Tough seeing Sacramento lose by 1 point and the Spurs lose a close one.

Was really hoping the Kings might be slightly better.

Oh, I didn’t think they would be relevant, but hoped they had a few extra wins in them with the new infusion of players like Sabas.

Yeah, glad portland didn’t lose ground, but definitely didn’t gain anything much tonight either.

Okay...I actually thought about this.

Now certainly, the last time they were relevant was during the Adelman years. And IIRC, the last couple years of his tenure were a bit "meh" even though they were an above .500 team. I hate to say it but...20 years ago? Maybe when they went to the Finals?

Imagine the angst of the Kings fanbase for that fanbase has seen losing teams since 2005/6 which was the last
they finished above .500.

That would definitely suck to not have made the POs for 16 years.

I guess more than anything, it's a testament to their fans that they even show up...

You have to factor in the Kings terrible record with lottery picks. Even if they draft ahead of Portland, they'll probably pick somebody we don't want. The Sabbas Halliburton trade was awful. Why would anyone think that would make them a better team?
