Refs were trying so hard at the end to take points from the Kings. “Reviewing a 3 pointer” 5 minutes AFTER the play but failed.
Then calling techs for no reason and fake fouls to foul out players who were decimating the Grizzlies, to help them and give them a chance to win.
But the Grizzlies were fouling constantly and flagrant fouls with no calls.
NBA is pathetic. Didn’t even attempt to hide how hard they rig games against the Kings. Grizzlies STILL lost with the refs trying to force them the win.

you know they get away with it because they know fans are in full support of their fraud, the nba can do anything they want knowing they will not lose their fans.

I swear half the players in this league have had their career night vs the Kings.
And it seems that way for the past decade and a half. Nothing new.

I really like how they’ve integrated more views of defensive plays, along with how Sabonis got injured. Much much more interesting than just watching 10 mins of made baskets.

Yessir! Ja’s got that explosive athleticism and creativity that makes him a highlight reel every game. His ability to score and assist really keeps defenses on their toes.

Why cant they make good passes to eady , Brandon Clarke not cutting it , should have played huff he always brings a spark and we have done better when Stevens plays instead of konchar, i don’t understand coach Jenkins at all his whole system is messed up. We will not do much in playoffs and Jenkins is main reason, plus we got worse at trade deadline bane scored 48 but plus minus was 0 obviously bad defense thats only way you have 0 positive impact with 48 points and definitely bad rotation decisions again by Jenkins

The Kings knocked down almost every single shot they took in nearly all 4 quarters. Guys constantly passed the ball around, Derozan and Lavine had great court vision👀 and Devin Carter immediately came in helping the secondary unit💪. It sucks that Sabonis keeps getting hurt but when he was in you could easily tell how good of a flow their was with this Kings franchise. On a night where Morant missed out on the action, LaRavia for Sacramento really became a primary star.
The things that Jake and Malik Monk did were very special against the Memphis Grizzlies.
Overall I’m giving the dunk by LaRavia a 49 out of 50 based on power and authority. The way the player threw it down was a great moment for all the true fans. Round of applause to Desmond Bane of Memphis too. He carried the team almost all by himself. If the Kings manage to score more points in every quarter, than their opponents it could honestly lead to key victories. Harder to do on the road but when you have these many good shooters at home like the Kings do, all things are possible. Zach and Demar are the two best passers Kings got. And seeing Keegan Murray’s shooting become a difference maker at times, takes off a lot of pressure. Way to go Keegan. Very impressed. Monk has no weaknesses either because the way he finishes and has eyes lasered 🏀towards teammates he’s becoming the true point guard of the team.

What bad coaching U got a 7’4 guy at 270. At center. He should be your focal point guy. Like Kareem, Abdul-Jabbar, Wilt, Chamberlain, Shaq, etc..
