As bad as we've been, this is an utterly winnable game on our home floor. But we are again at a point where I'm not sure how great it is to pull these off. We've got absolutely no chance for a #1-#4 seed, very little for anything more than a #8 unles the TMac/Odom/Melo injuries/suspecnsions lay the teams at #5, 6, 7 lower than can be imagined. And so really all we are about now is finding a way to screw ourselves out of a high pick in a potential superstar laden draft.
The problem is, if we suck too bad, Bibby will jet and Atest will go Artest. Im not to sure I want to see the results of us getting alot of lotto balls.

Got our white shirts and "new, unwrapped toys" ready for tonight!

Let's come home with a win, huh? ;)

Analysis, schmanalysis! The Kings would be in the playoff race now if they had consistently made some shots. They used to make critical shots, but now do not. It is that simple. Post-game analysis concerning defense, offense, and subtle elements of the game is pointless.

The observation about KT being the best player and THAT being bad news, while funny misses the point of wat was one of the only silver linings from last nights debacle. MUSS PLAYED BIG BOY BALL and when he did the Kings held their own. The Line up with Brad, SAR, K9, Artest and (Salmons or Bibby take your pick since they were equally ineffective) Looked good. Sure they had spacing problems, and were not 'clicking' but I also bet they have not worked out with that combo much eatier. It allowed Ron to muscle in on runts at the 2 who he did NOT give up speed to, Kenny was in his element against SF's and it showed, SAR could have played better but considering he was up against Dirk no complaint and Brad forced the Galoot brothers Jop and Dampier to come out of the paint and not only did he make thm pay when they did not by forcing them out of position they BOTH were in fould trouble in the end.

Im not suggesting benching Kevin or Mike here but playing that BIG line up more might be the ticket agains a lot of line ups.
Agreed. I was at the game with my sister, and I dont think she understood why I was so giddy when we came out with Salmons/Artest/Thomas/SAR/Miller on the floor. I'd like to see it a lot more, but we need another big body on the bench badly.

That was probably the slowest "fast break" ever.

LOL @ Brad trying to run. he looked so awkward. Thank God Kev was there to finish the fast break!

Hmmm... sore knees for Ron?!

Did y'all hear what Sager said about Artest? Is that something that we should be worried about? (I'm not talking about his knees.) I know it is probably nothing, but when we are not winning games, small things get blown out of proportion.
