View Full Version : Kings v. Hornets PBP
Good evening fellow Kings fans!
It's almost game time and luckily I got everything done up here in the forest in time to get to my computer! :D
I've got my lucky socks, purple slippers and Christie jersey on. My favorite beverage has been chilling all day in the frig! There's turkey roast in the oven that should be ready in time for a nice half-time sandwich and I have plenty in case any of you want to drive up here and share!
Remember, all I ask in return for these PBP threads is that you keep your comments SHORT, upbeat, fun and positive in THIS thread. piksi has started his game thread where you can feel free to talk about the game in depth AND there's always CHAT. mIRC server: irc.bludgeon.org and the channel is: #Kingsfans.
This should be a fairly easy night for the Kings, but you never want to overlook a team with nothing to lose.
I wouldn't want to be the Hornets tonight. Generally, when the Kings have been the victims of a blowout in their own house, the next team stepping into Arco pays the price.
You've got time for a quick stretch of your legs before game time. I'm not even talking about the pre-game show because, aside from showing clips of Vlade's tribute AND showing Darius and a couple other guys helping give out Christmas baskets in Oak Park, it's not that memorable.
I LOVE THIS TEAM!!!

PLAYER UPDATE: Grant just announced that Chris Webber will not play because of the knee. I'm guessing it's precautionary, just like before, and should actually give Darius a pretty good night on the floor. Wish I hadn't already posted my predictions!

GO KINGS!!!!
Man, work is boring, thank God I have the Kings here this morning to entertain me. Granted, I don't have a TV at work, but I'm sure VF's play-by-play commentary will suffice. :D

Damn it ! No Webber :(

i wish i had known about Webber before i made a bet on the over/under.
hmm.. they had 2 days off.. why is webber not playing?
i'm hoping it's because it's the hornets, and they're assuming we wouldn't need him (and we shouldn't, really)
go kings!

no worries Webber will probably not be needed tonight and Darius and Tag need more court time.
Entity
12-19-2004, 07:06 PM
I am guessing they want to keep Webber as fresh as possible. If it means not playing him against very weak teams than i am all for it. We a have a grueling schedule coming up after the first of the year in January and February. I just hope we can score over 100.

this High-Def is definitely COOL !!!!! What a difference ....
Ciao ... back to the broadcast ... GO KINGS !!!
The Hornets are 2-20. We don't need Webber out there. You should get used to this. It will happen periodically during the season and probably for the rest of Webber's career... and it doesn't bother me in the least.
If we can't beat the train wreck that is the Hornets with the rest of the team, we don't deserve to be in the NBA.
Our lineup is Bibby, Doug, Pedja, Darius and Brad...
Their lineup is P.J. Brown at the center and a bunch of other guys...
Officials are okay; none that stick out as absolutely hating the Kings.

You should have someone move your television for you...
You'd have to see my living room to understand, but the TV can only be in one spot in the room. Because of the non-movability of the wood stove, the couch can only be in one spot. That leaves only one spot for the computer. :D

Commercial.
:: does double take ::
The non-movability of what?
Did your daughter forget to tell you that this is the twenty-first century? :p
The wood stove must stay in one position because of the stove pipe, additional insulation, etc. required by county ordinance.
:D
Oh wait - You're commenting on the "wood stove." Hey, I live in the forest. It's a lot easier to get wood - yes, legally - than it would be to heat my home with propane gas or electricity.
The thing I'm enjoying the most is seeing how Ostertag is starting to get comfortable with the team.
Start of second quarter...

Bibby inside to Tag for two.

37-29 KINGSNo doubt! Tag may not be a well rounded palyer, or all sttar material, but I think Utah really under utilized him.

keeping them on the bench would ensure that they always get rocked
Aries - Yeah, whatever....
DC is on the bench. The only seasoned Kings veteran in the game right now is Bobby...
NO at the line.
Makes first; misses second.
92-63 KINGS
Kings ball; foul called on NO; non-shooting.
24-second clock violation on the Kings.
NO ball.

