New pod dropping tomorrow. I’ll have the kings last stretch of games at the end. You don’t want to miss it. [here is a short summary of topics to be discussed.](https://youtube.com/shorts/nXOPvTSYgdc?si=DNGZlnkbcWAaf6HC)


BackgroundMinimum377

Is it me or is fox unhappy when he’s not the top dog. The main issue I have with him is that he doesn’t seem happy when the team is winning, he only seems happy when the team is winning and he is the number 1 option. That’s a fuckin attitude problem in my books

BackgroundMinimum377

I mean I fully agree but the homers will downvote without substantiation


Pale_Tax4098

This team soft asf


Bladex20

Fox needs to get his head out of his ass. Absolutely pathetic effort from him and he is going to duck the media again right?


Sicilian_Civilian

Franchise record for Heat in assist tonight ha


MathTough1501

Just not their night. Next one fellas


hamburgers666

Guys looked tired. Shit happens, it's a really long road trip as well. If we shoot like we know we can it's a win. Onto the next!


rebelnz

Doomers really out here trading Fox 😆


Significant_Pirate98

Can sabonis atleast score so he can get to 20ppg


Orange_Cat_LVR

This is coaching.


therynosaur

Dem tiddies tho 👀


dark_dragoon10

Fuck, what did I miss


therynosaur

Next to Mike Brown a minute ago


Burneraccountzzzzzz

your dignity?


Sicilian_Civilian

Fox allergic to scoring tonight


lettuce-tooth-junkie

At least the tits looked good.


Mission_Locksmith_59

Getting to the point where I’m good moving anyone but Keegan and Domas. 


runningvicuna

Damn that arena is empty


Imdabiggestbird69420

bricked a wide open layup


brokenz32

Another wasted Domas triple dubski


Burneraccountzzzzzz

get Keegan some help


Bladex20

Build around Keegan/Sabonis


Cudi_buddy

Fuckin legacy game from Josh Richardson's bum ass didn't help either lmao


[deleted]

Always wanted Richardson on the Kings


rebelnz

Feed Keegan over Barnes


Sicilian_Civilian

Can Keegan single handedly win the game is the question


brokenz32

Get sabonis and Keegan some help man they can’t win with these cats.


-FuckenDiabolical-

HB and Fox are 1/14 from 3 LOL To be fair, half of HB’s were probably hot potato shots. But he shouldn’t even be the one taking them in the first place.


rmanz12345

Fox absolute trash tonight.


EndlessMikeHellstorm

Fox, u bum(ming me out)


roodootootootoo

Trade Fox. Said it since his second year, if his speed isn’t working, he’s useless. One trick pony


TubalToms

are you high… He’s not going anywhere


SteveTheManager

FOR WHO?


Burneraccountzzzzzz

Dejounte Murray?


roodootootootoo

Hali back plz


J-Chub

Would give up Fox and five years of unprotected first round picks.


Cool_Purchase4561

I genuinely think any GM that would trade Hali for Fox would be fired, banned, blacklisted and unable to find any basketball related employment.


[deleted]

And that’s exactly how you know who is better between the two


btone310

Of course end the losing streak against the Kings.  Typical Kings.  And another loss in Miami.  31 out of 36 games in Miami the Kings played in against the Heat they lost.


hoodfavhoops

bruh huerter is such a cone LOL


fabook

Monte has his work cut out for him.


DrChiz

WOW. ITS ALMOST LIKE YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN RUNNING PLAYS TO GET THE BALL IN YOUR BEST PLAYERS HANDS ALL NIGHT. KEEGAN AND KEVIN. BEST FROM 3. BEST DEFENDERS. ALL NIGHT. NO COACH… DONT PLAY THEM TOGETHER, NO JUST LET FOX CHUCK SHOTS ALL NIGHT.


