Kings @ Lakers Game Thread 1/1, 7:30 p.m. PST

How quick did he call that illegal screen?.. he was waiting to call anything.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

It's funny, lakers fans seem louder in Arco. I know they don't have much to cheer about right now, but even earlier in the game it was quiet there.. In Arco they seem much louder.

 

[Kings Faithful]

The mop people need to start doing their damned job. I've seen 2 people slip on the floor already and have it affect the game. Unfortuneately they have both been Kings.

 

[VF21]

WTG, Kings!!!!!

 

[Luv4Kings]

I want to hear Laker fans boo and throw foam fingers on the court.

 

[piksi]

Bynam & Gasol 11-16 rest of the fakers 6-30

shows our biggest need clearly

 

[Merdiesel]

Lol Lamar. He says "And 1" after the shot is already missed. What an idiot.

Not a big surprise though.. He did marry the fat one.

Kobe slipped, but they called the foul on Udoke.

 

[OptimusRhyme]

wow kobe and fisher 4-21 FG combined... great defense by our wing players.

 

[Andriod_KiNg]

Keep taken it to them, they will quit and Kobe will cry.

 

[TIG Kings]

Great half!

And check the boxscore: JT without a point-we have still room for improvement

Beno will be double double tonight! 7 as to 0 tur

I'm thinking that probably won't happen - for the simple reason the Laker front office didn't give them away as promotional items for this game.

Heart and hustle, energy and excitement. That's what the Kings are about...and their passion has pretty much turned this franchise back in the right direction.

 

[deekay2o9]

Pau is on his way to a 30-20 game.

 

[xrzn]

I hate Nocioni and refs.

 

[Luv4Kings]

Kings assists - 20
Laker assists - 8

 

[VF21]

Pau is on his way to a 30-20 game.

And it won't mean a thing if the Lakers don't win.

 

[Andre87]

lmao @ the fakers at that 1st half, whata disgrace of a championship team

 

[Gliesian]

Would be up 20 if not for these refs. I think they are just worried about foam fingers and water bottles.

Uh oh, that means they have to throw beer cups and water bottles. Far more dangerous.

 

[OptimusRhyme]

hopefully ime gets alot of minutes next half. hes playing incredible.

 

[Kings Fan Gerard]

kings up 15 at the half. I hate to see a 2nd half meltdown.

 

[VF21]

I hate Nocioni and refs.

Hate the refs all you like but please don't hate on one of our own players. It just puts a damper on what has so far been a really fun game thread.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

I don't want to jinx us or anything, but if we blow this.. I don't even know. Just don't do it.

 

[bajaden]

I've reached a point where I'm starting to cringe when Nocioni walks onto the floor. I just don't think we need this dude anymore..

 

[deekay2o9]

Noooooooo! Not the jinx!

 

[Luv4Kings]

Free throw attempts so far...

Kings 6
Lakers 15

 

[piksi]

even if we are up 15 with 5 minutes to play - it won't mean much because they have kobe and refs and refs and refs ...


Just enjoy the game - don't look at the score or the clock. Enjoy the game and you won't be disappointed regardless of the outcome

Nocioni comes in, shoots 1 for 3, gets 2 turnovers with 3 fouls. If that 3 went in by Fisher to end, would've sucked and the blame would be put on refs if you think it was a bad call or Noc for moving on the screen.

Fakers will make a run in the 3rd or 4th. Kings are young, but it'd be a huge stepping stone if they can hold them off.

I've always supported him and still do. But the Lakers became better when he entered the game. Hard to ignore.

Could not agree more. I was just thinking the last couple of games that I get that exact same feeling. I don't know if it's his choice or PW's direction, but when he steps on the floor it's as if he is a hired gun flinging up every shot possible. Only he's not efficient enough to do that successfully. I would have no problem moving him to a contender and giving his minutes to our young gunners.
