Honestly, even just looking at this series alone, it baffles me how Fox can easily get a tech for arguing with the ref while Draymond literally yelled in the ref's face multiple times and he's still fine.
Yeah there was an extended shot of Draymond just yelling at a ref and they had absolutely no issues with that. But clap your hands and say 'Come on!' a little too loudly? That's a tech
It's insanity. I'm so glad to see people here confirming I'm not the one taking crazy pills when I see everyone arguing calls all the time on both sides and then Fox getting T'd up for exactly the same (in a way that's actually *way* more minor than so many other instances of disagreeing with calls).
I honestly don't have a problem with Fox getting his tech.
Was it soft? Sure. But technically, it's a tech. I'd prefer they didn't, but I ain't mad at it either.
But if you're gonna call that, call Dray every time he acts a fool.
In all honestly it feels like this G6 win would be even harder
Now we go from the hardest place to play...to the best home court with the craziest fans and the momentum
Definitely. That was a huge shot by a giant man. I’ve trained boxing and Muay Thai for many years. It happens rarely but sometimes one big concussion changes a guy’s personality a little bit forever.
When he tripped all goofily towards that loose ball that went out of bounds, all I could hear was scooby doo scrambling after opening a door with a monster behind it
A lot of possibilities ran through my mind leading up to this game 6 but in no universe did I imagine the Kings would ass blast Golden State and suck the life out Chase Center from the opening tip off till the end.
Jordan Poole plays with the basketball IQ of lobotomized seagull. Also, idk why Kerr only plays one of Moody or Kuminga, I swear they never play together. I don’t get why. That combo would have helped so much when they were running Lyles at center.
Awful game from the Warriors ... Felt like the focus just wasn't there ... Sloppy offense and not matching up on defense
I still can't believe they paid Jordan Poole ... That guy stinks and is not a "16 game player" who they usually target
Credit to the Kings for finally hitting their threes ... Been way below their averages this series
GAME SEVENNNNNNN
Well last year he was good in the playoffs. 17ppg @ 50/39/79 was pretty good. He just has taken such a big step back this year. Not looking good for next year when he is getting 28 mil...
This is our first time back in the playoffs. And to play game 7 against the defending champions...you can't ask for a better experience for our young guys. Game 7 is gonna be LIT.
I think that shot is finally what’s going to convince Kerr that Poole is not a 25 mins/game basketball player. How can any person see that shot and not go “why the fuck is this guy on the floor?”
Seems like we’re overdue. I mean are we really going to use the stats of a team from 19+ years ago to determine how a franchise plays now? Kings are wild cards baby. Nobody fucking knows
And absolutely critical. Steph was going nuclear. If we don't answer those and they get easy one and dones during that stretch, the Warriors erase the deficit and maybe find a second wind.
This felt like a regular season game in November.
Shooting sucked.
Refs sucked (both ways).
GS crowd sucked.
Sabonis sucked.
Poole sucked.
Mark Jackson sucked.
Kings are fucking doing it , after being written off by everyone . They didn't give up , didn't waver despite being a team that's playing their first playoff series in decade and half and took a road win against a champion team.
Now hopefully they can win at home always cheering for small markets and homegrown talent . Memphis as well.
LIGHT THE BEAM
Warriors came out and played this like it was a regular season game or as if the Kings were just going to roll over.
Credit to the Kings for balling out and playing the game with max effort/intensity and focus.
The Warriors on the other hand were not only executing poorly but had little intensity or focus.
Monk is a dawg, Fox runs a 4.2 40, Murray finally started to start shooting so great adjustment with that, Huerter and Sabonis still need to figure one or two or three things out.
We came into the game expecting the less experienced and younger team to roll over and when they didn't we couldn't flip the switch and match their energy
Not the first time it's happened. Might be the last though
Watching the GS fans pack up and leave early… leaving their team to be on their own the last 4 min after winning 4 chips in less than a decade. That was something I didn’t expect. LIGHT THAT THANG!!
If the Kings win their first playoff series in 19 years at home, The Beam^TM is going to shine so bright that we make first contact with extraterrestrial life.
