Kings-Raptors PBP for Nov. 12

[treewoman]

Wahoo - go Kings! Thanks VF

 

[VF21]

Certainly!

You getting any rain right now? It's POURING here and the temperature is dropping like a rock. I could have snow by midnight if it keeps up.

 

[treewoman]

Started raining as I drove to work - it's not cold enough to snow here yet - but soon I am thinking

 

[VF21]

Okay, getting ready for the second half. Kingsgurl called me from Arco - wanted to know if they'd said anything about the brace of Kevin's shooting hand. I had to admit I hadn't noticed any brace. She said he's had it the whole game so far.



I'm looking but I haven't seen it yet. Maybe KG's eyes are going...
