Just ignore Kate, normally she’s not that much of a homer but that was bad.

Our color analyst might be worse than the team

kayte is awful. idk why people keep defending her. kyle draper is below average in that he doesn't have the proper amount of hype for specific plays. like monk adjusting mid air on the heavily contested layup, zero hype.

but there were so many moments where kyle was cueing kayte to say something, LITERALLY ANYTHING, because it would just be kyle speaking, speaking, and silence cause kayte is just fucking off doing whatever.

I swear there were 3 times tonight where Kayte was bitching about some foul against the kings and Kyle was like “yeah but [clearly explains the foul]” and she would be like oh.. yeah you’re right.

She had the nerve to go “10 free throws for Cade Cunningham?!” At one point like… really?

the pettiness, I forgot who hit a 3, I wanna say it was Malik Beasley early in the 1st or 2nd quarter.

hits a 3, but then proceeds to be like "but he's only 30% for the season from the 3"

like it just comes off as petty and unprofessional. need commentating crew please. we were spoiled by grant napear and Jerry reynolds

Beasley has legit been among the elite 3 pt shooters this year

42.1% on 9.4 3PA per game is elite

I know, but I wouldn't put it past her to say the wrong numbers...i just can't remember which piston player made a 3 and she decided to bring up their season percentage for whatever reason

tbf that's shocking to us as well given Cade's whistle historically

I don't mind that she's a homer. I do mind that she says dumb things about basketball when her job is to say things about basketball.

I usually try to listen to the home team broadcast but I just couldn’t do it after the first half tonight.

Not much of a homer? She’s the worst. She argues every call against the Kings.

Anyone who watches the Kings knows that’s not true.

I hear her all the time, “Kings fans won’t like this one but…” And proceeds to still be wrong about the call lol
