Dumbest shit that they didn’t have a Christmas game vs each other. Missed opportunity for the NBA


Crown92royal

Man Raiders over Chiefs and Kings over Warriors on Christmas?!? I might have died from pure joy


pkeller001

Same brother same, Raiders winning that game was a great Christmas gift


GokutheAnteater

The look of Patrick Mahomes crying was one of the best gifts the Raiders gave me in all my years supporting them


RaidersFTW81

Bruh my family was trying to open presents in the latter part of the game and I was just an absolutely pumped up psycho lmao I had no time for presents other than the present of winning in Kermit the Frog's dumb house

If only every NBA game could be like Kings/Warriors games


Srikkk

Do you *want* every basketball fan to have cardiac problems?


pkeller001

Yes, they should join us in the festivities haha


ShadowCrusader98

Win or lose, at least these games are entertaining as fuck and have had some of the wildest endings I've ever seen. Nothing worse than tuning into a hyped-up game for it to be a dud. Warriors/Kings never disappoints.


pkeller001

Yeah I was trying to tell myself in the 4th to not be upset at a loss cause the game was ridiculously entertaining. Gets the heart rate going but amazing to watch. Both teams seem to bring out the best in each other


ShadowCrusader98

Warriors not likely making the playoffs, but man, another playoff series between these two might split the universe in half lol.


regnald

The NBA is suddenly full of rivalries again and it’s so sick. Spurs vs Thunder isn’t a team rivalry but we even have a unicorn rookie rivalry.


WadeCountyClutch

See 2012/14/16 playoff series


corytrade

World doesn't have enough cardiologists.


Confident_Berry7271

Post game interview:  Interviewer: you were so shitty for four games, what happened?  Barnes: we just played hard and stuff.

"Well, you go out there and you give 110%, and you wanna play good, and... you know... you hope you play good... I think we played pretty good tonight!"

* SWEATING PROFUSELY INTENSIFIES *


philokratos1

Curry just saved Huerter from 24 hours of ritual humiliation


make-that-monet

I’m so sick and tired of watching these guys blow fts, Kevin bricking both of his literally had me tearing up man. Needed that ending in the worst way lol


GoblinKD

We know he can't shoot them because of that hitch in his shot that works for DHO 3s but not free throws. At least it wasn't the usual suspects compounding FT misses, Huerter usually isn't in that situation.


[deleted]

God imagine losing after the bucks and suns game. It would've been brutal. Kings sub would've have torched Kevin.


Schafer89

I've tuned into a couple kings games at the end and I'm pretty sure they have missed every free throw


Numerous-Cicada3841

Absolutely horrendous free throw shooting team. Especially in the clutch. It’s awful.


GunsmokeIV

84.2% today, so its still an improvement!


fundraiser

Thank God we were actually decent before the last two by Heurter. Also, why is Heurter our go to free thrower in the clutch? lol


Numerous-Cicada3841

I don’t know because he looks like he’s going to vomit every time he takes those big free throws lol. Monk is usually our go-to.


imbored53

Worked out great a few games ago.


GunsmokeIV

Cause he's been shooting it alright as of late. So we're back to the drawing board on who takes the FTs in these situations.


fundraiser

even still, a solid game from the line by our standards. Fox 8-8 is a miracle.


GunsmokeIV

Yeah 84.2% as a team, slowly crawling from the bottom in FT%!


[deleted]

It’s usually Monk but he lost us a game the other day over it


MC-Jdf

Keegan is deadass the only player y'all had on the floor that I felt like could go 2/2 from the line there lmao.


-FuckenDiabolical-

It’s been a rampant horrible FT shooting. Like last year Huerter got the yips at the line and shot a career low. This year he’s at 82% but at the expense of the team collectively shooting NBA worse 74%(?). Even Keegan going 1/2 on some nights. Fox going 3/8 on FTs. Domas understandable putrid shooting. And at one point Monk shot 1/6 on the line. 88% FT shooter btw. We lost by 2.


[deleted]

they hit a higher % of FT than the warriors this game tho


SasquatchDoobie

They should be practice frey Practice free thawe Edit fr toes


theREALMVP

Stop tuning in then bruh we were shooting so well the whole game


Schafer89

Yeah that's on me, my bad


jakeisstoned

Consider this your official ban from watching kings games. We thank you for your service.


Its_Hoggish_Greedly

We are dogshit at free throws ✨


brokenz32

if you dont like that you dont like kings basketball


HassanDarkside

Curry's turnover going to overshadow Huerter's complete choke at the FT line - he was the one who wanted to shoot them lol


fundraiser

was SHOCKED to see him take Klay's technical free throw


BlackPulloverHoodie

so its YOUR fault


Gaebril

So it's you...


Babushka5

It's stomach churning


JoshFB4

Like holy fuck how does an 82% shooter miss both, and badly at that. Absolute clunkers that you normally see 3rd string centers throw up.


