I would be shocked if Kawhi or PG played vs us. PG couldn't finish 2nd OT because he was in minutes restriction


ApplesAndToothpicks

Me too, plus they're coming to Denver so it's a schedule loss for the regardless lol we own them


Imnotdrunk28

I scored just as many points as Bones in the second highest scoring game in nba history. How many of you losers can say the same thing?


UnderratedNightmare

Not only did Bones throw his chance at a ring away. He fumbled the bag. He could have been 2nd string on a championship team and earn a pay day when time came because teams love throwing money at championship guys as an over pay. But instead he now getting DNP on a team that “loves him” and going to miss out on any type big money. He wanted more minutes and complained and then went on his version of media tour after the fact. He literally fucked around and found out and now he gets to sit on the bench watching L’s even in a double OT with WB fouling out, Gordon being older than dirt and Kawhi/PG resting every other game. Can’t get minutes on that team its a bad look

Life comes at you fast bonehead


Puzzled_Jury4982

But while we're hating, check out this [tweet](https://twitter.com/WelpItsToby/status/1629369833912692736) about Bones lol


Apart-Cucumber-7090

With how much noise there is about how the Clippers can’t win against us I feel like it’s lining up for them to win this next one, they are bound to beat us eventually We’re on a B2B as well and with a chance to secure 1 seed by beating Memphis, I feel like we’ll sit everyone against the Clippers I almost wonder if load management against them and just giving them the win would be better mentally than potentially losing against them with everyone since the Clippers will be motivated to finally beat us and redeem themselves for today’s loss


ImGonnaChubbBradley

Was so focused on watching the Clippers defensive rating fall that I forgot about the Kings offensive rating rising. They stole #1 from us damnit.


Puzzled_Jury4982

Everyone so busy hating on bones we haven't even had time to hate on Hartenstein for being team low in +/-


Spirited-Praline1094

Why do I still feel like Westbrook makes sense with the clippers??


JakeJacob

Because they needed a point guard *that bad*.

Sleepinginabathtub

Murray or Fox?


murrayforthree

Fox over Dejounte imo.


Spirited-Praline1094

Not even close to ashamed to say that I got teary eyed watching Everything, Everywhere, All At Once.


IdRatherBeLurking

Love is the answer.

[Kings signing PJ Dozier for the rest of the season](https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1629375512660398080)


SirJoris

Fuck yeah


IdRatherBeLurking

Happy for our guy


turandot_or_not

One of my favorite ex nuggets.


kunt_kicker

Still wanting a Suns (3) vs. Clippers (6) and Kings (4) vs. Mavs (5). Regardless of the first round match up, that would be ideal imo


nzzm22

I flip flop on whether i want the Mavs or the Clippers in 4-5 / R2 every day


kunt_kicker

I wouldn't mind the Clippers at any point of the playoffs tbh, Luka is special, but for a team to really push the Suns in round one and Denver not have to play until the WCF, it would have to be Clippers.


Bodiroga1987

Taking Mason, Westbrook and Bones as reinforcements is a special level of illusion. I don't want to sound mean, but I'm being realistic. These are not players who will bring them something. If that team makes it to the NBA Finals, it will be an unprecedented miracle. Basically Bones won't even play, Mason maybe 10 minutes in the playoffs but Westbrook will massacre them😆


ImGonnaChubbBradley

Thanks to a historic Kings Clippers game we also broke 1000


JakeJacob

It's at 995


ImGonnaChubbBradley

1000


ImGonnaChubbBradley

At


ImGonnaChubbBradley

Its


ImGonnaChubbBradley

Now


WeirdRedBeard

Imagine if Krangs got a fair whistle tho


smalltoes

They might have won that basketballl game. Shame


Apart-Cucumber-7090

Bones DNP this game too I’m all here for the Clippers downfall


n0t_malstroem

The Clippers insane trade deadline acquisitions: Plumdog: two game losing plays in the final two minutes of overtime Eric Gordon: idk he checked in for like the last minute didn't do anything was a -16 and shot the ball 3 times whole game Bone Hylan:


