The Kings have given us some heartbreaking losses over the last couple of years. Last year, Fox hit a half court shot for the win, and this year in OT.

This should be a good one. The Kings definitely will try to redeem themselves for losing to the Wizards.

The clash of styles will be interesting. The Kings remind me a bit of the Pacers, and we've had success against them, but the Kings are more talented. Could definitely see it going either way, but still:

Let's GOOOOO Magic!!!!!!

We need to send a welcoming committee to introduce Monk to his new home.

Doubt he plays but a few minutes regardless of how the game goes.

With that said, have we discussed our farming system is possibly coming to an end with Michigan firing Juwan Howard last week?

We're probably due for an acceptable letdown...which would make this a tremendous win!

Sabonis has had an absurd amount of triple doubles-kind of under the radar...I'll be watching the dynamic of him (a big man) working with other scorers playing off of him ----- because that's what we're attempting to become. They've got a legit scoring PG, but we've got a legit scoring wing...should be a good one. We'll see who can impose their will on the other team's style of play. They lack our lockdown guys - but they've obviously got more firepower at more positions.

Really hoping for a high-profile game from Franz, in particular.

They have a bunch of 6'4 guards to throw against our gigantic lineups. Logically we should take advantage of this. But naaaaaaaah.

lol

Let's lay yhr demons to rest with Fox's GW... beat them early and comfortably ( I hope )

Should be a very interesting matchup seeing as we hit a zillion threes last time and that won't happen again but we also didn't have Franz (only for 5 minutes), Ingles, Isaac, Cole, Fultz (meh) and Moe did literally nothing out there. Bench will be big for us if they continue playing well.

Feels like a let down game, not having Harris hurts and Houston is hot garbage. Hoping I'm wrong though. Put JI on sabonis and hope Paolo can carry the team

Cmon.. that's 11th man you are talking about. If you say he is our 8th man I would be concerned but 11th? That's filthy rich...
