Highly agree with most of that.
After this loss, I saw all the usual type of threads come up. Like this one, the purple-tinted glasses one, two-glaring weaknesses, scrub career-high thread (haven't seen one of those type of threads or discussion in awhile, actually), posts in the playoff thread/grades thread.
Have to remember that Kevin/Bonzi we were without, that's a bunch of points, athleticism, hustle, rebounding, defense and keys to how we've played well - gone.
If you actually think this is a championship caliber team right now, then more power to you.
I have been a fan of the Kings since they first stepped foot into Sacramento. I have seen BAD teams. I have blessed to see GOOD teams and we're always talking about THE team. I think I was being pretty honest in my evaluation of the current group in the purple-tinted glasses thread.
There's nothing wrong with accepting that your team has weaknesses. Yes, we'll scream our heads off and be ecstatic when they win, but I'm not going to put money on their chances in the playoffs.
N.U.F.A.N. hasn't said anything earth-shattering. What was pointed out was that fans change their minds. Well, doh... That happens between the first and fourth quarters of games, let alone between games or weeks.
People come here to vent, they come here to celebrate. They'll be happy and on cloud nine after a victory, and depressed and sad after a loss - especially a loss that looked as bad as last night.
Through it all, they still remain fans. If some people don't want to read about the failings, etc. of the team they should simply state away after a loss...
