Melo is probably done, after taking that fall a few minutes ago.

No team compares to those Kings teams back in the day in terms of entertainment lolreclegend22;1342355 wrote:New York's ball movement is outstanding, almost reminds you of a great college team. The chemistry and cohesion there is amazing. You rarely see such brazen unselfishness and movement of the basketball like this in the NBA. They remind me of Sacramento in the early 2000s. Definitely the most fun team I've watched in a long while in the pros. League Pass is worth it just for these guys.

Yeah, Im pretty sure the only guy who looked to score before pass was Bobby Jackson off the bench lol.robj55;1342410 wrote:No team compares to those Kings teams back in the day in terms of entertainment lol
Christie, Williams, Weber, Divac and Peja were awesome. Truly the "Greatest Show on Court".

The biggest shame in the mast 9 months is the country missing out on seeing Damian Lillard in the NCAA Tourney last march.

Agreed. Which is why I said "remind." I never missed a Kings game back then. I wasn't a fan of the team -- the Pacers were my team during my hardcore NBA days -- but rather a fan of the players and style of play. As Laley said, it was the Greatest Show on Court. The way those Kings played in the open court, Dallas and Phoenix didn't hold a candle. Rick Adelman had a special, special group.robj55;1342410 wrote:No team compares to those Kings teams back in the day in terms of entertainment lol
And like Arvydas during his heyday, Vlade was one of the prettiest passing big men who ever played the game. I loved me some Vlade Divac.

Bobby Jackson became one of my favorite players during that run with the kings. They were a blast to
Watch. But it was painful to see them lose to the lakers.

I still remember where I was when Robert Horry hit the three that changed the series. In my grandfather's living room in Dover. Kind of weird to think about, since not everyone who was in that room is alive today. I was devastated and it wasn't even my team. As soon as Horry hit that tip out, I knew the series was through.Midstate01;1342805 wrote:Bobby Jackson became one of my favorite players during that run with the kings. They were a blast to

Emotional game for Kevin McHale. Teared up pre game moment of silence and much more afterwards on Kevin Garnett's shoulder. After watching that who won the game doesn't matter. I think a little more of KG now.

The best part of those Sacramento Queens was watching the Lakers beat them every May.

Why does it matter? Does he have a problem with you rooting for Kansas? Browns and Reds? You don't follow all the rules and guidelines that have been set on here. Does anyone on here give a shit who anyone roots for other than some of the Browns fans on here?

The whole "fan" thing is so stupid. Who cares? Those who know me best, know I'm passionate about certain teams. Have been as long as they have known me. I make it known and it's not difficult to pick up if you meet me.
I know plenty of people who don't "have a team" and end up rooting for, liking and supporting different teams all the time. It doesn't make them less of a person, but it's quite obvious they aren't true fans. The kind of fan who gets nervous before a game. The kind of fan who gets teary-eyed when the season ends. The kind of fan who takes wins to heart, and losses really hard.
Maybe it's just me, but it's difficult to fake that. It seems like it would take too much effort to even do so.
