What up Kings fans? As you can tell from my headline, I hate the Lakers. I hope I share that in common with a lot of you here. I hate to bring back bad memories, but I don't see how a true Kings fan can ever cheer for the Lakers after '02, unless if you needed them to win against a team you're in playoff contention with. I say the same thing towards my fellow Warrior fans.

Being a resident of Northern Cali myself, I was with you guys back in '02. We had eventual Sac-Town hero for his rookie year, Chris Webber. I was heart broken when he departed. I was a little happy when he came back up north, although it wasn't with the Warriors. And being that I hate the Lakers, I was rooting hard for the Kings to destroy them. As I was watching it, I knew that series had to be fixed. They just finally admit to it last year during game 3 of the Finals (By the way, thank you Boston for straight up ambarrasing the Lakers). I hate how the Lakers can almost always get away with any and everything. I think I'm still in shock how supposedly Bibby's chin fould Kobe's elbow. And back in round 2, if Yao were healthy, I like to think I'm positive that Coach Adelman would have gotten his revenge on those dreadful S.O.B's.

I was wondering if you, as Kings fans, have to deal with anyone who's a Kings fan to start the year, then all of a sudden "cheering" for the Lakers. I told my buddy, who is a diehard Kings fan who lives in Oakland, "I think if you're a true Warriors or Kings fan, you do not cheer for the Lakers. Ever!" He then said "See why I hate '07 bandwagon Warrior fans? Now they're Laker fans." That just irks me.

Now, I think we can all unite and scream "GO MAGIC." Although he wasn't part of their rotation, Scott Pollard got his revenge and his ring over the Lakers last year, and now I'm hoping Hedo can accomplish the same feat this year.
