Ron is SUCH a black hole

Kevin only gets the ball when he grabs an offensive rebound off a forced-Artest-jumper. Oh yah, then he scores.

Do you think

we could get C-Webb to donate his hands to Mikki?

Thanks for the laugh, TZ

The Memphis preview actually called Mikki a "physical monster" and said that Bibby has been "very solid" since coming back from his injury.

Who knew?

If you consider Memphis' roster

those descriptions of Moore and Bibby are apt.

We got some gir scouts

trying out to fill out their roster. This one girl, she dribbles behind the back. She eats Ron Artests for breakfast.

Please don't. Just punch a hole in your wall instead. You'll lose fewer karma points that way and you'll never have to feel guilty for being a cat-killer. (Although I can think of one kitty who needs to die).

I hope your neighbor's cat survived this abortion of a game. It's unbelievable how bad this team can play when they are so capable of playing beautifully.

God bless you, Corliss. You always played as though you knew how expensive my tickets were. -section214

who predicted this? I must have missed this comment.

I don't know if anyone has brought this up...

But the Kings are not a good basketball team on the road.

RE: Worst road team ever.

I was going to do the same, but I think this can be attributed to us being horribly inconsistant whenever we play.

Let's Be Fair

We're pretty damn mediocre at home, too (I think we rank 15 out of 30).

Worst road team ever

Twolves 2-23 this season. I don't know who's the worst ever though.

Well (ugh!)-

The 90-91 Kings squad lost 37 consecutive road games, and I believe they lost the first 4 road games of the following season, the "Tiger Slam" of road loss futility.

Kings WILL respond

The Rockets are playing well but I call the Kings to win tomorrow.

I may be wrong but...

the kings must have the strangest record in the league, in terms of teams they've beaten and teams they've lost to.

Damn

If these youngsters can blow out our star-laden team, maybe we should blow up our star-laden team.

Though, quick q: whose future would you rather have right now?
Player side-by-sides:
Beno-Conley
Martin-Gay
Cisco-Lowry
Willaims-Darko
Shawes-Warrick
Douby-Navarro
Salmons-Miller

I'd be much happier about the Kings future if I knew we were getting some sort of value for the big three.

Don't cry

All it'd take would be Brandan Wright + 2 draft picks or Linas Kleiza + 2 draft picks, and I'd much prefer our future to the Griz. Remember, we still got Petrie, and Petrie makes good draft-day decisions. Plus, I'd rather have Stadium conflicts than ownership conflicts. The Maloofs wanna win, the Griz wanna get cheap.

Though, with the Heat switching to up-tempo ball, any chance they bite on Bibby? Or do they just let the expirings expire, and take all that cap space to free agency? Hmmm, predicting Pat Riley is a game in foolishness.

Yeah you rite bout Pattie

He is pretty un=predictable, but now he's playing with house money when it comes to how he makes his next move.

So frustrating.

These guys look amazing one game and then lay an egg the next. Artest looked like a chucker again, Theus couldn't coach his way out of a paper bag, Martin took the second half off. WTF!!!! The Griz? WTF!!!!

I wonder if i should even bother to watch

the damn game. It might ruin the start of the weekend for me. Even though I had a feeling they would lose. These wheels are about to fall off soon if Bibby & Artest are still around. Theus just doesn't have enough band aids to plug the leaks on USS Pyschotic-Non-Defense anymore.

Watch the first half

then pass on the rest.

I'll do that while

ignoring the first half of the rox-kangs game. League Pass subscribers, here, are getting screwed because there isn't "enough" channels tonight. So Sac-Hou get "joined in progress" as does the Mavs-Blazers. Shakes fist @ something...
