Greetings fellow Kings fans - from here in the forest covered with snow, snow and more snow!!

I have fresh coffee brewing - Gevalia again, since it seemed to bring good luck last time. This could get expensive before the season is through. ;) I have my purple slippers and lucky socks, my Christie jersey and my Kings blankey, which could be very important as it is really cold up here.

All my Kings totems are in their proper locations, my snacks are in the kitchen and I'm ready for another great game.

I'll be doing the PBP again - as usual. And, as usual, I ask that you use the OTHER game thread (the one started by piksi) for your game-time discussions. I started doing the PBP to help our fellow Kings fans who can't see or hear the game get a real-time report on the game. It was never meant to be an ongoing game-time discussion thread. If you want to chime in during half-time or with a quick GO KINGS or something, no problem but PLEASE keep your main discussions in the other thread. Thank you...

**Commerical break** The PBP thread is possible because of the dedication and generosity of our board owner, Jeremy. If you would like to help defray the costs of keeping Kingsfans up and running as the most popular Kings message board on the Internet, consider becoming a Contributing Member. Information is available through the thread stickied at the top of this forum OR in your User CP under the Miscellaneous Section, Paid Subscriptions. You are under absolutely no obligation to become a CM. **End Commercial Break**

Pedja made an interesting and correct comment after the Spurs game, when asked about the upcoming road trip. "We've never beaten the Knicks in their house since I've been with the Kings," he said. "I think we need to change that."

Right on, Pedja!

Napred Kraljevi!!!!

Okay, House Party is on.

Oh, just kill me...please. This time they have the "Kings best-kept secret" - a rap star called "B smoove." I am going to lose my spleen. I can feel it separating from my other organs as I type...

The idiot is doing a Kings rap and just talked about the magic of the plays between Vlade and Webber. This takes embarrassment to a new level. I thought Rupe the Hoop was bad...I had no real idea of just how bad "bad" could be and I don't mean in a good way.

Kingsgurl sent the information about Special K to Jim Kozimor. She received a reply, which I'm sure she'll be sharing later in detail, but in essence it seems Koz just might mention the Special K nick on the show...

Here's hoping.

OH MY GOD!!

Koz just asked Kara if she knows his nickname? HE SAID SPECIAL K!!!!!!! He didn't say where he heard it from, but he did say "Everyone thinks his nickname is K-Mart, but there's already a K-Mart in the league. Kevin is SPECIAL K!!!"

Whoooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

We have our regular starters on the court.

The Knicks have Tim Thomas, Kurt Thomas, Nazr, Allan Houston and Stephon Marbury. (Hereafter referred to as SFM)...

They're doing the Knick intros right now - and I expect to see Whoopi Goldberg, having just watched Eddie again.

:D
