The "Sucks" yet again have proven - how unique they are in the NBA league by dominantly out sucking the masters of sucking in the NBA - the Heat. "Sucks" started a losing streak and dropped to 26-30 maintaining their consistent inconsistency which is unheard of these days. We are 8 games away from the post season spot
in which range is every other team but the Heat in the Leastern conference. Kings fell to 1-2 on this trip with a back to back night in Atlanta coming up and a date with Mavs on Friday to complete the "masochist week only" special.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is hard to put this sad performance in perspective so I am going to try to us reverse analogy here. Follow me for a second here. Imagine someone beating Roger Federer on grass in 3 easy sets or beating Tiger Woods by 20 strokes difference at a major tournament. Pretty had to do and it would be a sensation. Now, if You totally reverse that - You get us losing to the Heat by 21 points without firing a single bullet in the fight. If You lost me somewhere - we suck.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
We didn't fire a single bullet because we left our guns at the South Beach. Good to see that curfew is working so well. Being professional is a cliche anyways. Those are young people with lot of money which is guaranteed regardless of how bad You suck. And if You have ever been in Miami - like I have - You would realize that there are so many things that are more interesting and that have higher priority than a game between two pathetic teams not going anywhere this season.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Good thing about NBA is that it is fast life. Games are coming up quickly so that You have no time to be happy/sad for too long. There is always a next game, there is always tomorrow until April 15th. We don't have tome to be too depressed about the last night's performance because already tonight we have chance to do better mostly because we can't do worse even if we try. If we by any chance manage to do so Friday is just around the corner and we play in Dallas with another chance. Theory of big numbers worked for Heat last night. Iy will work for us too eventually.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
So why are we doing this to ourselves ? For many different reasons. Some people are just curious when they see a train wreck or an accident. Other people are masochists in the advanced stage where their pain tolerance is way beyond watching Robert Horry hitting that three over and over again. Some people just have nothing else to do as hard as it is to imagine it. Others are on the "until death do us apart" trip despite realizing that there isn't such a thing. Others are more liberal with that idea like "until death do us apart or my favorite player goes somewhere else." We are still okay for now. It can still get worse until reaching the ultimate level - being a laker fan.

Tonight is the first Bibby's game in Atlanta and he will be introduced to the Hawks fans and I think that all 12 of them will show up. In such a library atmosphere Kings will try to play spoiler even though what we would be spoiling here. Maybe, just maybe both teams will play hard this time and the game will be more watchable. We will see how Mike adjusted in a week since that is how long ago he was traded. Something is telling me that the 3 guys that we got for him won't get any ovations mostly because those 12 Hawks fans have no clue that they ever played there. Maybe some of them upon given playing time will try to prove a point and light them up but if it isn't the Landlord - I am not interested.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spencer played well and had a career night. Should not remain unnoticed. Obviously at this stage any time when a 1,2 punch that we have consist of Spencer and Mikki - we will probably lose the way we lost last night. Now Mikki is lost cause but Spencer has shown potential especially on the offense since he still can't guard anyone. So we have seen what he can do provided minutes and touches. Won't happen every night even though it should since we are still playing to win but hopefully, it will happen more often because things like that make the season more bearable. Keep it up Spencer !
------------------------------------------------------------------------
As expected - we lost to the worst of the worst last night and not only that we lost but how we did it - is just sad and pathetic and so on. There is no need to look at stats or reasons for what happened. It is too obvious. We did't show up and didn't compete and didn't even try. We would have lost to the girls middle school team last night but so would have the Heat. This is a major setback for the championship hopes that we had this season. Just don't tell Ron

AWARD TIME
TDM went to Barron whih is a ferfect hit since I never heard of him before
LW-VC went to Banks and it is a weak one too
JHA goes to Cisco even though the circumstances weren't favoring him either
SAR - Methuselah went to Ron who tried to be Wade except that he isn't
WTF moment of the game includes everything that happened between tipoff and the final buzzer.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We are going to do better tonight since we can't do worse even if we tried too. Hawks aren't any good either and as they say the first home game after the long road trip is the hardest. So You add to it the fact that 2 lottery teams will play each other and the excitement is on the climax. Both teams will play hard and whoever wins is going to benefit just as much as the other team.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Beno - finally no turnovers
Kevin - any time now
Brad - didn't he use to average 20/20 at one stretch
Mikki - perfect timing
Ron - there goes Your shot at the title
Hawes - very nice
Landlord - also
QD - not too horrible
rest mateen
Coach T - way to get them prepared coach !
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hawks @ 22-32 and 15-11 at home need a win in the worst way and they will also look for a payback from week ago. You add to that the fact that Bibby is playing the first game in front of the home crowd and only thing that You can conclude out of this is that Kings should win this easily just as it was clear that we were going to lose the game last night. They gave some talent and lot of garbage. Childress will get the TDM. Smith gets the LW-VC award. Other awards will be given and Kings win this game in a close finish in which Hawks long experience in choking down the stretch comes trough