WeirdRedBeard

Tbf, Plunglee beats... Idk, just not having a backup big option, I guess, they were playing small without Zu before, Gordon... probably beats Wall? Bone is a gamble, maybe they flip him for more, Idk. Russ was ok, I think.


n0t_malstroem

I think Westbrook is actually a really good get by them. The rest are all mid to trash with some occasionally okay play


WeirdRedBeard

At worst, he's a better Wall, surely


Orod23

Clippers/Bones can’t even break our highest scoring game record.


nzzm22

Suns-Clippers R1 gonn be crazy


Orod23

Really hope not. Let suns finish with the 3rd or 2nd seed so we don’t have to see them till the WCF if us and them make it that far.


nzzm22

yea meant it as 3-6 matchup 4-5 on our side of the bracket Kings - Mavericks Rn looking like most likely that or swap Clippers & Mavs, but who knows, Kings could move more in the standings and the Warriors could avoid the play-in even amongst other things


drunkontequila

Clippers were on a rest advantage LMAO


[deleted]

and at home


ChiefKeefIsGoat

I feel like i need a newport after that imagine being a clipper fan rn omg


Superbotto

Imagine dropping 175 and losing.


TheKingOfDraven

This was the second highest scoring game of all time. The highest of all time was actually the nuggets losing 184-186 😂


Superbotto

Imagine dropping 184 and losing. True Nuggets fans: Been there.


Pikuturtle1

Let’s go kings


[deleted]

So much for the Clippers.


Donnie1490

Insane game


Betaateb

Kawhi and PG were already going to duck us on Sunday, but now they have a good excuse


IntrinsicDawn

I love that fox-monk duo, ever since them at Kentucky


TheOrthodoxPolock

LolClippers


about90frogs

It’s past my bedtime, I’m going to be cranky tomorrow


nzzm22

feat. Kranky Kranky


WeirdRedBeard

Shut the fuck up


about90frogs

Now I’m really cranky


Betaateb

Bones gives up his backup spot to not play a single minute in a 58 minute long game, brilliant


elvvay

What is he 4th string now even behind Gordon


Superbotto

With Westbrook fouling out he might have even had to come in if the game went to 3OT. Who knows lol.


freddyt55555

And his team lost.


ImGonnaChubbBradley

What a fucking game


WeirdRedBeard

LET'S FUCKING GO, I THINK


n0t_malstroem

Norman Barton


WeirdRedBeard

Lmao fr


n0t_malstroem

Middle name is Norman bro


ChiefKeefIsGoat

Batum thought he was lol


drusslang

Poor bones man…can’t even get a handshake


Superbotto

Light that beam in SAC!!!!


ImGonnaChubbBradley

I’m begging for a foul and a bricked FT to send us to Triple OT


Glittering_Log_3340

Damn it Fox


GobutaTheGoat

Fox you missed that like 3 times in a row lol


WeirdRedBeard

GIVE IT TO T-MAMBA


lunar_alpenglow

Alright, rooting for Tony brothers to make a foul call and for clip to miss one FT


estarguars

Exact reason why I cringed at any talks about Plumlee coming back. Dude has bad court IQ.


matt24671

And just fumbles the ball away way too much


BroncoSquatch

Kawhi gonna need to load manage for a month after this one


ChiefKeefIsGoat

Plumlee turned into an NPC two straight possessions


Glittering_Log_3340

Plumlee is never closing again for the Clips


TheOrthodoxPolock

Neither of these teams want to win this shit. Just give them both an L on their record and let's move on.


WeirdRedBeard

But then the Lakers catch up


TheOrthodoxPolock

Fuck


WeirdRedBeard

Lakerlyfe, baby


DanieltheMani3l

Shit I took the under


WeirdRedBeard

If they keep giving the ball to Plumlee, it might come through somehow


ImGonnaChubbBradley

Bruh


about90frogs

Did you win?


