Nice try nerds. 8th seed belongs to the Kings.

King to the throne.

KINGS.

Jazz would've been the 7th seed if Gobzilla was healthy.. When and if he comes back, the spot is ours. Gobert > cousins btw.

[NugzFan]

And this is why the kings are the kings.

[GIF REACTION]

It's a race to the throne

Who'll win it all?

Kings are in the drivers seat

With their schedule easing up they were primed for the 4th spot when Rudy went down. Still could make a move for 5 if they hang in until Rudy is back.

Utah are on thin ice

Kings started 1-7... Been 500+ every since

oh wow, a guy that last year was a sixth man is out? Gobert is the key player for the Jazz.

Would be like Cavs losing Bran

First of all the nuggets have way more injuries than just nurkic.

Second did you just compare gobert to lebron?

Nailed it. Fans of these other teams aren't ever thinking how to become an 8 seed. They're all happy where their teams at in the process of trying to become a good team. Only Phoenix really is expecting to be a winning team and your bragging about #16 in the NBA over a group of teams 17-20something in the NBA?


Even Minnesota right now is thinking about how they become an elite team around wiggins/towns.


Everybody knows the kings are a trainwreck waiting to happen. The only question is how bad? My guess is it's only a 1 year waste. They'll fire g Karl before the end of the year. But if they don't, all other possible outcomes for the kings are terrible. Karl coaching cousins for 3-4 years would be terrible for his career and the franchises fans. Karl getting them to trade him would be even worse.
