Hall of Famer
Another trip to the memory lane - On February 9th 1999 Kings won in Phoenix 112 - 95. it was a first road victory and a first above .500 record in Adelman era. Webber was huge again with 26/20/6/3bl, JWill had 22/5/5, Corliss had 18/8, Vlade had 11/7/7 and TAW had 13/4. pedja had 13/5/3st of the bench. Kings won all 4 quarters.
"Our game plan was to move the ball, get to the open guy, run and get back on defense and to make sure where everybody was
especially Kidd and Gugliotta," Webber said. "We feel we can run with anybody. And then when we got out in front, we wanted to slow it down and be a smart team."
---------------------------------------------------------------
Kings 21 - 27 taking care of business at home.Another winning streak was started and hopefully - it will last longer than usual (3 games max). Kings also still last in the pacific but Warriors are getting very close. Also other teams ahead of us are not tearing up so Kings are still in the mix. 6 games home winning streak looks finally like Kings of old but Kings will not make up any ground at home. Only way to make up ground is the road and Kings still need to prove that they are capable on winning away from ARCO. They badly failed so far
----------------------------------------------------------------
Never a dull moment around here. While we are winning the game on Tuesday night - we were 'trading" Bonzi, Brad, etc. Makes no
sense. Most of the time it takes at least one bad game for "trade talks" to start. Now, it is down to a bad possesion. "We" are willing to trade a player because of a turnover. Grass just isn't any greener anywhere else folks, it just isn't.
---------------------------------------------------------------
We had some "twilight zone" moments last night - when we were grateful for the existance of Violet Palmer. The hell froze over instantly and they are still fixing it. Webber wouldn't have ever gotten that call - ever. Kings weren't supposed to get that call. We cheated the system here. We will pay for it. I don't know where and when and how but we will pay for it and it won't be cheap. (final destination)
---------------------------------------------------------------
It was great to see Bobby last night. it sucked to see an other team benifiting from his performance especially in times where Kings don't even have a backup PG. ARCO did it again as it was deserved and expected. it is hard not to miss bobby and not just as a player. We got a bit lucky that a "great coaching mind" Fratello decided to go with Atkins. Who know what would have happen otherwise because Bobby came to play and we knew he would. We will see each other again and soon. However, for me Bobby will always and forever be a King.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Kings made it awfully close last game. Kinda lucked out at the end but it was still a well deserved win. Warrick won the TDM award in the first half. Bobby was big, Gasol was solid but Miller was nowhere to be found. That is pretty much that Memphis had to offer. Keving was veru efficient and Brad came up big and won the game with 2 shots as big as they come. Just keep it up.
--------------------------------------------------------------
TNT game tonight so make sure You build up a tollerance level because You will need it. It will be annoying (Barkley) and we might end up with Steve Kerr but as long as we win - it will be worth it. Just hope - that there is no overtime in game 1.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Bulls are next and we caught a break here because they just finished a game in Denver. they will be tired and if we jump on them - we should be OK. They have good offensive rebounding - so we will have trouble. They are young and athletic. Darius will stop by to say "hi." Also we get a chance to see all the players that we didn't trade Pedja for. There will probably be some trade proposals as the game goes along
---------------------------------------------------------------
Mike - Bobby owned him but it wasn't enough. Mike did enough for us to win - meaning he gets one more chance befor being traded.
Brad - came back at the right time. Might have a hard time with Chandler tonight.
Bonzi - get well soon again preferably before the 23rd.
SAR - I hope the man gets a proper meal soon because - he earned it.
Ron - pills continue to work. Hope he feels better.
--------------------------------------------------------------
KT - finally had a good game minus turnovers. Do it again !
Kevin - scored 15+ - end of story
Garcia - nice game there Cisco.
Skinner - will probably lose a little PT that he had - soon
Hart - finally finding the role that he fits in the best
Corliss - who knows ?
Price/Sampson - Mateen
--------------------------------------------------------------
RA - drew up nice 2 plays to free up Brad at the 3pt line
late in the game
--------------------------------------------------------------
bulls have lost 4 straight on this 7 game trip before beating Nuggets. they will be tired tonight. Hard to pick a TDM favorite simply because it could be anybody. Will be a fun game to watch and Kings will win their 7 straight at ARCO
