The best let’s do it deuce and mo we’re coming down three two one hit my music de Mo they tell you what they the Pod that you know welcome to the juice Mo podcast recording this on a Sunday night after a heartbreaking Kings loss so disappointing in so many ways
Because the Kings had a lead they are up 141 to 137 with 18.4 seconds to go they end up losing 143 to 142 because Dame Lillard hit a gamewinner threep pointer at the buzzer and the Bucks get the win each and every one of our podcasts presented by our
Friends at Northwest Exteriors check out trust northwest.com I’m juice Mason alongside Morgan Reagan and mo this one hurts this one really really hurts and there’s so much to unpack from this one because there’s so much good from this game we saw the emergence of Kevin herder back in the lineup and showing
Life a shorter rotation a tighter rotation a lot of good the Kings kind of looked like the team from last year but poor execution down the stretch and then we saw the most epic of Epic postgame press conferences from Mike Brown who got ejected from this game and then
After goes to the podium bust out the laptop and is starting to show missed calls by the officials tonight Morgan how you doing I’m so good what a night what a night what a I where do we start on this one I mean there’s so many
Different ways we can go about this one but like I feel like already your emotions are just like here and here like when we started the show you’re like oh we are live or whatever and then you got all excited and then and then two seconds later you’re just like oh
What a D and you chucked your watch and then you’re like are you happy are you happy Mor I’m like I’m [ __ ] great I don’t know where you’re at but I’m great tonight I feel amazing you feel amazing even after what went down the stretch of
This game well let’s just start with the end of it okay because we can bounce around there’s so many angles in this one but ultimately it was a king’s loss because Dame Lillard hit that game winner Morgan they’re up 141 to 137 monks fou he goes to the line Malik
Monk despite the fact that the kings are the worst free throw shooting team in the NBA is their best free throw shooter 87% at the line he was 0 for two at the line with 18.4 to go by the way Malik monk missed four free throws tonight
That just doesn’t happen he was six of 10 overall but missed two big ones when the kings are up 141 to 137 then a defensive breakdown and Brook Lopez hits a huge three like like 7 seconds later with 11.5 you’re like okay now now it’s a
Little tighter here it’s 141 to 140 at that point but the Kings have the ball you’re going to get foul why don’t you get it inbounded hit a couple of free throws and you move on You Escape well dearen Fox is fouled with 5.2 to go fox
Goes one of two at the free throw line wow so with 5.2 seconds to go the kings are up one wow this is just so hard to deal with 142 to 140 Dame Lillard the inbounder dearen fox decides to help off of Dame who’s the inbounder Dame looked
Like he wanted to give it to Giannis monk was kind of on Giannis so dearn kind of went toward Giannis Dame inbounds to Lopez who in return gives it right back to Dame Lillard who really had just a clear path I mean you give him space Fox tried to recover but Dame
Created separation and buried a three at the buzzer just awful execution down the stretch by the Kings awful awful execution and um on top of all that you talk about how Malik monk is one of the better free throw shooters Yannis an TMO is one of the not so good free throw
Shooters and um oh he was knocking down all of his clutch free throws down the stretch so it was killer he missed one down the stretcher that was big too though had huge one yeah he did miss that one and that was great but you’re talking about that last play with Dame
And I think right there alone is where we start with the execution and how the pressure was not put on properly and which is so surprising because the pressure throughout this entire game was put on it it was it was at a different level than what we’ve seen as of late right it
Was like they were locked in engag energy there against a better team it was there the resistance was not there on that final play it was like everyone just was like we got it Fox made the mistake Fox did not need to leave Dame to go help on Giannis like let Dame
Throw the ball to Yannis Monk Is on him and if anything Giannis is the guy that has to try to create something once he gets the ball and maybe he has to throw out a heave fine I’d rather have Giannis throw out some desperation [ __ ] long
Three for the win then Dame getting a clear Runway I mean you Dame cannot get the ball in that position and once you even when you recover monk could have helped on him or sabonis could have come up they didn’t Blitz him like Dame cannot get the ball in that situation
Cleanly he got the ball cleanly and that that’s what happened everyone was afraid that maybe maybe to foul him that like the refs were going to call a foul maybe and so like they were like all right let’s play this one safe playing it safe is getting your ass on Dame Lillard and
Making sure that he is feeling pressure at least you know the there was a lot of times throughout that game Dame was like throwing his body and being like give me to and one like all these veteran things and I’m not even making fun of it
Because he’s obviously so good at it um and has been doing it for a long time at that level but that final play it was like they didn’t want to mess with that they didn’t want to be the one to mess with that but at it it would have been
Nice if there was um more defensive pressure that’s it Dame cannot go be able to go downhill in that situation he is the inbounder he throws it to Lopez gets the ball right back that’s just a brutal Mistake by dearen Fox the kings in that situation and that that’s what’s
Unfortunate is one of your best guys Daren Fox misses a huge free throw lay and then there’s that defensive blunder by the Kings and this is not a game the king should have lost this is one we should have come on after like what a response after the game against the
Sixers that was disgusting they came out played like the team of last year the ball was moving 30 plus assists they came back from being down 12 yeah they did right Mike Brown gets ejected when the kings are down 10 they had a couple of free throws to make it a 12-point
Lead and the Kings rallied they took pun punches they were able to get back and make this an overtime game after Deon Fox that big bucket oh my God at the end of Y over time that was huge over Yannis yep execution down the stretch is just
And it was crazy because they started the the overtime period with a turnover the Kings did and then I was like a [ __ ] like that’s not the way you want to start and and then you saw them pick it up from there and when the Bucks were going scoreless and the kings were
Getting stops they were executing on the other end of the floor bucks having to call another timeout whatever it was looking great it felt like with the last 18 or so seconds left that when when the Bucks went into we’re going to Value mode that the kings were already in this
Place of we got this we won this and then free throws were being missed and it just wasn’t enough and when you have those moments those lapses against a team like the Milwaukee Bucks that have done at a very high level um and have been playing a lot better
Together that’s what could happen Malik monk after the game tweeted my fault sack I’ll be better so he’s obviously feeling it after you know he had a chance to kind of seal it for the Sacramento Kings but yeah yeah yeah just that that it just hurts because you
Literally had the game and that would have just been a massive win in a tough place to win against a team that has now beaten you 15 times in a row waiting for that one 15 straight now that was your shitty stat of the day nominee Morgan
There is not a part of me that thought the kings were going to lose when they were up four with 18 seconds to go that I mean that that’s the other you’re up four with 18 seconds to go and I know you never believe until there’s no time
Left but just being rational about it it’s like you you have to execute better down the stretch there’s so much good from game that we’ll talk about and I loved so many aspects I I loved everything until 18.4 to go when Malik monk stepped to the line and the free throw