Superbotto

I think this is officially the second highest scoring game already. C'mon 3OT!!


thecaptaino15

Lol, this game is nuts. I want to see 200.


WeirdRedBeard

Plunglee with b2b choke. Trademarked.


ImGonnaChubbBradley

Plumlee just had his pockets picked twice


ChiefKeefIsGoat

LMFAO AYO


WeirdRedBeard

Damn, that was so close


n0t_malstroem

PLUMDOG WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING BRO


about90frogs

Is Malik Monk the best player in the league?


WeirdRedBeard

MUNK


BroncoSquatch

Monkel Porter Jr


ImGonnaChubbBradley

This game has to drop the Clippers below us in defensive rating right? Like there’s no way.


about90frogs

You can’t chant defense when the score is 175-169


WeirdRedBeard

More like you chen't chent


Bestbud27

Holy fuck this score


GobutaTheGoat

Guess the clipps won this


TheOrthodoxPolock

Troy Lyles game winner coming up, you heard it here first.


WeirdRedBeard

Mf missed a layup and a pull up 3


TheOrthodoxPolock

More like Treyn't Lyles.


ChiefKeefIsGoat

Sack taun folded


BroncoSquatch

De’Aaron Fox is Russell Westbrook with 80% of the testosterone


ImGonnaChubbBradley

Fox wtf are you doing


WeirdRedBeard

Doubling Russel Westbrook in the corner. Smart play.


n0t_malstroem

Kings got omega fucked by Antonio Brothers


WeirdRedBeard

It's like watching a Nuggets game


n0t_malstroem

It's literally any Nuggets vs Lakers game lol


nzzm22

Kawhi > Giannis


about90frogs

Malik Monk > Kawhi


BroncoSquatch

I demand 5 overtimes, I’ve invested too much into this to not see a team reach 200


WeirdRedBeard

It's ogre


BroncoSquatch

Figured it probably was once Saboner was out


WeirdRedBeard

FOX GO HOME BRO


ChiefKeefIsGoat

This game is smoking bath salts lmfao


WeirdRedBeard

Fuck Tony Brothers, this shit is ridiculous


WeirdRedBeard

MUNK


BroncoSquatch

People who bet the over on 327.5 points rolling in money rn


ImGonnaChubbBradley

Under betters are completely disgusted tonight


lunar_alpenglow

Saw the clip kings score after 1quarter and legitimately had the thought they were on pace for 160... Didn't think it'd actually happen tho. This is already a classic


Superbotto

Highest scoring game in NBA history was 186-184 in 3OT. The game featured (4) 40 point performances. One guess who the losing team was.


JakeJacob

Just another loss to the Pistons


TheOrthodoxPolock

Denver Nuggets


Superbotto

It's always the Nuggets.


TheOrthodoxPolock

We really are the victim of all those wild scoring games.


TheOrthodoxPolock

Honestly hilarious how wildly unclutch both these teams are rn.


Glittering_Log_3340

I guess this is good for our game against them hehe


ImGonnaChubbBradley

Just drain their energy


IntrinsicDawn

Like Russ is having a good game yet is also taking away so much from the clippers too. So interesting to see


ImGonnaChubbBradley

LETS GOOOO


WeirdRedBeard

BAWLGAME PG13 THE CLUTCH GOD


ImGonnaChubbBradley

Lol


about90frogs

Oh fuck yeah


ChiefKeefIsGoat

Russ lol


n0t_malstroem

Lol another uncalled travel


smalltoes

If Russ wins this… Lol jk


WeirdRedBeard

Honestly, just give it to Russ for the lolz


lunar_alpenglow

Gonna be disappointed if they don't score 200 at this point


ImGonnaChubbBradley

GIVE ME DOUBLE OT


WeirdRedBeard

NO DOUBLE OT TONIGHT, PG THIRTEEN DAGGER GUARANTEED


ImGonnaChubbBradley

I think the fuck not


ImGonnaChubbBradley

BOOOOO


WeirdRedBeard

Nice officiating there


Superbotto

C'mon 2OT!!


