Up and down all year

Just as I watched this game I like the players we have but I am also beginning to think that we need to sure up our team's rotation. When we have five or six players score in double figures, it looks impressive but in the long run we need to sure up the rotation. So many players on our team do the same thing and I get tired of looking at the box score and seeing 5 or 6 players take around the same amount of shots. There isn't a dominating figure on our team except maybe Gasol and sometime he doesn't bring it like he should. I know West doesn't need to make a a trade in haste but something needs to happen and soon.

Why do you feel the constant need to trade someone? I don't recall ever seeing a post from you that doesn't involve a trade.

James Posey and Peja Stojakovic run up the floor both jawing at each other. Posey eventually just sticks his hand up and Peja slaps it away. Posey gets a technical foul.

This isn't even a real game.

And the BS hasn't stopped yet.

Memphis FT/FTAs: 10-14
Sacramento FT/FTAs: 25-32

Memphis fouls: 26
Sacramento fouls: 15

It's been 8 v 5 the whole damn year.

Its getting to the point where games just aren't enjoyable. I can't watch a game without getting pissed off. Its admirable that our guys can keep playing so hard through all of the bs.

Don't get me Wrong

I like the team we have and I am proud of the way the team has played thus far but I do get tired of the constant rotation. Having depth is great but if you want to be a contender somebody has to standout and be the guy. I hope it's Gasol because I do really like him and what he can bring. But we need to make a definitive decision about the who's going to play big minutes and who's not.

For example:

Posey
Battier
Jones

Jones is a rookie who probably won't play alot

But to a ertain degree these three are pretty much the same. Neither one does anything better than the other. Having more than two players that do the same thing is not having versility, it's silly.

But repeat, I am not down on the team. I am just making observations.

Side Note - - - -

But I would like to see:

Williams
Wells
Posey
gasol
Wright or Swift or Jake

Miller is just too unselfish to play the shooting guard spot. His attribtes can be better used if he played with the second unit. Wells wants to ball and the shots and he will be more aggressive than Miller.

Way to go Posey. Too bad he couldn't get one of the refs as well.

Low-class move by Peja Stojakovic. Low...class. It's 111-97 and Peja's trying to Ricky Davis his way to forty points. It was a vindictive drive to the basket trying to do nothing more than stick it to Posey for the altercation earlier. I thought the little rat was above such underhanded tactics, but the entire Kings organization showed just how classless they were tonight.

Not that I would normally advocate something like this, but a move like that almost...ALMOST...deserves a Danny Fortson style intentional foul. Going to the basket with 11 seconds on the clock trying to embarass your defender is akin to swinging on a 3-0 pitch when your team has a double-digit lead. If pitchers are allowed (rather liberally) to headhunt in Major League Baseball, then I see no problem with a fair equivalent in the NBA. There was a minute left, and Peja was gunning three-pointers like no tomorrow. If you're going to run up the score in an attempt to (1) get 40 points; (2) stick it to your defender; and (3) embarass a team that defeated you earlier in the year, then you deserve whatever you get. If Stojakovic would have broken something on that fall to the floor, I would not have had the slightest bit of sympathy.

I just lost any respect that I previously had for the Kings. What a classless bunch. I really would have never expected such things from Peja.

I never like that Stojackvic character even in his early days in Sacramento. He just reminds me of that cocky ***** who thinks he is better than everyone else in life. Ugggghhhhh.. I didn't see the game, but from reading what Rawse and Talula had to say, there points sum up the game best.


Why are we not getting calls when we are a hard-working good chemistry-bound team???What is the deal?? I thought refs reward hard-working teams with calls on the floor. I mean, at least some calls. Geez, I guess some refs are just biased in there calls. Grizzlies are still not getting the respect they've earned this year. Hubie and Jerry will talk some sense into someone upstairs eventually.


Low-Class move by Stojackvic?? Nothing I wouldn't expect from a stat-hungry guy like that.

No masked cursing (even if I completely agree with you)

I'm betting that was not the best time to bring up a trade proposal was it??

You don't have to respect the Kings talula. I still respect Memphis even though we lost at Memphis. We might lose again when we come but I won't lose respect for Memphis. You guys are just angry and saying all kinds of things but it's aight.

It had nothing to do with us losing. You guys have beat us many,many (did I say many?) times, and I still loved to watch the Kings. The move by Peja was just low-class. Doesn't make me like you Kings fans any less though. DaUnbreakableKinG is still okay with me.
