I stopped watching after the third quarter ended. Twenty free throws? I demand an apology from David Stern, but I know I wont get one.

I turned it off after halftime to watch something else, and then turned it on back with about 7 mins to go.

WTH happened? -- We had a ~20 pt lead, that turned into a 11 pt deficit, and the Kings got 20 FTs in the 3rd, alone! :laugh:

I don't think there are a lot of Kings fans "getting righteous" over this win. We're happy about the win, especially when it involved overcoming a 20pt deficit at the half. But nobody is reading more into this than the fact that it was a win over a team that has struggled this season. The only thing Kings fans may have done that could be confused with "getting righteous" is smearing a certain poster's face in their overly-boastful statements before the game.

Fair enough, but maybe he has a right to be boastful on his own board. And maybe taken in context of our season instead of just a 'still' view that Kings would have it could be seen as trying to find something to have a little crow about in a terribly disappointing and disheartening season.

If he had done the same on your board I would have thought he was out of order, but he didn't.

Actually, he did.

Then he was out of order and I castigate him myself.

Nothing worse than talking crap on somebody else's board

There was no real harm. And to an extent, I agree that the Heat are better than their record indicates; the same way I think the Kings are capable of being better then they often demonstrate. I think the Heat clearly got the better end of the Shaq/Matrix deal and that they mostly need Wade to get fully healthy (and probably get Riles off of the bench and back in the FO). However, with the state the Heat and Kings are currently in, it is never wise to get overly confident about their performances because they will invariably find a way to make you want to choke them.

Ignorance. Artest is shooting over 45% from the field and over 36% from 3. Funny how you use your perceptions and pass them off as reality, instead of using actual numbers and watching games. I really think its karma that the Kings came back and beat the Heat..your arrogance has made yourself look like a @$$ (and for a team with 11 wins I really dont get where its coming from)

Yea Artest is shooting 43% for his career and he has a power players body that should be scoring inside at will. Instead he shoots 3s and all kinds of trash shots. Last night he played great, looked like a real star player.

But, Artest is a forward with a strong body and likes physical play, he should be over 50% for his career if he was a smart player, but he is not. Look at Wade, Lebron, Parker, Nash, smart players and they are guards but all shoot a better percentage than Artest.

I'd take Artest on my team any day for his defense, he is a nice player for sure. But he needs to be more efficient on offense if he ever wants to be part of a championship team.

I was messing around a little yesterday, we are 11-10000 this year and I wanted to have fun and talk trash for once all season, wasn't being serious, but good luck anyway with your team. We got our ring in 2006, no crying about this season here, we're still living off that season.
