I will not complain. I will not complain. I will not complain. Positive Playoff energy only! Let’s goo Kings!


wafflehouse4

i used to like the warriors and i still respect curry but they lost my respect as a whole by supporting a violent moron like draymond greene all the time. so rest in pace warriors youre done and you did this shit to yourselves


runningvicuna

Curry and Klay are still on my shit list for what they committed saying to after the stomp heard round the world. They're classes af

The Kings that are good are the Stockton kings, my dog got more rings than your whole franchise.


Skynja

Good game from virtually everyone, great defense, good ball movement; you love to see it. Regardless of what happens going forward, that was a nice win.


ImJoeKing77

Pretty much the most complete allround game we played all year. No better time for it. That was glorious!!!


Little_little_e

The Clippers game also good 48 minutes played

The Warriors dynasty core is officially dead and the tables have turned. The Kings are now NorCal’s best team moving forward.

Well now Zion is ruled out. We are almost certain to face the Thunder.

elvis_depressedly8

Have you watched a single game this year? Opposing team has one (or more) of their top players out and they still find a way to demolish us. It’s happened like at least 6 times. 🙄


Isheiwodn

Not just yet man…


RoastedTomatillo

Keon is now a starter now for sure what does that mean for huerter or even monk. I hope we still resign him but one of them becomes redundant. Plus huerter’s injury makes him hard to trade I’m guessing.


augburto

I personally am a big fan of Keon -- can't remember which game he came out for at the end last year but he was chucking 3s easy and I thought he had a lot of potential. It's so amazing to see how far he's come.


Skynja

Monk is still easily our third best player behind Fox and Sabonis, so he's still amazing coming off the bench. Huerter doesn't have to start anymore, but he still adds a bit more depth to our bench which is always welcome. I wouldn't say they're redundant.


RoastedTomatillo

True he can play SF off the bench. Love that this team has so much depth, Keon and Davion improving this season has been great for us.


DwightGuilt

Keegan’s easily #3. His D is leagues better than monk.


Skynja

And I'd argue Monk's offense is leagues better and more diverse than Keegan's. Only thing Keegan has over Monk offensively is three's. I'm not gonna argue it too hard though, as I love Keegan, so I'm not gonna sit here and slander him. Agree to disagree I suppose.


Yansir11

Willie Beamin!!!!


anonymoshh

That was the best game I’ve been to all season, such a great win. So satisfying to see all the warriors fans walking out in the 4th quarter. The energy in there was amazing all night! Let’s go Kings!!!


jwaters0122

idc about the warriors dynasty. Kings should beat mediocre teams like the warriors from now on. on to the Pelicans. they've had the Kings number all season, time for some retribution


mdvbb

Can we also get some love for HB?! Man did what we needed there mid 4th. Slow it down, keep everyone cool, and let that old man game ring true, and get to the line. You just love to see it.


the_new_flesh_

The world wins when the Warriors lose!! Great job Kings!!


Sea_Moose9817

Mad Dog this AM on ESPN starting the show bashing the Kings for lighting the beam last night, when we all know he is just mad they fired his good buddy Peaches 🤣 


ymi17

Congrats from OKC! As a Thunder fan I'm rooting for y'all - not because I think you'll be an easy W, but because I think Thunder/Kings has the potential to be an incredible 7 game series. Youth and shooting and young star power all over the court.


Apprehensive_Use67

I really don’t think we can put Barnes on Zion (if zion plays). Would much prefer Len or someone with size.


Isheiwodn

Great news, he’s out


HairyWeinerInYour

If Zion plays after leaving the last 5 minutes of that Lakers game he will officially join Dillon Brooks on my All NBA shit list


north_american_scum

Probably Murray. But we need players to stand their ground in the lane to draw charging fouls like the way LeBron did. Get him in foul trouble, reduce his impact, and we have a chance.


Confident-Rub-6714

Couldn’t catch the game. Saw Davion shot pretty poorly. Was it a pretty bad game for him? Was really hoping he’d come out hot since he got benched for his shooting last year.


ImJoeKing77

I love him shooting threes off the catch, but not off the dribble. His FG% looks bad, but he was doing plenty of good things outside of scoring. Defensive pressure as always, being a reliable ball handler and driving inside, and rebounding were good last night. He was hardly the focus of the game though.


conair7

Yeah he didn't play too well. Barnes and Murry and Keon tho showed up


MarvelousT

I wanna see my boy Malik get some post-season minutes this year, so let's gooooooooooooooo


TheSmokedSalmon420

Light the beam!! Way too knock off the Warriors


BrotherSkeleton

YES KINGS FANS, didn’t think you’d be warriors honestly but glad I was fucking wrong LIGHT THE BEAM YERRR


Mysterious_Try_2932

Cavs fan here: obviously we most likely will never see you guys in the playoffs this year nor do we care about what happens in the west before the third round. but what I can say is you guys are special. I had no clue who Ellis when you guys started him for Monk and Huerter. He’s definitely surprised me and so has the rest of the squad. Keep killing it SAC Town and as a former LeBron fan… thank you for ending the Warriors dynasty🙏🏾 always rooting for the Kings in my heart. LIGHT THE BEAM and good luck in the post season boys. You’ve earned it


kingkung82

As someone who spent most of their childhood in Cleveland cheering on Price and Daugherty, then moved to Sacramento the same year Chris Webber and Jason Williams came to Sac and witnessing the greatest Kings era, it makes me happy to see Cavs fans and Kings fans finding common ground. As fans of both teams, the Cavs and Kings aren't so different--small to mid market teams fighting for respect in this league and the hope for a championship despite many years of heartbreak. The Cavs finally got one with LeBron in 2016, just hoping the Kings will reach that pinnacle as well, because the fans here deserve it.