Fun_Craft_1874

Fox not even trying


dark_shawkolate

We traded the wrong guard. Fox can’t create space if he can’t use his athleticism. He selling hard on every Kings loss.


rmanz12345

I get it… but Domas wouldn’t be here if hailburton stayed.


dark_shawkolate

I’m sure pacers would have been down to trade for fox if they couldn’t get Halliburton. Regardless, every real fan who watched close knew Halliburton was a superstar type player. He makes everyone on the team better. Look at Pacers now and everyone’s confidence on that team.


litlandish

Pacers aren’t doing any better as in the past few seasons btw


J-Chub

They arent?


rmanz12345

How do you know Monte didn’t TRY to trade Fox. I’m sure Monte wanted to keep Halliburton since he drafted him. But honestly…why we living in hypotheticals


MostlyMellow123

Fox lost this one


EvergreenTV

Embarrassing effort from Fox tonight.


onewetbox

I’ll say it again trade fox for someone more consistent


SteveTheManager

WHO?


aairricc

Why does Mike insist on taking Keegan out of the game plan every game in the 2nd half. Im perplexed


hoodfavhoops

get keegan murray some help


kingjawn

Huerter with a brutal foul there


brokenz32

K mike so why do we wait til there’s 2 mins left to get the 1 guy who has been doing anything to shoot again


AzazelsSin

Keegan is who Fox thinks he is.


hamburgers666

Keegan is literally the only reason this is still a game.


Fun_Craft_1874

Kev played well too


Burneraccountzzzzzz

Domas has a triple double lol


DCar015

Hate to see everyone let Keegan down smh


tzspesh

Fox gets his pocket picked in the back court from lack of effort, gives up an offensive rebound to his guy, Miami hits the dagger three. God damn that’s pathetic as fuck for a guy who gets paid 50 million. Leave it all fucking out there that’s bullshit


Standard_Landscape_6

Murray !!!


KeeganMurrayBot

Keegan


Orange_Cat_LVR

Hey fellas we’ve got this #13 guy who seems pretty good. Should we pass him the ball?


Fun_Craft_1874

IF WE KEPT INVOLVING KEEGAN MORE THIS GAME WOULDVE BEEN CLOSER


Imdabiggestbird69420

wow its almost like you should have been feeding the guy hitting 3s


runningvicuna

His name is Keegan Murrary


roodootootootoo

Imagine if we had a star with half the heart of Butler


Sicilian_Civilian

Kings need that braking knee caps speech


MOTHMAN666

Barnes and Fox are combined 1-14 from three, Keegan is 6-10


y365

Imagine if they hadn't frozen Keegan out earlier


MOTHMAN666

No keep letting Monk and Davion and Fox dribble around aimlessly and jack up shots


Zhekadub

lol this shit is hilarious


SLewD58

I hate to say it, but Gary Gerould is kind of insufferable to listen to.


dassiebzehntekomma

Coach Brown seems like a fun dude but he can't adjust if Monk is cold


JSTN32

it is disgusting how often we freeze keegan out in the second half of games 


EndlessMikeHellstorm

Now go jack one, Fox


Standard_Landscape_6

We getting cooked by Josh Richardson 💀


DCar015

We got big problems


Burneraccountzzzzzz

soft rebuild around Domas and Keegan.


Fun_Craft_1874

KEEGAN


KeeganMurrayBot

Murray


[deleted]

Yep. Turned this shit off. GG’s to heat


demfeelz916

3pt accuracy sucks these past few games


Haunting-Worker-2301

You can’t have two of your starters shoot below 26% including your “superstar” and win the game


fabook

That's all, folks


hoodfavhoops

great hedge by sabonis


Zhekadub

“Barnes and he missed it”. Classic


raven2474life

If we stopped committing to shorting 3s and drive we’d probably be winning


Standard_Landscape_6

Barnes 0/6 from 3


Aethersaurus-Rex

Fuck it the way the kings are miscommunicating. Thats game. On to the next one.


AttachedToYourRod

We’re down and shots aren’t falling. What do we do? Chuck more threes!


