^^^ Arent we 13-2 when Kevin scores more than 14???

 

[SacKings384]

Hey, SK just got the all-star slot for a guard for the night on NBA Fastbreak. The host and Greg Anthony giving him some props too

Ok, perhaps I've been missing something. But two questions...

1.Who is SK?

2.And what is the whole BMD (I think it is? Or something like that, it has something to do with the Centers always killing us)

 

[AleksandarN]

I would never trade Bonzi the way he is playing. Reboudning the ball, bringing his toughness, and the post up combo with Artest. keep that combo, because it is DEADLY.

PLus, Garcia and Martin will make the bench finally have depth since they are getting better and better each game.

Seriously there is not enough playing time between SG and SF if we have both Ron and Bonzi starting. Also no guarantee that Bonzi would sign with us and at a reasonable contract. We did not want to get stuck with a big contract we have enough of them. Just looking at the economics of situation I do not think the Kings will resign Bonzi at the end of year anyways.

Special K, one of Martin's nick-names or past nick-names. Forgot he's being called A1 now (And 1).

2. No idea?

 

[VF21]

Uhm, VF, I think you might have read that wrong... I read it as him saying that the feat, in itself, is "nuts." As in a good thing.

Oh...

...

...

never mind.

The one way it could work would be if Cisco actually DID turn out to be abel to play the backup PG for us.

Then you have mayeb 10 minutes behind Ron, maybe 15 behind Bonzi, and another 10 behind Bibby. Split those between Kevin and Cisco, Kevin as the 6th man, Cisco as a versatile 1/2/3 backup, and you can keep everybody and have those 5 guys -- Artest, Bonzi, Bibby, Martin, Cisco eat up all of the little man minutes. Then it would just be a question of getting in some actually big "bigs".

But that scenario only works if Cisco gets to add backup PG to his resume permanently.

Anyone? I'm guessing if it is indeed those letters Big Man something?

The way he is playing...is he playing solitiare on the bench with Slamson. 20 missed games.

I agree. Garcia and Martin are doing great, but we really need Bonzi. With Artest and him playing together, we are ferocious. The kids can do good coming in as starters when we have players down and coming off the bench with good minutes to give us the spark we need and carry us when needed. I sure miss Bobby though, man does that guy have skills. He started off slow and man did he get hot fast and was pretty much unstoppable.

 

[Burrito06]

I was at the game tonight and the fans made it feel like the old Arco was back. I had gone to 2 other games before tonight and during those games, I was saying to myself, man these fans are really sucking lately but tonight was just electric. The fans definitely deserve an A. I also liked the fact that Mike contributed in other areas like assists and rebounds even though he had an off night shooting. Brad was clutch down the stretch and K-Mart was hot in the beginning. Overall great game, from the coaching, to the players and the fans.

 

[GoGoGadget]

A+ to Slamson's DEVO outfit tonight.

 

[West_Gunslinger16]

Ladies and Gentlemen, tonight Brad gave us the reason why not to trade him. I hope he plays like that everynight!

Agreed. With that killer lineup we have the chance to beat top teams like Detroit and San Antonio. We fans are getting optimistic every game they win.

 

[mbkings10]

How did Artest look tonight? Does he still look like he is in great pain. He had a solid game indeed, but hopefully he will get better.

 

[Kings113]

Didn't look in pain or as ginger, but was a few times, and was in pain after a fast break dunk (grimaced). But after that, not that I remember.

 

[BonziFan]

Miller ( A ) -- He fouled out until Violet Palmer of all people came running to the rescue for the overrule. And Brad, who picked up a technical arguing the overruled 6th foul (which was odd -- you get a technical for arguing a foul the refs eventually decided was not a foul after all? A T for being right?)

I am pretty sure the technical was for the elbow to Cardinal, not for arguing.

 

[Kings113]

Cardinal got a PF.

 

[Sac.Kings]

i didn't realize that the Grizzlies only allowed like 87 ppg, and we dropped 104 on them last night

 

[Kings113]

Yep, they've held that basically all season.

Grizz have indeed cooled off in 2006, didn't think it would be this bad though, as they're 3-11 in their last 13 games.

That's what I have been thinking for a while but never put it down so well. These 5 should be our core backcourt next year.

Trade Hart, KT/Corliss, the ball boy and the bones buried under ARCO for an athletic big, who's, well, big and athletic and has some talent (or draft picks who can get us the same thing).

Miller ( A ) -- came back with the injured thumb and got off to a dynamic start...defensively! In fact was even a point there in the second quarter when we brought Brad back for defense. ...

hahaha love it.
