The Sydney Kings have returned to the NBL after a couple of years in the wilderness. Is anyone else here going to the home games? I live 5mins walk from the Kingdome, so I am going to as many as possible. There was a dude there at last nights game who did the slingshot bit with the mascot at quarter time rocking the old school home white Olajuwon jersey...any chance this was a clutchfan?
I was at the game last night against the Crocs too. I was cheering when I saw that guy with the Olajuwon jersey. I probably won't go to any other home games unless they're on a Friday or Saturday night.
Nice, they need to play better too...the quality of the 2 home games thus far has been pretty much horrendous. Good to see decent turnouts - but with final scores like 64-59 it's not a great advert for the game. Grizzard is one of the worst imports i've seen in Australia.
Hey Aussie, I'm going to the Sydney Kings game this sunday against the Hawks. I'm expecting a blowout now that the Hawks are #1 in the NBL standings. It would be good to see them play though. I got the tickets at a dirt cheap $12 each (lat minute tickets). Even if the standard of NBL is very low at the moment, I reckon the Kings can get good turnouts with the price of tickets these days. I don't know how they pay their overheads at the Entertainment Centre with their standard price for tickets at $25. Anyway, that Kazzou (sp?) fellow is really good and is the Kings only bright spot. Grizzard has also been cut due to a chronic injury and they're trialling some new imports.
