Welcome fellow Kings fans! (Thanks for the reminder, dime dropper)

Winter has come to the forest. It snowed yesterday most of the day, turning to rain last night and today. There's still a smattering of snow on the ground, but luckily I don't think it will affect either my power or my satellite dish.

This is the "terrible" PBP thread ;), where I force all of you to read - against your will - MY impressions of the Kings game. You ... will ... read!

(Sorry, but I couldn't resist...)

While following this thread is one way to check the progress of the game, it's not the only option here at Kingsfans.com In addition to the PBP, you are encouraged to participate in piksi's game discussion thread. Our dear piksi is an acquired taste, but one you'll find yourself addicted to in a short period of time... :)

In addition, we have a pretty lively game-time CHAT going on at mIRC. Hosted by the inimitable Mr. S£im Citrus, the chat is located at server irc.bludgeon.org. The channel is #Kingsfans.

You can really keep busy if you are reading the PBP, chatting at mIRC and making comments in the game discussion thread. You certainly won't be bored.

As always, I'd like to mention that this thread - and EVERYTHING here at Kingsfans.com - is possible because of the dedication and generosity of our board owner, Jeremy. We are very proud of being the most active Kings message board on the Internet and it's thanks to all the people who like what we have here that make it that way. We don't require people to register to read our threads. If you want to participate, registration is free and relatively painless. If you want to do more, however, then you can consider becoming a Contributing Member You get a nifty larger avatar, you get to create your own custom title AND you get the satisfaction of knowing you've helped defray a little of the cost of keeping KF.com up and running. What more could you ask?

My beverage of choice for tonight will, once again, be Gevalia French Vanilla coffee. I've got a great fire going in the wood stove, so it's nice and toasty warm...

Tonight is going to be an important game for a lot of reasons. Charlotte is young and agressive, with Gerald Wallace playing the best basketball of his NBA career. He's coming into Arco where, if tradition is any indication, he could well have a career night. It certainly wouldn't be the first time.

...Slightly OT: If anyone has a picture of the NEW black jerseys being sold in the team store, PLEASE post it. I've heard about them from Kingsgurl and I got a quick glimpse of one during the last House Party Live. I may just want to add a black #42 to my jerseys if it's available...

A few more hours until game time. Let's all think good thoughts like...

Go Kings!!!

NOTE: The person who just put the "one star" on this thread REALLY should have made sure someone else was viewing the thread at the same time. At least now I KNOW why it's being done.

Thanks, STF15 and Bball but I don't know exactly what they look like because I've only seen a glimpse of one.

That's why I'm really hoping someone will be able to show a picture of the ones hanging in the store at Arco because that's what I'll be buying if they're what I think they are.

Check out the thread in the Lounge "There is No Topic" for a picture of the black jersey currently being sold in the team store and, apparently, elsewhere.

No, but there's a really nifty tree farm in Challenge. The people are wonderful there. Just tell them "the Kings fan" sent you. They'll know who you mean.

:D

Peja will play...

They just showed a clip of Bonzi, praising Peja for being the best player on the team and saying how everyone now can go back to their regular role.

And now Peja, saying he'll play tonight because the x-ray was negative, blah, blah, blah.

Grant is pretty much spoon-feeding questions to Peja, who says "I don't read the newspapers so I just heard a few comments. Sometimes when you're hurt you just have to sit out for a couple of games and get well. I'm a professional basketball player and I treat everyone nice, including the media...blah, blah, blah."

And Grant says..."Well, you're the professional and you know when you can play, right?" And more stuff from Peja.

EARTH TO KINGS: Cool it, dudes. You're making too big a deal out of all these denials.

And now, Peja - speaking on how much Gerald Wallace has improved.

Lord, give me strength.

Peja - do your talking on the court. DO NOT talk to the media, even Grant. It will only bite you in the posterior.

If that whole sequence WASN'T orchestrated by the same front office who gave us the "gold standard," I'll eat the Ponderosa Pine right outside my front door.
