piksi
Hall of Famer
Kings didn't wait long in the new year to start another losing streak dropping down to 8-26 which is 4th worst in the league and now we realize how hurtful the win against Clippers and Mello's three against the OKC. As always we are so close and yet so far away. Kings have lost 21 out of the last 25 games and haven't won consecutive games since beggining of November when god had mercy and gave us Memphis, Golden State and Minnesota at home. I don't see us winning more than 2 in a row until the end of the season and even that is questionable..
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Piksi's pow(d)er rankings
Despite the awful win against the Clippers Kings are still in great shape in picking a high caliber bench warmer of the future. Unless, we skip the rookie contract and go straight to MLE.
Playoffs - I remember we had a thread earlier in the season about it. Must have been funny.
------------------------------------------------------------------
A discouraging 0-2 October with pathetic 5-12 November and abysmal 3-10 December will be followed by also ugly January. 16 games (well 14 left) - 10 on the road where we are 2-15 and 6 at home where we are 6-11. We will win one or two games depending whether Gilbert Arenas plays ever again. We can only hope that other pathetic teams will play each other more often forcing one of them to win. We have a great chance to pair up Jason Thompson with another talented player so that JT doesn't get too bored on the bench.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Santa brought us nothing again. I was hopping for a coach since we don't have one. I can't believe that Kenny Something is still here. We should have made a run for Mutombo, P.J. Brown and maybe even Kevin Willis since we missed up on Juwan Howard. Maybe I am stupid but I don't understand anything unless Kenny Something is a laker fan because if I was coaching the lakers - I would behave like Kenny Something. He is just killing whatever he had that resembled a coaching career.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now that we are finally healthy - we can conclude that we suck regardless and that the level of sucktitude is pretty high on the SFM scale. We are a veteran club trying to win games despite lack of pretty much everything. Where else would guys like Moore, Udrih and others be able to do what they love and get paid millions ? Maybe we can get sponsored by salvation army.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
The trade deadline is coming up soon too. We don't have any assets other than Salmons. We have lot of dead weight, garbage and flexible pieces that are as easily movable as the Great Wall in China. Brad had couple decent games but that is about it. Maybe at this point - it would be better to not do anything stupid and make things worse. And yes, things can get worse - I mean - Kings are still in Sacramento the last time I checked.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pretty entertaining game tonight. 2 teams that have all sorts of allergies when it comes to defense without benadryl - it was going to be difficult. Pacers had more rebounds and free throws to offset our great 3pt shooing. If You score 117 on the road and lose the game - you just suck. We needed Kevin to score 50 to have a chance and he failed. He only scored 45. Sure, we can blame his other teammates but can You really build a house using just paper ? Mikki is geting close to his all star form for the girls middle school all star game in South Dakota.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
AWARD TIME
TDM went to Rasho WTF Nesterovic. Just the fact that he played and scored was enough for me.
LW-VC went to Jeff Foster just because he failed to have 20/20 game
RA&1 went to Rush. He should do something else
JHA went to Salmons. It was just the "other" game.
Mikki - was once again dominated by Mikki "useless" Moore. What a performance
SAR-Methuselah went to Beno who looked twice as old as Bobby who is old but good.
WTF moment of the game - Kings starting 5 announcement. How do You analyze games and think of strategy and conclude that Mikki Moore can be solution to anything including global warming.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Nets are next and they are around .500 but only 6-12 at home desperately looking for an easy victim. That is where we fit beautifully. We will spend a day in NYC and when You are there - basketball is the last thing on Your mind especially when You have no clue how to play the game which fits for most of our players and coaching stuff. Nets don't have much of the bench we don't have any starters. The game is winnable for us on the paper. For the Nets it is a "when - if not now" type of game.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Kevin - welcome back. Maybe they will let You start
Beno -
Brad - 5-6 game like this Brad and we get what we want bu so do You
Salmons - maybe it is the other night
Mikki - only couple hundred more games before we finally get rid of You
Bobby - to bad he is old
Hawes - awesome durability
Dante - if you were lucky - You would be playing - somwhere else
Cisco - we overpaid him too.
JT - why isn't he starting ?
rest - irrelevant and useless
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Harris has a sprained ankle and hat is our only chance. That and the fact that VC is old but still a volume shooter. Yi might get the TDM. VC will go for LW-VC award. With Najera and Hassel we get to see some of our favorite villans again. This is it for January. Now or never.
