    They seem so hesitant out there. Every possession at least 2 guys seem to be constantly passing up open shots to penetrate, then find they can do nothing, then kick it out for a bad contested shot or drive in hoping for a foul call which wasn't coming tonight.

    After the tough loss to Dallas,every shot they took seemed not a good look out there and they just tended to pass up wide open shot opportunities.

    Maybe it's attributed to the bad field goal percentage lately? Only Shane Battier seemed determined and took open 3s from beyond the arc.

    If this problem cannot be resolved soon enough,we're gonna be dismantled from within,hesitation is gonna get the best of us and let us on a skid. :(

    Ouch,I bet you didn't catch up to the NBA games of late did you?

    After last night's loss to SacTown,which has put them up in front of us in West and goes 5-4 as we do.That's what you said the worst team in the whole NBA?Fair enough,then we're the worst too,and I wanna ask you this,what do you think about New Jersey Nets? Worst of the worst? :rolleyes:

    I'm just saying, sactown has a history of being even worse than the clippers, they only started doing good things this season.

    Now your just messing with us, right???

    Kings arent the Bulls, Lakers or Celtics but worse then the Clippers? I didn't know that was possible...Kings have had a few down years now but mid 90's to mid 2000's they where a powerhouse.

    Well,do not judge a whole different squad on a history basis,that's not even fair.Things could change rapidly in NBA if the volume player on the team got sidelined,which is more a case to the Rockets than to the Kings.

    All the ingredients for a loss were present, got massively out rebounded, could not make lay ups, the bench didn't show up, didn't play four quarters, the other team was throwing up anything and couldn't miss. I thought the Kings were going to try and bounce one off the scoreboard for two. If they had, they would have made it. Finally, the Rockets are short.

    Can't do it. Can't do it. Like someone else already said. Every loose ball bounced their way. It was a friggin joke.

    It was just one of those games last night. Sacramento started to hit everything at the end. That is what happens when you allow teams like that to hang around at home or in this case keep the lead for most of the game. Sacramento 4-0 since losing Martin so I wouldn't say they are scrubs right about now.

    Glad to see Ariza playing pretty good though.

    I've said it before, and i'll say it again, we need a good center, not having a good center is not the main reason we lost, we generally had a bad game, but we certainly could've done better if we had a decent center on the court..

    i'm rewatching the 4th quarter and both teams are headed in the same direction: young, athletic, with no stars, and playing off purely hard work and passion.

    the difference: tyreke evans will be a star out of their young guys; we don't have one.

    I wouldn't say we have no future stars on our lineup, it is just that our younger prospects had bad nights. We got very little production from the bench last night, which has usually been the difference between wins and loses for our team even when 4 of our 5 starters had double digit points.

    when i say star, i'm talking about all-star. none of our guys are future all-stars. they might look like them at nights, but they're not consistent enough.

    tyreke evans is ALREADY a go-to guy for sacto and he's delivering. when the game was tight, they put the ball in his hands and tell him to do your thing. he's going to be a very special player. so i'm sure sacramento is going to build around him.

    we're trying to get that player. tyreke evans would do this team wonders.

    It is hard to win game if we don't get the rebounds.
    35:54?

    Rebounds are one of the most important aspects of defense.
