There is always tomorow hence there is always an other game. Tonight we play NJ and we beat NJ. If we do not underestimate them badly and something is telling me that we won't - we should win this. They are better than their record but not by much. I would expect them to pay the prize for our bad game two nigts ago.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
There is not much to say about last game. It is the 2nd time this season that it happened (Seattle). Let's just hope they do better on Thursday which should not be that hard.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CW - might or might not play depending wheather they put an ATM machine in the lockerroom;). Would be nice to see him going one on one with Jabari.

Pedja - should stop talking (he does not say much anyways) and start playing. Going agains Buford/Carter tonight. Candidate for a poster.

Bibby - will have an assist tonight (hopefully). Guarding Kid will be somewhat hard.

Brad - one guy who actually played against Spurs. No much to complain here.

Mobley - Mr. "too agressive to struggle". Maybe he decides to pass to somebody not named Webber tonight. (only possible if Webber does not play)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tag - was our playmaker (gee I wonder why we lost) against the Spurs. Not many minutes expected tonight.

Evans - questionable tonight. We sure can use his effort.

Martin - needs minutes

Darius - will be Darius

Rest = "Mateen society"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RA - should have easier time of getting the teams attention. Needs to be nice lass and yell more.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
NJN should not create big problem if Kings show up to play. Career highs possible by Buford, Smith and Krstic
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Go Knicks - can't believe I just said that (higher cause I guess) !
Go Sonics !

Yeah whats wrong with Evans, I haven't heard anything.

As far as Tag goes I think he will get significant minutes tonight if Webb doesn't play. Unless they play Bradley, which I doubt they will give him minutes over Tag, but hopefully we get to see him tonight, from what I have been told the guy can ball.

I would be very surprised if the Kings didn't respond the right way tonight to show the whole world what kind of basketball is actually played in Sacramento.
So it's also a kind of statement game.
But i'm not worried the Kings will put on an A+ performance tonight.
And i´m very optimistic that the Kings can beat SA on Thursday because THEY are actually the better team, not SA.

Kings Rule!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have no problem with the Nets paying the price for Sunday's bad performance -- in fact, I look forward to it!! As long as we save some energy for the Spurs on Thursday, that is! I would really like to see us hand the Spurs a loss to make up for the humiliating loss on Sunday.

Looks like Martin will be getting mins tonight!
I like the "Darius will be Darius"..


Rodney Ruford and Jabari Smith will be in Sac tonight! :) Another Vince Carter appearence back in Arco too.

I hope the players aren't looking ahead to the Spurs game yet. Need to take care of the Nets first! GO KINGS!!

Glad to see that Webber is on the sidelines -- I was afraid he might be hanging out at an ATM machine again;) I'm going to keep an eye on him just in case there are any stories that come out later!

Bibby is shooting well, but is it just me or does Mike seem to be moving slowly, I think his ankle is bothering him...

VC has actually been called for holding Pedja. This is HUGE! considering we usually can't buy those calls. Maybe that's what Webber was doing at the ATM.

:D

This time he was smarter - he went to the ATM before the game ;)

This game is pretty much taking candy from a baby. Not that we haven't gotten our asses kicked by several candy-wielding babies this year, but just so easy that boredom is our biggest foe.

Yep, finally got inside. LOVED the Peja DUNK (no layup misses, thank you very much!) Kings boards = 15, Nets = 11. (damn you Grant. I had the wrong stats up there, sorry :eek: )

I don't think so, KP. He seems to be playing more controlled than usual, but I don't think it's his ankle. He doesn't seem to be favoring it any.

Pedja is moving pretty well and doesn't look to be suffering any aches or pains.

Stop me if you've heard this before: The Kings just seem to move the ball better without C-Webb. There seems to be a freeness to movement. I don't think it's Webber's fault. The players just seem to defer to him when he's in there. By the way, anybody check out 82games.com for some interesting stats. Shows you exactly how the Kings do when Webber is on the court.
