- The Sacramento Kings haven't made the playoffs since 2006, but they've had the best start to their season in a long time. Is the drought finally over?

Give Mike Brown a lot for turning around this franchise, especially improving the offense learning from Steve Kerr years prior even though he's a defensive minded coach
Still Lakers made the 2nd round in 2012
I think this proves he's a decent coach. In the past he was known for defense, now he's leading an offensive powerhouse. That's versatility comparable to Gregg Popovich.
@@Fencellisk It's good that u brought up Pop bcuz u may know or not know that Mike was on Pop's coaching staff in the early 00's a won a championship with him
@user-ve5hy6to1d Mike Brown was the reason why the Cavs teams were good defensively and finished top ten in defensive ratings three times
Don't forget about their GM Monte McNair too. I honestly think this turnaround wouldn't have happened hadn't not been for him. He made the right trades, drafted well & made the right choice to hire Mike Brown as coach. Vivek wanted Mark Jackson to be the Head Coach, but Monte stood up to Vivek & said they should go after Mike Brown instead. It's still too early in the season, but if the Kings make the playoffs, Monte most definitely has to win the GM of the year award & Mike Brown the Coach of the year for turning around this eternal shit show that's been going on for 16 consecutive years straight.
Miss red velvet but as a hawks fan I can’t be any happier he is finding his groove there!
good luck tonight! you can break our streak or we can light the beam for the 8th in a row!
@@chinter honestly, wouldn’t mind y’all lighting the beam. It’s a great tradition and y’all have a fun team to watch. Plus it’s nice to see SAC have a competitive team again
@Nolan Harris that’s my boi!!!
Red velvet is a hard ass nickname
the new stadium is huge. my brother played at the old one for norcal championship and I remember comparing it to oracle and feeling just bad for the Kings.
the new stadium isn’t new 😭 it’s been here for like 7 years and it can get louder than oracle did
@@ino.467 yea I like to forget that high school was 7 years ago
De'Aaron Fox really is the Kings' big ace.
Harrison Barnes is also getting better and I'm looking forward to getting stronger!
The strength of the Kings this year is real.
I’m all in. I see playoffs this year and major contenders in 2-3 years. They have to go through that process but they are young and it’s looking good for the first time in years.
For years I've never expected that much from the Kings. This is quite surprising.
They have all the tools, save for the fact that sabonis is a negative on defence and doesnt really have a perimeter game
When I saw Sabonis get traded in that package. I knew the kings were going to be good! :D
They are not going to maintain these numbers. They’re completely out of the norm
NO
Mike brown has had chances but nothings stood out? Did he not coach Lebron’s OG Cavs teams? One of which that made it to the finals?
We apparently just got the first 7 game win streak since 2004. I'm a Kings fan and I didn't even know that. Hopefully we can achieve a ten game win streak.
Not the first 7 game win streak in the league since 2004, just the first 7 game win streak in Sac since 2004
@@TheGaryDaniel That's what I said (probably could've worded it differently).
Who's we? Are you on the team?
@@janoycresnova9156 You know exactly what I mean stop acting stupid.
@@janoycresnova9156 smh lame
I believed in the Kings when they traded for Sabonis. Fox and Sabonis are some of my favorite players and since they are now together I started watching the Kings last season. Glad to see them doing well.
Sabonis is the best big man we've had since Miller and Divac. Versatile, strong, *and* can pass. Love watching him.
The last time my Kings were in the playoffs, I was only 11 years old.
I’m so happy to see them do well again and giving the whole Sacramento area something to be proud of once again.
I was 5...
Omg, I was 13 😮
It’s been that long.
How old are you now
@@OmarWkbari do the simple math man
I wasn’t born, I’m driving now. I was born a couple of days before the 06/07 season startef
As a kings fan I’ve seen nothing but pain and humiliation for years now it feels different fox is proving he’s a superstar up there with Morant for best young pg in the league the moves have all worked perfectly and this is the year the drought will end
Superstar is cazy
Fox ain't no superstar in my book, but it's good to see yall make some noise in the reg season
@@hypersinge9963 I thought bro was Skip for a sec
@@XabzintheNBAGuru hes playing like a superstar just based on his efficiency, numbers, and clutch factor. But I agree even as a kings fan he needs to sustain it for a few seasons to be labeled one. Should definitely be an all star though
@Anthony Rodriguez fox just beat morant, owns him almost everytime they play
Man, if you look at their roster I'm not surprised at the record! They have so many good pieces, Monk and Huerter are perfect fits.
We’ll see at all star break!!! If they’re still there at that point, then they’re making the playoffs!!
