Right Now, the Kings are matched up with the Sonics in the Playoffs. But.. Rashard Lewis is out indefinatley with a bone bruise for the Sonics. http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=2028093 <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Rashard Lewis has a deep bone bruise in his right foot, sidelining the Seattle SuperSonics' All-Star forward indefinitely. Team officials said Friday they'd know more about the injury after weekend tests. "He had an MRI today, and it showed a bone bruise and a bruise to the tendon," general manager Rick Sund said. "We're going to do a bone scan tomorrow and a CT scan Monday to get a little more information about how long he's going to be out." </div> That takes away the 20ppg 5rpg #2 Scoring option for the Sonics.... <font color="Indigo">Do You Think The Kings Have A Better Chance in The Playoffs vs. The Sonics(if they play them)</font>
Currently the Kings are in the 5th spot ,being a 1/2 game ahead of houston.I still think that houston will narrowly pass Sac for that 5th spot though.The Kings definitely have a better chance of getting by Seattle than Dallas,since they'll be w/o Brad Miller.Thats pretty unfortunate for Seattle though,too many teams have tasted the injury bug this year.Something I dont like about this matchup though is that if the Kings dont make it past Seattle I forsee a whole big arguement between Kings haters and fans in which the arguement will sound something like "Well seattle was w/o Lewis who was an allstar and Miller wasnt."The reply to that will be"the Kings run there offense through their bigmen and Miller has become the main guy."Yuck,cant all the players in this series just be healthy for once?
I've been told by a good friend of mine(Sonics Fan) that Shard is most likely only out for a week or so.
