No contest in LA tonight. The Kings were absolutely manhandled. They don't even

score a hundred points and they lose to the clippers 119 to 98. There were no bright spots that I saw in the

game tonight for Sacramento.

They were thoroughly outplayed from the start.

We bring in Ryan in Sacramento and, you know, again,

go back-to-back as an excuse.

The Clippers played last night and they actually were extended much more than the Kings and

their veterans, particularly George and Leonard, played 40 minutes. So I don't want to hear about the second

that of it back to back. The Kings just, they were not ready to play tonight. They were not competitive in any aspect of this game.

Not at all, Grant. I have to go back to what you said though. There are a couple of positives.

Fox and Sabonis only played 25 and 26 minutes respectively and nobody got hurt.

So that's a positive, but no, nothing good to bring from this.

Grant, pretty much par for the course for back to backs for the Kings

for the season coming into tonight,

they were losing by an average of 25 points on back-to-back games.

They show up with that tonight again.

There you go.

Every time you think this team is making a step forward,

they take a big step back.

And tonight, this was a big step back.

I mean, there's just no other way to say it.

It's a big step back.
