[Suicide King]

#Kangz upcoming: Hornets, Blazers, Pelicans, Grizz, Bucks. All winnable at this point.

Memphis and Portland are games I expect them to drop, rest should be wins.

BJax: "Rondo, we can talk about him for hours for days, he leads the league in assists, he leads the Kings in leadership."

Rajon with his 6th triple double and counting.

I love that this was the third game in a row where, they other team made their run, but we were able to survive the body blows, and then punch back.

**** that! This is the start of the Sacramento Kings Payback Tour. First stop: Charlotte. Portland is next up. If we can keep playing like we've been this month, Portland will not beat us.

Will Rondo really break a Sacramento franchise record or two only playing one season? I don't know if that goes to show the lack of star talent in the Sac era or just that type of year for Rajon.

Pretty amazing after that performance by Cuz I didn't realize Rondo had the triple double until it was announced

Hey Grant, shut the **** up

Geez, enough of the Grant bashing.....I understand the occasional hate, but man, some people nitpick every single thing he says..... He gave Cousins tons of kudos tonight.........It could be much worse, we could have TNT's pathetic, "we don't even call the game" broadcasters........

 

[Glenn]

Willie is rebounding better than I thought he would. Sure he's a 7 footer but still ... I'm surprised. He doesn't weight much. Also his dribbling is better than I thought. He shouldn't dribble into a crowd and doesn't. When he got a rebound and headed towards the sidelines and then turned around to dribble to the rim I almost screamed. Then there is his passing. Better than I thought. That term I hate, BBIQ , seems to fit him as he has a high BBIQ. Indeed he knows what to do and when.

I don't think being upset at our PBP guy for trying to run our superstar out of town again counts as nitpicking

It's payback.

He gave Cousins tons of kudos tonight... Yes, he's been over-critical of him before, I agree, BUT I can't even count the amount of times he praised him during tonight's game..

We are... not in agreement that that would be a downgrade.

 

[kingjatt]

Its hard to watch George up there like this, he can barely get a sentance out without coughing up or dry heaving.

 

[Merdiesel]

I don't think anyone on here understands the game of basketball better than George Karl, but god damn were we right on feeding the beast in the post. You're welcome George.

 

[John Galt]

This is exactly the kind of game I wanted to see when I was saying it "shows where we're at". This IS where I believe we are at, and I wanted the fellas to prove it on the floor.

We jumped these guys - we were so great at the start of the game. It was hella!!!!

What's great is that EVERY GAME from here on out is going to be nuts at Arco as we make this farewell season for the old barn. I am one PSYCHED Kings fan right now.

 

[KingsFanatic]

Are you kidding me??? Did you even watch them call the last two games??? I counted numerous times wheree they weren't even calling the game, just talking about certain players etc, meanwhile 10 points had just been scored. It was pathetic. Even a friend of mine who's a high school basketball coach was watching it with me saying they were embarrassing to listen to.

 

[Chicken Chaser]

I really enjoyed the Pacers broadcast with I believe Chris Denari and Quinn Buckner. They don't have the exciting outbursts that Grant provides (i.e. Willie's 1st quarter dunk "LOOK OUT BELOW!"), but their commentary is more objective and there is actually basketball analysis throughout the game. I just hope we get Doug in there when the new arena opens.

From PacersDigest:

I saw what you did up there, trolling ? Classy fans.

 

[Merdiesel]

I would have said the same thing a couple weeks ago. Not tonight. These guys are playing great team basketball right now. We get Rudy back and things could really take off.

I watch every TNT game, when it's not head-to-head against the Kings, so of course I watched the Kings' TNT games, too. I'd take those guys over the guys we've got a hundred times out of a hundred.

You mean like Grant and Jerry's nightly chat about Jerry growing up in French Lick?

One of them is a bit Captain Obvious but nevertheless they are solid

Nope, people don't nitpick every thing he says.

Just the really stupid stuff.

The fact that there's a lot of that is mere coincidence.
