kings fans can look at tim duncan's performance this morning in one of two ways:
1) he didn't play that well against the kings...so we should feel good about our team containing one of the best players in the league.
2) he was just saving himself for the series that matter...so we should feel bad that he was only toying with us, knowing we never really had a chance.
its gotta be #1, right?!
it is! our boys did the best they could against the best team in the west. i'm proud of them, and while i would have liked to have seen the greatest first round upset in nba history, its comforting to know the kings outplayed and outcoached the spurs in several games in the series. and it also feels good to see the mavericks get abused by duncan. it'd be even more rewarding if the mavericks lost in less than six games, proving the kings were a more difficult opponent for the spurs.
i'm reaching at straws...i know. its what you gotta do when the season ends early for your team.
