The Kings end the year on a downer as they lose to the Mavericks on their home floor in demoralizing fashion. It's basically the same story, they missed shots and then allow the opposing team to get easy buckets on the other end, it's the absolute worst version of the Kings. What makes it more frustrating is that they played well to start the game and the 2nd half, so we got the complete Kings roller coaster experience.
It's unclear why the Kings let this happen time and time again but what is clear that this team is mentally fragile and folds quite often when faced with adversity. Whether you want to blame it on coaching, the front office, the players, all roads lead to the same destination, this team needs change. And it needs to be the King's New Year's Resolution.
