SacBee: Kings notes: Players' feisty sides on display in scrimmage

[Revrag]

Bobby Jackson knew this was coming. So when asked earlier this week if the Kings' scrimmages had become heated, the veteran point guard said, just wait.

That competitive fire clearly was lit during Friday's scrimmage, which was the first opportunity for the media to view the full-contact practice. The intensity was evidenced by several players protesting calls, most notably Brad Miller yelling vehemently at a referee.

Awesome! This is exactly the feistiness I was hoping to see this season

Im not sure how arguing calls is a good thing, not to mention it was brad miller, who at least 1 -2 times a game he doesnt get back on defense cause he arguing a call..

yeah yelling at the ref in a scrimmage speaks to me as whining fiestiness is pushing and shoving amongst players not arguing calls in a scrimmage.

Brad was apparently having some fun with it:

Mikki Moore, known as an emotional player, said Miller's outburst surprised him at first.

"Brad scared me," he said. "He was like, 'I'm just having fun.' I think (Kings coach) Reggie (Theus) was telling the refs to do that to see if we could take it. I'm trying to get it all out in practice."
