Sac Kings Therapy

The Kings made a few changes to their coaching staff by letting go of a lot of the assistant coaches from last year. Doug Christie will get to bring in his new staff for next year and he started with hiring Mike Woodson as his lead assistant. On the front office side, Scott Perry hires BJ Armstrong as his Assistant General Manger. They also conducted workouts with a group of prospects and Owen giv...

Doug had his press conference to make his promotion to head coach official. Not much new information was shared and we are still waiting on moves from the front office to get a gauge on how they will operate. Owen and Fong then go through the latest happenings in the playoffs, such as the Knicks closing out the Pistons in epic fashion. And the Wolves impressively close out the Lakers by absolutely...

Doug Christie finally has the interim coach tag off and is now the official head coach of the Sacramento Kings. With that out the way, GM Scott Perry will likely move onto the next phase of his plan which is hopefully addressing the roster. In news that doesn't seem real, Shaq is now the General Manager of Sac State Basketball. He will serve as a mentor and recruiter and work alongside Mike Bi...

Scott Perry had his introductory press conference and it's fair to say he won the press conference. He was confident, sharp and charismatic with his words and it felt like he had the media present in his palm. Winning the press conference is one thing, it will be actions and moves that he makes as the General Manager that will determine if he's right for the job. So to get an idea, Owen an...

Well, Wrestlemania 41 happened and if anything it was eventful. Reviews were mixed but a lot came out of it that's for sure. Owen and Fong go through each match and give their opinion on the event and whether or not they agree with the majority of critics. They also talk about the Demar DeRozan altercation with a fan in a sushi restaurant and a myriad of news surrounding the Kings and also for...

Well, that was quick. In less than an hour after the Kings were schlacked by the Mavs in the West 9/10 Play-In game, it was announced that Kings and GM Monte McNair would mutual part ways. This happened while players were still in the locker room getting interviews which created a lot of awkwardness and chaos. And then to add to the chaos, Kings hire Scott Perry as GM less than 12 hours later. Was...

(This was recorded before the Monte Mcnair resignation) Kings get eliminated from post-season contention by the Mavs on their home floor. Kings were simply too small for the much bigger and physical Mavs team and they get sent into the offseason in embarrassing fashion at home. Lots of decisions will be up in the air and changes will come this offseason. Buckle up. As a cleanser however, Owen and...

The Kings beat the Suns on the final day of the season in what was a formality. The Kings now clinch the 9th spot in the Western Conference meaning that they will host home court in the 9/10 Play-In game on Wednesday against the Mavericks. Let's see if the Kings have what it takes to beat this new look AD-Mavericks team. Owen then ends the episode giving his review of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth a...

Well, the Kings fought hard, but it still wasn't enough. Kings for the 4th time this season lose to the Clippers and while the result is very much demoralizing, the Kings showed plenty of fight but that's just how the cookie crumbles sometimes. Add to that some of the late game execution issues the Kings have had so often this season, it just wasn't their night. The Kings will face the...

The Kings were simply outmatched, they're just too small for the Nuggets. Add to that Kings fans were introduced to Jalen Pickett, it just wasn't the Kings night. While the Kings had a fair share of injuries, the Kings simply don't match up well against the Nuggets size, particularly in the frontcourt. They could not stop the Nuggets inside and they just got easy bucket after easy buck...

This team is impossible to figure out, they lose to a tanking Wizards team, then turn around and win 3 straight, with the last 2 wins coming on 2 back to back games on the road against the 1 seed Cavaliers and a version good Pistons team. The Kings were not favored in either game yet found a way to win through grit and toughness, something that has been lacking for much of the season. The Kings en...

That's how you handle a bad team. The Kings beat the Hornets by 23 and that's how the Washington game should've gone. What could've been. The Kings were simply the more skilled and physical team against a tanking Hornets team with half their roster injured and they simply took care of business. They now head to Cleveland and Detroit on a back to back starting Sunday and let's s...

