Whine whine whine whine. All we do is whine, moan, and get in pissing contests with other people over completely trivial matters.
I speak of, of course, us as Kings fans. Over the span of ten years, we have gone from being one of the most passionate, diehard fanbases ever to grace professional sports to one of the whiniest and most gilded.
Countless people complain about how it hurts them to watch the games and how its a waste of time. Well, here's a little tip for you: If you don't want to watch it then DON'T WATCH. It's that simple. If you don't like spicy food, don't eat spicy food. If you don't like rap music then don't listen to rap! I know that this seems to be a simple concept but that is because it is.
Here is the deal: If that passion no longer burns inside, then stop pretending that it does. You're only hurting yourself. This advice applies to everything, not just basketball.

For the rest of us, the fans who are sticking ith it through thick and thin, I will say only this: It is always darkest before the dawn and the bad times like this make the good times seem all that much sweeter when they come. The Greatest Show on Court is dear to all of us only because of the collective "meh"-ness of what came before. I know it gets hard sometimes but you've got to have faith, you've got to believe.
Now, I don't feel like writing about that game. I'm pushing that out of my mind and only looking ahead.
The Mavs are a good team. I just want to see 48 minutes of coherent team basketball. Regardless of the results, I just want to see the team play hard. Play like a team. Play like the Kings.
As always,
GO KINGS!
