Love from the Philippines!! Let's make the most of these Playoffs guys! Thank you Kings for getting me into basketball!!! 💜💜
Let's go fellow Kababayan! Playoffs na naman 💜🔥
Yo yo yo let’s go fellow pinoy kings fans!
As a little kid watching the early 2000s kings then watching almost 2 decades of terrible ball I’m so grateful for Mike brown, McNair n all the players for turning this team around so quickly I just want us to sustain it!!!
From Iowa very proud ofKeegan and Keegan’s family. Teaching Keegan great values in this crazy world.Teaching him to stay true to himself bringing blessing to the people that helped him along the way to success. Thanks to the Kings for choosing Keegan.I will be one of your biggest fan from IOWA.Go Kings
Keegan is good people
Was born in 2001. Have never watched a King's playoff game live or in person. My entire life as a fan for this team, growing up playing basketball and hating the lakers as everyone else seemed to love them, nothing means more to me than seeing this team go to the playoffs after so long. Love to see the love. This feeling is surreal.
I've been a fan since they came to town in 1985...it's time for another run of playoff success.
Same here
Matt, you were right. Monte was right. And I agreed with you both. Keegan is phenomenal. The coach is great. And we have two all-stars currently. The bench is good. And we have the best offense in the league. Light the beam. Go Sacramento Kings! Let's win this thing!
I Feel you Matt, 1 of Kings Fans here in the Philippines! Lets Go to Playoffs Kings!
Man, it made me tear up when Kayte was talking about the Kings while tearing up. I’m glad you and other people who have been around for the organization have finally got the chance to see this team succeed. I’ve been an active fan for the last 6 years, so I’ve had it easier than most people. But even those 6 years were some painful years to watch. I can’t wait to go to the first playoff game.
Same Honestly Fox was the one that made me full on Sac fan Because I was a huge Fan of his game and I’m glad he’s now our franchise Gaurd
Congratulations to all Sacramento Kings fans!!
I cried when my Seattle Mariners clinched last year and ended their playoff streak. So you know I cried for this!!!! I will always remember this day! #Lightthebeam #Beamteam #Sacramentoproud
Historic🎉 fan-tastic🎉 Sacremento Kings 🎉season
Tears of Joy for The Kings and 👑 #13 Keegan Murray breaking THE ROOKIE 3s MADE RECORD. Iowa Proud and a New Kings fan !!!!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉👑👑👑👑👑💖💜🤍🏀💯
LIGHT THAT BEAM
Been a Loyal Kings fan since they came to my home town Sactown...So proud of the whole team I'm looking forward to seeing the team taking us all the way and go out with a bang , meaning if this is Our last year with the king's😔
Light the Beam!! Keep it lit!
Go Kings all the way! 👑
Most important we stayed loyal through it all 🎉
We made it!!! I wasn't expecting it, but when there were about 2 minutes left in the game I started breaking down. The first Kings game I went to was in '94 against the Pacers in Arco Arena. I grew up watching Mitch Richmond. A lot of us were devasted when he was traded and we started the Webber era. But as soon as we started seeing Jason Williams balling out, we knew there was something special.
The '02 WCF still goes down as the worst betrayal from a league against a franchise. Even Lakers fans will admit that the Kings got robbed. Part of the pain of this 16-year drought is knowing what was stolen from the Kings, their fans, the city of Sacramento, and even all of Northern California. The Kings were so big in the early 2000's they even had fans around the world.
This feeling isn't just joy, but almost a feeling of exhaustion, like ending a nearly generation-long marathon. It reminds us of all the memories the Kings have brought us over the year, good and bad.
What an amazing turnaround! One year ago, the Kings were unwatchable and faith in the organization was sorely tested. Either Fox or Barnes dutifully showed up after the games for brutal post-game questions. Tonight in a sports miracle, the Boyz on the Beam have taken this team to the NBA playoffs. Hallelujah!
We finally made it to the Playoffs guys! Definitely has been an exciting journey, and can't wait to see the international Kings community (including me, a fan from Southeast Asia) during the postseason along with your coverage of the postseason Matt! 💜👑🏀🔥
It’s beyond surreal…I‘m from Taiwan, and as a mariners fan and kings fan at the same time, ultimate combination!!! being a Kings fan for nearly 24yrs, never have a chance to any live game, but I’m moved 100% by the genuine emotion behind every single words you said, we’ve been through a lot isn’t it😢
0 and 4 start...We are here, tears WOW!
I am still crying at times of happiness. So many times I wanted to move on. Give up. But I couldn’t, and this feeling is truly one of the best in my life.
I’m really happy for this team, very well deserved. I wish this team the best of luck, the Kings have been well overdue for a moment like this.
Matt, you're the best!! So glad to celebrate the success of our Kings with you!!
I was a senior in high School the last the time the kings went to the playoff. I'm happy that we are in the playoffs now. Let's go kings.
