Yeah, Kings fans being mad is weird. He was there for eight years. You can’t expect him to want to play for a losing team forever, especially when the coach was changing every other business day.

I swear, I understand being mad as hell initially but it’s time to cut the shit out 😂. I say this, and watch the hate flow for his next bad game. Having Fox, even when he does play bad, is still good because you still got someone who can move the ball when another player is playing like shit. And same with having Harper when Fox is playing terrible.

I don’t hate fox, but I will say you’re missing a piece of the puzzle - Fox went out of his way to trash the organization after he left, even coming to Sacramento to do podcasts and radio events. It was really weird and he also never said much about Sac other than that once he left. If he had been like “the team that drafted me, amazing fans, best of luck” and that’s it, everyone would still love him

Fox’s #1 problem has always been his consistency. Dude has to get someone to light a spark under his ass to get going

He would just go quiet at the most random times. He was also sandbagging hard when Hali was around which first started to sour people so

A great player is inside there, but he doesn’t always come out

Yeah but as a sports fan, you can’t blame them on how they’ll feel though. Franchise player in his prime left them.

Can’t blame Fox’s decision to leave but you can’t blame the fans to hate his decision as well.

I used to be mad but I’m over it now. The team is a dumpster fire and he’s not to blame for massive organizational incompetence. Now I’m just enjoying watching Fox play on a good team and getting some playoff shine

He quit on the team multiple times. First when Hali was here he started playing disinterested and forced us into a “him or me” situation, then he quit again last year and said the only team he’d play for was the Spurs. It’s the Kings fault for acquiescing to him both times instead of doing what’s best for the franchise, but he is not without fault. Of course none of you would know that; you’re not Kings fans.

Most fans are fine, they’re a little mad but that’s understandable considering how he left. There’s one particular kings fan that is wild though he came in almost every single spurs game thread that Fox played poorly in to constantly crap on him lol

He’s had Jrue on him all series… that’s allowed Harper and Castle to attack the basket. When Jrue switches off Fox, he is a problem for our younger guards.

A bunch of fairweather ass fans cause they never knew it before Duncan.

ok to be fair a good number of spurs fans were born after he was drafted

He’s been consistently good averaging 17 this series people are literally mad cus he was bad 1 game. He also averaged 25 and 6 when wemby was out, people just overreact

His other games weren’t bad either TBH, he’s still very important for the offense. And he’s trying hard on defense even if he doesn’t have the same tools that Castle and Harper do on that end.

50 million thats not hurting the spurs cap sheet at all until 2028.

I’ll never blame a player for taking the money. As soon as Fox signed that contract I knew it would be an overpay but he’s still a very good player.

Look at this series, Jrue has been guarding Fox most of the time. That’s because he’s still very good even if he’s not worth a 30% max. Fox has been willing to take a step back from being the main guy this year and letting Castle and Harper take advantage of having the worse defender on them all season and it’s been very helpful to their development and the success of the team.

Yeah and Fox has said nothing but nice things about the city, org, his teammates. He’s taken whatever role given and done it and been a positive influence on winning the whole time.

I wish “fans” would just root for the team and I feel especially for a player who explicitly wanted to come here

“But I will get censored and cancelled 😫”

People need to know that it’s literally impossible to use “ahh” without sounding like a try-hard suburban teenager.

Nah

He does so much other shit that benefits the team but that damn contract makes all his bricks hurt some fans like it’s coming out their pocket lmfao

There was a dude who was deadass comparing him to BRADLEY BEAL lmao.

He wasn’t terrible in game 3, what are you talking about

Exactly. He was asked to play that role before the season started. His job isn’t to put the team on his back and carry them everywhere. His job was to facilitate and bring our young guards up.

People don’t realize that it’s Wemby one night carrying us, then Castle, then Harper, then Fox, and so on. The reason that is possible is because no one on the team goes out having to put 30+ a night to win.

I mean it’s also about efficiency and consistency

When he was on the Kings, people were saying 100% of Fox isn’t top 15 lmao
