Welcome to Friday the 13th Kings fans. Try to enjoy the game.

I personally have a headache and need a drink, or two, three...

Time to watch the "great product and coach" the Maloofs have put on the court.

Head Coach Keith Smart told me tonight he is putting Tyreke on Durant. Huge challenge for him defensively. Time to guard a great 3.


Oh, joy. I. Can't. Wait.

Apparently OKC currently experiencing very severe storm with possible tornados in the area. In the past their arena has suffered power outages but I think they have sufficient generator capacity to play on. Here's what is forecast for tonight: OKC metro; Occasional thunderstorms - possibly severe. Damaging winds, large hail, and possibly a tornado with some storms. Low 62F. Winds SSE at 20 to 30 mph with gust to 40.

I think Keith Smart has a Napoleon complex or something, and is projecting it onto the team. Guard the league's leading scorer with a guy who gives up 5 inches to him?

Unfortunately, that's the sanest thing the Kings have done all day, which is to say it isn't/

 

[jalfa]

this will not end well. OKC will remember losing to the Kings on national television and they haven't been great lately. plus they still fight San Antonio for the top seed. if there's one game they have to get up for, it's this one. a 20+ point drubbing should be in order.

Is this game being broadcast in HD on dish? I can only find it in standard def.

Maloofs too cheap for HD. Plan to downgrade to black and white next year.

Nice. Have Jim Gray come in and say that "KJ is the bad man. We want to be in Sacramento." Dear lord these guys think we are idiots.

 

[rainmaker]

Reke already on the bench....good job coach

 

[Fear the Putin]

looks like Smart's brilliant plan is paying off already

Reke with 2 fouls in 3 minutes

Seems Smart is as smart as the Maloofs. F everything up on purpose.

 

[Spike]

Is it too much of a conspiracy to think Smart is complicit in helping to run this team intro the ground? Probably. I think his hiring was enough. The Maloofs sure did a pretty good job of pulling a Rachel Phelps on Sacramento. Maybe next year they'll defy the odds and win the whole bleeping thing...

Smart is far too stupid to do that on purpose. He thought IT/MT/Reke/ vs WB/Sef/KD gave us our best chance at stopping them.

 

[rainmaker]

IT/MT jacking up everything they touch...

 

[rainmaker]

Reke has played 3 mins. WTF isn't he in?

Maybe Smart is in bed with George.

 

[rainmaker]

This is the most mismanaged game by Smart yet.

This team, this club, is a complete mess. And this should be "the great product" the maloofs have put on the floor. I don't know what to say, I'm totally disappointed and I have no hope as long as this team is run by these clowns. We will never get better, nobody will want to play for us until the maloofs are here.
I know, maybe I'm overreacting, but I'm a fan and I can do that. I must be really crazy if at 3 am I'm still here watching this stuff..

Maloofs, GTFO and bring your coach with you!

i for one am usually stoked about all of these aspects, sort of, but i just dont have the energy today. my spirit is not yet broken, but its getting there. yelling at my tv is just not as much fun as it should be right now.

 

[rainmaker]

LEaving Reke in with 3 fouls, but you benched him for 30 mins with 2 fouls?

 

[PurpleHaze]

This is the most mismanaged game by Smart yet.

Give him the six remaining games to top it - including 2 more after this one with OKC):

 

[Bricklayer]

this is an appropriate game given the events of the day.

 

[Mass]

Enough of this s***. Good night.

Plus it's Friday the 13th

How do you think Smart is getting on by the way? lol

 

[captain bill]

Was hoping to at least have a competitive game to sooth the pain of the news today. Guess not.
