First home loss of the season was made up by a first road win of the season. In a hard fought battle of the titans, Clippers held off all Kings attempts to give the game away and proudly took an important loss making Kings improve to 4-5 for the season with a chance to even get to above .500 with Suns and Spurs coming up playing some very inconsistent BB or just plain and simple - sucking (Spurs).

Piksi's pow(d)er ranking
Kings dropping fast in the lottery rankings - winning against another direct opponent on the road. At this stage of the season - 4 wins are just too many. Maybe JT has a twin brother at #13 because that is where we are heading
Playoffs chances are still at 0%
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Watching space jam long time ago - I had no idea that it was actually based on a true story - The Clippers. It is just incredible what this franchise is capable off in terms of sucking. Natural born losers with a curse. It is irrelevant what kind of talent they have and who the coach is. They are Clippers and by default - that sucks. I am convinced that even id the roster would be made out of the dream team from 1992 in their prime - Clippers would still find a way to underachieve, winning 40 games and missing the post season in the last game of the season in quadruple overtime with a full court buzzer beater by Mikki Moore. Sure - it sounds impossible the Jordan, Magic and co. would do much better but the Clippers uniform is the cryptonite for all basketball players.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
How many more wins will it take for someone to develop a brilliant idea that Kings play better without Kevin Martin ? Someone has to come up with it - because that is a tradition amongst Kings fans. You know - along the lines of other players getting more shots, Beno doesn't have to defer, Salmons plays better defense and so on. Come on people - we need something irrelevant to distract us from good and bad things that are happening with Kings these days.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Good things like emergence of a pair of young and pretty tall kids (at least for Kings standards) contributing significantly when the opportunity is presented, and other "young" guys that need to get more PT, are definitely encouraging. We need more of that every single night.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Bad things like too many wins, veteran presence, Mikki Moore, John Salmons, Mikki Moore, poor coaching, Mikki Moore starting, rebounding, scoring, playing, being in the NBA, dropping attendance, Mikki Moore, John Salmons, injuries to Kevin and Cisco, Mikki Moore, no defense, Mikki Moore and other will be there for a while hopefully no longer that the day when thos 382 MLE contracts that we have - expire.;
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Last in attendance huh ? Well at least we lead NBA in something (who is the optimist now ?
). Not hard to explain. Sucky Arena + sucky team + suck economy = sucky attendance. Kings fans have watched world class basketball for more or less 5-6 years and the patience is running out because the glory days have been replaced by a "TDM all star team" or the "MLE retirement home" allstars. These days - people just don't have money to waste on mediocrity which btw we aren't even close to. The organization has to give hope and earn the trust back by making smart decisions like por example ban the term "MLE" and shoot anyone who mentions it.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
What else needs to be said about the last game except that we were good enough to beat them by 20+ points but we didn't know how and they were bad enough to not take whet we were giving them all night long. It ruins it for me. You play a solid game, You dominate - just close it out. Don't choke and self destruct. Despite good effort - we only won because we played the Clippers and their tradition of sucktitude because we played similar game with Pistons the other night and they took what we gave them.
----------------------------------------------------------------
AWARD TIME
TDM went to Tim Thomas. He needed a solid game and we gave it to him
LW-VC went to BD who was owned by Beno on a "who is Your dady" level
RA&1 to the caveman. Those GEICO comercials are influencing him in a bad way. 8 pts 6 rb 4 TOs is way too pathetic for a guy who had a 20/20 game against us at least couple times
JHA - John Salmons. Took a lot of bad shots, missed most of them, hogged the ball all the time. Just awfull.
Mikki goes to Mikki. A forward that has 5 more fouls than rebounds in 23 minutes - what can You say. No defensive rebounds in 23 minutes when opponent is shooting 42%. How do You do that ??? I don't get it.
WTF moment of the game - the last 5 minutes when both teams tried to lose it as hard as they could but at the end Clippers experience prevailed.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Suns are our chance to hit the mediocrity mark at .500 for the first time this season. Only thing we have to do is contain Amare which can happen if Mikki gets into a foul trouble. Suns aren't playing well. Nash suck these days. They suck in offense and defense. The best strategy is to make Mikki foul out playing hack a shaq and the bring in KT to do the same. At least they would earn their many doing something useful for the team.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Brad - vs Shaq - should be fun
Mikki - fouls out again but doubles his rebounding efforts
Kevin - get well soon
Beno - hell yeah
Salmons - please ask for a trade
Hawes & JT - keep it up kids
rest - mateen
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Suns are 6-3 but 4-1 on the road coming up from a home loss to the Rockets scoring only 82 points where Hill and Nash played poorly like Iverson did before playing Kings. I expect Amare to go for 40, Barnes to win TDM just because Barbosa is not eligible. Speaking of Barbosa - scary. LW-VC goes to Bell. I think that Suns will be looking to make up the home loss and while we will be in the game - we won't win it.