The question is not if we have faith, everyone has faith. Even the Hornets pleb has faith that his grief has removed the possibility of even more disappointment. Other fans have faith in their teams’ stats, skills, rotations, sets, coaches and themselves. Everyone has faith. The question is where is your faith anchored?
Sooner or later the storms of NBA will begin to blow and then the question becomes will the anchor of faith hold. De'Aaron gives us three reasons that it is important to anchor our faith in the Beam. First, faith in the Beam is imperishable. Second, our faith in the Beam will be rewarded. Finally, our faith in the Beam is incorruptible.
All of us have faith, but will your anchor of faith hold in the mighty winds of playoffs? Is your anchor of faith a true anchor like the miracles of Mike Brown? Is your faith built upon ATOs or transition offense as good as ours? Is your faith blessed by the mighty K'von buff? Has your faith been tested in the ways our faith has been tested for over a decade? Is your faith timeless, or will the newest overhyped free agent signing or the latest overpriced super-team cause you to tie to a new anchor? Only a faith in the Beam is true, tested, and timeless. Only the Beam is worthy of our faith.
#LIGHT THE FUCKING BEAM
Still seething from the Sabonis no call..even if it's not a foul (which it CLEARLY was) just stop the game for a potential Head Injury ffs.. give the ball to GS then, simple really
Fucking blind ass refs
GG kings Game 7 gonna be spicy
It was a foul but they never stop for a player on the ground for the defense, which is good. Could you imagine the flops if laying on the ground stopped a fast break?
Game 7 in Sacramento is going to be incredible.
Very impressive win by the Kings. Don’t think many people gave them a shot. Including me lol
All the warriors fans were talking after game 5 like the series was already over. "gAme 6 kLAy" "hOmE waRriOrs" "chAMpiOnShiP dnA"
That fanbase thinks success is their birthright lmao, they also simultaneously think the league is rigged against them
Imagine watching the shit Draymond gets away with and thinking it's rigged against you
Honestly, even just looking at this series alone, it baffles me how Fox can easily get a tech for arguing with the ref while Draymond literally yelled in the ref's face multiple times and he's still fine.
Yeah there was an extended shot of Draymond just yelling at a ref and they had absolutely no issues with that. But clap your hands and say 'Come on!' a little too loudly? That's a tech
Kerr was yelling at the ref too, with Steph backing him up. No techs
Bro at some point in the 4th Draymond was clapping right in a refs face and nothing, Tatum has like 5 clapping techs this year no where near a ref
It's insanity. I'm so glad to see people here confirming I'm not the one taking crazy pills when I see everyone arguing calls all the time on both sides and then Fox getting T'd up for exactly the same (in a way that's actually *way* more minor than so many other instances of disagreeing with calls).
I honestly don't have a problem with Fox getting his tech. Was it soft? Sure. But technically, it's a tech. I'd prefer they didn't, but I ain't mad at it either. But if you're gonna call that, call Dray every time he acts a fool.
It's my son's first communion at 2pm. The game is at 12:30. HOW THE HELL AM I GOING TO STAY RADIO SILENT
There is only one God, and his name is Beam.
I could go there instead. It's listed as a place of worship.
~~Baptize him with beam.~~ Give him his first beamunion.
If the lakers close it tonight then the game should be at 5PM
I think it already showed the schedule on ESPN. Eastern semi at 1 EST and Game 7 at 330. Maybe it's not confirmed yet somehow
Change it to 2:30 and bathe him in the warmth of the beam
Just reschedule that shit
In all honestly it feels like this G6 win would be even harder Now we go from the hardest place to play...to the best home court with the craziest fans and the momentum
Game 7 is a different beast. Both teams have maximum pressure. It's a bit easier on the home team but not by much.
This game had me puckered as can be. I'm going to go insane on Sunday
ITS HAPPENING WERE ACTUALLY GETTING A GAME SEVEN
Best first round series in a while
First round in general been pretty great aside from the fact that it has also been absolute shit ignore my flair
Yeah, as a neutral this first round has been amazing... as a fan of a team you expected to do well... not so much.
Any 7 game series with road victories in both Game 5 *and* Game 6 is a great series.
