Lakers: 112 Kings: 100
I'm with you buddy, trust me. I feel the pain. No one wanted the Kings to win more than I did last night. Sadly, the Lakers are a well-oiled machine and did what what they always seem to do, dominate basketball games. Sure, Evans was able to get to the rim throughout the game, and Cousins was playing his heart out (chill on fouling so often though, big guy) but Kobe, Pau and the gang were too much for my beloved Kings. It's not all bad though, Kings. You stayed with them in the 1st quarter!
Another Game I Watched Last Night: Boston Celtics Vs. Milwaukee Bucks
Boston: 105 Bucks: 102 (OT)This might have been the most exciting game of the year. Lots of lead changes, great highlights, and intense basketball being played. The more I watch this season the more I realize how unique it is going to be. Players are moving away from the "best friends" mentality before, during, and after games and really getting after each other each and every night. It's great to watch such serious competition. Congrats to Paul Pierce who joined Boston's 20,000 point club alongside Bird and Johnny H. What more can we say about Rondo this season? His numbers are unprecedented. I can't wait to see how far he goes.
One Game I Absolutely Didn't Come Close To Watching: Utah Jazz Vs. Toronto Raptors
Jazz: 125 Toronto: 108
Hats off to Al Jefferson and his 27 points last night but this game was never really close. For Utah, it was their 11th straight win over Toronto. For Toronto, not much to say really. At least Bargnani put up 26. He looks like he'll score a bunch this year...
Pete, I love that you've become a Kings fan by feeling guilty. When does your throwback Vlade jersey arrive in the mail?
ReplyDeleteHmm...that's a good idea. Although, I'd have to go with the C Webb throwback, if anything. Those battles against the Lakers were awesome.
ReplyDeleteThe Kings will bounce back this Saturday vs. Memphis. Go Kings!
