NBA Champions of 2006-2007: Sacramento Kings
Kevin Martin - April 29th, 2006
His first game winner. Sophomore. Vs the Spurs.
As Shaq says it best, " One great shot deserves another."
Is it for tonights game ?
New to the site, but not new to the Kings

Yep. One game suspension. This really sucks...
A dumb move by DMC, very dumb to hit a guy. He knows he has reputation against him, so he should stop giving the league/officials any reason to use it against him.
On the other hand, I believe the league is wrong here. Yesterday/Night before that Amir Johnson was trying to attack a referee and he also gets a one game suspension. If attacking a referee is one game, then a little shove which may not even be intentional should be a fine, not a suspension. That's called applying double standards.

The amir johnson should have been at least 3 lets be honest.
Stupid move, NBA. Stupid, stupid move.
You're *this* close to making me say **** it and walk.
Amazing.
DeMarcus really does have a complaint about the league office's conduct toward him at this point.

"Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities." --Albert Einstein
"Petrie signings are more akin to the splash you get when you accidentally drop your toothbrush in the toilet. " -- swisshh
The league openly says they apply different standard to different players based on their history.
This is ridiculous, but at least this is the league, not the team, trying to teach him a lesson. If it was the team he'd be gone...quickly.
He wasn't trying to hit the dude though is the thing. By the logic behind this suspension, people should get suspended for fouling another player

We won't have MT tonight either. (Personal reasons)
He was trying to hit the guy. He just was. You are lying to yourself if you think it was an unintentional play.
If Petrie wants to prove he is in fact not sleeping at the wheel and still has any balls whatsoever, he'll make a statement and blast the league. His repeated silence surrounding all things Cuz is really starting to piss me off.
Now, I do think Cuz could have handled himself a little better against Dal, but nothing he did, nothing, was worthy of a suspension, especially when Amir Johnson literally fights with a ref over the ball, has words with him and then throws his mouthpiece at him and gets one game. Even if the Kings appeal this, won't be done it time for the game tonight.
Let's see our organization actually step up here.
“Sacramento is where I want to be,’’ he said. “I want to bring the organization back, help the organization get started back winning. I love the city of Sacramento. That’s where I want to be. End of story. “We can dig a hole, throw that topic in there, cover it with dirt, pack it down. I want to be in Sacramento. End of story.’’ -DeMarcus Cousins
Our franchise literally is about to rise from the ashes.
The NBA won't have me either tonite, personal reasons. Bastards.
"Now why would I put my feet up on Eddie Murphy couch, I got a little more sense than that. What, you think I'm gonna do something just to do it?.........Yeah I remember putting my feet up on Eddie Murphy couch...." - Rick James
He said he wasn't and I'm willing to take the man's word for it.
NBA is just awful. I wonder if Lebron or Durant would get same suspension in game 6 of the finals? heck even during the season
This is stupid. I watched the video. I saw Mayo holding Cuz arm back Cousins jerked his forward and back to break the hold. Mayo let go in the middle of the backward motion allowing Cuz arm continue more quickly in that direction. End of story.
Die Hard
This is bull****!
Jim Capers once called a foul on me while I was sitting on the bench. Tweet! "Foul, number fifty-three! Five-three!" Everybody was confused and looking around for number 53, so I stood up and said, "I'm over here and the only thing I'm fouling is the water bottle." - Darryl Dawkins
When a players has a record of suspensions and trouble making, I think he can expect extra attention from the NBA and I agree with that. Using that logic, DMC will get higher punishment than guys who have been relatively clean. I personally think what is odd that nobody would have known what had happened if Mayo hadn't said something.
Upwards and onwards.
Bullcrap. Demarcus is an imature punk.Amazing.
DeMarcus really does have a complaint about the league office's conduct toward him at this point.
I agree that it didn't seem intentional. If it isn't clearly intentional, this punishment seems a bit heavy handed.
Upwards and onwards.