Shooting hurt them tonight and they are last in the NBA in free throw percentage and in large part that’s because of fox and sabonis fox takes almost seven free throws a night he is shooting 72.6% yikes he improved last year I think he was around 78% from the line I
Want him to get to 80 he has dropped this year Deus sabonis has dropped this year he is second in free throw attempts he is shooting 67% from the free throw line so the the the two main guys your two best players are the ones who get to
Line the most and they are struggling big time and it it haunted the kings in this one yeah it that’s a great way to put it it haunted I the Kings I don’t know what the answer is like dear’s improved the three point shooting he dear’s been a mid-range guy that’s been
Really productive but the free throw thing if you’re playing close games that’s what we’re going to look at and that’s that’s exactly what happened you make one more free throw tonight one more we’re having a different conversation potentially yeah and that’s all of that sucks and the dagger
At the end of the game we’ve seen it oh so many times with Dame Lillard and that’s why when it did happen I think I was less broken that it was Dame that did it um because I was like typical this was going to happen at some point I disagree what I just
Because that play shouldn’t have happened anyway just Dame should not be able to get the ball in that situation I agree with that but it I mean like what it but it did happen I mean that’s my point is like it happened and it was not
Executed on the other side of the ball but Dame executing what he needs to do on that side of the ball like we’ve seen it before it’s typical it happens but the sad part is he didn’t even have to work for it on that final play that’s
What’s the most annoying [ __ ] about that final play but now I’ll get to one little thing that I wanted to say before the podcast and that was my opinion on this game because I have to drive back 90 minutes so I have a lot of time to
Think after a loss after a win after a lot of time and dece usually I get a call from him with instant reaction emotions and I’m like please pleas hold on and even my dad I called my dad and I got instant reaction emotions oh I’m so
Angry blah mad at the world like everyone I get it instant reaction you know what I did or I tried to do as soon as that post game came on because I was getting ready to talk to a king’s player and go did Mike Brown getting ejected
From the game end up you know motivating you guys to play with a little fire under your ass whatever that was not going to be my question but it was going to be a that okay and I didn’t get to ask that I didn’t get to know that
Answer and instead I’m coming on camera deflated from a Dame Lillard 3 but what I told myself when this game started and I said it to Matt Barnes too and I said you know what if they lose this game in a competitive style I’m going to be okay
Because I haven’t seen that in a while and I know there’s so many kings fans out there or NBA fans even going how dare you be okay with the loss you sick son of a of a [ __ ] well guess what I am okay with that loss and I’m not okay
With how it ended and how things were not executed oh no we’ll go over everything but where I am okay was finally the kings are not losing by 20 plus 16 plus points and we actually had a competitive game against a good team a competitive loss against a good
Team no moral Victory [ __ ] here don’t you worry anyone that’s calling me soft or sitting on a I’m okay I’m just telling you what my opinion what my opinion is you can have your opinion but that’s where I’m going with this one proceed I agree with that I mean it it
Yeah I mean I I don’t know how you watch tonight and aren’t satisfied with how the Kings responded because they have been just pathetic in some of these losses this year I mean just getting dragged the defense has been bad the shot making tonight felt like the team
That I saw last year with a little fight where Kevin herder thanks for arriving I know we’ll talk about all that so that that was a huge yes huge Plus for me but again you got to execute down the stretch and it’s a loss so the kings are
Now sitting at 23 and6 and then the other subplot to this is what happened after the game Mike Brown who got ejected from this one and his ejection was a story right oh the guy was RedHot he thought Fox got fouled by campaign he did the officials did not call it Mike
Brown gets on the court and he is going at the Young official he bumps into Pat conon who’s coming in transition to go after the official a little bit and I mean he went as close as he could to the official without bumping him I think Mike Brown’s going to get suspended for
That ejection but you know what I am so glad that Mike Brown got hot tonight I don’t think he’s gotten a technical thiss year year and I felt like there are times like mik you got to you got to give them one your your team needs that
You’ve been getting on them you got to get on the officials a little bit when things maybe aren’t going their way tonight he had seen enough I’m not a guy that slams officials all the time because I just think the job’s hard I understand it but the league has had
Some really tough moments over the last week and then they had some tough moments in this one it’s not just free throw discrepancy right it’s a consistency and I’m looking at the half I’m like 19 free throws for the bucks five for the Kings it made no sense
Especially on some of these calls where the kings are attacking not kind of they’re not getting the same type of whistle as the Bucks who are getting a favorable whistle right now that impacts the flow of the game that impacted the game in the first half and I was
Irritated by it it obviously irritated Mike Brown who lost his absolute [ __ ] on that play and I’m glad he did like it was clear it his team got fired up Trey L came over Malik M was like hugging him to pull him away from the official just
Like hey hey Mike coach coach you got it you got to but the kings were down 10 at that point and that Lit him up a little bit it totally did that lit a fire under their ass a little bit I don’t think it was because he I don’t think he was
Necessarily trying to do that mm I think he lost his [ __ ] because he wasn’t satisfied with some of these calls that were not being made out there by the officials in this one and it’s a larger issue in the league right now and you’re wondering why are there so many Miss
Calls people have conspiracy theories oh oh this is scripted the officials are anti this it’s none of that it’s none of that the the fact of the matter is there are more there you see younger officials getting opportunities now and these officials because you’ve had these longtime guys who either retired or left
The league for whatever reason who have been in the league forever they’re gone and they’re replacing them with younger officials who to be honest are like rookies in the NBA the lights are bright for for these people and they come in and they make mistakes and I’m seeing it
Game after game after game and tonight was a great example of this it’s about a consistent whistle there was not a consistent whistle in this game tonight there are Miss calls Galore and I’m so glad Mike Brown got ejected what do you think about that whole sequence well
That whole sequence I I’m with you when I saw him lose his [ __ ] I was like okay and then I saw the replay of what he lost his [ __ ] on and first I’m like wait wait where’s the foul you see another angle you see campaign doing his thing
Where he’s just tripping up dear and fox it’s a it is deemed a foul but screw even that play Let’s go forward to when Brook Lopez is has his arm on sabonis I believe it was and has one hand mon Malik thank you Malik monk has one arm
On him yes and Malik monk goes up to the basket they call the foul we all thought it was like yeah Malik Monk’s going to the free throw line the bucks challenge it and go that’s not a foulon Brook Lopez and the refs look at the replay and go all right successful challenge
It’s go it’s going to be you know uh it’s going to end up being bucks ball my point to this is Mike Brown breaks down how even that moment this forearm is deemed a foul in this league but all of a sudden it’s not deemed a foul for
Brook Lopez those moments were happening too much in this game where it’s like oh so that’s a foul for domas sa boness but that’s not a foul for Brook Lopez and then when Mike Brown was already gone I mean you even had that moment when sabonis took an elbow a Yannis onto TMO
