Of course the probability of playing at that level night in and out is very little but yet it's possible. So when there is possibility then there is CAN.
I rather be immature about last night game and get snapped back to reality than thinking of how bad this team still is day after day.
Honestly I thought Spurs was going to bring it on 4th quarter, which they did, but the Kings was able to hold them down. Amazing!!! Duncan tried but got double quickly..Kings were everywhere. Spurs passing were outstanding and was able to get a man open here and there but not consistant. They couldn't do crap in the paint and threes is not going to go in forever!!
Logic is for the real world...NBA is for fanatics!!!!!
Bring it on WARRIORS...bring it on!!!
Props to Kings playing very well defense. Welcome to our town, our court and that basketball you have in your hand is OURS!!!

Why not just let people feel good about a win? The team played well. If someone wants to wonder how good the team can become there is nothing wrong with it. Actually its normal thought process. I don't think anyone believes that they are going to start beating the best eams in the NBA on a regular basis but the thinking is that can they play better than they did at the beginning of the season on a regular basis. Kings have been darn good at home. Kings just beat SA without KMart having one of his good games which DOES make one wonder.
I was at the game last night, and it was great fun to see such a wonderful performance by our guys, sans Kevin and Cisco. I revelled in the victory and counted myself lucky to have been in the gym last night to have witnessed an unlikely, happy event.
But I do not really take much from this game as far as projecting what might be down the road.
We had sort of an alignment of planets last night, with all our front line playing very well in the same game, shooting greater than 50% as a team, EIGHT blocked shots as a team, Spurs on a back-to-back and a step slow, and our point guard having a super-energized career game.
Frankly, what happened last night could happen for any NBA team.
The difference between the good, mediocre, and bad is consistency in performances. The good teams are very consistent and have outings like the Spurs-last-night infrequently (that's why they are 12-3 now); the mediocre teams have a game like ours-last-night in one game and the very next they suck, and the cycle repeats; and the bad teams have a game like ours-last-night every so often and stink most of the rest of the time.
Before we can draw any conclusion about "what could be" and "our potential", we need to watch a few more games and see if the Spurs win changes anything in how we play as a team. If 5 games from now we are on a 6-game winning streak, well then we really have something to point to with last night's game. I fear that last night's tremendous performance could turn out to be the performance of the year for us.
Last night was a whole lotta fun (unless you were KMart), but let's see what we do with our friends from the Bay Area tomorrow night.

Some extra things I noticed this game...
It looked like Bibby had a black eye the couple shots I saw of him sitting on the bench... I watched the repeat game later, and he did have a shiner.
What was up with Finley trying to eves drop into our huddle near the end of the game. He just weazled in there when Reggie called our guys over while refs were working on the shot clock bummer. Pretty funny seeing Mikki trying to box him out so he couldn't listen. Everyone kinda looked over at Finley like wtf?
Beno has been very cool taking time to talk to Grant and Jerry after the games. He's not too bad an interview either.
