Nothing brings me more satisfaction than for Kevin O'Connor to bring on basketball guests whose fanbases he has ridiculed to the utmost degree of petty haterism. But again, that's what makes him a good journalist because he doesn't shy away from being wrong when it is warranted. and the dude knows his basketball.
The KOC impossible challenge: compliment Sabonis' game without mentioning his flaws. Does he do this with other players? Does he always go out of his way to mention that Jaylen Brown can't dribble with his left hand when talking about the Celts? Does he make sure to tag the end of every single Luka praise with pointing out how embarrassing his defense is? It's like he can't ever say something good about Sabonis and just leave it at that. He always always always has to throw in a subtle or not so subtle dig: "he's a good player; he's a great player SOMETIMES". Nice backhand. Technically every great player is only great sometimes, Jaylen and Luka have plenty of off games -- but do we go out of the way to state that fact about those players, though? Sabonis is the most consistent never-takes-plays-off players in the league. A double-double (and triple-double) machine who's going to lead the league in rebounding for the third year in a row. But oh wait, since he had one bad playoff series (while playing with a broken thumb), the vast majority of national nba talking heads talk about him like he's lucky to be in the starting line up on an NBA team.
KOC still so smug. Thinks he’s some sort of genius for saying Sabonis isn’t perfect at everything. I really liked Morgan’s point that EVERY PLAYER has a weakness and he doesn’t feel the need to constantly point those out.
It’s crazy that they can’t even say it was an even trade at the very least… I think the Kings won the trade strictly on how often Haliburton is injured…
Kings fan. His first full year he was an all star. His second year he was all NBA. He's led the league in both of his years on the Kings and is leading the league again in rebounding. He was also top ten in assists last year.
KOC, you are not one of the only negative voices for the Kings. You are one of MANY, and that's why we hate it so much. It's just constant ragging on us without any love at all.
Ngl KOC seems hella likeable but for the love of me when he tweets it’s like he has a hate criticism towards the kings like just say something positive non critical and the fandom will back off you
I don't remember Kevin saying anything that was that far off base about Sacramento. If he thought we should keep Mike Brown then that is very far off base but everyone in Sacramento media also thought that
@@michaelfredgren1342the problem is finding a quality role player like him. It's very hard for them to attract free agents. The only other way is drafting and trades
Their problem is the shooters are so inconsistent, Keegan Murray is so inconsistent aswell and Huerter, they'll be alright if they have a knockdown shooter like Gary Matthews or AJ Green
wild statement. Mitchell, SGA, and Tatum all have significantly better rosters than Jokic. When the second best player on your team this year is a past prime Russell Westbrook, your roster is flawed.
@@michaelfredgren1342Lyle’s averages 7 and 5 39fg% 36 3p% 76ft% .6steals and .5 blks Collins averages 18 and 8 on 52/43/86 splits with 1.1 steals and .9 blks Sounds like he adds a lot more quality are you blind or what?
@mikelike3877 so all you have said is that Collins does the exact same things as Lyles only slightly better. Not sure that the difference will equate to more than 1 or 2 more regular season wins for the Kings with Collins playing Lyles's minutes. Yea, one should reduce John Collins states by 1/3rd, considering Lyles plays less minutes per game. And to match Collins's salary in a trade will cost Huerter + Lyles and GM Danny Ainge is going to want AT LEAST a future unprotected first included. Is that "worth" and Additional 1-2 wins in the regular season? Considering the FO's track record with drafting players, I would rather keep the future first.
@@michaelfredgren1342 I wouldnt trade Lyles for him. If you're able to add him it would be a good pickup. Ainge isn't going to ask for multiple first round picks, lol. Atlanta wanted to get rid of Collins for years. The Jazz traded two second picks to acquire him
They could still be a very good team if they trade Fox and it’s not a dig. Fox is a great player but… Nobody puts Malik in a corner. He is rising right before our eyes. When you factor in trade value and the upcoming massive extension, the best path to long term success is clear.
@@PT209CA then you clearly don't watch a whole fun. We definitely have some fun in the beginning of a pod after a win and then we deep dive the game. It's basketball--it's fun. We're going to have fun talking about it
Have some respect Chilena. Also maybe you should try doing some Kings content on your channel. I bet if you made a video on Domas's 28 rebound game vs Boston, it would get more than the 15 views you got on that Jalen Williams vid....
LIGHT THE BEAAAAAM
Great job yall calling Kev out to his face. Also KOC for giving our team a real look.
big purple beam!
Absolutely loved that you called him out for his BS. The guy never gives the Kings any credit when they do well.
@@silyounthe hit song sweepin the basketball universe
Yessirrr
Sabonis is top 10 in MVP ladder every year since traded to Sacramento. And the physicality he plays with is 2nd to none.

