Well, the Bear did not help and it did look wrong. The "gold" turned out to be fake. Now, I will try with Jesica Simpson. Might not work but at least it is easy on the eyes;). I am open to suggestions.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
TNT - broadcast just to add yet another insult to the injury. Well, You know the drill. First we get upset because Kings will be trashed in the pre game (well deserved). Then we get trashed some more during the half time of the first game. Then the first game goes into OT and we are pissed because we going to miss the start of the game. Then there is a second OT. So we start watching 2nd quarter and our subs are already in:eek:. If the score is bad - it will add to frustrations. Then we get more trashed in the HT. After the game (score dependent) we have to listen to more garbage (not score dependent). If You are really strong - You can go for post game show where we will definitely get trashed some more. If You are on the east coast (like myself) it will be 2 am. Will be tough to go asleep (score dependent). The alarm goes of at 6 am.

Enjoy the game !
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kings 7-11( just like from the free throw line these days) . Speaking of 7/11 most of our players are currently more qualified to work there than play BB. But then again - You have to earn minimum wage too - I guess. Kings still 0.500 at home. We lost 4 straight now and 3 at home. I don't think that we lost 3 straight at home in the Adelman era. We are also winless in December. I want to use this opportunity to publically apologize to Novembet. It was a great month and Kings won 7 timed. If You think that it can't get worse - think again. LA Kobes are doing great.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
For all of You that just like me don't remember what is a win - I will introduce a new segment called "Happened on this day"

So on December 7th 2002
a great Kings victory on the road in San Antonio.

Kings destroyed the Spurs 104 - 80 to improve to a solid 18-5 record.
Pedja and Mike were UIOF (go figure)
Webber was Webber (before injury) with not spectacular but solid 23-13 game. He owned TD on a "who is your daddy" level.
Jackson & Jackson were awsome BJ with 18 and JJ with 23 of the bench (yes we had a bench). DC had 9 assists and Vlade was Vlade.
Keon had 3 blocks and one of them I still remember.
Kings shot 52 %.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
With every day - it becomes obvious how much CW and Vlade meant to Pedja/Bibby. Now when the team needs to bounce back there is nobody who can do it. And yes we will get as far as Pedja and Mike "carry" us. These Kings don't even know what "bounce back" mean. They are however really good at sucking and very consistant too. They are also great at post-game crap that they say night in and night out. We seam to be stuck with them because - nobody wants them. The have almost no value at the moment. You have to be a very retarded GM to trade any good player for any "core" Kings player. So best we can get is a mirror of a "Webber trade." Personally I think that every Kings player is a subject of a trade but only if Kings can get something more than a pop corn, a coke and a ticket for a "dollar theatre"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We lost to Cavs too. No surprise there. It is a yard sale at ARCO. Win one - get one free. We got outshot, outrebounded and many other "out...". We have one player playing well and doing what he is supposed to do.(Bonzi). The rest deserves to wear the golden uniform 24/7. Makes them suck a little less.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
So Rockets are next. We already lost to them once this season so the players are familiar with the feeling. Every streak ends meaning Kings will beat someone again before the season is over. Might not be the Rockets tough. To win this Kings have to "give a damn" for 48 minutes (broken record). Come on guys - even a blind chicken finds a corn from time to time.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mike - leads the team in scoring now (grat job Pedja). Do something Mike !
Pedja - new level of "suck" At this point there is only way up for him.
SAR - 3 rebounds last game. Whatever
Brad - did he play last game ? Did he do anything ? Can't really tell.
Bonzi

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bench - starters are so bad that bench can't suck that much anymore. You never know what they will give us.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
RA - time to end the suffering man.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rockets - suck more than we do but it meaans nothing. They can use an easy win and that is us these days. Barry is injured so he will not be able to defend his "Tony Delk" trophy that he won last time we played. How about Luther Head this time ?

Another decidedly winnable game. Maybe. Can even tell you how -- get Yao in foul trouble and out of the game, and the Rockets are jsut so shallow and strangled by Van Gundy that they might not score 70. Which will give us about a 50/50 chance of beating them. ;)

Unfortunately, the return of T-mac pushed them into the 90s range. I think the likelihood of his back acting up again is tantamount to our victory hopes. I put more stock in that than our team playing well enough to beat the Rockets at their best.

Unfortunately the Rockets have the King's number as of late. Corliss needs to play 15-17 minutes. Kenny Thomas needs to be more aggressive from 15 feet out and drive to the basket. He's quicker than any backup PF-C who is guarding him. Shareef can do this too against any starting PF. DRIVE TO THE BASKET. Both are great free throw shooters too.

I'd like to see the play they did against the Spurs in the 4th quarter. Garcia brings the ball up. He passes the ball to the right to bibby coming up from the block. He catches the ball with Brad coming to screen him to switch the defenders, and let Bibby go to work. This play worked 3 times in a row against the spurs with Bibby hitting two jumpers in Nazr's face and the 3rd time Nazr gets too close and Bibby drives right to the basket and gets fouled. Bibby is at his best in this play, and it will work exceptionally well against Yao. (just think Yao on the perimeter trying to guard Bibby).

Kings need to focus on what they do well.

Send Yao to the Hemofarm like their last game. That will give you at least 5 mins of game time to build a lead while they stitch him up.

Sir Robin: What's he do? Nibble your bum?
Tim: He's got huge, sharp... er... He can leap about. Look at the bones!
King Arthur: Go on, Bors. Chop his head off!
Sir Bors: Right! Silly little bleeder. One rabbit stew comin' right up!
[after Bors is killed by the killer rabbit]
Tim: I *warned* you, but did you listen to me? Oh, no, you *knew*, didn't you? Oh, it's just a harmless little *bunny*, isn't it?