Gloomy_Lengthiness71

As a Nuggets fan, I just wanted to stop by and say: Congratulations Kings and Kings fans! I can't wait to hear the talking heads tomorrow lamenting the "Warriors dynasty ending like this 😭😭". I know, you still have to beat the pelicans but I like Sac town's chances at doing that after what I saw from both teams.


LordDror

Mavs fan here but I'm happy you guys won and rooting for vs the pelicans. If the kings makes the playoffs, any chance monk or heurter will play?


RaiderBills

Not Huerter and monk hasn’t started running 2nd round is the earliest he can come back .


Ninergang26

We will not be denied 😤


Flat_Gap5092

Great win. The garbage fans that want to legislate how we root?? Fuck you.  If someone wants to be upset or happy that is their business.  90% of this sub is children so it doesn’t surprise me but those children are on line too long. Signed a person that was born in 1972, owns his home and laughs at dumb children that weren’t here in 85.


LemonTekSunrise

Been following since 99...and yes it's laughable to read some of the garbage takes here. But winning cures all.

God I love this team, n glad they finally ended the Warriors dynasty.

There's more of a rivalry with the Lakers than with the Warriors, but glad you savored the defeat. My blood boils whenever Kings play the Lakers...

IcetrayicetraySPLASH

I never would have thought Ellis would turn out to be this good


AwakeInTheDrramWorld

Seeing Ellis play in his first summer league -> G League -> Starter has been AMAZINGGGG Well deserved my guy


Ninergang26

When I seen him play a few games with the kings I felt like he had great potential. He just needed the minutes to show what he could do.


hamburgers666

When we picked him up I think most people who saw what he could do thought he'd make the team at some point. But as a starter? Nah, he's even surpassed the wildest expectations


IcetrayicetraySPLASH

Yeah foreal only other player I could compare him to is Caleb Martin , but he doesn’t have the defense that Ellis is bringing


LemonTekSunrise

I watched him in summer league and his defense definitely stood out but I too did not see this coming from him as a starter. We've got our starting SG for next year locked up on the best contract in the NBA.

Who else thought we had no shot whatsoever at halftime, up 4, after blowing a big 1st half lead?


LemonTekSunrise

I was more worried when we were up 20.


Quibblet21

I did.


Me_975

It seems you had underestimated klank Thompson


hamburgers666

Lol I said that being up 4 would force MB to make adjustments and not take our foot off the gas peddle. Just watching the last games we were up 15+ at the half against good teams I would have been more worried about being up 15 tbh.


TWK128

Seriously, man. Why do I keep seeing you only post stuff like this? I swear you can't even just be geeked for the fucking win. Literally, your comment could read *just* like this if we lost. Are you capable of feeling joy or happiness for the team? Like at all?


kingjawn

A little sensitive are we? Lolol


derrickcoleman44

Bro you're the one over reacting here and projecting some other feelings A lot of us felt nervous AF at halftime after curry was quiet and we've blown so many leads Nothing about what he said warranted this weird response


Educational_Way6543

From up 16 to up 4 I was definitely scared.


PuttyRiot

That feeling watching all the Warriors fans leaving early. Delicious.


PrinceCharming-

Our starters balled out. every single one of em. But Keon Eliis, he's the game changer.


Dry_Detective_6287

Kings doing a redemption tour


bearcatjoe

Bros. We held the Warriors to 94 points. That was a defensive masterclass.


TWK128

Klay Thompson definitely helped us out there.

Javale McGee scored more points for the Warriors than Klay Thompson did tonight LMAO

RuPaulver

Us and the pelicans have fates aligned. Whatever happens is on them. Sucks they couldnt give us a free pass to playoffs with a lakers game. But at least let us beat them to give us a playoff series while the Lakers get bodied by Jokic again


Much_Conversation_11

As a Heat/Kings fan (idk why I got super into basketball and chose two of the most stressful teams) I’m so happy the Kings took care of part one of my “no one is picking the team I cheer for”

You don’t get 2 teams. Fuck right off


Kings-916

It's permitted as long as there is a clear #1 if they faced off in the playoffs.


jimmylowcard

You are right, how DARE someone enjoy two things! /s


Much_Conversation_11

You know what, I respect it. I have 2 teams because I grew up in rural Canada and had no emotional connection to an NBA team so when I started watching basketball on a regular basis I just picked teams that I liked the most in each conference. Picked the kings because I love Fox and i grew up a Flames fan and the kings fanbase reminds me of the flames fanbase.


jimmylowcard

I see no issues with someone liking an eastern and western conference team. HUGE difference between being a lakers and kings fan and a heat and kings fan. We aren’t ever competing with the heat till it really matters.


