while this is absolutely true - it is the part of the problem. A team where SAR is the man - will not make a PO. Now if we had someone (or 2) the SAR would just complement too - different story. Back to the begining of the season This team will go as far as Mike and pedja can "carry" it - which is nowhere good

Actually, if we want to talk semantics - I'm from Canada and grew up in Georgia.
I just happen to reside in Texas.
I would? Thank you for explaining to me exactly how I would respond. I'm glad you know how I would and should act better than I know myself.
Do you realize how condesencing that is?
I have ALWAYS liked Chris Webber. Before Shareef, my cousin loved Webber. This was before I really watched the NBA. But, I watched Webber with him and followed him.
I've got a HUGE soft spot for him.
Comparitively it's nothing compared to the sport i've got for Reef ... so when people start saying Chris Webber, as if Reef isn't doing a good job ... I get damn defensive. I'm NOT going to say he's matured and all that nonsense.
Thanks though.
Sorry, dude, but it isn't a shtick and your arrogance and lack of basketball acumen (and general tact) is quite tiresome.

Reef grabs 9.5REB per 48.
Reef allows 10.0REB per 48.
Webber grabs 12.5 REB per 48.
Webber allows 11.0 REB per 48.
Webber is DEFINITELY a better rebounder ... no question. It wasn't a question before the season, it won't be one after ... it isn't one now.
So, go ahead and make yourself clear or cloudy.
The issue though is NOT that Reef's weak rebounding numbers are killing us.

I'm not sure I'm willing to concede that.
It's quite possibly true.
But, I'm sure if the right cast is there supporting Reef's efforts - this statement is invalid.
Surround Reef with some defenders and I think this statement is false. Right now we've got a million and one scorers and no real defenders.
Of course, all that COULD be wishful thinking. I just think Reef is a good enough scorer to get it done ... the issue isn't there. The issue is the pieces with him.
If you've got Reef as a key cog, you NEED a big bodied, mean SOB at center.

FWIW, from what I've seen of SAR, he's a *very* good player. But he's not a franchise type player. The Kings don't have a franchise type player.
The fact that Shareef is on the team now is not the reason the Kings are doing poorly, not by a long shot. The Kings don't have a leader and they don't have a bench. They have a lot of good complementary pieces, but no one to play around.
Shareef would be fantastic coming off the bench behind Webber... if only!

Okay, champ. I'm ignorant.
Kind of like how I didn't know what a Princeton Offense was. Everyone told me how wrong I was until Brick came behind and said the same thing. Then everyone changed their tune.
Yeah, I'm dumb.
That's funny.
You're trying to insult me by saying your team sucks. That's quite funny.

1. I'm not a dude.
2. You have already been removed from this board once.
3. I have been a Kings fan since 1985. I'm not some Johnny-come-lately player fan who arrived when his favorite player came to the team and all of a sudden decided he knew more than any of the loyal fans who have been here a long time, talking about the team, sharing highs and lows, etc.
NOTE: I generally have nothing against player fans whatsoever, but it's you - and your alter ego "cousin" - who have, right from the beginning made it clear that you think you and you alone know more about team than any of us who have bled purple for years and years.
You really need to give some credit to people who have followed the Kings a lot more closely than you have.
Peace. Merry Christmas.

Look I hate to do it, I really do, but this team is now close to being the worst team in the entire Western conference. They can't beat even the worst teams with any consistancy, and they have been a sub .500 team since Feb 23rd of last year, I hate to say I told you so...but seriously This team sucks right now, and it's not fun to watch. I'm pissed off, and I think I have a right to be. This team is straight up awful and there is really no way around it at this point. I can't point out why I think that is? I told everyone this would happen, and now it is, WTH should I say?
