[Game] Game 35: Sacramento Kings vs. OKC Thunder, 1/7/14 7PM PST, 10PM EST

thanks. I didn't really see anything there other than his usual face. I would guess he's been under a bit of stress and was feeling more relief than jubilation
Yeah, and it totally could be me and a few others just reading too much into it. He does typically have a pretty serious demeanor at games. I guess with the relief of a much needed win, I was expecting some sort of smile or fist pump or something.

When I get home tonight I can replay the game and try to snap a screen shot or two. The guy next to him was really excited and gave him a high five, and Vivek wasnt smiling and had a serious look on his face. I know thats not very descriptive, but hopefully pictures help.

The general vibe across the team, fans, announcers was relief and satisfaction with a solid win. He just didnt appear very pleased.
He's almost always stone faced.

Yikes. And she's torn between watching the Warriors and the Kings?o_O
She was with Vivek with the Warriors in the Bay Area, and really puts across the SF vibe. I don't want to sound catty, but I do not think her affection for the Kings or the fans is anything more than part of her job.

note: I have never met her. This is just the impression I've developed based on reading her tweets for over a year.

Agreed! And judging by her tweets, she doesn't understand basketball very well either.

Leslie followed me for about 5 minutes last night right after I replied to her "told you so" tweet. We had a pleasant chit chat about dogs. Then I got the email that said "you have a new follower" and I was kind of glad to be honest because I kind of like her to be honest. Then I guess she read some of my profane anti-PDA rant tweets and unfollowed pretty quick lol. Oh well, I guess she and I won't be DM'ing each other with recipes and stuff after all :)

I think she does her job well - it is a cutthroat "take bullets for the boss" kind of job and she's a cutthroat thick skinned clever edgy type well cut out for it I think. I remember fondly when she was dissing Andre Igoudala after his WOW!!! and REALLY?? tweets. But it is not an enviable job to be supporting Vivek (and PDA) at this moment. I will be watching with interest to see how she handles it when PDA leaves some day. I think he will be ground under her boot heel pretty quick. Right now it is her job to take some bullets for a stupid decision by her boss and his idiot gerbil puppet though.
