Kings-Raptors PBP thread for Jan. 29

[VF21]

Welcome, fellow Kings fans!

Could be a lot of fun this afternoon. Word is that Bonzi is going to play...

I'm going to skip all the usual intro stuff because it's getting very close to the House Party Live show and I still have some stuff to do...

Follow the game via this thread, or discuss it via the game-discussion thread, started today by venom_7 in piksi's absence. And, as always, if you're into CHAT, you'll love Mr. S£im's CHAT PARTY LIVE at mIRC. server irc.bludgeon.org, channel # Kingsfans.
