Ohhh,,, I got one, it is Friday here.
Want some positives to think about?
•Cat has had maybe three practices max with the starters since he came here. He will only improve as that situation is rectified.
•Pedja is just starting to get back into his rhythm after the back problems. His defense is noticeably better. His shooting is only going to improve on its way back to his usual production.
•The Kings haven't peaked. They're working to get to know each other - having 8 guys on the squad who weren't here last year involves time to put things together. When there are injuries to contend with, that takes longer.
•We aren't Laker fans.

some positives to me,(already been mentioned, but just what I am taking from this game) in no particular order
1. Peja looking like Peja again. He looked good against the Suns, but tonight I thought he looked great on both sides of the court.
2. Adelman getting mad. Yep, I think the team needs to hear it tonight. I love the guys, but rebounding is 90% about effort and I know we can do better than that.
3. Webb again looking like an all star.
4. Close game. I would worry more about losing to the bad teams if we were getting killed. This was a closely fought battle, and we made more mistakes tonight. Obviously could beat them in the playoffs in a 7 game series if we could keep our focus and have Brad Miller (and maybe even Bobby back).

Positives:
- We played in Key Arena and didn't lose by double digits.
- I got to watch my favorite team play.
- I get to watch my favorite team play again tomorrow.
- The Kings did not throw (or kick) a single thing! You go boys!!
- Out of 49 games played, this was only the 17th loss.
- It's February. Pre-ASG February at that.

Stojakovic and Webber had great offensive games last night. Webber did exactly what I'd like to see him do regularly. He focused on finding others for most of the game, picking his spots to score when open, then kicked *** in the fourth quarter. Stojakovic with 28 points on 18 shots. Excellent.
Webber handled Fortson exactly how I'd like the Kings to handle those situations. He didn't back down, just stared at him and let Fortson do all the talking and then walking.
