The real issue: Bad calls or not????

[SaCKiNgS24]

Bottom line is that any team that allows the Bulls 107 points deserves to lose. Period.

go watch a bulls game before u say stuff like that. bulls are gonna make the playoffs. you are really underestimating a bulls team that just beat us.

I guess the Suns don't deserve to win to many games then either. They are giving up more points than any team in the league.

You NEVER rely on the officials. Look at the stats for the Kings. The Bulls had 11 more rebounds than the Kings. There's hardly any defense. The Bulls aren't a team that scores 107. The Bulls did anything they wanted to on offense.

Blaming the officials is a weak excuse!

Thank you!

I am not sure why some people feel that last night should have been an easy win. YEs, I do know that Bulls are in the Eastern Conf., but they have really improved this season, and are one of the better teams in the East. Given our current strugle, I actually expected it to be a tough one.
It is unfortunate that Kings lost yet another lead they had (especially after the nice run at the beggining of the 3rd), but the only thing they can do is try to learn something from every game and move on. It's a long road ahead of them and if they just try to do the best they can, maybe this roadtrip won't be such a disaster after all.

The Kings need to take long hard look into a mirror( the whole team together)

The bad calls are just a fact of life in the NBA. It could be argued, by other teams, that they had lost close games to the Kings due to bad calls. The Kings looked sluggish last night, did not play very well, and the Bulls are a pretty good team. I suspect our starters are tired. The allstar break can't come soon enough.

Here's Another 2-Cents ...

King's ain't as good as we'd like them to be ....

We all know their short-comings and we all see their short-comings ...

The ref's aren't out there NOT PLAYING D
The ref's aren't out there NOT REBOUNDING THE BALL
The ref's aren't out there SETTLING FOR JUMP SHOTS

Something has to change .... personnel or attitude

I'm not putting this on the ref's ....

King's have GOT TO FIND A WAY TO NOT BE IN THESE PREDICAMENTS

Its been pointed out before, and I'm sure it will be pointed out again, but there is a slight difference between having a few questionable calls not go your way and having three blatant no-calls go against you in the final minute of close games all in the span of one week.

I am NOT a "blame the refs" person. Never have been. And, I'll be the first to admit that there are plenty of things that the Kings could do to keep these recent games from being so close. But, I can't even imagine the frustration that the past week has caused.

WOW

not good when he plays, not good when he does not

Blaming a player for the loss who did not even play is very refreshing

Something you have never done.

The Kings should forget everything that has happened so far and stop pitying themselves and just go for a blow out, take the game out of the referees' hands.

yeah.....but they're able to make stops when needed.....the Kings for some reason can't do it anymore

Pitying Themselves ???

The Kings should forget everything that has happened so far and stop pitying themselves and just go for a blow out, take the game out of the referees' hands.

I did - but only the players who were irresponsible enough to get themselves suspended and hurt the team in the process

Of course that San Antonio game also marked the beginning of our injury woes too when Webber went out.

More interestingly, look at those highlighted scores -- 9 games in a row we've allowed 100+ pts on defense.