Elbow to the freaking face a bonus the camera’s right on him he’s laying on the ground and he goes how is that a foul he was everybody at home watching that game he was just on the ground like I just got an elbow in the face luckily they
Did overturn but Mike Brown got ejected it was 927 to go in the fourth they were down 10 at the time after the free throw throws they were down a dozen and so my whole point to that whole thing was those moments were happening before or you know before Mike Brown got ejected
The moment Mike Brown got ejected and after Mike Brown got ejected so I understood his frustration and I enjoyed his frustration but I’m sad if he’s going to be suspended he’s going to be suspended and it sounds like he’s going to be I me he made he came onto the
Floor and a player ran into him I think that’s probably enough and then he went after the official and then of course what happened post game um was epic Mike Brown talked about hey we met some things up down the stretch Miss free throws we should have blitzed Dame on
That final possession we messed that up and then Mike Brown busted out a laptop in something we have not seen an NBA coach do post game before here’s Mike Brown talking after the game I just realized something this is going to be an edit you guys are like the
Audio isn’t on you’re right the audio isn’t on let’s go to Mike Brown let me let me see that man I just want to show you guys why I got kicked out of the game right here this is in the first H uh this is in the third third quarter
With 128 left to go in in the third and right here you can wa you can watch go back and watch he uh Fox barely puts his hand on uh on Dame’s hip okay incidental contact he didn’t push him or anything he barely puts his hand on there and
They give him three free throws now at half we were down I think 19 to5 in the free throws 19 to5 and I know I know that happens sometimes but that’s very frustrating when at the end of the half at the end of the half from what I’ve
Get get get get told all the time Malik drives uh um Lopez comes over and goes vertical with a forearm down here now from what the NBA tells me the rule is if you go vertical you got to have two hands up because domas has his hand down
Here a lot and they call them for it every time and they always tell us well you got a forearm here and they said that that they said that tonight they said forarm could be here as long as it’s not extended so I don’t know what
The rules are in this situation I need a clarification because again two hands up is what the rule is on verticality but they were here and they said Lopez could do this that’s a fivepoint swing they take away the two free throws and then Milwaukee goes down and hits a three and
To end the half at 19 to five that’s tough to deal with especially when you’re getting told different interpretations on a rule okay so now I go back they call this foul they call this foul again on FOX NOW again that he didn’t push him they they they said it’s
It’s supposed to be incidental contact they give him three free throws now watch this right right here Fox comes off a pick and roll the kid uh uh uh campaign hooks him hooks his arm look at Fox’s look at Fox’s arm when he spins off of this hooks his arm he almost Falls
No incidental contact he hooks his arm and almost Falls and and and there’s no foul and and and so to me as as a coach I I I’m okay with look again boom he almost Falls and that that that’s that’s at the fourth quarter at the 9:32 Mark
I’m okay as a coach because because the referees are human and they’re going to make mistakes but you just hope a there’s some sort of consistency B there’s some sort of communication between the refs and and the rest tonight they were great they communicated with me all night but in
Terms of the consistency you guys saw it right here Dame coming off the pick and roll and Foxy getting hooked and almost falling coming off the pick and roll and then on top of that if you get communication and you get some form of a consistency in the game
Okay then you can live with some things you can live with but but but the consistency that I see tonight wasn’t wasn’t my opinion there and then I I I I I don’t understand the rule if if if the rule is you got to go vertical in both
Hands up how can you give how can you take away two free throws when the guy got his forearm down here now if the if if they’re going to change the rule on me and say okay the forarm could be down here and other one could be up there all
Right then now I know it going forward but that’s not what the rule is cuz we get called on domas all the time and they tell us he’s got to have both hands up if you want to go vertical that’s why guy kicked Out okay Mike Brown think about this this guy gets tossed after losing his [ __ ] goes back to the locker room and goes video guys give me this play this play this play I need to play this on a laptop post game in the press conference and then his camera presence this guy
Was looking right into the camera he was making sure everybody who was watching at home felt his eyeballs Pierce through that TV so everybody could hear his message and to be honest he isn’t wrong and what’s wild about that is you know you’ve seen NBA coaches lose their minds
Post game with some epic rant I mean I don’t think it was some I mean he just went up there with some facts and collect in the post game with some facts oh receips proof timeline screenshots in everything shout to Natalie on Twitter atalie who posted that from Real Housewives Salt Lake City
So he came with the receipts I did that on the post game right after because that’s the first thing that my mind went to was Heather gay Real Housewives of Salt Lake City that reel going down one more and it was right there that’s amazing right there oh yeah this one
This is a Morgan a post game on NBC Sports California I just want to show you guys why I got Ked kicked out of the game right here receipts receipts scen shots screenshots timeline timeline give it to them Mike Brown in everything he came ready to
Go I loved it I loved it and here’s what I love about it too is that in this he goes the refs they’re human they were great they were commun everything he literally charged one of these humans and he charges them and then at the end
Is like you know at first he’s like I want clarification blah blah and by the end of this when he’s showing on his computer he goes I know that this is not a foul so why are you telling me that this is a foul on top of all that Matt
Matt Barnes in the post game was after uh Mike Brown was talking about how these are humans blah blah Matt Barnes just like screw referees they’re not humans blah blah blah and I’m like Matt they’re hum come come on he hates them the official in Wang who is a Young
Official and you again officials do make mistakes during games I just think the NBA is in a tough spot right now where you’ve got a lot of young officials in there who might not be completely ready to be at the NBA level at times and I
Think there’s so much that goes into it right the game is fast right there’s a lot going on and you have to be composed you have to be able to communicate with players and coaches and be locked in it it takes time and some of these
Officials are really young and can I can I just say though to we we say that but don’t you have to get NBA experience to like minutes to grow and get better as an official and like I I think when I say that and a lot of people might jump
On this if Matt Barnes heard this he would not be happy and you look at the G league and you look at officials trying to really figure it out there we’ve seen officials come from the g-league and then into the NBA and it’s a lot of practice it’s a lot of great experience
But then sometimes when they’re in the NBA it’s still a little different and sometimes I don’t know if it’s because there’s so much star power because the pace in the game is even quite different than the G League their similarities still different so I don’t know what it
Is but I guess my point is don’t you need those NBA minutes to just grow your game even as an official but the the point is is they’re coming in and it’s I’m sorry being in the G League you’re not you’re you’re playing you’re officiating games that don’t feel
