And if that doesn't get you excited for the future as a Kings fan. you need to just let them start throwing the dirt over you.

Wow!

I think something pretty big is our first game against this same team they beat us easily.

It feels this team has really improved quickly since then, very nice to see.

Gotta love it!

T-Mac is scheduled to return to action Nov. 18 - so we will not have to worry about him on Friday - but get him on the upcoming road trip to Houston. Hopefully, he takes time to work off the rust.

The fans will start to come back. The whole fan decline was predicted by Bricklayer, who has been (as much as I dislike saying it) pretty accurate in predicting how a rebuild could go if things started to go right.

He said build a team (that shows effort and is young and exciting) and they will come.

Like you said, the fans will come back. I expect to see a huge increase next home game. Being a .500 team instead of a losing team makes a huge difference in the eyes of the average ticket buying fan.

And being a team with heart and hustle, energy and excitement (my buzz words from last year) makes a tremendous difference, too!

I think these guys will try no matter what :D Jason Thompson can play better than this. He will get more shots to go in around the bucket as the season progresses. Tyreke is unbelievable what is this only 8 games played for him. Casspi comes in when we need the 3 to drop. I think the coach is figuring out how to use people. Plus we all know Spence can play better than this as well...... G O KINGS !!!!
No Martin, No Garcia........this is only the beginning.....
4-4?????????

We just beat the team that beat Orlando by 30. Tyreke 2ast and 2reb from a triple double. JT with yet antother double double.

The best thing is we are winning and you can see LOADS of room for improvment. Missed layups, careless turnovers, poor spacing at times, Also we were only 2-14 from behind 3pt line. yeah this is going to be nice for at least the next 3 or 4 years as Reke, Hawes, Thompson, Casspi, Greene continue to grow with Garcia and Martin being wiley vets by then. This is awsome basketball. No quit in this team at all. Thank god for a true coach.

Agreed. Looks like the foundation of a solid team if we can get more help at the guard (deep, but needs improvement) and center (very thin) positions.

Maybe GP sees the promise in this team right now that he may see it worth looking for a trade that helps us this year. I know we won't get a championship but a push for the
8th seed in the playoffs would be a goal this young team and something feed the hunger of the fans going into next year.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS so stoked with this win, another one - great stat line from reke, i love this team. Finally some continuity long may it continue. By the looks of it caspi and greene were solid again as were spence and JT. Great news just coming out of a uni final.

Did reke & noc shutdown westbrook & durant or was it more of a team effort ?, great D considering the thunder were playing well of late

****ing espn. just showed the highlights of our game. 5 segments. 4 of them were Durant making us looked stupid with 3's and a few and 1's. Only highlight was our last offensive play when Casspi got the dunk. then it was like oh yeah the kings won. Eh I guess we are a ways away from that kinda of respect yet.
