00:00 Keep it out west here. Crypto.com arena last night and I was with you, Davis.
00:03 I heard you say you like the Lakers. I like them too. Yesterday, 1 31 20.
00:07 This was the Sacramento Kings going on the road and picking up a big victory.
00:10 Why? You take a look at who was scoring for the Sacramento Kings.
00:13 How about 44 points out of the Aaron Fox, which included 19 of 32
00:18 from the floor, which is incredible.
00:20 And the Matas a bonus 16 points, 20 rebounds, 12 assists
00:25 and two steals last night pacing the way here.
00:27 Nice win for the Kings.
00:28 I didn't think they'd get, but also more question marks here.
00:31 Davis starting to pop up LeBron James and his ankle.
00:34 How healthy will he be down the stretch run here in the Western Conference?
00:37 You know, it's sort of one of those interesting things that the Lakers,
00:42 when they won the title in 2020 and then when they got their acts together last year,
00:46 really, it was done defensively.
00:49 They were just like a really defensively stout team.
00:51 It's a little bit harder to do that when you literally I mean, look, LeBron
00:56 is a great defender when he really needs to lock in.
00:59 He can't do it.
01:00 Thirty five minutes a night.
01:01 I mean, we're talking about the literal oldest player in the NBA.
01:05 And now with some of the injuries they've suffered and the decision,
01:09 you know, they were starting Cam Reddish at the beginning of the year.
01:12 Now he is a DNP CD every single night.
01:15 So when you're starting lineup has Ruby Hachimura, D'Angelo Russell,
01:19 Austin Reeves, and then your first guy off the bench is Spencer Dinwiddie.
01:22 There's a bunch of minus defenders, you know, not even not even
01:25 average, but like, you know, my I guess Reeves is actually all right.
01:29 But Russell, Rui and Dinwiddie are bad, bad defenders.
01:34 It's going to result in 19 for 32 for De'Aaron Fox and Sabonis.
01:38 It's like this guy get you don't even break a sweat
01:42 getting a triple double 16, 20 and 12.
01:44 And it's just like, well, you know, it's just basically what I what I do out here
01:48 in Sacramento, and I kind of feel bad for Fox and Sabonis
01:52 because the Kings are so much worse as a team this year.
01:55 Then they were last year, and I don't even really have an explanation for it.
01:58 I guess maybe just the rest of the conference is a little bit better,
02:02 but a pretty big and important win for them because they are now directly
02:06 competing against the Warriors, Suns, Mavericks, Kings and Lakers
02:11 for those like final four spots in the playoffs.