Like they have the same Stakes right sure there aren’t millions of people or you know locally hundreds of thousands of people watching an NBA game okay you’ve got fans you’ve got people who bet the games you’ve got everybody in attendance and you’ve got Superstar NBA players coaches a lot on the line
There’s a lot of pressure that pressure is not the same pressure when you’re coaching a game and Sue Falls with hey you know 320 people there in a g game right it’s just a different type of pressure and it’s just like anything you you’re right you just need the Reps but
You have to have people who are locked in and ready for the moment ready for the heat that can handle the heat and that’s fair yeah but look you’re picking on a young guy it’s he’s not the only official who misses calls there’s veteran officials who Miss calls and
It’s just unfortunate that that continues to be a story right now in the NBA um but I think it is an experien issue right now for the league as far as what Mike Brown did I’m again I’m glad he got tossed I’m glad he did what he
Did I think this was overdue in a lot of ways he had not had a technical I could be wrong I don’t think he’s had a technical this year okay and even if he has had maybe he’s had one okay but I think he needed to do that not only to
Kind of send a me message to the officials but also like hey guys I got your back for the players you know I feel like The Vibes been kind of weird in Sacramento especially with how they’ve been playing and you know how Mike Brown’s kind of done things with
The rotation just been weird energy yeah and tonight felt more like last year’s energy like the team was playing the right way Browns all fired up from the start the rotation was tighter so there was just there is a lot of good to take away from tonight’s game and I I wonder
If tonight could be a turning point on one other note Keegan Murray did not play in the second half left with right hip irritation I think people think it happened when he went on that dunk attempt on Brook Lopez when Lopez blocked the shot and Keegan hit the
Ground pretty hard on that who knows how long that’s going to be for him hopefully it’s not like a long-term thing but that’s like an interesting subplot the Kings also were without Keegan Murray in the second half and Keegan was maybe missing some shots in the first half but dude was playing the
Guy was playing some good defense he had a task at the start of the game which was defend Dame Lillard think about that for a second right so I think they missed him in a lot of ways but Trey L started the second half Trey L had some
Nice moments tonight Kevin herder was big time anyway it it’s one of those games that um I think we’ll be talking about for a while just from the standpoint that there was so much drama in this one went to overtime poor execution the official officiating was weird and the Mike Brown’s epic postgame
Rant yeah love dramatic games but love them when they end in the fashion that I want them to end in and that would have been with a king’s win a Dame Lillard Miss at the end just execution from the Sacramento Kings but I think too now
Since we started at the back end in overtime for this game I would love to kind of go through it talk about some of these individuals and really going into that starting lineup for the Sacramento Kings before we go into some of the other rotations that we really liked but
With that starting line you had someone in Harrison Barnes coming out strong contributing to this team making sure that he was doing something out there in his almost 32 minutes scoring what 14 points in that one he came out aggressive he did and I just the reason
Why I think that’s important to say because when he contributes in one way or another and this is also with Keegan Murray going out in this game there are good things that happened for this team but it wasn’t only him being that X Factor it was also Kevin herder being
That other guy Kevin herder was fantastic yep it was fantastic and this is a good lesson for Kevin what’s the lesson don’t let the shots dictate your game Kevin herder did make shots tonight that was great it was how he played the guy was rebounding his ass off tonight
He had a double double he had 10 rebounds that was the most exciting part Kevin herder did have 20 plus points it’s the first time he’s had 20 plus points in a game since late November yes he’s been in a Major Funk you hope that this could be a turning point for him
I’ve maintained this with Kevin he’s a better player than he’s played this year there’s just no way you drop off like that he has had some weird energy weird in energy injury my goodness nice he’s been in his head right and I think Mike Brown may be in
His head a little bit whatever that is he came out tonight knocked down some shots and all of a sudden his Swagger was back he can’t let that dictate his game just play with the confidence he had 26 points he had 10 rebounds he had three assists he was active defensively
Had many deflections tonight 10 of 14 shooting six of nine from downtown I was thrilled for him to have that type of game because that has been such a bad spot for the Kings think about this he if he’s not playing well well Duarte was in there he’s G given them nothing
Really DTE didn’t even play tonight so I loved what Kevin herder brought what what jumped out to you about Kevin in this one I thought his confidence with his shot and we’ve seen him Chuck up some shots out there where it’s like you can feel either the hesitation and or
The release just not feeling the same I felt like all the other things that he was doing on the floor like you said running in there for a rebound um in when I say a rebound I’m talking about 10 rebounds that was was giving him a different type of confidence to produce
On the other end of the floor and when he was taking those threes there was no hesitation he was not when he saw go in he goes all right I feel good but it wasn’t only that moving without the basketball right from the beginning of
The game domas finding him on a uh it was like a slip and and domas had this perfect bounce pass to him boom easy to and those little things happening they get you going they make you feel confident and his confidence went all throughout this one I don’t even need to
See him score 26 every single night it’s like you said I just need him to produce some and do all the other things he can’t be a zero for you correct when he plays well it does wonders for the Kings offense I mean tonight they could handle
The loss of Keegan Murray because Kevin herder stepped up he played like he was 67 right and there’s sometimes he doesn’t play 67 uh defensively rebounding maybe he’s tentative out there he wasn’t that tonight I was so happy for him and I hope he could build
Off this because you know he he was such an important piece to this team and even you know the king’s offensive rating when he’s out there is still really good but it’s even better when he’s knocking down shots like tonight and he had a big shot late in this game in overtime you
Had the stretch we talked about the Kings being up 141 to 137 well the kings were down uh be this was a weird play too I’m glad we’re bringing this up so fox makes it 136 to 134 you got herder defending Dame which is like but Kevin was competing Giannis
Comes up hits him with a screen I felt like the screen knocked herder into Dame whatever herder makes contact with Dame on a three-point attempt fouled I okay when I saw that replay again I think it was herum heram heram herter momentum that led him in his body going
Into Dame fair enough it was just it was a tough sequence right so Dame who’s pretty much automatic at the line hits three free throws gives the Bucks the lead 137 to 136 Kevin hter shook it off and buried a three puts the Kings back
Up two then monk of course hit a jump shot to put him up four and then and we know the result but anyway I just it was it was really good to see Kevin play in a big big way I I think everyone needed
To see that and and I think uh it helped bring someone even like you to talk about this team and go hey they looked a lot more like what they did last year it’s because they had all these weapons and it wasn’t only being able to see
Kevin herder have some big moments and especially there late in some um really crucial moments but and mistakes were being made but mistakes were being made by your best player and dearn Fox as well but I just love that they felt like they had different guys that they had
