<div align="center">http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v228/EJamesX3/prediction.jpg"> [b]KjX3</div> Should be an interesting game, I'm looking fowards to the Chris Webber vs Elton Brand matchup. Keeping Brand off the offensive glass is a must, and the Clippers boast the 6th best opponent rebounds per game in the entire league. Limiting Maggette's trips to the foul line will also be key, Peja will draw a tough defensive assignment, perhaps Cuttino would be a better matchup given his athletic ability. I also look for Brad Miller and Chris Webber to draw Elton Brand, and more importantly his shot blocking presence, out of the paint with their mid range jumpshot ability. Brand is averaging over 2 Blocks a Night, forcing him to defend towards the perimeter will open up cutters and lanes to the basket for other Sacramento players. The Clippers are also coming off perhaps their biggest win of season in a double overtime contest against The Heat, defeating The Best in The East by just 2 Points. Perhaps this confidence boost can give them enough to surpass The Sacramento Kings and their new additions? Should be an entertaining game, hopefully Cuttino will finally make his debut, and I'm looking for Sacramento to simply shoot the lights out and put The Clippers offense to shame. Kings win in Mobley's debut!!! 98 111
very nice... you are great with these... just not always right lol..... but im thinkin today Mobley will play and we will get the W
I think that the Kings should come out on fire with their new look offense and smoke the surprising Clippers at Arco by 11. Hey NBAFan4Life, isn't it a little early to be throwing up that sig?
The Other LA Team the Clippers come to the Arco and face the Kings in what i think will turn out to be a really good game.Last night with the Heat,the Clippers played a really great game and took Miami into 2 overtimes and got the win.I Do think the Clippers don't get that much credit as they really should,and the Clippers are a team that you don't want to understimate at all. If the Kings wanna win,all we gotta do is guard Elton Brand,and have a good defensive game.The Clippers i do see as a challenge for us,but i think we will get the win at the end of the night. Kings 100 Clippers 98
but like you've all said already...the Clips are coming off a double overtime game...and a big game at that...us facing them the night after something like that bodes well for us we get to see them when they are in good position for a a "let-down" game the only thing thats unfortunate is that we play them again on Monday...hehehe

Im going out on a limb to say that its going to be a low scoring game. Bibby said last night that his wheel is feeling much better & that he is ready to play, but that its a game time decision... so he may not actually play. Webber, from what I heard last night is supposed to play, but again, this may be a game time decision. Yesterdays practice consisted mostly of Miller, Stojakovic, Ostertag and most of the rest of the bench and also minus Mobley (was not expected to take part in practice today) and may not be in the game tonight... as that is also a gametime decision (something to do with the third wheel in the trade not reporting to take his physical yet.... although Christie was in uniform for the Magic last night but did not play). Evans is also a gametime decision with the concussion but says that he feels fine now and remembers everything (at least he remembers everything now... LOL) Basically Adelman says that he is going to have to play this week & next week by ear & just kinda roll with what comes his way because of the injuries, trade issues and whatnot.... this game can really go either way. If the Kings show up and use the bench they have to its full potential, the Kings will win... If not than its anybodies game... unfortunatly, due to a prior commitment (who the heck schedules company "holiday parties" in mid Jan?? dang pagans ) I will not be able to either watch the game nor catch it on the radio...
^you better tape it my friend don't forget everyone....tonight is the 20th anniversary of the Sacramento Kings celebration...alot of the old guys are gonna be in the house
Webber ended up with 36 10 and 6 assists,shooting over 50% from the field.Its a good thing the Kings acquired Mobley,they probably would have lost if they didnt have someone to give them production in the backcourt.Bibby did nothing.Anyone know why Miller only played 27 minutes? Got outrebounded 31-49 .With rebounding being the main problem in this game im not sure why Ostertag only saw 5 minutes of playing time.It all matters less when you get the W .

I wasn't very impressed by Mobley's performance. His 4 blocks stood out, but I expected alot more from him. I know it's his first game and he doesn't know the team, but I just thought that he would show up and prove to everyone that he's a lot better than DC.
bigsheldy,was Mobley's first game performance better than a typical Christie performance this season?Id say so.Id give him more than one game to try and impress me.
Well with saturday's game and Yesterday's game over with with the Kings and Clippers,i have founded out the Clippers are a great team who can play with the best of them. The Clippers have a decent team,and they gave the Kings a challenge.So on that level i tip my hat to the Clippers!
