Good afternoon, fellow Kings fans.

It's been a bright, shiny day here in the forest. The snow is melting pretty rapidly, leaving lots of puddles and mud in its wake. It's all good - at least I'm not going to be worried about forest fires in the foreseeable future. ;)

I have my purple slippers, lucky socks, Bibby jersey and Kings blankey all ready. I've made the coffee, French Vanilla Gevalia again, and have corned beef and cabbage to make a sandwich at half-time.

I'd like to apologize for losing my temper a little during the last PBP. In my flimsy defense, it's hard to do this. I'm not going to be perfect and when people point out the errors and want clarification it gets very frustrating. I am watching the game as it unfolds on TV. If my score, etc. doesn't agree with one of the sports site game narratives, then two things are possible. Either they're slower to do updates than I am or I've made a mistake. If the mistake is mine, just read past it. :D I try to give scores, etc. often enough so that if I do make a mistake the next entry should correct it. I may also give credit or blame to a wrong player. I don't like to make mistakes, but one or a dozen are bound to turn up in a thread like this. So, please bear with me. I do try to give you the best possible impressions I can. ;)

**Commercial break** Once again, I'll remind everyone the reason I'm even able to provide you with a PBP of the game is because of the dedication and generosity of our board owner, Jeremy. If you would like to help defray some of the costs of keeping Kingsfans.com up and running as the most active Kings message board on the Internet, please consider becoming a Contributing Member. Check out the "stickied" thread at the top of this forum for more information. You are, of course, under NO obligation to be a CM to enjoy Kingsfans.com **End Commercial Break**

Now, I'm going to make sure I have all my totems in their proper places. The pre-game show will be on in about 15 minutes, so make sure you're comfy. I have a feeling this is gonna be a GOOD game!!!

GO KINGS!!!!!

Our starters: Mike, Cat, Pedja, Chris and Brad
For the Spurs: Parker, Bowen, Manu, Duncan and TMass

As Grant says, "I don't believe in statement games in January, but this is going to be a barometer game for the Kings."

:D

**Personal opinion** TMassenburg needs to be set on his posterior - hard. They showed the replay and it was pretty obvious that he moved under Webber while Chris was in the air. His foot was perfectly positioned for Webber to come down on. There was no logical reason for TMass to make that move UNLESS it was to get his foot under Webber. **End Personal Rant**
