Sacramento always had amazing fans. They were selling out every game last year and their fans stayed even when they being blown out Imagine them in the playoffs, that stadium will literally blow up
I took him in the 7th round. I thought I got pretty good value for that pick. You have to admit that his numbers tonight are disappointing even if he is diminished as a player I'll take 14/8 from him! That's what I'm expecting!
It was the threat of selling and moving the team that brought a bigger crowd in recent years. Oh, and the Kings will probably get that shiny new arena they wanted .... paid by taxpayer dollars of course
so has anyone ever played the best game of their career in the first game of their career (assuming they played more than a 10 day contract)? because i'm thinking mcw will have trouble ever topping a 22 points on 10 shots, combined with 12 assists to teammates who were assembled to lose, combined with 9 steals kind of night. 1 of 3 players in NBA HISTORY with a 22+/12+/7+/9+ game. that has to be one of the least likely performances ever, especially given he didn't exactly light up the summer league/preseason.
Kevin Love has legit 3-point range for a PF, he forces the defense to come outside the paint. That opens up the floor a lot more than Aldridge and his midrange J.

yeah and his range Top 10 PFs this year: 1) Kevin Love 2) Tim Duncan 3) Lamarcus Aldridge 4) Josh Smith 5) David Lee 5) Blake Griffin 6) Chris Bosh 7) Zach Randolph 8) Greg Monroe 9) Kevin Garnett 10) Tristan Thompson
I know this has been mentioned before a zillion times, but just imagine if the Rockets had Dragic instead of Lin.
They are pretty similar, actually. Dragic is kind of an older version of Lin with a more mature game.
I'd move Monroe up on that list. He's underrated. Just dropped 24 and 16 tonight. I would take him over Randolph and David Lee for sure, and maybe even Chris Bosh.
