Started wathing the Kings when I moved to Roseville in '99. #11 was my jersey number when I played in high school centuries ago. My jersey number was copied from Jerry Lucas who was a star at Ohio State at the time. I actually ran right into him running late for a class one day. While what I played had no resemblance to basketball as we know it, I was the star of that girls' team with 6 players - 3 offense and 3 defense. You couldn't cross the center line of the court and were only allowed 2 dribbles!!! This was in suburb of Columbus, Ohio, where in later years I was a big Jim Jackson fan, so I was thrilled when he came to the Kings and devastated (probably a little exaggerated) when he left.
Oh BTW, only about an hour from where KEVIN MARTIN is from!!!!!
GO KINGS!!!! Rather ironic that I live on King Road!!
