piksi
Hall of Famer
Kings were decent tonight considering the usual. Still another loss makes it a 7-20 for this season starting another losing streak that could go up between 4 and 10 games depending whether we can beat Raptors or Clippers at home. We are 2-11 on the road with many many more to come starting with tomorrow night in NO where we will lose again.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Piksi's Pow(d)er Rankings
Just keep piling them up. It will be worth it/]. Even OKC won tonight giving us false hope as we can't get better than 4th spot no matter how hard we try.
We won in NO and almost clinched playoffs that night. Tomorrow - surely.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Last time I watched Kings live - it was 4-5 years ago in the 2003/2004 season. Tomorrow I will watch us again and I am looking forward to it. I would prefer to go there alone but 3 other people will go and they are ex Kings/Pedja fans and will root for the Hornets. Makes it difficult for me. If we lose (which will happen) I will have a hell of a ride back. If we win - I might have to walk home. Is is worth driving 2+ hrs in both directions to watch a possible massacre ? Of course it is. Some nice christmas present this is. I would have prefered a pair of socks. And they don't even have to match.

Kenny "something" acting as "coach" has already lost his purpose. He went with veterans trying to actually win a game. What the hell is he thinking ? It this really the way to make an impression ? Even my dog could get this veteran team to lose in many different ways. At least he would bite Dickie B. serving a purpose. Kenny Something has none.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And on his way out Kenny Something can take all the Methuselahs he let play in the 4th quarter together with whomever put him in "charge." How hard is it really to understand the concept of rebuilding ? Maybe we can do a powerpoint presentation on that since we have an expert on it who is going paid not to coach us.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Looks like Beno got his contract. He has been pitiful. Still not as bad as Mikki but standards are really, really low these days. He has had a good game here and there (mostly there) but in general he has played worst than our 3rd string PG (I am well aware that we only have one). We need to draft one if possible and let him play and be patient. If Beno was starting material he wouldn't have been dumped like Mikki was. Oh wait a minute ...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We did compete for a while until Kenny Someone decided to let veterans bring us home which they did - only way they know how. Just like many times before - end of the3rd quarter proved to be deadly for us. Not being able to deal with Yao is normal. Not being able to deal with Scola is whole different ball game. Having Hawes turnin into volume shooter didn't help much either.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
AWARD TIME
TDM went to Luis Scola. 23/10/3st is impressive and couple of my fantasy teams are really grateful.
LW-VC - went to Ron. When Your TO = FG and You can't score doub;e digits against Kings - You suck.
JHA went to Spencer (future shoting guard) Hawes.
SAR-Metuselah goes to Udrih. He aged so quickly. Unfortunately his contract ages quiet slowly
Mikki - well if You play over 20 minutes You make 2 FTs have a block and a steel to go along with 5 fouls that makes You - well Mikki Moore - one and only - In a way we should feel priviledged
WTF moment of the game - Beno's travel at the crucial stage of the game. Just typical Kings basketball.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
We lost the game in New Orleans the day we beat them right there a while ago. Not going to happen again. They will be ready. We have back to back and they are rested. They beat Spurs the other night. The reason we won is that we they shot 2-13 from 3pt range against the team that defends the 3 as bad as anyone in the history of the NBA. Now, chances of Hornets doing it again are - well not really there. I watched Kings live 3 times and we won all 3 games. The worst starting 5 in any of those games we had was Mike, Doug, Pedja, Brad and Vlade. Now I am watching Beno, John, Spencer, Brad and Cisco. Life is definitely not fair.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Kevin - the injury wasn't properly healed the first time. Someone should get fired for that too.
Brad - was actually decent overall but pathetic against the guy he pretended to guard
Beno - fake
Cisco - same old Cisco - reliably unreliable
Hawes - You are a big man whethet You want it or not.
Bobby - do it again
Kids need to play
Mikki doesn't
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, last year I watched Hornets play Wolves i a game with 3 quarters of garbage time. I sure hope that it can be avoided tomorrow but I expect the worst. If Pedja sits this one out there will be 3 unhappy people with me there. I want to see something that gives me hope. I am afraid to see a sucking veteran team. CP3 will be fun to watch either way. I see Butler getting the TDM. LW-VC will go to Brown. We might get abused tomorrow night.
