Sac vs. Clips-Kings looking to keep streak going

UKF · Post #1 » by **UKF** » Thu Apr 8, 2010 3:23 pm

We have moved up the rankings the last few days and the Pistons, Warriors and Wizards have moved down. Here's to another hard fought game but a loss. This game could make us or break us for that number three spot in the lottery. I'll be there, anyone else going to the game tonight.

I will be very pleased if -

A. Tyreke gets great/good stats
B. The team plays well
C. They lose

Remove one of those three and I'm less than thrilled.

Against the Clippers, these two things may be mutually exclusive.

We shall see if this team is committed into getting more odds in the lotto by tonights game. Yes we are better than the Clippers i believe, and we can beat them. However, we are right where we want to be in terms of selection for a lotto spot. If we win then we really just want to finish the season off on a good note. I'm sure PW wont allow this game to be a "tank off" therefore, I can see us taking the "what the hell attitude" and just take this game.

Announcer #1: "Tyreke can score, rebound, shoot, pass, essentially everything you can do. He plays like Oscar Robinson and Walt Fraizer. He is the best rookie."

Announcer #2: "He is the best rookie playing now."

Even though, Evans is putting up 20-5-5, The Clippers announcer think Griffin can top that next year (and thinks he will be the best rookie in general next year).

OMG Evans!

Just give the ball to Tyreke. He can take care of the 79 points tonight easy.

Evans is making the game easy. Hitting everything and does everything.

I can't believe this will be considered as a "normal" game once he gets the jumper down.

Isn't looking too good right now..our time to shine is in the 4th

Evans with 17-5-5 at the half. Thompson with 14-9-3. Landry with 9-8-1.

Yea im sold now, JT just said everything i said in my pre-game post. Talked about wanting to finish the game and season on a good note etc. It was that type of tone. We are man handling the Clips out there, they are clearly tanking it. I just hope this win doesnt screw us hard.

Just shows how old and senile Ralph Lawler is (assume that's who you were referring to since I have heard him do this many time).

A couple things:

1st. We are currently in a 3 way tie for the 3rd pick winning this game moves us back to 5th.

2nd. I kinda like what Thompson is doing at center. He seems to have regained some of his early season success if only he can keep his head on his shoulders and continue to stay out of foul trouble. If we were to draft Favors I think the 2 of them might make a nice starting front court.

Just looked at the upcoming schedules and the wizards are Going to be at the 3spot the best the kings can do is fall to 4th but that will likely require goldenstate to win 2 more games. Otherwise it looks like we are destined for 5th.

Yeah, that's him. :lol:

This is what I like about Evans. He puts up the last second shot. He does not care if that hurts his %s. Most players just dribble it out.

No matter how hard you try, you just cannot out suck the Clippers. It is not possible

Well...you can't lose them all. But I didn't expect us to have a 12 gaming losing streak to end the season. I still think that we will win against Houston or @LA, but we'll see. If we get the 5th pick, I won't be too disappointed. However, if we slip to 6th-8th...
