De’Aaron Fox is unguardable this season for the Kings



De’Aaron Fox is unguardable this season for the Kings

Dearen Fox he’s not just chucking up threes sure that play that we just mentioned with the Luke Canard that felt a little bit more like it not the smartest play especially because he could just totally take Luke Canard to the uh rack but but at the same time I

Love and appreciate his confidence right now with his shooting and we’re seeing that is truly becoming something special a special part of his game and I don’t think he’s going to just set all the time and lose sight of what he can do get into the paint he’s going to be able

To do both just let him experiment and develop Morgan this guy is unguardable right now yes this season he has been unguardable you know we talk about some of the best one-on-one players in the game he’s up there I mean you think about what Anthony Edwards is doing this

Year incredible you know John Morant his first few games back has been amazing yes and I think de’arra now with the ability to create the threes I think that’s the other thing that I I want to keep mentioning it’s not like hey he’s not he’s hitting some open threes it’s

Catch and shoot there’s paint touches he’s just knocking him down it’s like no this I’ve mentioned this multiple times on the podcast and I know some people are kind of scoffed at and made fun of it hey okay deuce the handling the footwork there’s some Steph Curry in there I’m not saying

He’s Steph Curry has an elite shooter yet in the NBA I’m talking about I’m saying how he’s creating the shot it’s incredible people get so weird again just by using the same mechanics does not mean that you are comparing that the player is that same player okay everyone needs to understand that before

They freak out and go my God but for ring I’m so with you it’s if look back Y at some of the plays where he is creating his threes and he is splitting the Defenders with the push dribble and and then getting to the ball bringing it

Back step Bop perfect in Rhythm it’s beautiful deep ones in transition yes go watch them and then compare and let me know what you think so if you’re an NBA team at this point you’re just hoping Fox misses I mean that’s what it is because okay start start defending him start running him

Off the three-point line you’re done this guy is turning into one of the most unguardable players in the NBA right now because of his ability to hit the three create his own shot get to the basket he can get you in the mid-range it’s disgusting and then you think about the

Other end one of my favorite Fox plays tonight was when he posted up johnar and he went to work he was physical with him backed him down turn around Jumper in his face doing it all and I think Darren you know look I think he gets up for

Some of these matchups too because look he’s heard the noise over the years he’s heard johnar get a lot of love go around the league name a guard Shay gilis Alexander it doesn’t matter like the and I’m not taking anything away from these other players they’re great we’re

Talking about all NBA caliber players but I think he believes he’s better than them yeah and I think he thinks he should get more respect around the league and he he’s backing it up right now his team is winning he’s putting up massive numbers he’s getting whatever he

Wants he’s one of the best players in the league right now it’s interesting because it’s always there’s always something to when you’re that far behind and you’re you come from a small Market like the Sacramento Kings and it’s like okay we’ll get me some wins and we’ll

Talk okay here are your wins okay well actually develop a shot and we’ll talk okay here shot developing like it it’s so it’s exactly what you’re saying and it’s so exciting to watch right now um believe your eyes I think some people too and you talked about this after last

Game and you were like is this real like are these shots real is this really like going to be trending in the right Direction I’m like believe it believe it absolutely he’s shooting 40% I don’t know after tonight if he’s still cuz he was shooting 40.4% he’s right around 40%

After right around 40% you know and you just look at that leap even in that uh category for him and it’s it’s something else

Deuce and Mo discuss De’Aaron Fox’s big leap for the Sacramento Kings.

  1. It's hard to have him over the obvious MVP centers that pull in freaking 15 rebounds a game. So ranking him in exact order is tough, however, I'd say he's easily tied for a few other players for 4th or 5th best in the NBA.

    It's REALLY hard to be more productive than 7 footers let's be real.

  2. Put it this way, if Fox was doing what he does for us, but with Indiana, and Haliburton was doing what he's done, but with us… what do you think the narrative would be?

    Everyone would be killing us for trading away an MVP candidate. Meanwhile, Hali and his 20-20s for us would go under the radar.

    Oh, and would Hali even be able to play D like Swipa?

    Im just waiting for the media narrative on Hali to turn, when his defense gets tested in the playoffs…

  3. Loving the content yall, always great when other dedicated fans share similar insights. Love how we are being counted out rn, only gonna make the team hungrier
