Kings (29-20) vs Pistons (6-43) 

Post#1 » by codydaze » Thu Feb 8, 2024 3:15 am

Kings return home from a solid road trip and face off against a bad Pistons team with multiple guys out. Cade, Bojan and Stew all out with injuries or injury management and Monte Morris and Kevin Knox are out with pending trades.

Get 25 points up and use the bench and rest the starters for the big game on Friday.

Up 14-11 but taking way too many threes. 7/9 field goal attempts have been from three. Need to get to the basket.

This team is either poorly coached or has a low basketball IQ or maybe both....

Allowing 70 to this Detroit team in a half is unacceptable. There's no way Monte can be watching this team and not go out and find some defensive help.

Giving up 70 points in the half against the worst team in the NBA — who by the way are missing a significant portion of their team….

Murray picks up 4 fouls, and he is left out there. FT shooting is an embarrassment, Brown has to show he can actually coach in game.

Getting punk’d by the Pistons again…

Down 15 at home in the 3rd quarter.

I’ve been tired of Keegan’s inconsistency and demeanor

And somehow it never gets said or praised, but the consistency of the teams franchise player night in/night out, Sabonis, is more than commendable.

Rest of the team comes and goes

Sabonis always feasts against sub-.500 teams. Those type of teams don’t have an answer against Sabonis.

Because of that, the Kings will always be at a minimum a play-in team.

Alec Burks has been a solid role player everywhere he's gone in his career except Sacramento.

Detroit 57% from three tonight. Cavs and Detroit are combined 40-72 from three over the last two games.

I honestly can't stand this team this year. It's just such a different team than last year. They literally played 10 minutes tonight. This team is not good enough to give such **** effort night in and night out.

The second I heard cade and Bojan sitting and 2 guys got traded, I knew this was a scheduled loss. Kings overlook teams and never learn their lesson

Ya I mean when you give up wide open 3s the first half of games, guys start to feel it. Doesn't matter if you start to play defense, after, they've already started rolling

Return to Sacramento Kings
