    Arco Arena here I come

    Something I heard on the radio in Sacramento... "The best place to eat in Sacramento is San Francisco." Oh man, that was harsh... but funny at the time. But I'm not to sure about places to eat. I'm definitley not an expert in all things culinary. I have eaten at PF Chang's though. I wasn't...

    Coaching Staff that never makes adjustments

    Yeah, Rick Adelman got outcoached on this one, hands down. But this was the second night of a back to back. Besides fatigue of the players, there is also the disadvantage of not being able to practice the day before the game. Not being able to practice the day before means a solid game plan...

    Grades v. Sonics 03/21

    Eh, not if we're winning... I'd rather someone else shoot the rock if he's just going to force a 3-12 with 4 TO's... but that's just me. But I agree with everything else... he hasn't been at his best lately, but I think he'll be fine. And with him playing well, they actually get much better...

    Grades v. Sonics 03/21

    Man, everyone is being so hard on SAR. I agree, he's sort of invisible out there as of late, but I think no impact is better than a negative impact. He did make a couple of nice passes for easy layups and he made a nice midrange jumper... I didn't think he was THAT bad! I don't know, maybe I'm...

    It's As Serious As Making The Playoffs..

    Wow, that's bold. But eh... why not? If you make a crazy prediction like that and it comes true, you look like a genius. If it doesn't come true, oh well... I can't imagine this having any negative effects, even long term. Now if you're a favorite and you start saying stuff like that, that's...

    Pacers win

    I don't think the team is that depending on Ron (as far as his performance night in and night out) at all. What I mean to say by that, is, he's had some pretty horrendous shooting performances and games where he's just looked like he didn't feel so hot and the Kings still came out on top. I...

    Will Adleman.....

    I don't know about you guys, but I love SAR and Bonzi coming off the bench. Suddenly, I'm not afraid of what happens when someone comes off the bench like I was when the likes of Jason Hart was. With SAR, you have a consistent scorer (when he gets healthy) off the bench, which we didn't have...

    Artest has Kings back in playoff hunt

    Wow, that's amazing. We didn't get this much positive press from the national sports media even when we were very good. I know I'm excited about this team. GO KINGS!

    Was It Realy Peja's Fault For The Kings Poor Start To The Season?

    Yeah, I don't blame Peja for the terrible play so much as I credit Artest for turnaround. It wasn't HIS fault, it was everyone's fault. However, if Peja were still on the team, I think we'd be in a different situation than we are now. But, he's been pretty successful with Indiana, so it looks...

    Bonzi on 1140 this morning

    Yes yes. He's provided everything we've needed from that position besides shot blocking. Hustle and rebounding every single game. Lately, he's been knocking down that 17 foot jumper and not turning the ball over too, which is pretty much a bonus. Great stretch from Kenny... Now, back on...

    Bonzi on 1140 this morning

    But that player simply does not exist outside of players that are completely untouchable. Shaq/Duncan are not going anywhere. Artest/Reef/Bonzi are pretty damn good with their backs to the baskets. Lack of a low post presence isn't one of our fundamental problems right now. Well, unless you...

    Active Vs. Reactive Game Plan

    I thought I posted a while ago, but I guess I messed it up somehow. But yeah, I like to lurk when I'm bored off my tail at work.:) What? Accuse me of not working! How dare you! :D

    Active Vs. Reactive Game Plan

    Very true. But I certainly don't want the coach to come up with a game plan and mindlessly stick with it even though it's obvious it isn't working. On the other hand, I would like some strategy before the players take the court. So I vote both. :)

    Active Vs. Reactive Game Plan

    This is sort of a silly poll. Every team goes in with a game plan, both defensive and offensive that's created through careful observation via scouting (usually by the assistants). Sometimes it works and requires only minor adjustments. Sometimes you throw it away at half time (or earlier) and...
