nevermind

 

[HndsmCelt]

are they still saying that Bibby is out for 2 months? any news on Artest's appeal?

Stern added 14 more games

 

[piksi]

Beceause he sucks less than Mikki?

point well taken

 

[piksi]

Stern added 14 more games

nope - he went straight to the death penalty

 

[creAtivetfh]

good to know that we are really good against their subs

 

[HndsmCelt]

nope - he went straight to the death penalty

Well if we can take his sallery off of the cap...

 

[piksi]

I would like to see the scouting report which states that it is a defensive scheme to leave Pedja open in the corner when the game isn't on the line

 

[fnordius]

I think it was 2 months if he didn't need surgery, but he did, my impression is that that adds another 2-3 weeks to the estimate.

I thought the initial report was 6 weeks?

So that pushes it to 8-9 weeks?

Some where a Kings scout is on the phone screaming "I said don't gaurd Pete... Not Pedja!"

 

[creAtivetfh]

Cisco is a black hole

 

[PurpleHaze]

Yes, but death penalty sentences are automatic appeal.

Anyway, I just switched off the TV game horror show and have been listening to G-Man on the radio call. He says the Kings have continued to fight back after digging themselves a deep hole against NOH. He just reminded that the next two games are road back-to-back against San Antonio and Dallas - good grief!

the box score says mikki moore took and missed a 3 pointer. please tell me this was a desperation half court buzzer beater attempt?

 

[creAtivetfh]

well me only lost by 14 points!

it was probably at the same time he was not getting rebounds

 

[Heuge]

Kings look like a pickup basketball team...ick

I got next.

 

[HndsmCelt]

Well I certainly did not expect a win with 2 starters out against a much improved Hornets team... but man that was ugly!

it is a set play

 

[VF21]

Could someone tell me the name of the song News10 was playing at the very end of the show?

 

[Heuge]

it is a set play

no way, this team has a set play... I was looking for one, guess I missed it.

I was being sarcastic

me too

I heard 6-8 weeks right at first, but that was from MS&E, and my impression from elsewhere was that 8 was the more realistic. Then he got the surgery. I'm sure we'll be hearing more in 4-5 weeks.

Artest said he had the exact same surgery for a single tendon tear in the off-hand and came back in 2 weeks. Since we know Bibby is no where near as tough as Ron-Ron it would seem not impossible than Bibby could come back in maybe 4-5 weeks - you'd think.

When he had the surgery, they reported that it would be about 10 weeks, but could be as much as 12 weeks.

 

[Jechtsphere]

I watched the game on LP and the Hornets announcers were annoying...do they know they are Hornets and not Bee's -_-

 

[Smills91]

Can News10 and CSN just show re-broadcast games from 2000-2005. It'd ease the pain. That would give us enough footage for a 5 year rebuild.

I would like to get confirmation of that form somebody, you know, sane.

BTW, as for being not as tough -- Mike Bibby has been one of the league's great ironmen playing through anything and everything for years and years. I would take Ron in a fight, but comparatively he's a wimp when it comes to injuries.

Bibby doesn't mention or complain or make excuses about injuries. He's a tough guy actually, not a wimp. If anything he's tougher than Ron just for that fact alone.
