piksi is off doing something ... I think he said he was moving ... so we don't have a introduction for our game discussion thread. After the past couple of games, however, I have to trust that it was kismet that he not be available.

Our piksi would not be happy... I mean, he REALLY would not be happy ... and I cannot say that I would blame him.

I won't attempt to do the awards from the past game as I firmly believe that game should forever be scrubbed from our memories. In fact, if at all possible, I would like the beams radiating out from the earth towards the far reaches of the universe to be intercepted and destroyed. Nobody needs to see that game ever again... unless, of course, it's Reggie Theus. (But I won't elaborate on that; I'm sure everyone reading this can "hear" what piksi would be saying about it.)

Dallas comes into Arco tonight with a big chip on their shoulders. They led most of last night against the Lakers, with Mark Cuban sitting in Staples with that smug look on his face. When the home team kicked it up a notch and made the mavericks look more like the Clippers (or, unfortunately, us) I'm pretty sure the look on Cuban's face changed drastically.

The plane ride from LA to Sacramento late last night can not have been pleasant and I'm quite sure Dirk Nowitzki and his crew will be out looking for blood tonight. I had originally planned on going to tongiht's game but I'm glad my plans didn't work out. The thought of seeing #41 pumping his fist at the home crowd is bad enough; being there is person might well have given me an all-expenses-paid vacation in the special little room under Arco. ;)

At this point, I really don't know if I'll do the PBP. Either way, GO KINGS!!!
 
Kings v. Mavericks Game Thread 11/29

None of piksi's witty banter, just starting one up as a public service for anyone who is looking. I'll even make the first appropriately themed post.
 
his career highs of 37 points and 21 rebounds, i guess is slightly overshadowed by chris duhons franchise record 22 assists.
 
37/21 ... okay, I concede that "ridiculous" was probably an appropriate term. Holy crap might also apply.

:p
 
Now might be an appropriate time to mention that we could have drafted David Lee instead of Francisco Garcia, which I was hoping for.

Or maybe there's never an appropriate time.
 
Wait. Am I the only one who heard Grant say the reason John Salmons traveled is because he saw Beno walking to the scorer table and got confused????

Good grief.

Yes and now coming back from commercial we hear Angela Tsai. :mad:
 
Random question: Don't they have drills or something where players can learn NOT to drag their pivot foot? And aren't those the kinds of things assistant coaches can be used for...

I am puzzled because we seem to have about 43 assistants and I have no idea what any of them do.
 
At least our leading rebounder, Beno, is out there. :rolleyes:

I have really mixed feelings about that play... I have no problem with Beno chewing out a teammate for a HORRIBLE pass. The problem was he assumed Terry would make the lay-up... That was wrong but at least Beno was willing to yell at Mikki for doing something bad. At least I think it was Mikki...
