...I live in Houston and I've gotten 4 straight games and will get the Phoenix game, too. They are imposing their will on the Kings on a 13-2 run here in the first qtr. Offense getting whatever it wants. Defense only so-so so far!...We the best! My bruddahs

Listening to Blaha and he said they showed pictures of burned-out buildings in Detroit on the big screen at ARco before the game. Really classless move by the Kings organization. That is totally ridiculous.

what's the story behind that?

I dunno. Hopefully, either the Freep or Det News writer will mention it in their notebook. Blaha mentioned it pretty casually and said the Pistons brass weren't too happy about it. Not sure if he knew this for sure or just assumed it. Yeah, I want to know what the deal is. That's bush league if it happened.

anyone staying up over there who can provide a few comments on the game?

Wow. Did anyone else see that jam by Corliss in the first half? That was nice.

I actually get to watch this one on tv. Finally, RaptorTV is good for something (although, it was titled Sacramento vs. Denver on my satalite. I almost didn't bother flipping to it because I thought it was a repeat of an old game or something).

It sure looks like Evans likes to shoot the rock. He made a nice rebound and the Sac announcers said something to the effect of "The Kings should know he can do that", then he took a bad shot and he says "yeah, and he does that too".

He's been shooting a very high percentage on his 3's though, I'll give him that.

Dice still hasn't found his rythem. He looks a bit lost out there and his shot doesn't look very pretty.

Nice to see a lil spankage action going on...

Joe D nice timing on the Tay signing!

Little bench production; no Darko; and lots of minutes for the starters tonight. Does this sound familiar? McDyess and Evans have played quite a bit though.

yeah nice, i've got the live stats going, sounds like we're getting any shot we want. I guess they thought they could just try and outscore us like they did phoenix.

teams always make that mistake of thinking we can't score. wrong!
