Let's get this game thread created before the game actually tips off tonight
On the second night of a B2B, Kings take on Miami who will be missing a couple guys due to the fight that broke out in their game the other night. We're getting some good fortune here with them playing without Jimmy so we need to capitalize and get another big win. Every single game the rest of the way will be extremely important as the race to avoid the play in is going to be super tight until game 82. We need to continue to pick up wins and give ourselves some cushion. 16/26 of the remaining schedule being at home definitely helps but it's a pretty tough schedule opponent wise.

Agreed, we need to show the same level of focus and urgency we got last night. Would love to use the bench a little more too, but after Monk there seems to be a big drop off with Lyles not consistent enough to be a factor.

Tyler Herro and Terry Rozier have also been ruled out tonight.
Miami will be without Jimmy Butler, Nikola Jovic, Thomas Bryant, Tyler Herro and Terry Rozier.

Hope complacency does not creep in as had happened before this season. Does Miami have 8 players to dress?

this is going to be hard to pull off... no matter who Miami is missing that culture is tough to play against on a b2b

Well that was an awful quarter. Every team in the league should just play zone against us and I don't think we'd ever win a game.

No energy for 42 mins
Couldn't rebound when it mattered
Miami doubled our fts. No idea how we shot 12 fts a night we only took 30 3s
Missed at least 3 calls for fox. Kevin love was charging getting defensive fouls. Gotta play with more energy early but refs did us zero favors

Kevin Huerter was awful on both sides down the stretch, but his defense in the clutch was badddddd...
Keegan showing some offense at least
