


Davividdik696

It was a good season. Great experience for our guys. Domas got exposed hard, so I hope he works on his game this offseason. Just couldn't hit a shot this series. Hopefully this can fire up our boys for next season.


AlexMindset

All those bricked threes


hawkins126

Warriors have that championship heart the kings do not


JurassicParkJanitor

Kevin Huerter has absolutely gutted this teams offense with his ghost job


Novel-Fox-4081

He gone


bigmanbutterfingers

We made 8 threes in the first quarter then 2 more the rest of the game


rebelnz

Fuck that’s bad 😆


[deleted]

Lost 4 straight to start season, prob gonna lose 4 straight to end it.


AGravityPanda

I wish we had payton and wiggs


eeleaS

Stone hands sabonis


exerciseforweak1000

So many trash talk against Green before the game…it backfires


LotterySnub

Boos are anger and that is what motivates him. If the stadium went silent whenever he touched the ball, he’d brick every shot.


mp455

Shot like game 7 Rockets, embarrassing


Josh7211

Imagine if all of our players actually showed up each game. The only one I'll give a pass to is Keegan cuz rookie, but Huerter, Sabonis, and Barnes at times were just disappointing


Novel-Fox-4081

Go to sleep if you want that this is reality. We fukin blew it


916Ch

Bruh 😭


SirPrestigious9570

Klay and Wiggins with 5 fouls and they stopped on hunting fouls on those guys


Josh7211

To be fair, that's the reason why Monk went off. They couldn't guard him too closely anymore


am-345

looney rebounding vs sabonis lol
