PrintTMZ.com - George Maloof Busted for DUI
George is the third Maloof brother, not nearly as visible in Sacramento as Gavin and Joe, but still decently active behind-the-scenes. It was George who recently visited Seattle to investigate the causes of their arena problems (or so they say).
Sacramento Business Journal - Sacramento Bee lays off sports editor
Bill Bradley is beginning his final week as the sports editor of The Bee. Shocking stat from the Biz Journal's story: in 1999, when Bradley arrived in Sacramento, The Bee had 15 reporters and columnists in the sports department. There are now five reporters and one columnist. Ugh.

From Jones' article (Cousins learning the ropes):
“(The officials) were pretty cool,” Cousins said. “They told you what you did. On the offensive foul they called on me they said I was fine until I extended my arm out which I believe I did do.”

DeMarcus seems to respect the Refs
I asked him after the Phoenix game how his first experience with real NBA refs was and he was completely professional. I don’t think we’ll see as many techs as we thought.

I felt (and feel)
DMC will get along with the refs just fine. It is the other bigs in the league with whom he will scuffle, and try to get under his skin because of reputation as volatile player.
In fact, I would predict a one game suspension+ will occur because DMC and an opponent are going to throw down. Let me use my spidey senses….I think it will the Bird Man on the Nuggets, or …the name that just came to me is Brad Miller. Yep, those two do not like each other already!!!
DMC will likely…follow the lead and on-court demeanor of Tyreke, who is one cool cat. I don’t see real temper issues. I also don’t expect any blow-ups with refs because DMC plays the right way in the paint. He does not try to dislodge defenders. He uses power, finesse, and footwork. He is not an uncoordinated player prone to run over a player, then beg for a whistle, a la JT, as example. So I expect DMC and refs will get along relatively well.

I predict JT puts up 7/5 this year.
I think he'll handle himself quite well with other guys trying to get under his skin
he did it in the tourny a few times when guys went hard at him. He kinda just laughed it off and sank his free throws because he knew what they were doing.
you would think a newspaper would know how to spell
Bill Bradley stepping down: LPA stepping up?
“There’s no damage other than he has a shiner and it looks swollen,” said Kings coach Paul Westphal. "He’ll be OK. It’s not one of those opthamologist type of injuries
C’mon. Not only one but two letters missing from a word and no one picks this up? Well, at least Coach Paul knows the difference.

According to cops, Maloof was arrested and booked into the Clark County Detention Center for DUI, speeding, making an illegal left turn, driving without a valid license and having no proof of insurance.

I was in LV this past weekend ( a conference) and they had an ad for an upcoming pre-season Lakers v. Kings contest. They had an photo insert of Kobe (of course) shooting over a gold uniformed King with Thomas on his jersey. Just thought it funny.

Sorry to kick a guy when he's down
but Bill Bradley is terrible. I suppose I shouldn’t take any pleasure in the demise of my hometown paper, but I’m glad that it was finally one of the crappy people that lost their job. I sincerely hope that Bill lands on his feet somewhere, but I’m pretty sure that the Bee and it’s readers will all be better off for his loss.

by the by, rivalries are fun. Being a homer is fun.
Ellis dominates Evans. Evans only able to score 5 points (in four minutes) but somehow this article infers that Ellis scored 18 on Evans… oh well.
Hahah what D-bags.
4 of their 5 starters played over 30 minutes! Oh and they had their full starting 5.
We don’t have Daly, Landry or Beno…any mention? Course not!

I can't sit through another season of thin-skin mania in here.
“I stayed up all night looking through basketball blogs in Asia and Europe, and can you believe some asshole in Ulan Bator thinks that the Lakers have a better bench than we do?”
Let people have their opinions, whether they are right or wrong. Especially in something as subjective as sports. Aside from winning and losing, it’s almost all opinion, even when invoking stats. Let it go, man.

My personal favorite is when people complain about the Kings getting no respect
then go ahead and say things like the Clippers suck because they are the Clippers.
That being said, I do enjoy the occasional poor sports article for the humor at least.

Someone could make the argument
that you are thin-skinned to those that are thin-skinned. Not me of course. Well…
Isn’t that what these boards are for…. to an extent? To call out bogus points of view. And to challenge an opinion that seems to lack basis in any objectivity? It is not the criticism of our favorite team that is bothersome. It is when the criticism is perceived as unfair.
And the SF writer does show he is a bit of an amateur and prone to hyperbole to draw such bold conclusions from a meaningless game.
I predict JT puts up 7/5 this year.
I probably am.
I also tell my kids not to whine about what imbeciles think. I sure hope the writer never calls Evans a stupid-head.