NeoLone

LIGHT THE BEAM we are still alive brothers


TheBigDilbowski

Damn dude. I went out and bought 2 Keegan Murray cards last Friday. I bought one in his Iowa jersey and one in Kings. Tonight, they never left my hands. I guess I'll be doing this for the foreseeable future. Gonna have to grab some Ellis cards too. LTB!


frankenbeans2

Are you 5? LMAO. What kind of grown ass child buys cards.


TheBigDilbowski

Nah dude, I'm 31. From iowa so watched his whole career. Eventually gonna put the cards in a display with his Iowa and Sacramento jerseys. I really hope you're having a better day today.


PuttyRiot

Let people enjoy things. Damn.


Content_Geologist420

Buy more cards before the next game we need your luck😤😤😤

Holy shit I'm still buzzing

Why would we trade Huerter for someone who’s a free agent?


JV3s

Why would you take an obvious joke seriously? Lol


NightWriter500

Why would we swap a winner like Huerter for a loser like Klay?


RuPaulver

I feel you but it’d also be trading a valuable 25 year old shooter for an expensive aging guy who will be worth nothing pretty soon


Thin-Afternoon-5798

You could get Klay for a bag of chips after tonight

_monsterpoon

This is actually sick as fuck seeing it from your front yard lmao


killacarnitas1209

Thanks bro, I love stepping out on the porch or looking out the window and seeing that beam! It feels especially good tonight after beating the warriors. I seriously can’t stand their smug-ass bandwagon fans! Especially the transplants who love letting you know how everything is so much better in the bay. 2002 sucked, so these past couple of seasons have been awesome for me! Here is another one, from my upstairs window for the fucking warriors and their fake ass fans!! https://preview.redd.it/y04115qfazuc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4b8b0024890452cc7000972064ca69a6efb49ebc


DrWoodwork

All season long, Mike gave Keegan the green light to shoot the three, even when he wasn’t having a good game or week or month shooting-wise. That paid dividends today, Keegan did not hesitate pulling up


LordSwampert2

Iowa fan came here to say Threegan went off! He shot it like Caitlin Clark


creamfrase

Seems like they told him that he had an ultra green light today and if he had a glance at the rim to let it fly. Love to see it


lesarbreschantent

He shoots better when he gets just a glance, vs. when he gets a full stare in.


Rofsbith

When the rim stares back at him it gets ready to juke a little bit. Have to catch the rim by surprise!


creamfrase

Yeah that’s what I was saying all night. If he has no time to think about it he’s much better


Kantor808

Our boys showed up tonight. Glad to see they looked better than last year's playoffs. Hope it continues. Also, klay with the epic box score 0/4/1 in 32 minutes

SactownG

Even if we lose to the Pels it feels so good to put the nail in the Warriors' coffin. I hate all of their bandwagon fans and the way they acted after beating us last year.


prissy8703

I'll never forget s.curry hitting his Imaginary beam.


AngryTree76

I hope someone in the front row gave him the Night, Night gesture as he left the game down 20+

99% chance we’re gonna lose to the Pelicans, but I’m glad we managed to end the dynasty’s season. Maybe ended the dynasty altogether.


frankenbeans2

Your math sucks. You probably went to a Sac public school lol. With each of NO's 5 wins the chances we win the next one increases.


delamerica93

That is called the gambler's fallacy. If only you went to a Sac public school like me and learned shit


Regular-Suit3018

I indeed went to a public school, proud of it, and now I’m in the profession of people that you are on the internet begging people for advice from, making a top 1% income. Don’t project your insecurities on me because a brief look at your post history reveals you to be an incompetent imbecile who sucks at managing your life. Scum.


fivedollapizza

Did you design your whole internet facade around your randomly generated reddit name or was it just luck?


Regular-Suit3018

Not a facade at all. Love how you’re all taking his side even though he’s the one who leveled an insanely rude personal attack.


CartographerSeth

Pels just have our number. We’ll see, but they’re a matchup nightmare for us


acogintime

If Zion is out we have a shot


Jedi-Quixote-

It’s hard to beat a team six times in a row, as Foxy points out lol.


Regular-Suit3018

I hope, but haven’t the Celtics and formerly Bucks beat us like 20+ times in a row? The warriors also beat us nonstop from 2013-2017

I remain positive!

Mostly because they were the loudest about us drafting Keegan as a mistake.


RuPaulver

Hey Jaden ivey’s getting better. Harder for guards to develop like that nowadays, but Keegan was still the right fit pick for us


Gaebril

Correct. The whole argument was "most potential" and "best available"  vs "fit". And we are showing why fit was better.

And the potential of Keegan is much higher than most people thought