They will be the first seed
@@reidb6327 🤣
@@reidb6327 wild imagination
@@SANDMAN_7 We stay hopeful out here :)
@@bignoob24 as u should just like I’m hopeful the lakers will make the playoffs
Was starting to notice DeAron Fox wasn't really getting any love starting out this season on fire too!
This franchise makes u think about the time they were in the finals with the lakers and people make those breakdown videos of rigged calls. So it makes u wonder what this franchise would be if they actually won the finals in 02
This is what I love to see!! Teams improving!!
Sabonis is the difference
Mike Brown also came from Greg Popovich coaching style. Won a championship too. San Antonio Spurs. He was one of our coaches on the staff with Pop in the 2000s. Before leaving to coach LeBron and the Cleveland Caveliers.
I think Sacramento Kings get back to the playoffs this yr.
Iam your first like
Kings winning the championship
I'd win the lottery first before that happens
Tyreke Evans and Demarcus Cousins were supposed to bring the Kings a championship 😕
If we make playoffs the city would be lit
Imagine how crazy it would be to see the kings and clippers in the playoffs instead of the Lakers and the Warriors
That’s just gonna flood J street with more useless homeless people if Sac goes to playoffs
@@SpectorEuro4 idk about all that just saying the city been needing some good basketball back in Sacramento
@@bradleymartin3336 true that true that
I’m 15 and I live in Sacramento I’ve wanted to see them do good all my life, through all my entire life I’ve seen them have a ton of “good” first round picks and now thay actually might do it 🤞
Marvin bagley😅
LIGHT THE BEAM!
I've waited soooo long for them to become contenders again. I thought it was going to happen with Boogie but I was wrong. So glad to finally see them on top.
I want them to sign boog
@@raw-b6658 Could get the 2 for 1 special by getting IT as well.
ya if you actually watched the games you'd know that the defense has been better then the numbers. because of the high pace teams are scoring more because they are getting more shots up . plus the teams are making contested shots or we would leave bad shooters open and they are actually making those shots when they are a bad shooter....like the Pistons did on that game. Teams are over confident when they play us because everyone shits on us, so they still don't take us seriously. also the refs have been historically bad for us near the 2 min mark of the fourth quarter, giving teams hope or giving them the game. if you actually watched the games then you would know the first 4 games we lost and the 2 we later lost was because of bad officiating. but of course you don't watch the games why would you. if you did you would know we have been bad the last few years because our bench was horrible and the coaching was really bad, now that we got Mike Brown, he has been coaching the hell out of Fox in practice. anyways that's my 2 cents.
The refs has been bad completely. Huerter can tell there is a complete bias against the Kings by the refs since it was never been this bad for him with ATL.
love seeing smaller market teams succeed. hate seeing the same contenders every year it’s refreshing
The Sacramento kings will make the playoffs in 2023
DeAaron Fox is criminally underrated. The league needs to wake up. Sacramento is HERE
“Nobody expected the Kings to be this good” .. I DID!!
Mike Brown was the perfect coach to turn around the Kings franchise. Great additions to this team will help them next man up to the playoffs its about time Sacramento Kings playoff bound 👏🏾 🙌🏽 👍🏽 😎
adding 2 excellent shooters Kevin huerter and Malik monk next to Sabonis, Fox and Barnes made a big difference
Don't forget Mitchell!
Came back here after the Kings finally clinched a spot in the 2023 NBA Playoffs ending the longest Playoff drought in NBA history making it for the first time since 2006. Anyone else present here?
All I can say is ... Mark, is Proud. Sacramento, much more Prouder, now. CraazzzY in Sacramento !!!
Gotta give the Kings credit for making the win now move. Tyrese Haliburton is going to be great, no doubt. But De’Aaron Fox is also a very special talent, and Domantas Sabonis is a top 3 center in the league (obviously third, but still top 3.). Now what remains to be seen is if either Fox or Sabonis can truly show up in the playoffs.
Top 3 center? Stop this shit
@The_Golden_Warriors no he ain’t every year when his team gets a little success they try saying he is then by the end of the season he falls back to his regular spot
@The_Golden_Warriors yep! Which center do you think is better? Embiid and Jokic are clearly above. But who else? Bam? Vucevic? Valanciunas? Idk man, I think I take Sabonis over all those guys except for maybe Bam
I’m glad they finally turning it around I’m 22 years old and for as long as I been living I don’t even remember seeing the kings in the playoffs
Let’s go
The refs never give them proper calls, they haven't got the ref's respect yet. When they start calling fouls then Kings will be legit playoff team
Another underrated part of this team is that Harrison Barnes can guard multiple positions and excels at playing on or off the ball as a 3rd option. Ignore his 2016 finals and he has been consistent for majority of his career.
