These refs suck but we aren’t playing any defense…just letting the kings go straight to the rim

There have been a few bad calls just now, but if you are Monte Morris you need to know your place in this league and cannot be forcing shots to prove a point to the refs... come on.

Also... I don't know if it's legs but Okogie can't be the only one that cares about getting back on D...

So is this the smallest lineup we've ever put out there?

I don't mind this loss so terribly to be honest, but the young guys who are getting an opportunity, I wish they could show a bit more... Tyty was pretty good, but the other rookies haven't looked great.

When you can't make many baskets and you can't stop the other team from making them your chances of winning are greatly diminished.

Even 19 offensive rebounds couldn't make it competitive.

Gonna be a tough 2 weeks. Especially if we are gonna be missing Beal for a chunk of it.

Booker needs to step up and play at a high level every night (or close to it).

Can’t survive uniformly bad shooting from all of your starting 5.
And we wasted a career game from Josh Okogie!!

Tough game to finally log back into. Net to. Sucks Sac was shooting lights out.

Liked the spark that Ty Ty brought. Definitely didn't think much of him when acquired. Good for him.

Was hoping to see a more aggressive Bol with 6 mins of playing time. Seems like he was just passing and running up until thzt final minute. You'd want him to be a little hungrier by this point in his career.

I get it but it’s going tough, teams are literally going to throw 2-3 guys at him every night, like the kings did tonight. The other starters are going to have to step up, namely Tyus and Nurk.

People coddle Booker like he's the only player that gets double teams thrown his way.

So he's the only lead dog that opposing teams key in on?

Come on. He needs to be averaging 25 ppg without a doubt.

I’m not saying he doesn’t need to play his best but he’s not super human. Nobody is going have a good game when you got doubles and triples draped over your nuts. Others need to step up and make the defense pay when that shit happens. Otherwise you’re in for a long night.

Not a very enjoyable game to watch. Nice that they brought it back to tie it or take the lead a few times, but we just didn't have the horses. Book tried to carry the load but Sac threw their whole defense at him. Nice game for Okogie who looked great in both ends of the floor. I really like the defensive lineup where we play all of Okogie, Dunn, and Royce. But otherwise this was a stinker. Nurk sucked, Tyus Jones was quiet, too many hanky broken plays on offense and too many guys getting to the hoop for layups or getting open 3s on the other end. Flush this one and move on.
