A rare home game for the Kings in February. Knicks are in town. They really suck so usually, the would end up as a "road kill" but considering our personel situation - anything possible because our talant level drastically dropped in the last week or so.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Never really expected to call a win against GS a "big one" but it was. Luckly GS found a way to lose because Kings just did not have enough to win. If we continue to be so extremly shorthanded tonight, similar game is expected. It would really help to have either Webber or Pedja on the floor tonight - but only if they are "good to go" and not "forcing" it to be out there.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
While it is good to see that our bench can contribute - I hope that this is going to stay just a short term appearance because - we will not get far.
It is hard for RA to figure out who will play and who will not so..
I expect Brad to continue his recent play because we desperatelly need it. Hope Mike can go - lots of pick and roll to defend tonight. Hope Darius keeps it up, Barnes hits a shot or two, Evans contains SM tonight, the bench gives us something - whoever is on that bench. Would be nice if Webber and Mobley feel well enough to help the team if they get to play. Pedja - mistery.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ra will have to continue pulling rabbits out of his hat. We might need another career high by someone to win tonight again
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Knicks - expect SM to have a good game also Craford. Some of the young Knicks players is always good for a career high.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Go Pacers !

They were saying last night on 1140 that webber would most likely play today, and possibly webber and peja by tomorrow. Haven't heard anything about mobley yet though.

Leave the injured on the bench untill they are 100%. Honestly If the tattered rmnentscan beat the Warriors they can beat NY.

im really liking the play of that Trevor Azria...or whatever his name is...of the NYK...i think that kids gonna do big things one day in this league

again i hope no one is forcing it tonight...as far as coming back to play...but it would be nice to at least see CWebb tonight....i mean i don't know what im gonna do when CWebb, Cat and Peja are all on the floor again together...it seems like it was a year and a day ago

the Knicks are a disgrace...they are one of the dissappointing teams this year...and i honestly feel bad for Coach Williams cuz the guy doesn't have much to work with besides SM...that team is JUST SM and a bunch of role players...Allan Houston excluded but when was the last time he actually played an entire week of basketball it seems like he plays two games then he's on the injured list for 5 then he plays 3 games and then he sits out 2...he's got absolutely NO RHYTHM whenever he goes out to play...and that really is too bad cuz he would be one of the stars of the Eastern Conference

Lets go kings! lets take advantage of being at home this time and take it to the house

That would make Pedja first game back against Patterson, a very physical SF.

Well, at least the ever changing injury situation gives us something to talk about on game day -- like who exactly will be on the court! I'd love to see everyone out there, but like the rest of you, I feel like getting completely healthy is more important than missing an extra game or two. I remember last game someone said that Bibby was questionable. Is he injured as well, or was that a rumor?

GO KINGS!!!!

BEAT THE KNICKS!!!!!!

hopefully the kings get one of the big injured 3 back. i'm hoping webber comes back becuase that knee soreness concerns me. don't get me wrong, i don't want him coming back if he's hurt, if he's coming back, that means he's healthy and thats a good thing. backs are a tricky thing so peja should take as long as he needs. as for cat, taking another game off probably isn't a bad idea as i woudln't want nagging things to turn into something more serious.

knicks have lost like 7 in a row which scares me a bit since they are probably going to be extra modivated to break out of that losing streak.

LETS GO KINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope Bibby's doing better. Heard he was questionable last game.

Everyone is in the same boat, iheartBrad. We're all taking our best guesses. Don't you think all the people who already made their predictions were wondering the same thing?

That's just part of what makes the game fun.

:D

Not on Comcast. They showed some stuff about the RCD, now they're talking about Black History Month.

Grant is talking; and the guys are on the court behind him. I see Bibby, Brad, Kevin, Matt, Eddie, Darius, Mo, Tag...

This playing super-shorthanded thing is getting very old very fast. You see it again and again around the league -- there is a shelf life on inspired efforts by bench players. You can survive a few games with everyone flying around trying their best, but sooner or later, and normally its sooner, it starts catching up to you and the lack of talent begins wearing on you. Very tough road heavy month coming up -- we need either Webb or Peja to get back on the court here, and quick.
