The Kings simply didn't put it together for four quarters in Denver on Saturday. If they had, they would have earned that first road win of the seaon. Costly turnovers, a little too much one-on-one and horrible officiating on both ends of the court all played a part, however, in contributing to yet another road loss.
The Kings will face the Milwaukee Bucks and latest Chinese sensation, Yi Jianlin, Monday night back in Arco. They then hit the road for a cold loop through Boston, Philadelphia, Washington, New Jersey and Milwaukee before heading back to Arco for a night before the night before Christmas game against the Nuggets.
With Kevin and Mike out most likely until mid- to late-January, we have to hope for control and consistency from Beno, Douby and Garcia. Beno Udrih, at least, has been a welcome surprise. As he continues to get familiar with the other members of the team, he's in line to be a valuable asset off the bench once Mike comes back.

Remember - tickets are available for every Kings game. Taking someone to a Kings game is still a lot of fun. The kids are trying their best. The support of the Arco faithful is a pat on the back for their efforts.
Now, let's get ready for some Kings basketball.
GO KINGS!!!