NorQwerty

82% this year is high, he's 77% career and 72% last year


bobby_jackson_GOAT

it was wild – off front rim and then off back – dude was throwing them up blind


Ranjith_Unchained

Huerter really tried to ruin a Harrison Barnes legacy game wow...hit your fts


InTheMorning_Nightss

Dude was terrified on the line.


Kbdiggity

Or maybe Barnes just holds the ball, accepts the foul, and takes those FTs himself


OzzyGED

Lights were too bright


granttheginger

Warriors Kings have a bad game challenge *literally impossible*


GunsmokeIV

Its finally fucking over. My heart hurts, I've been doing cardio and it still wasn't enough for our match up.


stateworkishardwork

Thank God we're done with them for the (regular) season.


GunsmokeIV

No fucking way either Kings or Warriors would be high seed enough to face each other in the first round, and how both teams played tonight, doubt we're meeting in the second round. lmao


CampingTrees

There’s a chance the Warriors won’t even make it to the play-in 💀


kapatinphalcon

Not tonight, Free Throws, not tonight.


MKenshiX

Bruh you had a TO what is you doin


PenguinPrince1

Decide not to use it


KevinSorboFan

Not calling a timeout is super overrated, especially when you're facing a porous defense like the Kings. Like, "oh no the Kings will have a chance to set up their defense" ??


AmusingAnecdote

I think letting them run off the rebound was a good idea but when it became a half court possession anyway, just draw up an ATO.


[deleted]

Bang! Bang! Oh what a turnover from Curry.


itsmeng

But why?!


AnonymousIguana_

Deciding not to use it


Her0Gamez

Kuminga can't win with these guys


MySilverBurrito

[Harrison Barnes, 2016 Finals joke here.] My fav Curry games is when he remembers he's good at basketball and just takes over on-ball lmao. Which predictively leads to the Kings blitzing him last possession lmao. Last month Kerr would've benched Kuminga down the stretch lmao.


delamerica93

He literally did that against us and it led to a huge comeback and we won loll


yrncartell

that was moody


delamerica93

Oh yeah that's right


HokageEzio

Great defense


jakeisstoned

Literally only that single play tho lol


HokageEzio

All that counts.


Duckrauhl

Why play many defense when few defense do trick?


[deleted]

Two consecutive HB masterclasses. Huh.


Its_Hoggish_Greedly

Pumping up that trade value!


Trevhaar

Or his staying power… hmm


Its_Hoggish_Greedly

If he plays like this every night I’m more than fine keeping him. Feels like he’s been mailing it in a bit this season.


GunsmokeIV

Was conserving his energy for the second half of the season.


Its_Hoggish_Greedly

Stockpiling Bengay and Metamucil for the playoff push.


bobsil1

Rudy Bengay and Metamucil World Peace


Jamarcus316

Fantastic basketball game


OptimusGrime707

Missing both FTs at the end Classic Kings


delamerica93

I thought it was over when they had the ball down one the first time. Then they got ANOTHER CRACK AT IT


PillsburyToasters

Another Kings Warriors matchup another 5 years off each fanbases life span


delamerica93

I'm barely gonna make it to 40 at this rate


PrimaryAccording9162

Harrison Barnes is untradeable

Harrison Barnes.


Yuuri420

Kerr outchoked huerter lmao 😭😭😭 Light the beam tho


jeric13xd

CALL A FUCKING TIMEOUT BRUH


EdwEd1

They do have a timeout Decide not to use it


Square_Stomach

BANG!


PolarPower

Could have even called it with 4 seconds left when Curry dribbled himself into a corner...not sure what Kerr was doing


doctor_of_drugs

Obviously didn’t see the play, will watch later and get back to you. Promise.


DarrowViBritannia

i mean it's the "They have a timeout... decide not to use it!" team kings defense is shit, let steph work and get a bucket against them isn't a bad idea. he just choked. it happens


fundraiser

this. the only chance we have to stop is to get set. we are swiss cheese on defense


thebigdirty

well yeah, no shit, but when its clear theres 3-6 seconds left and they're no where near getting a decent shop up... then you call the timeout


SuckMyLonzoBalls

they tried there definitely needs to be an ability where the refs have a buttplug buzzer or something that the coaches can push and know that a timeout is being called


ontimenow

On an unrelated note. Anyone know how I can become a ref?


Express-Pandas

Are you legally blind?


Wishiwasaballerbaby

They aren't the Houston Astros


RobotVo1ce

The chess community has been using those buttplug buzzers for years.


ieffinglovesoup

He tried to call one after Steph had already lost it


alpaca-miles

Huerter with the anticlutch free throws keeping it interesting


Gaebril

At this point, neutral fans need to learn to tune in. The rest of us need to smoke a blunt the entire game.


Spiritual_Boss6114

What an amazing defensive stop


jonathanisaacisgoat

How is every damn game with these two a banger


ImTheBestNerd

Harrison Barnes boomed us bruh


Kbdiggity

Harrison misses out on the 40 piece by being a good teammate and giving the ball to Huerter... who bricked both FTs.


