Turns out Monte isn't good at building rosters smh we've needed wing depth since 2022 & I've been complaining but people just kept telling me nah we good let Monte cook what's he been cooking burnt toast & spam smh at this point a trade is not gonna save us we have no assets that people actually want hell keegan has lost a lot of value he should have been moved last year I called for it but nah here we are sorry as hell smh
I hear James that firing the coach doesn’t always work but sometimes it does. The warriors fired their coach and made the championship the next year. Of course they had Steph and klay but still lol
The problem with the Kings, is that people don't want to admit the flaws and weaknesses of certain players.. Everyone keeps looking at the "numbers", the "analytics".. But numbers aren't people.. People have souls, attitudes, personalities.. And it's there, that the problems lie.. Number one.. Fox is not a star.. Fox scores a lot of points.. Stars LEAD!! They lead by example.. They make the plays you need, when they are needed.. They stop other teams runs.. They start your teams runs.. They motivate others.. He is NONE of those things.. He said so on Draymond's podcast!! He's waiting to see if the team is ever going to bring in someone to LEAD them to winning.. Because in almost a decade, he hasn't done it!! He's soft.. Quiet.. Unself motivating!! Even his coach has said that.. But people like him (because he's a nice beta).. He scores a lot (just not the points you need), and he makes a lot of money (over paid).. So apparently those things make him a star.. He'd get lost on another team.. He would not be the guy anywhere else.. Maybe a number two, but not the leader.. We keep wanting him to be someone he isn't!! Number two.. Keegan.. I'm a huge Keegan fan, but he's also soft.. Beta.. Skilled, but not aggressive.. Always deferring.. Too nice.. Yet he's untouchable in trade talks.. Because we don't want him to go somewhere else and blossom - a big Sacramento problem.. We hold on to people that don't make us winners, because we don't want them to go somewhere else and win!! Which brings me to number three.. Mike Brown does not seem to be able to motivate.. Does he have high basketball IQ, yes.. Does he know what needs to be done?? Yes.. Can he get them to do it?? Apparently not.. Now, to his defense, Fox is never going to be a leader, and Keegan isn't going to be aggressive.. It's not who they are.. So, maybe it's number four.. Number four, refusal to change!! The goal of a team is to get better!! We don't do that.. McNair doesn't make changes.. Did it once, getting us Sabonis (who is a true core piece), then he stopped.. Waiting for magic to happen.. Refusing to do what needs to be done.. For example, we desperately need a star wing.. What did we draft?? Another guard.. That seems to be all he can draft, guards.. We need wings right now.. And players with Malik Monk's playing mentality and attitude.. These are all things that "analytics" won't tell you.. But they are the reasons this team loses.. But we'll win a couple of games, hit .500 and the numbers will say the team is, OK..
Fox on the draymond podcast just trashed all of his current teammates and spit in the face of his teammate, sabonis, because the LEADER/FRANCHISE PLAYER was hanging and LAUGHING with the enemy/rival team. Fox has always been the PROBLEM.
There is a silver lining just waiting to break thorough the clouds. We need to keep the core together, but we need to address the bench, length and more contributors.
Yall saw the FAKE TEAM CULTURE MOMENT of the fox's teammates singing happy birthday to him. Hella awkward because he TRASHED his teammates 3 days earlier on the draymond podcast 🤮🦊
People on here talking “beta” or “alpha” personality’s and “soft …what a bunch of crap …these guys are all professional basketball players…I doubt they’re “soft” ….shit roster construction and a complete lack of a bench are what’s killing this team
If you brought a coach in here that treated fox like he was Shai And ran the offense through him. Things would get better end of discussion I don't care what stupid narrative you try to spin Thiss dumb DHO offense does not take advantage of the superstar speed demon Point guard you have. Not to mention this terrible middle hedge defense We all know the only reason Mike still has a job is because of PR nightmare that people like you in the media world create if they had to pull the trigger and fire this clown.
Problem is sga is naturally a more aggressive player, fox has always had an issue with when he wants to show up and when he doesn't. Shai is going to get his shots up regardless what anybody says, fox can be super passive allot of nights, that's a personality thing. Think sga and other stars come out and want to kill everybody on a nightly basis, I don't see that in fox enough
@iillestrs2153 The offense is catered and built around him that's why he looks aggressive to you. Look what happened to 2 games that the offense was catered and built around the Fox He's scored 60 and 49
@@brianmorton963 fox has had this issue the entire time, your argument is flawed. Mike has begged him to be aggressive, there's never a time he's going to get yelled at if he tells everyone off and takes over or decides to be aggressive, but it's a known frustration with Fox that everyone knows he can turn it on when he wants to, but he will just mosey around or looks disinterested, no matter the year, no matter the coach. Fox has always been frustrating to an extent because he doesn't have that kill mentality, he plays much like his personality, mellow and he doesn't seem to care at points. Idk how many times I have felt like Fox doesn't care to even play on certain nights. I'd bet my house you bring sga over he's calling sets off or out of the dho he's making a play, you act like the dho doesn't get the ball into a playmakers hand lol this argument makes zero sense. You could put Kobe or any aggressive player in this offense and they are going to be in kill mode everytime and every night. Fox has never shown that, he leaves you wondering why he can't figure out how to do it nightly and it's been that way basically his entire pro career
@@brianmorton963 so fox has only played without sabonis and without dho's those two nights? They still ran dho's both those nights... you do realize that, correct?
Demar was Month's big move. But his fit on the Kings was questioned by many.
It was not the correct move. We have unhappy players here.
I think when Demar got here he was thinking playoffs now I think Demar is just collecting a paycheck .... this was a great show guys ..
Turns out Monte isn't good at building rosters smh we've needed wing depth since 2022 & I've been complaining but people just kept telling me nah we good let Monte cook what's he been cooking burnt toast & spam smh at this point a trade is not gonna save us we have no assets that people actually want hell keegan has lost a lot of value he should have been moved last year I called for it but nah here we are sorry as hell smh
I hear James that firing the coach doesn’t always work but sometimes it does. The warriors fired their coach and made the championship the next year. Of course they had Steph and klay but still lol
The whole issue with this thinking we’re going to get better with a trade.. we have no leverage on a trade for viable talent when we’re on a slide
James should acknowledge that those advocating for Mike B to get extended now have egg on their face, including him
Go ahead and look at Knecht’s stats in December before you cry about not drafting him

Once again james ham you leave out context.
All those other coaches that got fired had s***** teams. This team is full jam packed with talent
Guard talent. No wings
@oliverf1729 cool 👍
Get more players then
Have fun
@@oliverf1729 we didn’t have wing depth either when we made the playoffs. No excuses for why the kings are 12th in the west
James Ham is the most embarrassing Yes Man I have seen, quite possibly
@@tonye2920 yep your right.
More help is the issue solution
👍

Fox and his hobbits can't spoil his b day Saturday. ⁉️ 😮
Need to trade fox. He don’t play defense and ball hogging
James Ham 🤮
pls trade keegan, huerter, lyles and fire brown
Defense is still a big need, if Keegan was not an impact defender I would say move him, he IS an impact defender!
If you brought a coach in here that treated fox like he was Shai And ran the offense through him. Things would get better end of discussion I don't care what stupid narrative you try to spin