It's actually impressive. The Kings not only lost to the Wizards but to their 2nd and 3rd unit guys as most of the main rotation was on the sideline. And the Kings still somehow lost playing their actual rotation. This means that the Wizards tried to lose and the Kings still couldn't beat them! What a world. Well, how did the Kings lose, they couldn't make shots and were horrid on defe...

Well, at least this game gave fans hope I guess. The Kings had the lead for much of the game by playing the beautiful game, moving the ball, playing with pace and getting great shots out of it. And then the 4th quarter happened, Kings went to Demar DeRozan isos a lot where he did his thing while the other 4 guys just watched. While it a terrible strategy, it took them away from their beautiful gam...

The Kings start their East Coast road trip on a bad note as they get pummeled by the Magic. Their offense was all out of sorts and they had no prayer to guard the much bigger Orlando lineups on the other end. It's a trend that is becoming all too often for the Kings and hopefully they pick it back up when they face the Pacers next on Monday. Use code SKT15 on checkout to get 15% off from HYVDe...

Well, that feels a lot better now. Kings get a win to break their 4 game losing streak, and it was a decisive one, blowing out the Blazers by 21 and leading big for much of the game. The Kings came out ready to play on both ends of the floor and maintained it throughout the game. It's a refreshing sight after 4 games where the Kings looked lost and hopeless for much of those losses. The Kings...

The Kings drop their back to back games against the Thunder and Celtics, letting their losing streak grow to 4. In both games they were handily defeated and showed that they are not on the level of championship teams like the Celtics and Thunder. Kings also now go from firmly in the 9th spot to being in danger of dropping out of the Play-In entirely. It's going to be a tough final 10 games, th...

Another game, another game where the Kings have a strong first half, only to falter in the 2nd half and crunch time on-route to another deflating loss at home. This is the ups and downs of .500 team, and is another reminder that this who the Kings are. The schedule does not get easier either with Boston and OKC coming to town Monday and Tuesday. Let's hope the good version of the Kings show up...

On any given night, the Kings can go toe to toe with a championship contending team and pull out a win. Such was the case against the Cavs, where they were able to pull out one of their most impressive wins of the season while missing 2 of their stars in Lavine and Sabonis. And then there's the Kings that lost to the Bulls the next night, where they dominated in the 1st half and then laid an e...

The Kings needed that, and their fans did as well. Losses can wear down even the best of teams, and the Kings got a much needed win to rejuvenate themselves and the fanbase. The Kings came out fast on offense and causing all sorts of havoc on defense. They maintained that effort and intensity all night and got the win over the Grizzlies. Sabonis after just coming back the last game was busted open...

The Kings are now on a 4 game losing streak after losing back to back games against the Warriors and Suns. In both games, and even going back to the Knicks game, the Kings have allowed the other team to absolutely destroy them from 3. Their defense simply has been awful and their offense has looked disjointed. The Kings have a long homestand coming up and hopefully they can find some sort of rhyth...

It's been a tough 2 days for the Kings. First they lose on a buzzer beater in overtime against the Clipper. A game in which they played very well especially defensively only to lose in heartbreaking fashion to Kawhi Leonard. And on the next night, they simply didn't have it on either end of the floor and get molly-whopped by the Knicks. It's by no means the end of the world but as it&#...

The much anticipated return of De'Aaron Fox finally happened. While we can spend hours talking about the reception and reaction that he got, the game itself was a run of the mill game where the more talented team showed itself and ran away with the victory. The Kings played good defense, and were searing from 3, which neutralized anything the Spurs did and more, leading to the Kings controllin...

The Kings had an interesting game plan to guard arguably the best player in the league. They had Keegan be the primary defender with Jonas as the helper off Westbrook. And it ... worked. The Kings controlled the game for 3 quarters with this strategy but faltered in the 4th being outscored by 15 in the quarter. It's a tough loss to swallow but the Kings do finish the road trip 3-1 as they head...

You win the games in front of you, and the Kings did just that as they beat the Mavs in Dallas after they lost Irving and Hardy to injury to add to their endless list of sidelined players. The Mavs were emotionally drained and spiritually depleted after the injuries and the Kings simply took care of business by beating them. The Kings will now head to Denver and look to get a win to go 4-0 on this...
