Yeah, my blame game of the night goes to John "KOBE BRYANT" Salmons who decided to dribble into traffic despite seeing a wide open Spencer Hawes in the corner. This team has been like the worst to be a fan of the last few years, not because we don't win. In that case there are plenty of worse teams to be into like the Knicks, the reason I say we are the worst is in the fashion that we lose in. I seriously think the Kings have lead the league in last second heart breakers for the past three years. Almost every game comes down to a play like that, and we pull out the win in maby 1 in 20 tries. Sweet Lord.
At least they're close. That makes them bearable. I remember - along with a lot of others around here - when the Kings lost a boatload of games on a regular basis by double-digit figures where the first number was as often as not liable to be a 2 and not a 1.
Hard to watch??? This is a parade compared to days gone by...

Are you serious? Are you Mikki's wife? The guy averages 5 rebounds a month and 1 blk every 2 years. Yet he is the guy that should be on the court in the final minute becuase.... He can stand there with his hands straight up better than anybody?? Unfourtunatley he also does the same when recieveing a pass. 6 TO's tonight Hell he almost lost that last rebound with nobody around.
It doesn't break my heart. And it's not wasted effort if the kids continue to improve. Spencer Hawes played HUGE tonight and that alone made it worthwhile for me.
I'm sorry if you're so hurt but I just cannot share your pain. Pain is watching a team that doesn't care, has no hope for the future and no reason to do anything but sit back and collect their collective paychecks. I've seen that team; I've even seen it in Kings uniforms and it's not pretty.
This game may not have elicited a W but it kept my attention. I guess we'll have to agree that we have conceptually different viewpoints.
GO KINGS!!!

When it comes to the growth of our team, no its not better to lose by twenty. When it comes to my personal welfare and not moving another step towards killing myself, then yes, i would rather lose by twenty. These types of losses kill me inside, especially when all the other fans go around saying we suck and the next game against us is gonna be easy, because all they see is the big fat L instead of how hard we played. Then im like, ok yay, they won't be expecting much and we'll surprise them the next game, and it turns out we do. We surprise them with a hard fought game they weren't expecting only to be crushed once again by a star player and a failed game winning shot and then it comes around full circle.
Seriously, it's much better in the long run to make sure they're completely healed than to bring them back too quickly.
It's been reported that Cisco is very close. The problem with Kevin isn't his ankle any longer. From what has been reported, there's fluid collecting in the tendon behind the ankle. You don't mess with something like that...
You really don't think they want to be back as soon as possible and that the team doesn't miss them?

Don't get me wrong, in the big picture i share the same view as you. I just get really emotional and its hard for me to lose like this every single night. But seriously, the Kings are the only franchise to not make the finals in the last 50 years! And thats going back to Rochester days obviously. The only other teams who haven't made the finals are teams who were founded in the 70's 80's 90's and 00's. Im just wondering how long its going to be before we see the Kings in the finals, if ever. I know you've endured alot of days as a Kings fan and alot of bad ones at that, your used to losing like this. I however have not had the displeasure of going through a rebuilding phase since im only 17 and ive only been a serious Kings fan since 2000, I'm used to winning, and seeing our team fall apart the last 3 years flat out sucks. Yeah, im excited about our players, I love hawes, next to Martin he's my favorite player now. But i can't help but think that even when we do get good again its gonna be all for not. I can't see us contending again, like we did a few years ago, for a long time. Before 2000 it took us 20 years to make it just past the first round and im scared its gonna get back to that. Just try not to be so hard ma kay, i get the point.