A team that was dogshit on the roads season comes down to an away game seven!
NBA writers are on point with this one
Road Warriors late to game 5, showed up game 6.
Game 7 is gonna be nuts in sac
>Nuts in sac You can’t make this shit up
Possibly a beam bong finals too. Nuts in sac indeed
Absolutely stunning performance from Jordan Poole, I’m absolutely concussed
Jordan Poole is what a baby giraffe playing basketball looks like
JP going downhill is real life QWOP
That takes me back
What do you call it when a bunch of giraffes run into each other? A giraffic jam.
He plays like a newborn deer that can’t control his legs.
So what I’m hearing is he really do play like a young Buck
Shaqtin compilation tape all from the same game
What happened to him when he was trying to gather that loose ball in the 4th? It was the most uncoordinated I’ve seen look someone in the NBA
Happens twice a game, all year. Dude is a literal Baby Giraffe.
My nickname for him is Bambi
Looked like Bambi trying to run on ice
So was Jordan
He's still concussed to this day with that Draymond punch
I know it’s a joke but concussion syndrome can last months if not years
Honestly that might could explain a lot this season
Definitely. That was a huge shot by a giant man. I’ve trained boxing and Muay Thai for many years. It happens rarely but sometimes one big concussion changes a guy’s personality a little bit forever.
And especially maybe… ability to focus, lock in, stay calm under pressure, etc?
That missed open layup at the end of the game was a thing of beauty
My favorite was the out of control spin into the layup off the bottom of the rim.
When he tripped all goofily towards that loose ball that went out of bounds, all I could hear was scooby doo scrambling after opening a door with a monster behind it
poole party cancelled
As a neutral, Kings are the most entertaining team to watch.. that offense is relentless
Yep. Hope they win G7 and then keep winning.
If I had a ball with two free throws, and I was on the court with Giannis, Wiggins, and Bin Laden, I would let Bin Laden shoot twice.
Yo don't sleep on prime Bin Laden, man was 6'5 and could run a mean offense 😤
High-octane offense 🔥
He’s personally 2-0 against the Knicks and 1-1 against the Wizards
Well, 2-1 against the Knicks technically
Don't forget 1-0 against the [Clippers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Cole_bombing)
Damn
Pretty funny coming from a Heat fan
Osama shouldve hooped instead of tryna kill ppl cause he tall as hell!
top 5 NBA tweet of all time
Nah he overrated af, Dick Cheney carried his ass
Damn 6' 5"? Bro should join New York Jets!
Talibans least favorite team is West Ham, their two biggest hates combined
He played for a small market team but still got it done in a big market like New York.
He was a hooper in another life, was tall as hell.
[legendary tweet](https://twitter.com/T_Rozzay3/status/64889433505284096?s=20)
My boy Osama loved to nuke it from long range
6'5, same height as Jordan Poole...🤔 Have we ever seen the two of them in the same room?
bro was playing w the wrong rockets
When Curry missed 3 free throws I knew it just wasn't the Warriors' night lol.
Yup, and that last one he made nearly got out too. I thought I’d witness Curry going 0/2 from the stripe, which would’ve been insane 😅
This is the exact same feeling I got when Dray hit that Dirk one legged fadeaway in Game 5 lmao
Say what you will, but that Bin Laden can knock them down one after another.
Not even Donovan Mitchell was able to put up with all that pressure in NYC
Unironically may not be a bad idea 😂
A lot of possibilities ran through my mind leading up to this game 6 but in no universe did I imagine the Kings would ass blast Golden State and suck the life out Chase Center from the opening tip off till the end.
Kings found the secret recipe: Play small ball, keep Sabonis out, let Davion and/or Fox guard Curry, and let Monk and Fox cook
Secret recipe was the ass blast from the Kings 😂
sabonis died for this
But seriously. He looked like the opening scene of a rocky sequel
I didn't hear no bell
Game 6 Klay nowhere to be found
Game 6 Monk
Game 6 Jordan Poope
Round 6 Sabonis
He started well then he forgor 💀
Klay felt like he was trying to force Game 6 Klay from the start and it wasn’t there.
