1. I am still pissed with the league and the ellements for costing us the Phillie game...
At the day of original game, the Sixers were genuinely the welcome mat of the NBA (still w/o Iliasova or just acquired him)...
And it wasn't a back-to-back, like the re-scheduled date...
It was a sure W, even for our #Kangz -like playing down to the rival's level.

2. Note, that even after playing 2 straight home games, Kings still played the least home games so far this season in the whole league!

Oh well...

We are always required to get things the hard way. o_O
Perhaps it's sweeter this way
(I'll tell you if and when we get there)
 
As of right now, the day before a pissed off Celtics team goes up and lights up the defenseless Blazers: :p

Denver 23-29
Portland 23-30 -0.5
Sacramento 21-32 -2.5
Dallas 20-32 -3.0
New Orleans 20-33 -3.5
Minnesota 20-33 -3.5

We still have 3 games against Denver and 2 are at home. We won the 1st meeting. I think Denver can be over taken.

Our biggest obstacle is Portland. They have the season series against us. We have to hope Portland loses as much as possible. And hopefully Boston and a pissed off IT beats Portland.
 
There is a good win streak in this team somewhere during this season. They are capable....just have to do it.
 
If there is gonna be a playoff run, this is where it has to happen. Our next three games are Atl, NO, Lakers followed by scheduled loss in Golden State to make it to the all star break. You must go 3-1 here, at worst 2-2. After the all star break we have the crucial game vs Denver plus Hornets, Wolves, Nets coming, plus we have two more games vs Denver to follow closely.

Well, if we lose to Lakers we are winning against GSW, so we have one in the bank.
 
Given that we beat really good teams and lose to really bad teams I am very excited about the 8th seed. We would play the #1 seed, putting us in the perfect position (for us) to make a championship run.

To your point we did be the 1 seed Warriors and the 1 seed Cavs both. :D

You know, you can think that but until you really see it in print it's hard to believe. :)

I think many fans have thought "what is the point of being first round fodder for the Warriors anyway?" - but having taken them down in one game and played some others close through a few quarters, it seems that G1C would be a madhouse if we can make the 8 seed. I know I won't sell my ticket to a Warriors fan for that one! I hope we can pull it off.
 
Maybe I developed dyscalculia in the last hour or so but, unless I forgot how to do math, if you were in the second grade in 2006, you should still be in the twelfth grade now.
Playoffs 2006 was in April, therefore the 2005-06 school year. If my math is correct, knowing I "graduated" elementary school in 2010, the 09-10 school year, I worked backwards from there. I do suck at math so I may be wrong though. :D