This year was for the lifers!! I have a Kings mural tattooed on my forearm and like many others I cried tears of joy last night. We deserve this
It's been so long finally 🗣️ GO KING'S 👑 SACRAMENTO Proud LIGHT THE BEAM
I had the same reaction Matt. I thought I would be way more energetic (jumping up and down and such), but I wasn't. It was more of a peaceful wave washing over and a sense of relief.
FINALLY! We are back!!! 🎉🎉
As a cleveland Cavaliers fan I love rooting for teams that are on the rise! Matt, when i watched the kings clinch last night I was reminded of your episode PUT SOME RESPECT ON THE SACREMENTO KINGS and sacremento has earned not only my respect but my fandom too! the Kings are my west coast NBA team and I can not wait for more games! LIGHT THE BEAM!
Sacramento Kings are awesome 👌
Such a crazy world right now. Joy isn’t common. I say ride that wave all the way!! I’m an Iowa Hawkeye fan. Iowa is my home and the Hawkeyes are our team. So I’m not a real Kings fan like you all. I’m just really happy for you.
Matt you don’t understand how happy I am for you, not just you but everybody who has been thru hell and back these 16 years including me and many others. Let’s celebrate but also know this is jus the beginning ! Light the beam baby 😈🔦🟣
I'm from Portugal and been a Kings fan since 2013, so everything I ever knew was playoff desert.
This moment is amazing and I hope one day I will get to see a Sac game in the Golden One Center.
I was drinking during the game and I ended up balling my eyes out last night 💀💀
I have lived in sac since i was 4 and been an honorary kings fan since then i would go to games casually with my family but not up until 2014/2015 did i really start to follow this team my best friend and i went to school and saw everyone who was anyone wearing warriors jerseys and we were like ??? what we have a team here in this city and since that day him and i have been dedicated for hard fans i remember being laughed at when i would say i was a kings fan and going into this season i told everyone watch out and here we are love this team forever 🟣🦁
I remember when L 🚆 in Arco....when Bobby flipped his 🚗.......Richmond eating at Strings.....it's a relief and hope
Those shared moments were just wonderful. Wow. Speechless.
OMG FIRST. Literally been waiting for this.
Simply epic!! feels like the Twilight Zone!!!
Let's goooo ! Finally man 🙏
I’m a Kings and Mariners fan. What a year. 🥹
Let me say...I am truly happy for the Kings fans. The organization, the players, the city and Kings fans all over the world.
I know Mariners fans were probably hoping the Kings drought would continue for one reason. So they wouldn't have the record for the longest playoff drought in history anymore.
For the next few days...soak it all in. Enjoy it. Cry. Be happy. Party. Celebrate. But, know...the real work begins now as well. As it is likely the Warriors in the first round and it will be a war. They are the defending Champs and will not be an easy team to beat on their home floor. Granted...they have played like crap on the road, so as long as the Kings protect home court advantage, should be okay.
Oh, and...1 more win...and I believe this team is the Pacific Division Champs as well. Obviously, 4 wins in the final 6 games...and they finish with 50 wins.
So...from 30-52 to a possible 50-32 record...that is one hell of a great turn around. It is possible they could win all six and make it a full flip of last seasons record. 52-30.
But...from someone who fell in love with the city and the team and became my second team and even though I don't live anywhere close anymore, I am very happy to see this.
There were a few years with DeMarcus Cousins and Rudy Gay where I thought...if this team can get that last piece of the puzzle....they could make the playoffs. I remember watching the games with Grant calling them and hearing the frustration in his voice. Knowing how good this team could be and should be. And it was like nothing brought them together. But that entire time...one also knew the love he had for the team and the city and fans. How excited we all were to keep the team in Sacramento. Of which...while Kevin Johnson might not have been a very good person...he deserves his props for helping to keep the team in Sacramento.
So cheers Sacramento. You deserve it.
Matt, I couldnt agree with you more. We have waited for so long. I am emotional like you.
Kings fan from Seattle. Matt, love your channel bro! Congrats to the Kings and the amazing Kings fans! Question though... what's the Kings magic number to win the Pacific Division? That needs to be noted too. Go Kings!
They should win it this year.
Lets Go Kings ! 👑
I was there when the kings eliminated the Utah Jazz which ended up being John Stocktons last game. ARCO Arena was lit and I can only imagine how Golden One Center is going to be.
After all these years !
Hi Matt, I have been enjoying listening to your podcast this year. I am a new fan this year, I never watched the NBA before but with Iowa having their first NBA starter in many many years, I decided I would watch the Kings. (I'm a Hawkeye fan from Iowa.) The first game I happened to watch was the Jazz vs Kings game in December where Huerter hit the 3. What a first game to watch!
And while I initially started watching for Keegan, I now love this whole team. They're so unselfish and work so well together and are fun to watch. Breaking the drought undoubtedly doesn't mean as much for me as it does for others, but I am very happy for the people of Sacramento (now fellow fans!) that they can celebrate this accomplishment. Keegan breaking the rookie 3's record alongside just made it that much sweeter.
