Plain and simple. This is unacceptable. None of the games were on TV so I couldn't see what's going on. Somebody fill me in.
It's called the texas triangle. Any teams that have to go on the road and face all 3 texas teams all in one go will likely come up empty alot of the time this year.
...because you aren't winning? I dunno Seriously though, at Dallas, at San Antonio, and at Houston, what did you expect?
You're not good enought to compete against Texas's big 3. No defense at all, no depth, no Christie, a disgruntled Peja, and this is what you get.
^ theyre definitely good enough to compete against them and they did except for against SA.They have a good rotation of big men as well as guards.Only place where theres no depth is at the 3. Slow start, short handed, on the road in texas like everyone said.It isnt like they played any mediocre teams.
Chemistry. I don't see how The Kings can have a season that can match any of the past three with the way things are currently shaping up to be. Webber is always a question mark, Webber's comments offended Peja and perhaps dismantled The King's chemistry beyond repair, Pressure on Peja to have a repeat season could prove difficult, No Grandpa Vlade to babysit and command on the court, Lack of Depth, and the list goes on. Honestly, I don't believe The Kings even trust in their own minds that their still contenders. Perhaps if Brad Miller, Webber, Peja, Bibby, Jackson, and Christie can stay happy and healthy the window can stay open another season, but history proves The Kings spend more time in the hospital bed than the throne. Aside from injuries though, Chemistry must be repaired or this could end up being a disastrous season.
Peja didnt show up in last years playoffs and got called out for it, so now they have chemistry problems? TEXAS TRIANGLE...

lack of defense is a big part of what is going on. but lets not forget, not only was it the texas triangle (not an easy road trip no matter what part of the season) but it was also the home opener for all three texas teams. do you really think that any team is going to waltz through that kind of situation is just not realistic. that is why I said I would be happy going .500 over the first 6 games i still stand behind my 55 win prediction

i thought the kings were definetely going to win against the rockets, but yao got hot, what can you do? the spurs was going to be a loss, but mavs the kings should have beat. well it's not the end of the season..yet.
It's 3 games in and everybody is starting to panic. They have had a tough start to the season schedule wise but things will even out down the road. I still think that this team will win the Pacific Division.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting sactomofo:</div><div class="quote_post">I still think that this team will win the Pacific Division.</div> and the championship, first year they really are the underdogs, they'll take the rest of the league by surprise...
Oh this team will no doubt win the pacific i agree. I started going for the kings in the lockout year because they were fun to watch. This is FAR from fun to watch,making me sick...

I don't think that anyone believes the King's will win homecourt anymore. They didn't do anything over the offseason. It's like watching a less talented Laker team, I see players coming off the bench who's names I have never heard before. Bibby, Webber, and Peja are not producing. Brad Miller is crying over calls. Not only that, but you are relying on Ostertag to play center? The Queens are done!