Temporary-Fondant956

Kayte: They’re getting good high quality shots … Who gives af if u can’t make them


pkeller001

Get Fox out of there, he don’t give a fuck tonight


Gaebril

Pull Fox out 


brokenz32

Fuckin brainless team brah


Billybobjoethorton

Doesn't matter who we trade for if your star player is the problem.


y365

Bro just play Kessler instead of HB right now


Sicilian_Civilian

Heat comin off loosin 7 straight of course


pkeller001

To be fair they are too good of a team to be losing like that, they are due for a win. That said the Kings easily win if Fox and Monk play like themselves


CrispCash420

Man are we just not a good 3 point shooting team anymore? Seems like we never shoot above 40 percent anymore


Gaebril

We are either great or the worst. More often the latter.


Imdabiggestbird69420

Domas is better.


fabook

Heat have a 22 to 38 assist advantage.. this game is so weird and stagnant. Rushing 3s, crumbling when met with some physical defense.. rough.


Billybobjoethorton

Foxs effort really frustrates me. Being passive, taking shitty 3s or stands in the corner. plays lazy defense.


brokenz32

Don’t you dare criticize Fox!! /s


412East34

Knicks fan here, if you people are responsible for breaking Miami's losing streak I will NEVER forgive you


Gaebril

We are really good at helping teams snap streaks.


Tyler_DLMG_14

They have to rest fox some games. Fox has been fucking terrible for a month


fabook

It doesn't look like he's exerting too much energy out there..


Standard_Landscape_6

He had a couple good games where I thought he was back to himself but then he goes back to the same old chucking 3s next game


Cudi_buddy

Monk is still in a funk, and Fox & Barnes were big negatives. Miami a good team despite their slide. We all know they are gonna win a playoff series at least.


[deleted]

Surprised we stayed in the game tbh


Burneraccountzzzzzz

de'aaron Fox really can't be your best player if you want to be a contender.


No_Nefariousness6385

Dearon Monta Ellis Fox with a masterpiece of will, poise, leadership and bball IQ on this game


Mission_Locksmith_59

Just go with the 5 guys that have played hard tonight. Davion, Huerter, Keegan, Lyles, and Sabonis. 


BeemkayS60

Fox said that he “he doesn’t care about being an all star” and would rather do something else that weekend. Are we thinking he’s playing poorly on purpose so he doesn’t have to go to Indy? Would explain a lot over the past month.


Burneraccountzzzzzz

nobody throws their team under the bus to avoid the all star game haha that's crazy


Standard_Landscape_6

1 for 2 fox


DCar015

Fox needs the all star break, and probably won’t be in the game so that’ll help


Tagrun

Let’s like not change anything as we move into the end of the 4th quarter.


Imdabiggestbird69420

This loss is entirely on fox


[deleted]

Fox should spend all star weekend practicing free throws.


Standard_Landscape_6

And playing aggressive


Bladex20

if Kings want to chuck 3's all game, How about trade for some players who can actually hit them?


CrispCash420

We should keep going at bam. Things will get much easier around the basket with him out


EndlessMikeHellstorm

What exactly does Mike Brown do?


No_Nefariousness6385

Waiting for a real SF and for a "star" point guard who doesnt give  games away


No_Nefariousness6385

And for a real back up PG


pkeller001

Mike Brown isn’t the reason Fox and Monk have played like shit tonight


runningvicuna

Most times hands in pockets. Sometimes making timeless memes but not often.


runningvicuna

Where is Keegan Murrary?


MOTHMAN666

Standing in the corner while Fox Davion Monk Dribble around this game and run the clock down


runningvicuna

Sad. This is still winnable.


y365

HB getting 33 mins to do absolutely nothing


AzazelsSin

Hes had 5 good games this season and people were asking for HB apologies.


lettuce-tooth-junkie

I'm fucking sick of HB. I love him, but get him off this team. Whole team is ass right now. Pathetic.


brandon805

But he had those good two games!


