Press Conference

[GeraldWallace#3]

There is a live press conference at Kings.com, it hasn't started yet but just thought I would let everyone know.

Stuff like this always brings out the homer in me, I don't know why. I'm a sucker for press conferences.

A few interesting comments by GP, Reggie, and the three new players in about a 25 min news conf. Jason, Sean and Pat all well spoken and likable. Interesting when Reg said that one of the things he liked about Thompson was his ability to bring the ball up court in transition for up-tempo style Kings want to play.

I love this picture. Welcome to the greatest show on court

This is great, I love these picks and I must say that Petrie is a genius!

 

[Lafayette]

I think Ewings "0" means playing time.. ha.. thats messed up... seriously, Ewing isn't all that bad, can shoot, wily player, reminds me of Matt Barnes just more athletic.

I really like the picks too, but I think it might be a litte too early to call Petrie a genius. He's made some great moves before, but lets see how our picks work out before we get too carried away.

True, he always sneaks good picks in though and I'm actually more excited about Singletary then Thompson because he seems like a true point that can come in and play right away when we need a player like that most and that's what makes the Thompson pick so nice because we needed a PF and he can step in and play a position we so desperatly needed last season. So with that Petrie is looking more and more like a ge... we'll wait in that I guess.

 

[chasen4r1]

Haha, well I feel your excitement. I'm really excited about both of those guys and I can't wait to see how they play. Until then I'll just be hoping that Petrie is a genius.

I think you might be right - I don't think I've seen the multicolor stripe down the side before, or maybe I just haven't been looking that close....

Same jersey as last season we had the purple stripe down the side. it looks strange in that pick because its wrinkled and the flashes from the cameras are creating shadows in the wrinkles. Same Jersey

 

[chasen4r1]

That jersey looks the same to me

 

[BMiller52]

That jersey looks the same to me

Yea it's the same jersey we already have.
