We've been here before. I am not trying to be a wet blanket but we won against a slumping team with no defense. The problem is that we need an EPIC HOF game from our best player to come back from 10 point half-time deficit in which we surrender 70 points on our home floor. Thats NOT a winning formula. That's a one off game with your franchise guy playing one of the best games of his career.

This is the thing...you can't expect Boogie to be this great every game. It's impossible. So when he plays more like a mortal you need other guys to step up and we haven't shown we have enough guys willing or capable of doing so when Boogie is just average or slightly above.

Perfectly said. I know the majority of the fan base is at a all-time high right now, full of excitement and adrenaline but reality will hit us all in the mouth as soon as tomorrow, where unlike the Blazers, the Jazz defend.

one thing he is NOT, is a punk or a liar. You just sound like u want this to be the case for some reason

Hardly. Of course he is going to say it's an accident...you can't be telling me he has never lied before. Is he a saint? His emotions take over and there is nothing he can do at that point in time, I get it. Being the master of your emotions is the way you become a winner at the end of it IMO.

If you have any confidence in guys like Affalo, Barnes, Willie or Ben, you have more confidence than I do.

Valid points but we've literally got to 8th having played our toughest games, with a new coaching staff and the usual kings disfunction. Really baring significant injury there is a real reason to believe which i know for a great deal of people on here is difficult given who we are.

Vlade has a big call to make with rudy but we gonna be alrite

I don't believe it's a big call. I think it's clear as day, it's time to trade him for value, any value you get in return is a net positive.

Yes, thank you so much for bringing us all back to reality. I almost forgot how much I hated losing and the disappointment that goes along with being a kings fan.

Seriously. Sacramento KANGZ basketball. The only team where you get to enjoy an epic performance with the warmth of a wet blanket thrown on them while reading a fan forum.

The endless mirage of false hope and promise. I hate it too.

Sorry but "WE GONNA BE ALRITE" is not the most compelling argument. 55 points on 78% TS from our best player is unsustainable....so until the team resolves its deficiencies at SG and PF and assorted back-up spots, tonight was a thrilling win in an otherwise march to nowhere. This team needs a trade and infusion of energy and scoring and something. The mix is wrong and the talent sparse. There's too many players logging empty minutes and I am fairly confident that our front office realizes this.

Above is what Blazers commentators thought happened, the same thing that refs said a few minutes later.

Unless they show the other angle you can see what you want, nobody can prove you wrong.
Interesting which way your judgement goes when things are not clear.