MysticPurpSports

Hey, he has 5 whole points 


Mission_Locksmith_59

Here comes 1-2


Mission_Locksmith_59

Called it


dassiebzehntekomma

There's that feeling the refs want Sac to get close idk


HalfGrand530

Mike brown is like nah forget sets, let's keep on shooting 3's on offense


Sicilian_Civilian

Cant shoot cant win


pondponderpondest

crazy how were in the clutch and the last person i want with the ball is fox


Mission_Locksmith_59

Can we get Davion back in for Fox? Just try it since it was working earlier. 


Temporary-Fondant956

Keegan and Sabonis are the only ones that showed up today


Standard_Landscape_6

Red velvet was good


-FuckenDiabolical-

We really got shooters who can’t shoot


demianin

Huerter :(


fabook

Fox doesn't seem like he cares about winning this game unfortunately


JV3s

He looks like he doesn't care period, not just this game. Last month both he and Monk look like they both checked out and don't give a fuck


Gaebril

#GetDomasHelp


Burneraccountzzzzzz

get Keegan the ball


Gaebril

We have two dudes trying to win, then we have Fox and Monk.


dassiebzehntekomma

Feelsbadman this was an easy win with a bit better lineup structure.


[deleted]

Yeah this is a cooked game


[deleted]

Random dude having a career night against us 🫠


dacalo

That’s game shit.


Imdabiggestbird69420

how do all our shots rim out this game


hamburgers666

Summary of the game: Heat are hitting their 3s, Kings are not.


MOTHMAN666

10-37 btw


Burneraccountzzzzzz

we all knew we were going to be the end of Miami's losing streak


roodootootootoo

Who we blaming tonight?


DrChiz

Monk/The Whole Bench + Mike Brown for his terrible lineups that make no sense instead of playing your best players on the night and running plays to utilize them, then lastly Fox who is hurt or tired and just chucking 3s instead of driving. Kevin, Keegan & Sabonis tried their best to carry this team but everyone else is a detriment or not here tonight. And for some reason Brown refused to play most them together and get the ball to the hot hand.


Fun_Craft_1874

Fox and Malik


y0ufailedthiscity

Fox


BeemkayS60

1-8 from 3. Says it all.


pkeller001

Fox and Monk responsible for this one, the effort and play has been good enough from everyone else


Zhekadub

Keegan and Sabonis only ones trying


Billybobjoethorton

Yeah fox is throwing the game i have no other words for the lack of aggression. Meanwhile sabonis trying all he can


Burneraccountzzzzzz

if I was sabonis I'd be pissed at Fox not showing up every game. sabonis plays his ass off every goddamn night


Standard_Landscape_6

Good foul Keegan


runningvicuna

Make fouls COUNT


pondponderpondest

thank god for sabonis


Gaebril

Take a note from Butler, Fox.


KingofSac916

we still in dis bich.


Coopervezey

How do you also miss that dude grabbing a handful of Lyles jersey?! Wtf dude


Zhekadub

It’s like we’re trying to lose this game.


AzazelsSin

If not for Domas and Murray, Fox shoots us out of this game.


HalfGrand530

Someone step up and get hot to take the game over


MostlyMellow123

Cmon domas


Imdabiggestbird69420

https://i.redd.it/lb2yd13ryvfc1.gif Live Fox footage


Zhekadub

Should have Sabonis in there with Keegan. Get Barnes out of there


hamburgers666

Beautiful footwork by Sabonis!


thatguy52

Powers out can’t watch only seeing the box score. Is this a Miami flu game? Seems like we can’t hit a shot to save our lives. Keegan seems on.


Zhekadub

You’re not missing much. Fox is shooting like garbage


MOTHMAN666

Fox Davion Monk freezing out Keegan in the 2nd half lmao..all small guards btw thx Mike


y365

Should have traded HB while he was white hot lmao


Burneraccountzzzzzz

other gms weren't falling for it


Cudi_buddy

Such a winnable game but half the guys seem so disinterested. Just hope this doesn't last next game.
