that can of whoopass that the hornets opened on the kings was all that was necessary yesterday to make me smile

what defense? waitaminute, you're the kings, nevermind... former gsw speedy just torched them, combined w/j.r. smith.

what offense? oh, you mean that floater that the birdman just sent right into the crowd, and your low 20s shot percentage? not to mention all those turnovers?

speedy claxton dunked yesterday, btw...

no doubt kings aren't going to play THIS bad for a long time, and call me sadistic, but i enjoyed it...

i LOVE it when a basketball team which solely relies upon its offense just suffers and can't shoot the ball at all, can't defend.

indiana shot poorly in game 6 of the eastern conference finals vs detroit 2003-2004 season, but they made a game of it defensively. so you can't say that once you can't shoot the ball, you're out of the game.

but this is the kings we're talking about.

denver-spurs looked like a mavericks reunion. no doubt both teams are going to be good in the west, but the spurs look REALLY loaded on their bench.

reggie miller's now a tnt commentator.

sixers-pistons tonight; i'll be enjoying that... while i eat dinner in haste *stupid genetics midterm grumblegrumble* pistons bench looks SLIGHTLY stronger this year; they got davis, and if one of the other players steps up like darko, carlos or delfino, they could be the best team in the east. i'll also like to see if flip does more of the stuff he did in minnesota like throw double teams on d at the sixers all the time, or leaves it like it is, and lets detroit do their 1-on-1 d(which i've grown to love)... also, wonder if they're gonna be a little stronger offensively.

and indiana-heat tommorow; i'm definitely looking forward to that, cause i want to see how good the heat are, and i've liked o'neal a bit.

heh, you know what would've been funny?

on halloween: indiana jersey w/o'neal on the back, no 7, pacers shorts, nike shoks, yellow headband, two armbands, two boxing gloves.
