Might as well announce it now… it’s Mike Brown. And it won’t be close.

The Kings are such a well coached team despite integrating a bunch of new players into their rotation, including a rookie.

Cs up 2-0 without a hitch and not much defensive resistance vs the Hawks.

Bucks down 0-1 vs the Heat and Giannis is doubtful for game 2 ‘cos KLove tried to take a charge vs Giannis in Game 1.

We were right to hope for the Hawks as a 1st round opponent.

Draymond definitely went overboard with stomp and deserved ejection. His past transgressions and behavior towards fans after ejection earns suspension. I don’t disagree that Sabonis getting stepped on was his own fault….but Green went way too far. For most other players I think just the ejection would have been enough.
They did the bare minimum. The stomp deserves an ejection and a game for rare offenders. It was an intentional attack that has more serious potential consequences than a punch. The fact that Draymond has had a continuous tattered history should have had him miss one or two more games.

For the first time in a long time, Barkley said something with merit.
The basketball world is yacking away about Dirty Dray - when they should be yacking away about an exciting young team kicking the Warriors in their cocky, mouth guard chewing, shoulder-shimmying asses.

The Kings have totally revamped their culture from the Boogie days. Good to see. I don't think there's one guy on their roster i don't like.