Confidence in Malik monk dear Fox hitting some midrange shots late and it’s just like this team does not feel like there’s any egos around in when it comes to crunch time and I think that is such a huge thing to have going forward but you need everyone to be able to have
All the Malik monk confidence that they can get out there yeah I was really really pleased to see Kevin herder bounce back and let’s let’s hope he can keep this going the Kings need him especially if they’re going to be a successful team in the west you know he
Has not been a factor this year this year that’s insane almost halfway through the season and he’s been I mean the fact that we can go back to late November his last 20o game that’s pretty wild well and that’s why too whenever we talk about track record and why when you
Talk about this guy and all those trade rumors and those trade conversations it’s really difficult to think about at times because you go God this is still there and if he’s doing this against you on another team that’s difficult to think about but you also hope that is
What he’s able to do that is why the Kings made the trade in the first place Morgan we also need to talk about something that the chat’s been asking about us about with this game and that is a lineup that we have never seen the kings use was that NE we’ve never seen
That one before maybe for a second maybe I but I don’t I can’t remember I just trust you and your Excel sheets so I keep track of the lineups and tonight we saw one and I I had to do a double take what what happened 318 to go we saw a
Lineup that featured Malik monk Keegan Murray Trey ly Deon sabonis and Alex Len yeah we saw a big lineup debut in this game tonight well okay couple things about this loved it had fun they had fun out there what about all the people that always say I think domas should play power
Forward that say that a lot yeah I I’ve been mixed on it I mean I think it depends on the matchup I think there are some matchups that aren’t good but I was fine with them trying it tonight dear is moving pretty well I think he is showing
That much I think that’s been much improved with his game this year like I feel like he is moving a lot better especially on switches coming out on blitzes they Blitz Dame a he hand it pretty well but it was interesting to see him go big and I’m
Glad like try a different look you know like especially with a team that’s got size when you know you have a lineup out there that sometimes has Giannis and poris and Lopez but counter it a little bit and they even counted it when that the Bucks didn’t have all those guys in
There and I thought hey it looked all right like Len had some nice contest like he does usually domas was moving well the kings were rebounding I liked it yeah I’m I’m with you and I thought Alex Len’s moments and his minutes in this game um were just so fun
So fun he his presence the way that he’s moving out there has has looked so different so energetic you know you look at him as such a big body but even in that lineup too it was like he was able to just Sprint up and down the floor
Just some big moments from him the other thing that we saw tonight before Keegan went down Mike Brown played eight players eight eight Malik monk Alex Len Trey ly Sasha ended up getting some brief run in this one playing about 6 minutes and 24 seconds because Keegan
Was out and they you know Tre L needed a backup too so Sasha came in there he had four points and a rebound in his minutes but I like the fact that he tightened it a little bit I think the last I mean really for a while now it just seems
Like he is searching constantly Mike Brown’s like all right Colby you go in there KES you it’s too much yeah it’s too much yeah and you just need to find a group and stick with a group now I’m not saying never adjust but I want to
See these guys getting the some sort of Rhythm out there and I felt like tonight it it was good to see him stick to like an eight-man rotation some sort of Rhythm but also some sort of good mental state you know yeah like it’s it’s not like it’s it
Messes with people when that kind of stuff happened and it just felt like again you look at someone like Kevin herder because he was doing things he was staying on the floor but also he was staying on the floor so good things were happening as well longer leash was there
Shorter rotation I loved what Mike Brown had to offer ear yeah hey Mike Brown is he our Rock and Soul player of the game like honestly this is one of those games where I’m really happy with everything that he had to give let’s give some love to demonis sabonis too we even talked
About the fact that this guy had another triple double 21 points 15 assists 13 rebounds on nine of 10 shooting he played just under 45 minutes it’s his 10th triple double of the Season he’s second in triple doubles this year behind joic and sabonis has seven triple
Doubles in his past 13 games it’s wild what stood out to you about him tonight I just thought he was physical and aggressive from the start of the game on and there’s been times he went at Lopez tonight there’s been times finish with the rights when there’s frustrations and
We’ve seen him be frustrated and it takes him out of the game I haven’t seen that a lot lately and I think that’s led to a lot of triple doubles not only has it kept him on the floor I mean think about us talking about foul trouble at
The beginning of this year or the end of last year whenever it was this guy has been able to stay on the floor I think it was last game if anything that got those two or three fouls pretty early in the game so I don’t want to act like
He’s been doing this every single game but we’ve been seeing it more consistent where he’s able to stay on the floor because he’s using his chest and he’s using his chest on both ends of the floor the other thing about that though is tonight the Kings did something
Different in the past when they’ played the Bucks they’ve put Harrison Barnes on Giannis and it’s just been I watch I go why put put someone with some size on him they elected to put sabonis on him and that’s another credit to this guy is he stayed out of foul trouble and he
Took the shots from sabonis it wasn’t going to be perfect sabon we know how difficult Giannis is right the guy is just a physical freak he’s built like the Incredible Hulk or Deuce Mason and that that’s tough to deal with sometimes right what why are you smirking Morgan we we have similar B
It’s not I’m not trying to make it a thing but similar builds I’m not take off your shirt and show everyone show them you want me to right now everyone wants to see your body okay here I go that’s my stuck you’re going to wait wait wait you’re going to hit the wine
Just oh what h ripped as you could see what such a stupid [ __ ] you think I give that away for free only fans SL Deuce Mason anyway I thought sabonis did a fantastic job I love that they put sa bonis on Giannis it was good and they
Put Keegan on Dame some different looks going back to sabonis cuz that is who we are shining a little light on right now but you’re exactly right the way that he kept he didn’t allow it is difficult enough to be like all right if Giannis goes downhill shit’s difficult he was
Able to be at this perfect spot on the floor to be like shoot the midi but if you come in here I’m in a battle with you I’m not going to let you just get this line drive every time and there was moments he still had y still had his
Moments where he’d create space or find an easy way to get to the basket sure but for the most part I thought domas did a fantastic job on that end of the floor as well Giannis Shot 14 free throws tonight the Kings shot 20 there’s
A couple times I did feel to be honest the Kings they did breathe too hard on Giannis I mean breathe oh and and it just caused jolted him you know what I mean and I I get why they call it anyway um Yannis did have a triple double he had 27 points 10
Rebounds 10 assists nine of 16 shooting nine of 14 overall but I uh at the free throw line but I I did feel like they did a pretty solid job on him to make him work make life more challenging Dame was nine of 23 in this game five of 13
From three his fifth one was ultimately the game winner in this game the guys that absolutely destroyed Sacramento tonight were the others Bobby poris 9 of 11 with 22 Malik Beasley he cooled down a little bit late but it felt like he could not miss he came in tonight