I'm so proud of my kings💜💜Keep going💪💪
Kings hadn't been a decent team since I was 19, now with Hureter they're going to be a premier playoff team
I'm predicting the kings over the next few years to have the same success as the 2000s jazz. Fox and sabonis will be the new deron williams and boozer. And murrray will be the new AK47 lol
Lol I’ll just take the playoffs for right now!
Hello
Demarcus Cousins and Tyreke Evans were supposed to be the next great Kings team. Then it was Marvin Bagley and Fox. Bagley was a bust bit Fox is a hit
i mean honestly i'm not saying they'll make the playoffs, but let me say this, if they're still playing this at the all star break, then they'll be making the playoffs and ending that long playoff drought, if the Phoenix Suns managed to do that , maybe this young Kings team can, even with the new permanent play-in tournament
You're clueless about basketball
@The_Golden_Warriors Kings won't be in the Play-in, they'll be a top seed team.
Pulling for the Kings and for Fox to be an allstar. Great to see these young guys progress.
For me, the issue is - unlike the Celtics historic offense - there might not be a lot of consistency in Sacramento moving forward. 0.5 basketball works until people just consider themselves hot and start shooting. In fact, that's what the old Celtics used to have problems with. I don't know, I think they'll regress
Me as a life long Kings fan: Finally, one of my favorite YT channels is making a video about the Kings, in a positive light! Lol.
This Kings team is reminiscent of 3 Oakland sports teams: the 2002 MoneyBall Oakland A's, 2012 Oakland A's & the 2016 Oakland Raiders. I say those 2 A's teams because of low expectations & the low key signings of players that are role players at best. I also say the 2016 Oakland Raiders because of their high powered offensive game, but shitty defensive game. What's also crazy is that the Kings coach is a great defensive mind just like the Raiders coach back in 2016. I really hope this team makes the playoffs this year. Their fans have gone through a lot for 16 long years of losing.
Mike Brown coach of the year then De`Aron Fox for most improved player of the year possibity of all-nba team ,Malik Monk
6th man of the year ,Ending the cursed of 16 years of no play-off appearance
Steve Kerr had to get surgery during the 2017 finals and mike brown stepped in and head coached during the finals
And again… you are wrong. Kings fans liked haliburton but once we got Sabonis kings fans loved him too and forgot all about Tyrese
Jaylen Brown next video Andy Hoops 🙏🙏🙏
Yes! Finally getting that respect
Shows much research you did. The Kings starting line up is the best defensive starting line up in the league. The defensive rating are skewers numbers since the Kings a lot, and many of it was from the beginning of the season. A team can't be bad defensively when you keep going on a run late in the 4th.
6th worst team was a stretch. Stop it. Kings fans including me said they would be a playoff team and said sky is the damn limit
Now if only we can get a true rim protector to play next to Sabonis…then we can go even higher
I been saying this since last year. Let's get Jonathan Isaac from the Magic! He is 6'11. Shot blocker. But is super quick. And can handle the ball and is a skinny version of Sabonis. He can run the break or with the break. He would be great
Jonathan Isaac hasn't played since tearing his ACL.
In 2020.
He's missed each of the last two full seasons, and there's no guarantee he'll even play again.
@@seand1011 exactly. Has had time to recover. And hasn't played for a while so prly can be had for a bag of chips. They have alot of bigs there. Big upside for nothing. I would take it. If they ask for too much....then nah
I just hope they do well and at least had a respectable season
LIGHT THE BEAM
LFG!!
Mike Brown & De'Aaron Fox Definitely Deserve Some Love , Brown Has Drastically Changed The Culture On Both Ends Of The Floor & Fox Looking Like A Superstar In The Making
It's funny when people who actually pay attention to the NBA say something like "the Kings will be good next year," and other people laugh it off because they don't have a deep understanding of the league. I'm proud to say I'm one of those people who made the prediction that the Kings would be a sleeper team this season.
As a Suns fan i am really happy for the Kings. Let some other teams be the punching bags now.
Ohhh man this video didn’t age well 😂 #beamteam
LIGHT THE BEAM !!!!
One month later, currently the 3rd seed in the West!
This year kinda been unpredictable but I'm not making any predictions until the turn of the calendar
I know it sounds crazy but I really want Sacramento to sign boogie, I think having him would be special especially if we made the playoffs, it’s be a nice send off and thank you to one of our superstars who was there when we were awful. I miss boogie:/
Needed him last night
Good thing our defense is average now
Kings are 10-6, let's see what happens after 25 more games.
