"We usually let them win in Las Vegas because it's good for the Maloof boys, for merchandise sales and for gambling," Jackson said. As for Friday's, Jackson said before the tip that the Kings are vulnerable, now and the rest of the season, when taking large leads, getting comfortable and then allowing teams to roar back to make it a fight to the finish.

Ahhh, Phil Jackson trying to rain on the parade, what else is new? Damn I cant wait till we face them in the playoffs. Wonder what he's gonna say after we're done kicking their asses.
I'm not surprised the coach of the Lakers is just like his fans-- crying after a loss. Suck it up as a loss, Phil.
^werd. But does he have a point? I haven't been watching the Kings GamES(I can't). HAVE they been becoming too comfortable ?
The Kings wentoff today in the Kings/Clippers game today. They scored 71 in the first half and Peja put up 31...all is good