Evans helping with the dunk fest!
NO miss; Kings board and long pass to Matt Barnes who dunks for two.
94-63 KINGS
NO ball. Smith for two.
94-65 KINGS
KIngs ball. Good ball movement; open look for Bobby but miss.
NO ball. Miss; Bobby is basket-hanging, gets the forward pass and the two.
Same play repeated but with Daniels to Evans this time for the dunk!
98-65 KINGS
NO ball; turnover. KINGS ball.

why doesnt he get more playing time? you know, i like him more than barnes... you know. Question of position. Barnes playes SF, for what it's worth there is no one better to rest Pedja. Flash is pure PG, and adleman wants Bobby in there to keep the rest of the Bench togehter. Look for Kevin in the final few min and thats about it.
Flash is a OG - can't play the point. ;)

Barns hurt?
105-65 but I don't know how because my PBP thread has been hijacked into a discussion thread...
;)
Kevin still not on the court...
Very quiet in Arco. LOTS of empty seats. I don't blame them at all tonight; I understand the fog is really nasty...
105-67 KINGS
1 minute elft.
Evans for nice drive inside and dunk.
107-67 KINGS

i understand that, but maggette is like 6'6 and plays sf.... he's also a lot bigger than martin but.... it would still be nice to see him get more minutes.

40 + .. was it empty the whole game ? becuase i thought it looked sold out during 2/3 quarter lol
Barnes hit his hand during his dunk, but I think he just momentarily numbed it. He's still out there and not holding it or anything...
107-69 KINGS after Andersen shoots two from the line.
Barnes shot misses; put-back misses.
NO for two.
107-71 KINGS
Kings walk off the rest of the time on the clock.
Whooooooooot!!!

On yahoo sports, it says that Martin has the flu DNP Flu..
Arco was very loud up until about half-way through the fourth quarter. I don't blame people for leaving. :D
rhuber - No problem. I just have trouble trying to read all the people's comments and respond AND keep the PBP going.
Celt- Not a problem.
:D
It's all good. I mentioned I wouldn't want to be the Hornets tonight.
Thank you, mazzystar - I'm glad to know it was something like that and NOT just RA forgetting to give him some minutes.
:D
You know, though - that has to really suck. There's FINALLY a game where the "scrubs" are gonna get minutes, and you're sick??? Whoa... Poor Flash!

Hey... that's BIGGER than a 5 point lead!!!;)
thank god for small miracles, bad teams and big leads.... lol.
Tag just came out of the locker room and sat on Grant's lap... Now he's sitting next to Grant, replacing Jerry.
"Yep, you go from good lookin' to REALLY good lookin' when you get me!" - Tag
Grant congratulates Tag on a great game, doing exactly what he's supposed to do.
Tag whistles and says, "Hot chick over there." I'm shocked but then Grant says, "Mrs. Ostertag passing by..."
Tag says he had FIVE blocked shots but the scorekeeper didn't give him one of them. He says that's what he's on the court to do. Any points he can score are bonuses.
Tag talking about the Wizards possibly being one of the biggest surprises in the league this year.
"We can't take that game off," says Tag. "If we do, we'll lose."
"When you have two big white guys who can't jump (me and Brad), we have to box out."
Tag has a marvelous sense of humor...and I will say AGAIN that he is a valuable asset to the Kings organization AND the fans.

sucks that martin had the flu, this would have been his game.... but i guess there will be other chances to see him flourish. we out rebounded the hornets.... thats good to see.
Tag says he's still waiting for fans to start wearing HIS jersey. I just decided - the next jersey I get will be Tag's!!!
And now, I have a phone call to make...
Thank you, Kings, for a fun night!
Aries - I could outboard the Hornets right now. If you had ever actually met me, you would realize the irony of that statement.
:D

okay they suck.... but our big men are 3(4 if you count peja) white men who cant jump.... webber was out. i'm just amazed by the fact that they actually grabbed more boards than someone.
SacTownKid

Ostertag can rebound better than Webb anyday.
AriesMar27
12-19-2004, 10:26 PM
but webber can kinda sorta jump..... and is averaging 10 a game. though tag isnt playing nearly as many minutes....
Chris Webber is an All-Star Power Forward having an EXCELLENT come-back year after surviving what could have been a career-ending injury. Greg Ostertag is a back-up center who is providing this team with some much needed blocks and boards. If anything, perhaps he should be taking some of Miller's minutes...
Adelman is looking at everything that's happening. That's his job; that's what he does. It's gonna be up to him (RA) to find the right blend of time for Webber, Miller, Darius and Tag that will optimize the talents of each.

OK now this is getting carried away. The day anyone compares Tag and Webb there is something wrong. {Shakes head and leaves thread}

i was just saying that i was suprised that we out rebounded a team with 3 non-athletic white men grabbing boards.... 4 if you count peja, all 6'10 of him.

O'tag had a nice game and was also quite funny in the interview. Well now our bench doesn't look all that bad. However the team that we beat wasn't really that good, so we shouldn't get carried away with this win.
We still have to prove ourselves against good teams, especially the TWolves and Spurs.
