GAME LAST NIGHT

KingsLvr

So I sit down in front of the tube to watch the game knowing that with my NBA League Pass that it is going to be a Hornets broadcast. I was coming down with a cold but nothing was going to keep me from watching the Kings kick the Hornets butt!!!

So the announcers being their usual stuff and one stated that he did not like the way Chris plays???? What on earth is this guy talking about??? He started going off on that usual crap about how he doesn't take it to the hole enough and everything else. Whatever!!!! He plays his game and does what he needs to do to get the win!!! Then he goes on to state something about that
we have on of the worst defenses in the league... Ok now I have heard enough. My husband, Keith, and I look at one another both state....

YOU HAVE NOW BEEN BRANDED!!!

Here is the story about this...when Rick Fox came back to play and he fouled out, I said something about how he has been branded by the officials for going after Doug the way that he did. Then Gasol said something about how Chris is lazy and Keon has no upper body strength. We then go and kick their but on the court and that fool doesn't even get to play in most of the 2 half....

So to make a long story short, whenever anyone talks smack about the Kings and/or their players they begin to have bad things happen to them...The Lakers are at the bottom of the barrel and the hole is getting deeper, the Giz went on a HUGE losing streak, and then the Hornets lose BIG to us.

I love this GAME!!!!

2 good wins for the Kings over the weekend. The Jazz game was........interesting? Both calls at the end of the game, one against the Kings, one against the Jazz were replayed 2 or 3 times and I couldn't see where either one was legitimate. I think the call against Amaechi was a makeup for the one against Bobby he didn't commit, which sent Stockton to the line for the game winners. I was surprised Stockton missed one of those BTW.
Webber was the thing in that game he gets knocked most for - clutch. Making those 4 FTs at the end of the game were huge for the Kings. Jazz fans should be ashamed of themselves - at least those who threw stuff at the refs. How ridiculous. On the other hand, the league better get used to that kind of thing happening if they're not going to see to it their refs do a better job. Stu Jackson's comments about " slippery slide" are more apropos than he realizes.

I loved seeing Peja getting into the thick of things so quickly after his return. I know there were some who knocked him for his performance his first game back, just as some did Webber when he first came back last year. I just think those are people who don't really understand about players coming back from injuries and needing a game or 3 to get their timing back and get in sync with everyone again. Will someone please tell the Kings to guard David Wesley? I couldn't believe how many open shots he got last night - and made most of them. Hello! He's one of the better 3 point shooters in the league and the Kings ignored him for a lot of the first half last night. Geez! Was it my imagination or did Webber purposely bounce the ball on PJ Brown's foot last night? I know Brown was really crowding Webber and it looked like Chris had enough and took it out on Brown's foot. The Hornets tried to get physical with the Kings last night but it didn't work. They were trying especially hard with Peja, maybe thinking he'd get flustered. Maybe they haven't figured out Peja's quite a bit tougher than when he came into the league and he doesn't fluster much any more, he just gets irritated, then he gets even.
