I have them getting the 4 seed this season. Their star players are just not gonna miss games and that's huge in the regular season. 76ers video please 🙏
Same, as a Kings fan I would like to think as high as third is possible depending on injuries to the better west teams and our health, but 4-5th is most likely. and can 100% make some noise in the post. Rooting for your Sixers, Maxey was so fun last playoffs but I root for them every year in the east, Joel deserves health and success for sure damn (love PG13 too what an addition)
@@Weather_Nerd I don't think Minnesota, Dallas and Denver will all be healthy next season. I'm not praying for injuries but all those teams have injury prone players. Kat, Kyrie, Jamal Murray are all important parts of their respective teams. If they get injured their teams are obviously winning less games. Meanwhile the Kings have 2 star players that played 79+ games and De'aaron also played 74. If one of those teams doesn't stay healthy I can easily see the Kings snatching that top 4 seed away from them.
@@Weather_Nerd Y'all need a backup big though imo. Idk where you'll get that but please get a better backup center. I don't want to see what's happening with the 76ers all the time happen to the Kings too haha. When Embiid is on the floor we destroy teams but when he sits down to rest we get destroyed. Thankfully we have Drummond now who's probably the best backup big in the NBA.
@@CarnagexSena you’re jinxing your team by saying this over and over. You’re basically counting on players like Kyrie, Jamal Murray and Kat to get injured so the kings can knock them off the top seeds. That’s so weird. Might as well just say the kings aren’t good enough to get there on their own unless top players in the west go down.
@@Velveteenvision OK bruh. When other people are doing this to the 76ers saying "The 76ers aren't going to be healthy because Embiid and PG are injury prone so they're going to finish low in the standings" it's all good but when I do it it's bad?? Come on bruh. I don't think I even said anything bad, you're just overreacting. I'm not even wishing for injuries
Kings only had 2 players that when they needed a basket they can go get it in monk and fox. When monk went down they had the same record as Dallas. After that they fell because they didn’t have another scorer now u have derozan.
Facts. The average NBA fan believes it was the defense that killed the Kings in the round 1 Warriors series 2023 and the Kings regular season, last season (23-24). From my perspective, watching every Kings game, it was honestly their Offense that was their downfall last season AND their round 1 loss against the Warriors the season prior. To add to that, the Kings actually played well against the top West teams in the 23-24 season (aside from the Pelicans who absolutely destroyed us 6x). Kings dropped so many games against the lottery teams. I'm not making excuses. The Kings didn't bring it every night.
@@LivinProoof Agreed. He hits open 3s at a high clip, can playmake a bit, but he and Fox are literally elite as a defensive duo in the backcourt. I mean, I can see a world Huerter gets that job back but you know coach is swapping Keon immediately if his D isn't up to snuff
@@jalynjones9136 typical. You only say that because that’s all you’ve seen in sac. How do you know he’s best suited for that? How do you know he’s not better as a starter? You don’t. His numbers as a starter either LA are way better than coming off the bench. His numbers will 30 + min jump tremendously. You’re assuming. Monk starting will take the kings to a new level. The kings are handicapping their selves by doing this
@@rickynolan5154he’s bad on defense which isn’t good especially since Sabonis is ur center. We’ve seen it with Huerter. That’s also 4 ball dominant players in the starting lineup, it’s best if Keon Ellis starts.
As a Kings fan im not gonna say they are gonna go deep in the playoffs or anything but this team is clearly built for the regular szn. They are gonna win a shit ton of games - they have 3 “stars” who play every night and try their ass off and all clearly learned the lessons of last year.