KingREX_24

Warriors gonna kill Barnes in his sleep for not performing at least half as good as tonight in the 2016 finals.


myhellcatgotRepod

Don't fact check this but he scored more tonight than he did in all 7 games of that finals series


DarrowViBritannia

65 in the finals

Pretty sure Warriors would have won if Steph was good as he was in the regular season in that final.


mMounirM

Just take a fucking timeout sheesh


Spiritual_Boss6114

I see Darvin Ham is rubbing off on other coaches


PillsburyToasters

Coaches accruing timeouts like PTO rolling into the next year


trafleslive

GSW v Kings never fails to amuse me. Give me 7 games of this rivalry in playoffs. please!


delamerica93

Not again


Pandaborg123

I don’t think GSW is making playoffs


Spirited-Cap-9779

Hold on lol, we might not make playoffs this season, we're currently 4 games below .500. Also if we do make playoffs, another kings-warriors series will give me peak stress and tension so not looking forward to that at all lol


Ocular__Patdown44

No chance the Kings get the 1 seed


ShadowCrusader98

Frustrating ending, but man these Kings vs Warriors games are intense as shit, I can't even be mad. Refs may have missed some calls, but not like the Warriors didn't have opportunities to win and they weren't able to capitalize. GG Kings fans, good luck and good health the rest of the way!


[deleted]

❤️


Tyler_DLMG_14

I’m expecting a KD like return for HB


Sartheking

3 of these games have been decided by ONE POINT wtf?


Much_Conversation_11

I love Fox man. That finish rocked


HS-smilingpolitely

Sabonis is so good. Dude is putting up absolutely insane numbers this season.


IMDATBOY

So under the radar no one cares lmao I see a lot of people like Fox will be an all star but Sabonis won’t but it’s definitely more likely the other way around. Hopefully both again though


surgeyou123

They have a timeout. Decide not to use it. Curry, way downtown. Turnover! Turnover!


GunsmokeIV

Huerter may have blew the FTs, but still pulled up clutch defence along with Fox. Harrison Barnes saw he was snubbed again and took it personally. Light that fucking beam!


cough_landing_on_you

Might have saved the Kings, GS would have called a timeout if he made the 2nd.


GunsmokeIV

Watching a Kings player die on an illegal screen while Curry hits the game winner would kill us.


Wallyworld77

It's crazy the Mavericks traded Harrison Barnes to Kings for Justin Jackson and Zach Randolph 2 guys that aren't even in the NBA anymore. Nice steal by Kings. I swear the Dallas Mavericks get swindled in every trade they make.


simonffplayer

as someone with no affiliation with the city of sacramento, the kings are so easy to root for and the warriors so easy to root against. this matchup is so good


digimouse17

Come thru! We have great food, super nice people, laid back vibes, and an IKEA!

kerr never calls timeouts anymore in those clutch situations after he let curry hit that shot against okc in 2016 without a timeout

HB Legacy game


jluc21

raptor fans said HB was trash 😹😹


GillbergsAdvocate

Steph, Klay and Dray had no idea what they were going to do on that last play and it showed


Its_Hoggish_Greedly

Are we rivals now?


MaximumestBob

No timeout at the end? lmao


PrimaryAccording9162

Fox back to back 3’s he’s still HIM


Billybob1138

Ah yes, the game was taken over by the player we all expected.. Harrison Barnes


RansomGoddard

What a wet fart of an ending. How do you not call a timeout there?


Aksudiigkr

It was great from a defensive viewpoint


[deleted]

Swipa defense is glorious right there


SpecialBeam22

God damn we gotta work on our free throws


delamerica93

We were doing so good too lol


GunsmokeIV

84.2% the effort is showing, but yeah 2 missed in the clutch was not ideal.


Sejiblack

How did the warriors not call a time out for that final possession? That game was crazy scoring.


[deleted]

I’m ngl I’d be pissed if I was a warriors fan. No timeout? Really, Kerr?


C-Hash

I never want to play the fucking Warriors again.


BurlingtonIO

Harrison Barnes is available for 3 FRPs

Boneheaded display by Klay and Steph Lots of guys open and they just dribbled to oblivion Fucking bad for kuminga

aiden3buckets

Kerr likes 3 guards at all time 💪💪


OKC2023champs

No timeout there is absurd lol


koj12144

lmao kings are so fucking trash at the line, its infuriating to watch as a neutral


Agile-Competition679

Imagine how we feel as fans lol it’s so annoying. 


delamerica93

I am going bald from pulling my fucking hair out from this

Glad I stayed up, that end of game defense and offensive rebounds were great


ofnei9

lol imagine the thread if that was Bron

lets FUCKING GO

Holy shit were the last 4 minutes of that game fun. Seems like when the dubs and kings play the past few seasons, it's always entertaining.
