Well looks like we're going to win this one, Next round is against Seattle. We should be them to. Looks like it will be Sac Vs Miami in the finals. Judging by the pic of the Miami girls, we're going to need to find the sluttiest photo's the Kings girls have. One that oozes sex. That's what the Miami girls have going on.

We're doomed next round anyway when we run into the Seattle Linegerie Team. Heck, I think even I might vote for the wrong squad in that matchup. 
On a sidenote, this contest seems quite ridiculous, especially coming from the league itself. Not that the contest bothers me, but the female fans are probably like WTF!!! I'm surprised the league is pushing the slut factor.

Yeah, because nothing represents the Sacramento Kings and their fans better than slutty pictures of the dance team.
Good lord...

Oh, and by the way. Coming from a 28 year old guy that goes out to quite a few clubs and gets around town, the answer is yes. Pictures of slutty girls would represent Sacramento very well.
That, as they say, is life, and "slut" (a Victrorian era term BTW) is always in the eye of the beholder:
All about the hoops right?
There has always and will always be a sexuality factor to sports. I think the Seattle pics are maybe taking it a bit far (not even being in uniform, or team colors or anything), but then again, SI Swimsuit Edition anyone?

I personally think there's enough excitement on the court from the game. Not everything has to be reduced to a "sexuality factor," IMHO...
There is NO way you could possibly understand what some of us are trying to say. We do have a right to our opinion, however. The fact that it was MEN who first made this about the "slut factor" says a lot.
Because the dance team is all about being suggestive and has totally foregone any pretext of being talented, right?
Lighten up a little? Sorry, Doc...but I think my opinion is every bit as valid as anyone else's. There are a LOT of female fans of the NBA nowadays. And not all of them go to the games just to catch the eye of some macho guy in the next row.
Some of us - brace yourself - actually love the game of basketball.

As for the dance teams... sure, they've gotten more overtly sexual in the last few years. And, sure, they're a lot more about hot girls than actual talent these days. But, when were they ever about anything more than breaking up the monotony of a quarter break by bring out a few pretty girls to shake a little ***?
This whole ridiculous contest has been about the "slut factor" since the minute it started, regardless of who pointed it out first. If it wasn't, there would be clips of the girls dancing to vote on, instead of still photographs.
I, personally, am slightly bothered by the nature of this particular contest. Have been since it was first publicized. However, insinuating that a few comments by the male posters in this thread is, single-handedly, what made this contest about the objectification of women is a blatant exaggeration, and more than a little defensive.

Maybe it is about the company you keep.
Pictures of slutty girls representing Sacramento very well is just ridiculous. Are there slutty girls in Sacramento?.....no doubt. Is it the norm or a small segment? I, for one, resent the hell out of using slutty girls to represent the women of Sacramento.