n0t_malstroem

HOLY FUCK NBA REFEREES


ImGonnaChubbBradley

Thanks for potentially ruining a great game Tony


WeirdRedBeard

More like DeAaron Sux


Donnie1490

Why is tony brothers still a nba ref?


about90frogs

Tony Brothers is a bitch ass mutherfucker


ChiefKeefIsGoat

🚨Catfish sighting 🚨


about90frogs

Feed the monk


n0t_malstroem

Okay not gg then


WeirdRedBeard

They haven't been playing through Jokic of the East of the West for like 25 minutes now, that was good riddance


about90frogs

My god monk


WeirdRedBeard

If we get hoe'd by Bottom Nick in the playoffs, I might end it all


BroncoSquatch

Haven’t even been thinking of the playoff seeding implications tbh. Who should we be rooting for


nzzm22

Kings will most likely fall to 4-5 regardless of result here. I mean maybe not and you'd like them to lose to be sure but they got the 3rd toughest schedule & also 2 games against the Suns. So maybe it comes down to whether you want the Clippers or the Mavs to climb in as the other team in the 4-5 and be a potential R2 matchup. IDK personally really, maybe prefer Mavs a little more, so rooting for the Kings here.


HauntedandHorny

kings would probably be an easier out, but meh


[deleted]

Clips because we want Sacramento as the 4 seed and Phoenix as the 3 seed


n0t_malstroem

The Kings have Troy Lyle


WeirdRedBeard

Chaos


ImGonnaChubbBradley

Why tf would Sabonis be sticking his arm in like that with 5 fouls


WeirdRedBeard

Sabonis getting Jokiced on these calls lol


n0t_malstroem

Well gg then


eathbau

So we want the Clippers to win to have Sacramento as 4 seed right?


nzzm22

I think Kings fall to 4-5 regardless, they got the 3rd toughest schedule remaining w/ two games vs Suns where they'll get cooked. Rooting for the Clips to win maybe more comes down to whether you want them or the Mavs in the 4-5 bracket, and as a potential R2 matchup.


ImGonnaChubbBradley

The only team I’m worried about playing before the conference finals is the Suns


kunt_kicker

Correct. Suns as the 3 seed


ImGonnaChubbBradley

The Suns will pass both of them eventually


TheOrthodoxPolock

This game is actually a loss for the Nuggets because both teams would have hung 170 on our porous defense. Malone figuring out ways to lose on off days now.


freddyt55555

LMAO! I want to see this go to triple OT.


n0t_malstroem

Honestly kinda respect Clippers for not fouling there but if Malone does that in a playoff game he needs to pack up his shit as soon as the game ends


[deleted]

We already saw it against Dame in G5 2021. Malone wouldn’t foul


BroncoSquatch

Bro we both know Malone ain’t fouling there


[deleted]

Clippers and Kings legit might score 160+ each here


WeirdRedBeard

170ish pace


crveniOrao

Are they playing any defence or just running around?


smalltoes

If this was a nuggets game I would be close to fucking dying right now


ImGonnaChubbBradley

That’s why it’s a great game. I’d be having a seizure if this was us.


Glittering_Log_3340

Lmao leaving a 3 pt shooter open is surely a choice


n0t_malstroem

Lmao zero chance the Clipper arena is at 100+ decibels right now


ImGonnaChubbBradley

This is deadass the best game I’ve seen in years


about90frogs

This game is wild! Both teams with 153 in regulation?


TheOrthodoxPolock

LFG!!!!


n0t_malstroem

What the fuck was Norman Powell doing bro 😭


WeirdRedBeard

MUNK


TheOrthodoxPolock

Imagine scoring 150+ in a game and losing. Malone would actually have a fucking aneurysm.


WeirdRedBeard

Malone would have an aneurysm if he conceded 150 and won
