    [Game] Kings vs. Dallas Mavericks 7:00 PM PDT/10:00 PM EDT (TNT)

    So we are right there with Dallas in the standings playing at home. This game mattered. We could not match Dallas' intensity. I watched Irving drive the length of the court twice and no one stopped him. I would call a time out right there. Stop the ball already. Doncic was lights out and...

    Lyles has MCL injury

    A "wreck" is the common term for a horse accident. A ranch gelding spooked real bad and headed for a steep drop off. I bailed off him and did not land very well. Six weeks made a big difference. A strain should be much shorter healing time.

    The Sabonis Thread

    We all know he is an All-Star. Great mental toughness. Great leader. Quiet and competent. A great team mate. I love this guy.

    Lyles has MCL injury

    I ripped an MCL in a horse wreck. They heal up really well but take some time.

    [Game] Kings vs Los Angeles Lakers - 3/13/2024 7:00PM PST/10:00PM EST (ESPN)

    Color me impressed. The Kings stayed even at half, and poured it on in the third. They made a lot of steals and some jump switches leading to stops. They they played great down the stretch to go 4-0 against the hated Lakers. Special shout out to Keon Ellis. Great defender that brings...

    Things you would change about the NBA

    Enforcing the rules a little more would help a lot. Traveling, double dribble, carrying the ball happen all the time. Moving screens, lane violations are next. The 3 ball makes some games pretty boring. Its just a 3 point shooting contest. Not sure how to fix it. Back up the line one...

    Sabonis at the Four?

    Most players have their positions determined by who they can play defense against. I agree with Kingston, Sabonis is not a great defender and would struggle against quicker forwards. That is why he is a natural 5 even with his ball handling and passing ability. Adding Len or McGee gets you...

    De’Aaron Fox

    Fox has a mid-range game that no one can stop. He has worked hard to become a 3 point threat. His speed puts pressure on the defense a lot of the time. He can turn on elite defense when required. He is turning into a leader.

    A year wasted thanks to Monte.

    Nope.

    No Kings in All Star game

    Greene is very bright and a reasonable person off the court. Good comments. Unfortunately once he steps on the court, he has the maturity of a lot of guys I played against on the playground as young teenagers. We played for money. It is all so familiar. He just never grew up.

    No Kings in All Star game

    Sacto will always be a small market. We have nothing to worry about. Just point to the score board. The big city guys get accolades they don't deserve. Not likely to change. Haliburton is the one that got away. HIghly acclaimed and well deserved. Sabonis is a triple double point center...

    De’Aaron Fox

    An All-Star no matter what the voters say. Elite speed and athleticism. He deserves a lot of credit for working hard on his shooting.

    Harrison Barnes; Any Questions?

    Shumpert changed everything because he gave people hope.

    Do these stats really matter? You bet they do. Do any stats really matter? Only if you want your team to get better.

    [Game] Kings @ Warriors, 1/25/2024, 7:00p PT/10:00p ET (TNT)

    Huerter is 6"7" which is a lot for a 2. He is working to add to his shooting ability. I like the guy, but he is up and down some games.

    [Game] Kings @ Warriors, 1/25/2024, 7:00p PT/10:00p ET (TNT)

    Wowee. Beating Staph Curry and the Terriers at their place is no easy feat. A 3 point shooting contest with them is really tough. Barnes is under rated. His best play of the game was blocking Kuminga in the last minute. Sabonis is really steady and a complete basketball player. Point...

    Point center. He gives what ever we need. 13 assists for a C is unbelievable.

    Harrison Barnes; Any Questions?

    I have been a big fan of his since before he played with the Kings. I have always thought he was under rated. His biggest play last night 1/25 was blocking Kuminga's shot in the last minute.

    [Game] Kings vs. Atlanta Hawks, 1/22/2024, 7:00p PST/10:00p EST

    I don't see many Kings games and missed the losing streak. The Kings' defense has improved. They rebound better. Barnes is under rated. McGee can still play. Sabonis is the engine. Fox is there when you need him. Monk has great skills, but some of his passing is really lazy.

    What is the most maddening way to lose

    Bad defense.
