Kings v. Wizards PBP thread

[HndsmCelt]

They just showed some of the Kings players - including Matt, Tag and Pedja - along with some of the RCD, Monarchs and Slamson at the Shriner's Childrens Hospital. Very moving film piece. Pedja says, "It breaks my heart to see how these kids are hurting but they're fighters! And it's good to see them smile for just a few minutes." It then showed him bending over a crib, interacting with a little boy about 8-10 months old. I think becoming a father has had a big effect on our Pedja...

That was so touching. Lets jsut hope it is only Pedja's heart that has softend. Great 1st half, same old song... more boards, more agressive defense, fewer TO's blah blah blah
