GAME 17 vs Utah, Game Thread

Kings up by 3 with 2 minutes to go. Any time you have a margin higher than the minutes... that's a good thing, but I won't be happy until the lead exceeds Zero, and the time says Zero...

3 points by the Kings? Good.
Layups by the Jazz? Bad.

Great 3rd quarter so far. Nice scoring. And to think... Kevin Martin has been out the whole time.

Let's grab a win on the road before we call playoffs.

Re: GAME 17 vs Utah

Can we all agree, however begrudgingly, on two things; Theus is a MUCH better adjustments coach than Musselman, which is a bit like comparing Kincade to Turner, but we'll take it. And Garcia is definitely developing into the shooter we'd hope he'd be. College kids always take three years to find their touch (unless you're Durant...)

Re: GAME 17 vs Utah

Theus is definitely better, by far. I think Melo and LBJ were better than Durant during their rookie campaign

No begrudging here.

Playoffs! Playoffs! Now if only we can win on the road

Re: GAME 17 vs Utah, Game Thread

Playoffs will be tough. Assuming SA, Pho, Uta and Dal are locks. Kings would need to get ahead of two of: Hou, NO, Den, GS or LAL. Not sure who we could be better than on that list.

Re: GAME 17 vs Utah, Game Thread

obviously salmons and garcia were great tonight, but douby had some quality minutes defending deron williams.

this team looks so much better without k-9(woof!)!

Re: GAME 17 vs Utah, Game Thread

Not to rain on the parade, because I do like our chances this year, but just so we don't get carried away, remember that least year's November was marked by wins of 93-81 over Minnesota, 99-86 over Detroit, and 93-80 over the Clippers. Let's not pull out the anointing oils just yet. Inversely December started with a 5 game losing streak so...

Also did anyway just her Kozimor call Garcia El Flaco? Is he secretly kingme18?

Re: GAME 17 vs Utah, Game Thread

Yeah, well the Kings won and played strong and with confidence in the fourth quarter. You're entitled to be a little "off". I know this was the first game this year where I screamed extensively (in a good way), and then cried a little after it was over. (Hey! I'm a girl, sue me.)

A few more games like this one at home and their confidence will rise rapidly, that should translate into some road wins. I can't wait. I'm beginning to get excited over this season.

No, I don't expect them to win the championship or even make the playoffs, but this is becoming a hardworking team that doesn't take nights off and they are so freakin' fun to watch. I really would have been okay with it if they'd lost, they were just playing so God damned hard it got me emotionally involved in the game. I can't say that happened much last year.