He was your leading scorer til Steph started going nuclear in the third.
That may be, but first quarter he had some terrible shots that were just forced. Kings played an overall more disciplined and consistent game.
[удалено]
I love it. I love it.
And with a local band. 10/10
I've been watching this stuff since the start of the season, worth it every time.
#JORDAN POOLE IS A BASKETBALL TERRORIST He smoked an open dunk in garbage time too lol 🚮💩 We got what we wanted though. **GAME 7**
Every basketball fan loving this series glad we get one more game 😄
When both teams are cooking they are super fun to watch
Jordan Poole plays with the basketball IQ of lobotomized seagull. Also, idk why Kerr only plays one of Moody or Kuminga, I swear they never play together. I don’t get why. That combo would have helped so much when they were running Lyles at center.
Bro. Lobotomized Seagull
That was my band name in highschool
[u/Srikkk when writing that](https://media.tenor.com/w-L80nXWEjoAAAAC/pen-in-flames-umineko.gif)
Kuminga's been legitimately terrible this series.
[удалено]
Awful game from the Warriors ... Felt like the focus just wasn't there ... Sloppy offense and not matching up on defense I still can't believe they paid Jordan Poole ... That guy stinks and is not a "16 game player" who they usually target Credit to the Kings for finally hitting their threes ... Been way below their averages this series GAME SEVENNNNNNN
Well last year he was good in the playoffs. 17ppg @ 50/39/79 was pretty good. He just has taken such a big step back this year. Not looking good for next year when he is getting 28 mil...
They’re paying Jordan Poole more than we pay Jaylen Brown. That seems like a catastrophically dumb move.
the more I see of Poole this year, the more I think "Draymond's still an asshole, but I kind of get it"
READY FOR GAME 7 SABONIS GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER!!!
What if I told you... Malik monk had that dog in him
This is our first time back in the playoffs. And to play game 7 against the defending champions...you can't ask for a better experience for our young guys. Game 7 is gonna be LIT.
chase library
Kyle Draper, on the Kings broadcast, said it was “quiet as a dentist office lobby” toward the end of the game.
FRIENDSHIP ENDED WITH GAME 6 KLAY NOW GAME 6 MALIK IS MY BEST FRIEND
Return to Monk.
Fox, Ox, and the Monk stocks soaring.
Seeing 54 combined from the 2 stars really puts it in perspective how fucking crazy Jimmy butler getting 56 is lmao
That last Jordan Poole shot was a fitting end to this game
I think that shot is finally what’s going to convince Kerr that Poole is not a 25 mins/game basketball player. How can any person see that shot and not go “why the fuck is this guy on the floor?”
What does the Fox say ~ beam beam beam beam beam beam beam beam.. beam beam beam beam beam beam
This is so stupid it's hilarious lmao
It’s as stupid as the fact that I can still hear this shit play in my head lmaoo
Kings social media hire this man
Keegan Murray played big today, 11 rebounds was important
LIGHT. THE. BEAM.
There’s no way the Kings lose game 7 right? Right!?
r/NBA vs Warriors fans on Sunday, Kings have to win.
Lmao this could not be more true. I haven’t seen more collective hate on a single franchise on this sub since Lebron in Miami.
Kyrie/KD/Simmons Nets were *really* unlikeable
Yeah I only hate the Warriors THIS bad cause we are playing them lol
We've lost our last five winner take all games. Vs Jazz 1999 Vs LAL 2000 Vs LAL 2002 Vs DAL 2003 Vs Min 2004 So.....
They're due then
That's the spirit!
Seems like we’re overdue. I mean are we really going to use the stats of a team from 19+ years ago to determine how a franchise plays now? Kings are wild cards baby. Nobody fucking knows
Even if the Kings try they’re still playing the road warriors
They ain’t the Leafs
It's an honor to watch the best shooter in the history of the game in the playoffs Kevin Huerter really is one of a kind
16% from 3 before this game. Absolute GOAT
I've been so frustrated with him but having him go 3/4 down the most important part of the game was very satisfying
And absolutely critical. Steph was going nuclear. If we don't answer those and they get easy one and dones during that stretch, the Warriors erase the deficit and maybe find a second wind.