Shooting something like 48% from three he was five of nine from downtown in this game yeah the others that was the story of the Milwaukee Bucks and not to say that their guys didn’t produce because I thought they still also did a great job but it wasn’t their 50o games
It wasn’t their 40o games instead it was everyone contrib rting for this team and uh like you said Portis Off the Bench but I also thought campaign had some big threes when he was in there he was three of four from Beyond The Arc he finished
With 15 points in his 12 minutes of play plus that foul that sent Mike Brown over the edge and out of this game yeah I didn’t even talk about campaign you’re right the the others I me I left campaign out the fact that he played 11
Minutes and 35 seconds was three of four from downtown five of seven hit some ridiculous shots I’m really this I’m glad he had a heat check miss that was really nice for Sacramento tonight uh we mentioned Deus sabonis with a huge triple double Kevin herder with a double
Double two 26 points and 10 rebounds three assists dearen Fox had a bizarre night he started four five and then he cooled down Big Time ends up finishing with 32 points 12 of 26 shooting two of six from three six of seven from the line that’s C six of seven at the line
The one miss free throw was what cost the Kings uh he had five assist in this game three steals didn’t cost the that one miss free throw it did because if he made both then sure James got to hit us three to force a double overtime I know
I guess I it’s and Malik Mon it’s no it’s true it’s true but sometimes it’s hard for me to because yes I agree but at the same time it’s like if anything what cost the game was that defense on team Lillard at theend which was dear
And fox and that’s to me more of that big moment than the Miss free throw but yes either way there’s so many of those moments at the end of this one that were tough but like you said Daren fox in his 43 minutes um still had a pretty a
Pretty good game out there especially the way that he was finding his mid-range shot and there was a few times where I thought he was being a little bit passive with the way that I think he had that dagger pass to sabonis that went out of he should have shot that he
Should have shot that Morgan that that moment right there I was like what are you even I think even domas because deuce I don’t know if you know this but I had a one-on-one with domas sabonis and he talked about domos in crunch time he’s looking to rebound when dearon is going
To the basket because he goes that guy’s going to shoot the ball and so even in that moment I think domas was like what the shoot that’s your shot man like shoot the ball so he had he had that moment wasn’t great it happens Malik monk by the way had 14 points combined
In fourth quarter in overtime 14 of his 20 eight points Off the Bench he had 28 points he had seven assists nine of 21 shooting for him he was four of nine from three he’s playing with such great energy tonight one of my favorite plays he had was a nice rebound and he
Absolutely got that rebound pushed went end to end he saw Dame in front of him laughed went right around him and got to the basket uh he had a big game for Sacramento in this one Kevin hder also had 11 points in the fourth quarter for
Sacramento 11 of his 26 points came team in the fourth quarter for Sacramento so there’s just so much good tonight and it’s weird to be talking about that after a loss but that you have to acknowledge it it was to me I feel so much better about this team compared to
How I was feeling after the I mean the losses lately have just been it’s just been bad every loss has been bad and tonight’s ending was awful I will admit that but I felt like the compete is what I want to see tonight what I wanted to
See tonight and going forward from the Kings it’s like give me some competitive games against good teams the Milwaukee Bucks are flaw I don’t think they have a championship team at this point but they’re a team that has enough to win a lot of regular season games they
Destroyed Boston the other night uh they lost to the Warriors or they lose the war they beat the Warriors last night yeah the warriors were short-handed though but they beat them they’re 28 and 12 and they’ve been playing well at home they’re a tough team to deal with
Especially offensively you see it with Dam and Yannis those guys create so many good looks for others we talked about the others tonight well you got to worry so much about that Dame Giannis pick and roll that someone like Malik Beasley gets some great open looks and there’s a
Reason why he is shooting such a high percentage from three he’s getting wide open looks because of these guys Dame is hard enough to deal with one-on-one Giannis is hard enough to deal with one-on-one so when you put other guys around them some shooting it’s a challenge I loved how Sacramento played
Uh someone in our chat said hey nothing is worse than being down by 50 at home and that’s exactly right we remember that feeling against the Pelicans and it was not pretty and not to say like it’s not to compare it’s literally what we’ve all been saying and Mike Bibby said it
On the postgame show after the Sixers game he goes I just want a competitive loss like I don’t even give a [ __ ] if it’s a loss like I just want a competitive loss and tonight it was one of those games against the Bucks where the Kings absolutely could have got the
Win should have got the win but they screwed up in some of these last minute overtime minutes and um it was a competitive loss no moral Victory don’t worry anyone that’s like you’re stof you moral Victory I may give it a moral victory tonight you know why cuz the
Kids haven’t had one this year they’ve Been uh who would be your rock and so player of the game chat who would be your player of the game tonight more who would your player of the game be does it have to be a player I mean it doesn’t have to be go ahead and nominate whoever you want I
Would like to nominate uh head coach Mike Brown for just being phenomenal with his uh rage toward the official I thought it was beautifully done with Malik monk trying to hug him off of him to his apology after the game and breaking down the wise he was angry I
Just loved it loved it you’re he’s so human he’s so relatable I love Mike bro yeah and I thought he Co he coached a good game today I like that he went the big lineup I like that as we’ve mentioned he tighten the rotation it felt like they played with a little bit
Of fire tonight uh we’re getting many mentions a couple of people mentioning Kevin herder Matt mentioning domas sabonis Jess mentioning sabonis Garrett saying herder Buckhorn saying herder Ruckus saying D no we’re not you know what let’s see who it is who is it the Rock and so player of the game hope I
Hit the right button Kevin herder gets it tonight good for him yeah I’m giving it to Kevin herder good job 26 points 10 rebounds three assists on 10 of 14 shoot shooting we need to have some perspective on this guy lately because he has been really really bad this year for Sacramento for
A guy that was so impactful for them last year I mean he didn’t play last game right he only played one minute against Charlotte against Detroit he had Four Points in 29 minutes Pelicans 17 points but you know that was a blowout before that Toronto three points Orlando
He played 18 minutes had two points in the loss against the Hornets he had four Morgan dud his points haven’t been felt my that’s my point he has had before tonight double figures in one two three four games since December you have go all the way back to
November 28th when he had 21 points nine rebounds five assists and a win against the Warriors when the Kings rallied back in that inseason tournament game so I’m so happy for this guy because he is someone that struggles with confidence when he is in a funk and he’s dealt with
Some adversity this year he responded in a big way tonight he looked like the Kevin hder of old again and I think there’s so many people who talk about oh the Kings they don’t run the same offense dude the kings are running the same amount of dribble handoffs as they
Did last year actually a little bit more the difference is hand you’re not making the shots you’re not making the shots you’re not as efficient teams are defending it better but Kevin got it going tonight and I was really happy for him a rock and soul player of the game