But again, that's what makes him a good journalist because he doesn't shy away from being wrong when it is warranted. and the dude knows his basketball.
Ask him about Kylian Hayes, he says away from it plenty
Oh shit, they’re bout to tell you what they know.
Hahaha

Agree 100%. KOC knocking a player in the top 10 MVP ladder (3 years in a row) isn’t a good look for him
Domas has recorded a double-double in 36/38 games he's played this season.
Sacramento vs Everybody
KOC still so smug. Thinks he’s some sort of genius for saying Sabonis isn’t perfect at everything. I really liked Morgan’s point that EVERY PLAYER has a weakness and he doesn’t feel the need to constantly point those out.
Deuce and Mo... best duo!
Thank you, Serge!
Props to KOC for owning it and letting DnM gloat a bit 😂
Pacers fans swear they fleeced us. 😂😂😂
It’s crazy that they can’t even say it was an even trade at the very least… I think the Kings won the trade strictly on how often Haliburton is injured…
@@SkinnyChalk one of the closest to an even trade as you can get and they can’t get can admit that part.
Kings fan. His first full year he was an all star. His second year he was all NBA. He's led the league in both of his years on the Kings and is leading the league again in rebounding. He was also top ten in assists last year.
I have a very close friend I argue with constantly, because he says “Sabonis sucks,” and “I hate Sabonis.” He’s just like KOC. And he’s a Kings fan!
Let him know he's a 3 time all star and led the league the last two years in rebounds and top ten in assists.
It’s literally us against the world
KOC, you are not one of the only negative voices for the Kings. You are one of MANY, and that's why we hate it so much. It's just constant ragging on us without any love at all.
KOC BENDS THE KNEE! Light the beam KOC 🟪🟪🟪🟪🟪🟪
🔦🟣 LIGHT THAT 🗣️🗣️🗣️
I hope the Kings replacing Mike Brown with Doug Christie is like the Warriors replacing Mark Jackson with Steve Kerr.
Talk to him Deuce & Mo 🗣️
Ngl KOC seems hella likeable but for the love of me when he tweets it’s like he has a hate criticism towards the kings like just say something positive non critical and the fandom will back off you
Deuce and Mo… Deuce and Mo… Deuce and Mo….THE PODCAST THAT YOU KNOW!
His name is Doug Lasso Christie. Crazy no one knew that.
yessss
Devin Carter is like a younger version of Josh Hart. That's my opinion
Derek White too.
lack of a reliable jumper is so funny LOLLLLLLLLLL bruh
Thank you, Deuce and Mo!! Let's go, Kings!!
Fox doesn’t have a consistent jumper lol what is this years ago
I thought the same exact thing when he said that 😂
Was wondering if he meant the 3? We know that middy is legit
Fox has been streaky from 3 this year so I bet you he means 3P shooting
NBA players can be taught, and held accountable, but they do not need to be punished...
Light the beam!
Kings fans really hate KOC 😭
You know what I realized, Sacramento and in turn Domas is to KOC what LeBron is to Skip Bayless
Get him Deuce. KOC is a couch quarterback. 👎
mo!
I don't remember Kevin saying anything that was that far off base about Sacramento. If he thought we should keep Mike Brown then that is very far off base but everyone in Sacramento media also thought that
"Sabonis looks like an all nba". Hes a 3 time all star, and has been all nba twice.
Kevin O’skillz
Honestly if we can get kuzma for the low low, why not give it a try, cant be worse than huerter this season
The only team that MIGHT give up 2 firsts for Cam Johnson is OKC.
Sac 1st are much more valuable than OKCs
@JustinQuarles which is why we shouldn't give them away for bench/role players.

KOC must be sick to his stomach. He's downing Pepto Bismol by the liter.
Bring on Matt George
Jokic propaganda is disgusting while MITCHELL, SGA & TATUM are leading their teams to the best records in the league
wild statement. Mitchell, SGA, and Tatum all have significantly better rosters than Jokic. When the second best player on your team this year is a past prime Russell Westbrook, your roster is flawed.
gotta try and get john collins!
What does John Collins bring that Trey Lyles doesn't bring to the team?
@@michaelfredgren1342Lyle’s averages 7 and 5 39fg% 36 3p% 76ft% .6steals and .5 blks

Maybe he meant from 3? Midrange is niiiice
Eat crow
Definitely not “still a good team” if they trade Fox lol and does Domas even want to stick around at that point. Or DeMar.
Think the Kings beating the Celtics, resoundingly, without Foxey, and coming back against the Heat, refutes your conjecture.
@@nelsonanthoine6293 I agree with you
They could still be a very good team if they trade Fox and it’s not a dig. Fox is a great player but…