Living in Iowa, you get to pretty much pick whichever pro sports team you want to watch and is your favorite, since we have no native teams. I'm now proud to say I'm a Kings fan for the NBA!
Congratulations!
Hope we get to join you in the playoffs!
Kudos to Kevin Johnson, who was the mayor at the time when the kings were in talks of relocation for coming up with a plan to keep the team from leaving and forcing the Maloof brothers to sell.
I truly believe it was fate to have a NBA all star as mayor. If anybody else was mayor during those years, there would be no Sacramento Kings.
Why were the Maloof Brothers forced to sell the team?
@@justmyopinion8395 Kevin Johnson is from Sacramento
The pride has returned, this will be fun but am keeping things in perspective. Just hoping they can at least get out the first round, but even if they get a first round exit there is nothing to feel bad about. This team is ascending and is just starting their arc.
Matty mcqueen really be on the road 😂😂 great pod. Keep on they necks. 🔥🔥🔥
Pull up to the d lo and kc watch party man 🎉
Thank you for being emotionally invested. Seeing you, kayte, dave emotional means as much to the fans as the team finding success. So thank you.
We’re about to meet … Playoff Matt !!
I was always there
The last kings game in arco in the playoffs vs the spurs at that game
The potential last game vs the clippers before we potentially got sold and moved I was there at the game
the last game at arco I was there
I was always there fighting along side this team
We’re all emotional Matt, trust me
Monte McNair will forever be a kings legend, he made the necessary moves to make this once crappy team into a future powerhouse in the west
Great video
Domas was born in Portland
kings fan
*I went to g1 after and partied! #lightthebeam *
I just realized how many weird/awkward Kings fans we have LOL 😂😂😂
*OMG LETS FU*N GO!!!!*
Glad the drought is over, sad one of the best TV announcers is not the one announcing the game.
Those who couldn’t wait and became warriors bandwagon fans. Please don’t come back to cheer for kings now. We don’t beed ya’ll to band wagon kings now that they made it to the playoffs even if it’s just this season. Ya’ll will be bashing them next season if they don’t do well like this season then go back to warriors.
🎉❤🎉❤😊🥳😎🥳🤓💝✌👍🙏🙆♀️😛🤩😍💃🕺💃🕺🤸♀️🫂❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤💖💗💝🥳🎉 Awesome Episode Matt!!! FANTASTIC JOB!!! Keep up the Phenomenal Job! Let's Go Kings!!! 🥰😁😇🥰🥸🥳💜🏀💜🏀💜🏀💜🎁🏅🏀🏆🎆🌆🌇🌞🌤🌠💝⚡🌟🌠🔥🛎🌃☂️🌌🌠🌟🌈😛🤩😍🥰😉🙃🤑😎🤠🤓🥳
they also have not won a playoff game since 2004
The Columbiana came out and yelped " . . . muy especial "
Should they go for 50 or rest the starters? I would like to see domas and fox get rest. Barnes also as the broadcast said he has played in every game so far.
How will De Aaron Matchup against Golden State
Pretty well
I’m sincerely happy to make the playoffs but,
“job’s not finished” - Kobe Bryant
Question …. Is sabonis better than Webber ??
LTMFB!!!!!!!!!
There's still a chance they can make one seed Denver's playing like crap five games left don't underestimate the passion to win
Jim Rome on the Kings: th-cam.com/video/xvm0001z6sk/w-d-xo.html
Sacramento is a fine team much more athletic than the Golden State Warriors end-of-course much younger but as a team there's no way as immature as they are that they're it's possible that they're going to play as well as Golden State will as a team it is now game five coming up and sabonis has not played well at all people from Sacramento say what's wrong with the bonus how come people are feeding them the ball like Mikhail like bird did to Mikhail like Dennis Johnson did the Mateo why aren't they feeding them down low how is he supposed to be involved when Fox is trying to score 50 in Burns his trying to get his they're focusing on themselves it's not quite a team ready for what's about to come sometimes you do have to learn the hard way
Just to lose in the first round of the playoffs
They have a good chance to advance if they meet the Wolves 🐺 again.
Congrats to the kings, Keegan, and the fans! 👑🟪🟪🟪🟪🟪
I’m so happy for us Kings fan. It’s been a tough stretch for us…and that’s an understatement. From the Here We Stay days, to going to a new arena, to multiple draft busts, multiple coaches, to the Demarcus trade, to the Haliburton trade, to getting treated like crap in the all star, to not making a big trade on deadline….I mean the roller coaster of emotions we all had to go through was crazy. There were times I kinda wanted to give up on this team but I never did. Didn’t even know if I was gonna see a good Kings team again in my lifetime lol. But we here now!!!! The beam is real.
I hope someone makes a sick ass compilation video
MATT THANK YOU AGAIN FOR THE BEST LOCKED ON COVERAGE AMONG ALL SPORTS!! And again, THANK YOU FOR GIVING KINGS FANS A VOICE!! #LIGHTTHEBEAM 🔦🟣