Kevin herder yeah make sure you go check out Rock and Soul Diner just six blocks away from Golden One Center Friday and Saturday nights in January you can get 50% off your entire bill after the King’s game and during the King’s game 25% off appetizers and drinks it’s a hell of a deal
Morgan yes do you think this loss oh I don’t know do you feel like this loss I guess it goes back to a moral Victory thing which we’re not talking about but literally I feel like this this game should give the Kings a little bit of confidence even the way it ended crappy
No okay can I tell you why I because I have felt that way about other wins this season this season not this year this season where I’m like all right this is where they’re turning the corner I still think they’re cons inconsistent team until they show me otherwise until they
Show themselves otherwise right like this game this game is the start even though it’s a loss it’s the start of being more like themselves again what what are they going to do coming up against the Suns and even if it’s a loss against the Suns I will not be as happy
Or chipper as I was tonight but but if it’s a loss in a competitive game and it gives us something to break down and actually talk about with their game and not just being disappointed in some blowout [ __ ] loss then all right we can start talking about okay are we
Getting somewhere with this team in this rotation what would be your Sharie Jeweler’s moments of the game how about would it be Dame falling Fox on a three-point attempt in overtime that did not get called dude we didn’t talk about that enough talk about it really quick before I mean it didn’t
Decide the game and it’s like well Fox making free throws anyway but like it’s just annoying know uh Fox launched to three in the overtime period Dame clearly hit him I went back and watched the replay in fact you’re probably going okay dees are you exaggerating well I’m
Glad you asked this is this is how Petty I am I said let’s go the tape I’m like Mike Brown right now I’m bringing out the laptop pretend I have the laptop okay so here is this is an overtime the kings are up I think it’s 130 to8 347 to
Go Dame is defending I go slow motion clearly hits Taps it Taps it yeah and then let me rewind for you too if you don’t mind this is extra slow motion for you here’s Dame contesting the shot makes contact he tried to pull back his hand fast but he made enough contact to
Alter the shot that is a foul and that should have been called a foul which would have been three free throws for dearen Fox with the Kings up 2 347 going over even the ref’s not questioning like why was that such an airball you know it’s not like dearen Fox with tired legs
And chucking up a shot it was surprising to me that they weren’t like okay did that was that tipped was did anyone see that ball tipped no it was clearly he got knocked on the wrist and dearn was I after that play and he had every right
To be he his shot was altered because of it and so some [ __ ] that was beyond frustrating did I just pull Mike Brown I just brought out some evidence just right there no this is just naturally us this is not a Mike Brown stop trying to act like
You’re like Mike Brown we all want to be Mike Brown coach qualities okay so that’s not the moment of the game no okay yeah the moment of the game um God there was the sequence of the game I wish I remembered it well but it was just domasa bonus everywhere on the
Defensive end and I want to look back at it it tomorrow to show you just so we remember coming back to this moment but my moment of the game Mike Brown going off I just want to remember that because I think Mike Brown laptop that post game and then going off
And ejection yep we do have to note Miss free throws because I think when we look back at this game when we pull this from the moment jar sh’s M Sharie jer’s moment of the game Dame dagger put on there I you know what I’m not going to
Forget it okay that’s how that’s how much is going to stick with me our Sharie Jeweler’s moment of the game pretty much Mike Brown oh you your mood just keeps going up and down yeah it does Morgan because I cannot believe Dame got that look why why did you defend remind me I
Just would love to know and I don’t know if Fox talked about it after the game but I would love to know in that situation like de why did you think like to go defend Giannis on the inbound when monk was in front of him I don’t think
There was I the reaction there is just like that can’t be the case and then you’re just in recovery and then you have a chance to kind of recover from it oh yeah and sabonis come up and Blitz I mean the guy cannot Sid step into a
Three with 5.3 to go I mean this is just an breakdown of Epic Proportions I mean this is look he runs back on Dame you know what what was interesting sabonis why was sabonis playing off sabonis was at the free throw line sabonis should have came up almost to Brook Lopez First
To be like all right let me come up even more but you look back at even that situation with dearn Fox it’s not like he he he didn’t give up he let up he let up and in just in in a split second he was standing up instead of sitting down
And that defensive stance dce it was it was such a quick moment like looking back at it again it’s like if he doesn’t go toward Yannis that’s not just his fault though that’s I understand it’s not no and I mean after that I mean if you really like yeah if you really want
To break it oops didn’t wait so you didn’t like the way that he was trying to deny with Malik on Giannis you didn’t need to okay let Yannis gets the ball look at where his angle is so Giannis maybe gets by Giannis is going to have like some [ __ ] like half heave and
It’s yanis I’m not worried about that what I’m worried about is this guy getting the ball back so now Dame right at this moment I mean he’s got an ability to go downhill sabonis at the free throw line sabonis decides to back up why at that point you know I think
He’s a little worried about Giannis at that moment but look at this moment D look dear thinks he’s got Dame Dame can put on a little move he does just that sabonis why are you staying there the you know what can beat you a three-pointer not a two a two can’t beat
You so get your ass up and get up there Blitz him I he cannot get that look I was so much I was way angrier before but watching this over and over it’s worse to me no it’s not it to me it’s not as bad it’s it’s bad oh don’t get me wrong
It’s bad but what’s bad about it is you don’t leave Dane listen listen what’s bad about it is just the IQ not kicking in for everybody right that that was and that was it that is it because I I even I thought I thought maybe dearen
Was like too much uh like too loose with this situation when I first watched it but looking at it again it’s not that he’s loose it was just they weren’t reacting quick enough to their personnel and even right there Dame crosses is over Andor just starts going down toward the middle instead of
Down the right lane and that’s where dear’s body he gets that one step in front of him and domas just stop look how far domas right there he’s thinking there’s three seconds left on the clock he’s just thinking I’m not letting I’m protecting my paint but I get it I get
It I’m not saying he’s right top of the key now you drop back and then that’s that does nothing and it’s a hell of a shot by Dam let’s also acknowledge that like I don’t it’s a hell of a shot but he shouldn’t have got that shot and that’s what’s disappointing is I
Understand Dar recovered but who cares at this point this is where it’s communication monks like I monk should be like I got him I got him instead D yeah yeah it’s just I would not even worried about Giannis in that point at that point I guess my point is is like
I’m not leaving I’m that’s dear’s had moments like that late in the game where he gets the ball back you know guess what though he’s not going to have that moment again he’s not going to have that moment again not this season he’s not going to have that moment
Again I think he looks at that and like even if Mike Brown is trying to stick up for him and goes we should have blitzed Dame at the end of this one it’s like even if you were to Blitz D it doesn’t matter it’s it’s on you want to you want
To still put that much pressure and that much responsibility on your leader in dearn Fox to just get it right Kyle says you act like it was wide open Catch and shoot three no Kyle but here’s the thing like The Details Matter in these late game situations and that’s what
