Denver at Sacramento

Going to be a tough game. Denver has been looking good lately, even with out Kenyon.
I think I'm going to watch the WBC instead (USA vs. Venezuela).

Go Kings.

Spencer tearing it up from 3 so far.

Damn!!! I got side-tracked and missed most of the first half! Pretty impressive score when I finally turned the game on...40-29 Kings lead. Not sure how to handle that.

How has the defense looked so far?

The D has looked ok, we have made 8 3 pointers, most of those in the first quarter and only 2 turnovers. Shooting the ball well and not turning the ball over has been the real key, not our defense.

As long as the D looks better than it has been in the last several games, then there is some hope. The small bit I've seen suggests that the D is at least slightly better...or at least the guys are looking like they are playing with a little more intensity on that end of the floor.

I'm still trying to figure out how to take the halftime score. We are typically on the wrong end of a 60+ point half. I'm just going to sit hear and enjoy the moment...

Hawes is playing the role of Dirk Nowitzki tonight. And I think this is the end of Garcia ever starting again. Noci is looking good.

By the way USA up 11 to 5 on Venezuela. Like an 8 run 6th inning for USA.

I think this board gets quieter when we're winning than when we're losing.

You think? Or maybe because people assumed tonight would be a loss nobody is watching.

Spenser is borderline beast like out there tonight. McCants was a great pickup. Nocioni was a great pickup.

Now I'm not going to say anything else until they close this game out.

They are fouling pretty hard this game, I remember BoJax mentioning something about that in the paper.

Quality win, too bad we lost ground in the race for a top pick but great game from Nocioni and Cisco.

Impressive!

Post #15 » by **KingInExile** » Mon Mar 9, 2009 3:35 am

I am just in shock!

Maybe we should play more often with 4 days off between games.

It will.

We do this every year, go on a winning streak at the end, drop 4-5 spots in the draft, gives the fans unrealistic hope at the end, and suck a little bit more the following year.
