Tony Parker has been cleared to play. I'm hoping we can break this streak we've got going.

Did have tickets then didnt have tickets

I don't wanna talk about it...

I don't know. Considering the Spurs just got done blowing out the Lakers the other day...

Our odds for Wall, Turner, or Cousins are getting higher..the teams below us have been winning

good thing is that this game is on nbatv tonight....

Just looking at the standings and if we lose this game we go from 6th pick to 34th pick and goldenstate has a couple winnable games. And if the kings keep up the losing we will have a fantastic shot at a top 3 pick.

It's honestly becoming difficult to root for us to win. I want to win but I would also like to get a fantastic pick.

Cousins here we come!

Jason Thompson is so bad.

First Half: Greene looks good, Beno is subpar right about now but is making some good plays, Tyreke is quite quiet - but I have no doubt he will show up. Big Ups to Seans May with some good PT.

Great circus shot by Tyreke..even better block by Greene

Evans has 22. That's all I care about!

According to the box score, Tyreke sure had a hell of a time chucking for those 20 points.

LMAO at our announcers. If you are listening in to athde feed of the game, you can hear Grant/Jerry's 'post comments' for a couple of seconds. If I heard it correctly Grant said, "This loss wasn't all that bad. Washington and Detroit won today....3rd pick...more ping pong balls...." And Jerry said, "At least we get a shot at the #1, #2 or #3 picks, that's fine. But then again, we had the most ping pong balls last year and look it how it turned out"....or something in that similar effect.

Thoughts?

Grant says on his show everyday that he's fine with the losses, as long as we play hard and remain competitive...and I 100% agree with him. The more ping pong balls, the better. I'll take 4-6th over 8-9.

Just think, if we would have beat just 2-3 more teams, we could be looking at the 8th or 9th pick right now. No thanks.

I rarely listen to his show so I wouldn't know if he actually condones this type of attitude. I mean, yeah I wouldn't have a problem if the Kings play hard to the end but managed to lose all of their remaining games. I don't see any problem in that at all.

But I was a bit shocked to hear it live though. In a NBA game.

At this point, I'm all for tanking the final 4 games. The season is completely over. Perhaps, we can let Tyreke take 40 FGA each game? Let him average 40 points on 10% shooting?

Just more affirmation to me that JT and Landry just don't work in the front court. Too duplicative and neither can play off of eachother. It also effects Tyreke because the court becomes really crowded with the three of them out there at the same time.

And what the F is with Brockman getting the D-bag treatment!? I hope it's just them trying to hide him on the bench so every other team forgets about him even existing so they can re-sign him on the cheap.

But the thing is about tanking, you can't make it obvious. You can't let a player dominate the ball and the offense in general.

I like what we are doing right now. We play hard to the end but eventually lose.

Well...what we are currently doing is simply called....we suck

I wouldn't say we suck. We are one of the youngest teams in the NBA and currently have the least experience in general.

Technically, this is our first year with our true core i.e. Evans and co. I wouldn't expect anything out of the ordinary.
