Mental toughness and talent in the same sentence for the kings !

I have always wondered how the kings from 2001- pre cwebb trade weren't able to win the title . It is a lot of factors like injuries to key players every year in the playoffs , unlucky bounces , and few other "possible curses " .

It seems little clear that the those great kings teams probably didn't have the mental toughness and physical toughness. Those teams were all about finessee and flashy type . Think about it divac, cwebb, peja, chrisite and bibby didn't scare anyone physically . But this year 's team has Artest and Bonzi who are known as hard nosed players who will steal your lunch money .

SIGN BONZI NOW ! :)

Those teams could very easily have won two titles sans injuries. People really have to respect how good they were instead of trying to pump up our #8 seed at the expense of one of the better teams of the decade. Imagine if this series we were playing it without Bibby or Ron, and maybe just for kicks we wouldn't have Kevin either. That's what those teams had to face every year. Webb, Peja, Bobby...year after year.
