In the end, I just want our record to show how well we've been playing. I want to be at least .500 because thats the kind of basketball we've been playing. I don't want to remain the third worst team in the West when we should be hovering out of the 8th seed. At least that way when someone tells me the Kings suck I have something factual to throw back at them.

Anyone telling you the Kings suck is not worthy of your response, my friend...

Yes, an that's why the Blazers are in 1st place, they find ways to win these types of games, we're still like 2 steps behind teams like that...and it's frustrating as all HELL!! :(

They are also several years ahead of us and their superstar is the only player to not get hurt which helps a bunch. Unlke us, who are missing a 25 ppg guy, and Tyreke's been hurt.

Okay, I'll rephrase...

You, as a poster on this board, are beginning to approach the kind of poster for whom it is very hard to maintain any degree of respect because of your proclivity for promoting your own favorite player at the expense of the rest of the Sacramento Kings team.

As far as your game-related comment goes, Omri was an integral part of the offense coming down to the wire, but it's NOT just about Omri. It's about the TEAM. I'm only guessing you're not watching because if you are, you aren't paying attention. Evans did kick out to Omri when he was open, and Omri was instrumental a couple of times in helping clear the way for Evans to drive inside. That is TEAM basketball and that's what it's all about.

Better?

I apologize. I take it back.I looked at the last 4 minutes again and this is really not about passing more to Omri. It's about JT sucking in a bad way. He cost us the game with that weak put back he missed and many other butter fingers plays.I like JT but he is in a slump.

I love our young guys, I love it when you can tell Omri wants that three and checks where the line is hopes back and buries the three.

Tough loss but it's all part of rebuilding, we'll get there.

Really? People are really telling you the Kings suck?

I'm hearing from Laker fans, from Pacer fans, from Nuggets fans, from a Warrior fan, and from some Celtics fans that they're really impressed with what they're seeing from our young team and that it's fun to watch our games. I haven't heard anyone - well, except one guy who didn't even know Artest was gone from the team - say anything really negative about this year's model of the Sacramento Kings.

Some guy asked me how well Pedja was playing for the Kings this season.

Don't all the teams in the the same conference play the same number of games against the same teams?

i know that you play your division 4x in a season. The rest of the teams 3 times or isn't it sometimes 4? and the East twice. Wait. Actually, I am not sure about this. Correct me if I'm wrong.

It really is as simpel as 1 word: defense.

Even after losing all of their carefully stockpiled defensive board beasts inside, the Blazers are still so committed to stopping people that they are allowing 93 ppg. If we allowed 93 ppg we would be one of the best teams of all time.
