we were 1-19 from downtown.

at what point do you ask realize that the shots are not falling ?

what does it take ?

1-30 or 1 - 40 or 1 - 50 what ?
 
They lost as a TEAM. Go down the list. They all made mistakes that cost us the game. Let's NOT start the blame game. We lost. It stinks. No one player lost it for us..

What were the chance of winning this game? 2nd night of a back-to-back, after an OT game, while traveling, and while the Grizz rested at home. Yes, we had a lot of chances, because the Grizz were stinking it up, but the Kings seemed just too tired to capitalize. :(
The game was there for the taking though. Can't blame it on fatigue. Good teams find ways to win, and Kings could not execute.

No kidding...although when they did go to the rim at the end...no go there either. Great D by the Grizz. Aren't they the the best or one of the best defensive teams, especially at home?

They just said Bonzi will be back for the next game. Course that means working him back into the mix.

No I'm sorry... The Kings can't afford "We're tired" anymore... Almost all the games are on the road, and excuses aren't going to work anymore. It's no longer just "one game". A loss now to a Grizzlies team that shot like ****, played awful, and got outrebounded, is now a loss we can no longer use on the likes of a San Antonio or a Dallas. It's one less loss the Kings are granted for the tougher teams, it's one less loss the Kings can have period.

Who the heck said it was an excuse? They were tired and that is a fact. Of course we cannot afford any losses.....but, they are going to happen. Be miserable about it, everyone. It is a choice.:rolleyes:
 
Is it just me or....? I'm getting awfully tired of SAR crying for a foul on so many of his missed shots and yelling at the refs for almost every foul called on him. He was right on that one call, but he needs to knock it off. It is not going to help.

Thank you 6th. There is a difference between excuses and reasons (facts). Besides, I haven't heard ANY of the Kings making exuses after any of the loses, legitimate or not.
 
We could have won this game, 25-28 looks a lot better to me than 24-29, even if it is only 1 game. Instead of being 5 games under .500 they could have been only 3 under, but you can't win them all (at least we didn't get blown out, which to tell you the truth, I expected)

I've noticed this too. I mean the refs never change their calls, he needs to just get back on D or something not get a technical.

Dang though, we did get ripped by the refs IMO. Nice effort, holding Memphis to below 90 on their home court is impressive.
 
Watched the game, Kings looked awful tired. Nothing was falling. 1-19 from 3 is pretty damn awful. No legs killed Artest.....Bibby too. Huge nights last night led to horrible night tonight. K. Martin 4th foul really hurt too.

i did too, because thats our pattern, but ya win some, ya lose some, hope they all rest on all star break
 
Very tough loss tonight. I'm not getting down on the season yet, and Bonzi Wells should be coming back next week (he was in warm-ups at the Chicago game). We've seen one game (Utah was a mess, and only a half or quarter 1/2) where we technically had Bonzi and Artest, but both were not at full strength, and we still played well (Bonzi was off offensively, but that was expected).