Kings in the playoffs
As a lifelong kings fan, someone who recently just graduated highschool. If there was ever a year for them to make playoffs it would be this year. Either way I'm in it for the long haul, not this year? fine, next year for sure. They're making sacramento proud regardless
Kings most dangerous team in offense right now in the NBA but DEFENSE need improve individual 🔥🔥🔥
Finally the Kings are pretty damn good
I love how he pulled Brenden Nunes' article, his podcasts The Kings Beat and The Kings Pulse are some of my favorite Kings media
Also, Fox has been inconsistent, yet averaged 25/7 on an ENTIRE season?! What?? Last year he was slid to SG while Ty ran point and that is literally like moving Ja off ball. Dumbest decision they could have made RIGHT AFTER he had the 25/7 szn (in which he had a month + stretch @ 31ppg). People are casuals
Our absurd shooting comes down to earth? We are taking GOOD shots. It will drop, but it IS sustainable. Not to mention we have won games where we shot bad, and we have 6+ guys who can put up 20-30pts any given night. 6-8 seed, easy.
Kings finishing 75-7
And again, MANY Kings fans LOVED the trade for Domas from day 1 and in fact much of the fan base expected to use him to trade for an all star as early as the offseason before the trade happened. We all knew Fox was nowhere near his ceiling and was always going to be un upper level talent. He literally improved EVERY szn until last. Who can you say does that? Not many players… Not many Kings fans that thought Ty was the “better prospect”. He’s a damn good one but he isn’t even on the same tier of player and is far more a playmaker than a scorer or a closer in clutch.
Oh, the misconceptions…. But what do I know, as a Kings fan of 20+ years and someone who spends countless hours in Kings groups and listening to pods etc.
I've been a kings fan since I moved here in 98' . Had some good memories filled with primarily bad ones. I hope the kings can't keep up the momentum.
Four months after this video was uploaded, the Sacramento Kings just CLINCHED THE PLAYOFFS!!!
Hope they will make the playoffs DFOX must do extra effort its his team now💪💪💪
YES!!! The Kings make the playoffs and will continue to be the surprise team of the season (along with Utah). In fact, I predict the Kings will win 50+ games this season.
I can see it but they gonna need to get a defensive minded player cause they will get cooked in Playoffs
Kings i think for now it's a fun to watch team that they are getting results. I think their enthousiasm is a big part of why they are getting those results. I believe the will come down to earth because i dont think they will maintain the same shot efficiency plus they are bad in defence. I think that they will nearly miss the play-in this year. Now for bright side of things, i believe they are in the correct path to make something good in the upcoming years.
Kings got robbed against the Kobe/Shaq Lakers in the WCF when NBA officials were, arguably, outright corrupt. That was probably the best team to never win a title--or even make the Finals, though the WCF basically were the Finals back then. Good to see the Sacramento Kings back in the spotlight but the season is young. Fox and Sabonis look like all-stars.
DeAron Fox has made me a killing this year lol, the bookies never rate him. Yet he goes 25plus 4rebounds and 6 assists every week. This multi pays 5 to 1. Chuck him in for 2x 3 pointers for big bag
They had finally had the line-up by this year. Brown, Huerter and Delly are the glue as both the head and floor managers.
Relax...It's just 16 games they played. We are not halfway there yet...So chill your balls out! 😎
NOBODY huh? Except for maybe the inhabitants of Sacramento who kept showing up to games for the duration of that stint!
It’s been like 15 games. Last year the Bulls were the #1 seed in the East for, like, a month. How did they turn out again?
I’m a Kings fan, but I’m so tired of people jumping the gun and making sweeping statements about teams’ entire seasons when not even a quarter of the regular schedule has passed.
Oh btw Haliburton was also named a first time All-Star for the Pacers in 2023 ICYMI.
The kings should try to play together Holmes and sabonis. Fox sabonis Lyles Barnes Holmes.
Ton of credit to Mike Brown, he turned the Kings to the baby warriors. To think they started out 0-4 and also lost several close games. Could have easily been #1 seed.
I remember i used to argue to my friend a laker fan about Dfox is better than his lonzo back when they got drafted and im 100% right 🤷🏽♂
Nah. Not NOBODY. The message in the thumbnail for this video is not the truth. Not everyone. Not entire generation. Not never saw. Not nobody. /
started watching the NBA in 2008 and I've never seen the Kings in the playoffs. Every time a team I was rooting for lost to the Kings it felt like an insult
2:30 literally no one accused Fox of "being a ball hog"... idk where you came up with that...