Basketball is you know the deta these players are so good right so you have to do everything in your power to make it slightly more difficult and Dame getting the ball downhill is he’s done this like this is he’s comfortable with that like oh I have a
Straight line to get to my spot and that’s someone that’s done it before Kyle and that’s the only reason why it’s like because I get what you’re saying too you’re like wait it wasn’t the the easiest look but for Dame that’s like a walk in the park type of look and it’s
Just understanding the moment too like Waring like dearn coming off the inbounder to worry about Giannis getting the ball it’s like look Monk Is there and maybe help can come up like is Giannis Yannis could get P monk I guess and go but what are the odds that
Giannis is going all the way to the basket in that time he’s probably going to feel like he’s got to force something up where Dame just gets the ball right back and fox recovers but puts a little crossover on him gets to a spot so bonus doesn’t help bang that’s game and that’s
What’s unfortunate Philip says I threw up in my mouth right now that’s a bad feeling yeah we all did we all did we all did how do you bring me back to this dark spot is it because we were talking about the end of the game right yeah we
Were just I I didn’t bring you it’s not a dark spot it’s you guys I wanted it so bad it’s hey it’s a learning situation you might as well experience it now learn from it now move forward do you like my mindset I do we also should mention that tonight’s podcast presented

But they pulled away late to beat a Portland team 127 to 116 Portland had a ton of injuries Malcolm Brock didn’t did not play neither did Jeremy Grant they missed a few other people too including matis thel and a lot of people are like oh does that mean those guys are getting
Traded tonight maybe that’s what’s happening because they were kind of last minute scratches anyway uh the Suns wi they’re hanging up at 21 and 18 tonight Beal Booker and Durant played Durant had 21 Beal had 23 and Booker had 34 it’s our first chance to kind of see those
Three play together coming up on Tuesday yeah and I I think you look at this point of the season and you go all right let’s play a team that’s fully healthy so we can get a pulse on what our team this team currently can do against a
Team like that and that’s why even tonight I’m glad that Giannis played I know there was a second that he was questionable because of his shoulder uh Chris Middleton obviously wasn’t even playing that something else we didn’t mention in that one but yeah I I want to see it I want to
See it I want to see what the Kings can do especially with a day in between rest go to Phoenix Boom come home so overall you’re feeling what about the Kings the same wow I feel better oh that’s good I’m I’m glad that you feel better I definitely I feel the same
Until they show they put some some games together games to me and I said this last year but my expectations are different I said games to me it’s not just wins it’s how they’re winning and losing and even with if they lose tonight’s game and then find a way to
Battle back against the Suns if they lose against the Suns I will still feel that disappointment but it’s how they lose or how they win that I will that will make me have more pulse more of a pulse of where I want to go with this let’s get to some super chats Jersey
Devs Dona 10 bucks appreciate you see the king should have something like a swear jar a free throw Miss jar for charity per rated by player salary alternatively you could have performance bonuses and players contracts based on free throw percentage Yeah the free throw stuff I
It’s so hard to understand know I do some I’m not going to pretend like I’m some free throw expert sometimes I feel like Fox moves a little fast up there yeah take your time Giannis takes three hours up there can so so this sounds kind of dumb but whatever when I used to
Play and when I was trying to find my free throw Rhythm and when I Miss free throws a lot it was so annoying so then what I would start doing is like you see dear and fox trying to get into it quick it was more of a [ __ ] the mentality
Thing I don’t want this to be on my mind long I want this to just be in Rhythm so I would just go one dribble shot one dribble shot not even whatever take no time I realized that wasn’t working so I went more of the Giannis route where it was like
Breathe Focus mental it’s like golf almost when you’re at that free throw line like you need to make sure that you have the right mindset that was ultimately what I found out for me and I think for dear maybe that’s where he goes with it eventually
And I think sometimes too we go they just need to practice dude these guys they practice free throws all the time but there’s also something to the fact of practicing when you’re tired at the end of games right yeah so how do you do that that’s why you practice at the you
Shoot free throws at the end of practice after a hard practice run go to the line if you’re all fresh and just hitting free throws what’s that mean you don’t have a crowd around you you’re not really tired it’s a different level of mental toughness and focus when it’s a
Close game the pressure of that that’s one yeah being tired from playing a hard game is to you just have to fight through it and nail those free throws well that’s why coach makes them run at the end it’s not it’s not just because oh it’s discipline it’s literally to be
Tired and because it’s falling on you if you miss it everyone’s running liners or whatever so that mental state right there they want that pressure to be on you to be felt when you’re practicing geeky Nana donates three bucks thank you I miss Luke donates five bucks saying
It’s a beamless night as a sleep Plus open mike donated a few times tonight he donated uh two bucks then another two bucks thing for magic Deuce like Magic Mike he donated five bucks says besides the roster moves that are needed Mike Brown is not a championship coach Mike
Brown Mark Jackson Another coach will be needed to win the ship oh my God Open Mic so you I want to take that $5 I’m going to take it okay I’m GNA light it on fire that’s how I feel about thats comment but appreciate the but
Stop and also said I don’t always listen to podcast but when I do prefer juice and B good night thank you well Mike I love everything about you except that lame comment about Mike Brown um let’s get to some final thoughts overall final thoughts for me love the competitive nature love the
Style of this game but ultimately what I feel like we’ve been complaining about a lot of Mike Brown and his rotations love what we saw from it liked a lot of what we saw of it from tonight my final thought if you play like you did tonight
Oh you’re going to win a lot more games right play with that flow they look like they were having fun again now you got to execute down the stretch in close games part of it is they really haven’t played many close games yep they really haven’t so um you would like to
See them execute better down the stretch they did not do that in the overtime period in that final 18 seconds that’s going to live with you hopefully it’s a learning experience and you bounce back but overall I loved how they played tonight it was good to see Kevin herder
Bounce back hopefully Keegan all right we’ll be back live again to talk about everything Tuesday night let’s go and we will be putting out content all the time on our YouTube page youtube.com andm we preview games if there’s any breaking news around the NBA or any big trades that happen you know

love coach, he's passionate and he wants to win
Normally I root 4 Bucks. 3rd fav team. But SAC IS MY FAV. I wanted them 2 get this 1.
Foul time ⌚️!!!!
Maybe CMB needs to go back to that wind sprints for all of you can't hit 10 FTs in a row
The kings seem to be a pretty good team with bad team tendencies. That makes some very mid to me.
Man should have been a win but happy with coach browns reaction that’s the fire this team needs
Maybe this is the spark the team needs they won't forget this 1 for a while
Damn Morgan!! You brought passion in your voice like LA Knight, Yeah!!!
Brown should be rock and sol player of the game.
Brown = DPOG
Lets keep it pushing, gota break this 2 game loosing streak
How are you feeling after this loss?