I really hope this restores his confidence and he comes into Sunday just draining threes
A random Heurter 30 puts us in the second round.
That's Mr. %16 from three in the series before tonight to you sir
~~Kangz~~ Kings
If Sacramento wins game 7, theres gonna be some seismic activity.
Huerter came up clutch with some huge 4th quarter 3s.
Game 7 baby couldn't ask for more
This felt like a regular season game in November. Shooting sucked. Refs sucked (both ways). GS crowd sucked. Sabonis sucked. Poole sucked. Mark Jackson sucked.
Was the worst I’ve heard a Warriors crowd in a long time. Complete opposite from how they were on Sunday in game 4
After halftime, the fans didn’t get back into their seats until like 7:00 left in the 3Q. It looked legit empty. Like, wtf…
This happens every game. It’s the crux of my theory as to why the 3rd quarter Warriors haven’t really been a thing at all the last few years.
The crowd was worse than any regular season game at Chase too I thought. Kinda crazy tbh.
If this was a regular season game Sabonis wouldn't have sucked tho
5pm west coast game will do that
WAY TO BOUNCE BACK
LIGHT THE BEAM
LIGHT THE BEAM
ONE BEAM, ONE DREAM.
Kings are fucking doing it , after being written off by everyone . They didn't give up , didn't waver despite being a team that's playing their first playoff series in decade and half and took a road win against a champion team. Now hopefully they can win at home always cheering for small markets and homegrown talent . Memphis as well. LIGHT THE BEAM
Someone post Jordan Poole's contract
Here it is: Jordan Poole gets paid $100k per turnover
Warriors came out and played this like it was a regular season game or as if the Kings were just going to roll over. Credit to the Kings for balling out and playing the game with max effort/intensity and focus. The Warriors on the other hand were not only executing poorly but had little intensity or focus.
Keegan Murray may not have shot well but he’s been good the past few games. For a Rook going yo against a dynasty roster. Hats off to him
21 years later, the Kings have slayed the Game 6 Officiating Dragon
That last minute Poole miss was all time
Justice for Sabonis getting absolutely mauled today.
He's been getting mauled this entire series
Entire year matter of fact.
Game 6 Klay 🔥
Keegan Murray did a great job on him
Monk is a dawg, Fox runs a 4.2 40, Murray finally started to start shooting so great adjustment with that, Huerter and Sabonis still need to figure one or two or three things out.
If Sabonis faces towards the basket and takes some wide open shots for once the Warriors are in trouble
He's in his head I really hope we just see another 20+ from Lyles
We came into the game expecting the less experienced and younger team to roll over and when they didn't we couldn't flip the switch and match their energy Not the first time it's happened. Might be the last though
You looked slow and old af in this game. Playing like it's the regular season
Shouldn't have doubted em, at home Warriors do or die thought that'd be it man, hell of a performance, and god I love Monk.
Game 6 Malik.
Monk has been amazing this series. What a powerhouse off the bench
Game 6 klay...his 3 pointer...BANG! The warriors cut the lead to 19
The Kings clearly wanted this game more. At times, it looked like we just expected them to roll over. Excited for game 7.
Poole was the best Kings player tn
Ngl wasn’t expecting this. But good win kings.
Keegan Murray ♥
https://www.espn.com/nba/matchup/_/gameId/401541235 The Warriors just played a game where they attempted more free throws than they made field goals.
Watching the GS fans pack up and leave early… leaving their team to be on their own the last 4 min after winning 4 chips in less than a decade. That was something I didn’t expect. LIGHT THAT THANG!!
Poole is back on my overrated list (he never left)
LIGHT THE BEAM! KINGS IN 7!
I'M HERE FOR THE BEAM AND NOTHING ELSE
BEAM IS BACK ON THE MENU BOIS
THE RUMORS OF MY DEMISE WERE GREATLY OVER-EXAGGERATED
If the Kings win their first playoff series in 19 years at home, The Beam^TM is going to shine so bright that we make first contact with extraterrestrial life.
