Nobody does bad like Sacramento

[blind prophet]

Was just thinking about some of our miserable history over the years and decided to dedicate a thread to some of our collective woes here in Sacramento.

Back in 1987 Lakers 40-4 at end of 1st quarter. We were down 29-0 before hitting a free throw and the entire Lakers audience stands up to cheer our fellas on.

Up next the most consecutive road losing streak, 43 straight games over 2 seasons. And a 1-40 single season road record in 90-91.

Then coach Jerry Reynolds faints during a game while protesting a call, gets whistled for technical.

Coach Jerry Reynolds of the Sacramento Kings had quite a reputation for pulling jokes and pranks. So when Reynolds collapsed to the floor during a home game against the Portland Trail Blazers, everyone thought he was just fooling around. The referee even called a technical foul against Reynolds because he thought the coach was mocking his calls. It took a while for fans, players, officials, and everyone else in the building to realize that Coach Reynolds wasn’t kidding around. He had hyperventilated and actually passed out in front of the Kings’ bench!When everyone realized that Reynolds wasn’t faking his condition, help was quickly summoned. The coach eventually came to and was rushed to a nearby hospital. Luckily tests proved negative. But through the entire ordeal, jerry Reynolds never lost his keen sense of humor. One of the first things he asked for when they wheeled him into the emergency room was a bag of popcorn!
