Yep. All that speculation that we signed Okogie in case we had to trade Mikal looking pretty spot on right now :lol:

Must win game awaits us... In front of KD I guess our boys will try to show what they are capable of..so Booker with 40 something points Ayton with 20 boards and CP3 with 15 assists
The sentiment was correct. They all showed off for KD.

One of these centers looked more like an all-star than the other.
Sabonis did have 24/15/7…not a bad game…but yes I’d give this one to Ayton. League is in a lot of trouble if we get this Ayton and this Okogie every night.
Sabonis was still very good as a hub, but today was edge Ayton.

Booker with zero 3 point attempts. He doesn't want to pass Nash? :lol:

It's not the Suns account so I don't mind as much, but I really appreciate how the Kings don't do a lot of talking. They don't deserve slander like the Timberwolves or Grizzlies,

The Kings are a real playoff team, but they'll need to figure somethings out because they rely way too much on streaky 3-point shooting. It'll be fun to see how far Fox can carry them this year as long as it's not against the Suns.

I don't know why it's taken this long, but I'm ecstatic that Ayton is finally dunking the ball from the drive and dump off passes. He'll inevitably get more foul calls if he keeps doing it because teams will start hacking him in the playoffs.

They also can't stop anyone in the paint, Suns lived there all night. Nuggets, Suns, Mavs gonna eat them up in the playoffs.

I've never seen Durant smile so much.
He loves Booker. I remember when they invited Book to practice with team USA & after practice Book & Durant would just 1v1 each other practicing ISO moves. Should be video somewhere of it.

They should kiss already. It’s the day to do it after all.

Kings are a fun story and I’m happy for their fans especially as it’s been a long time since they had a good team to cheer for, but they’re the first round opponent everyone will want to face in the west. They can score, but they don’t stand a chance defensively. We’d do to them what we did to Denver in 2021

Everyone outside of TJ/Craig/Okogie were a combined 1-14 from three.

And we still scored 120.

Without KD.

Nah, those were Cam Thomas' Nets. KD wasn't even on the bench for that game.

Well those are probably the 3(with Payne and Ross) that are gonna get the most shots when we’re fully healthy, so that’s a good thing.

Also the only other one we hit then was that shot clock beating heave by CP3
