Bryce Simon joins Sam Vecenie and they break down the Sacramento Kings through 30 games. Why some Kings fans are starting to panic, and why they should slow down and know that the team is fine because Keegan Murray and De’Aaron Fox are taking huge leaps this season.

I don't think fans are jumping off a bridge or melting down. Issue is this, if they don't hit their 3s, they lose by 20.
We need Keeg to get a better post game. Once he gets comfortable down low and adds post moves to his game we might be ok. In college Keegan feasted in the post most dunks of any player his year drafted. Then he drifted out to 3pt line and forgot how to bang down low
Defense is atrocious tho. But I still believe🤣
Keegan hasn't had a string of two good games together. just do a little bit of research
The Kings are 18-12 after the win over the Hawks. The problem Kings fans have is their defense and how they lost the games they did. They cannot stop anyone to the cup and when they lose they lose by 20 points or more. Fans want to see some resiliency, fight, determination to overcome, intensity, and nastiness. Plus, they like to see Fox be more of a vocal leader.
I almost turned the channel when u ranked Golbert ahead of sabonis. That's blasphemy
We stayed through a 16 year playoff drought so a few losses aren’t going to do it.
The blowouts and HB and Huerter are concerning but I don’t think anyone expects this team to contend. It’s all part of the ride.
Appreciate the kings talk!
I've heard Matisse Thybulle's name mentioned to replace Barnes. Contract could be economical, and the defense would be improved greatly at the wing.
Don't forget the biggest step Keegan has made, he guards the toughest matchup on the opposing team EVERY NIGHT, dude has been a defensive stud, the numbers bear it out. The three he knows how to do, the defensive improvement has been unreal.
Dude
We r not freaking out.
Yet some reason he isn’t even in the top ten of mvp candidates whereas Tyrese is always in top 5. Can someone explain how Tyrese is so overhyped right now?
a national media guy, from who actually watches the kings? thank you for your accurate perspective that us in the cowbell kingdom have a hard time seeing
Let’s add a few things here. Not only did Fox miss close to one-third of the season but Keegan also missed 5+ games. Huerter shooting a career low. Their best bench piece Lyles has missed 20 games.
And with all that, Kings are still top 5 in the West. The important thing here is that they raised their ceiling. By Fox shooting 40% from 3. By Keegan being elite defensively while being a lockdown shooter. These are things that can get you over the hump in a game 7 playoff series. Kings are in absolute great shape
