Uh oh! Here they go again

The ignominous story of the Sacramento Kings...

Ladies and Gentlemen, here is presenting your very own..."Sacramento Queens"...yes, we've officially renamed the franchise in honor of Shaquille O'Neal's moniker for us.

Afterall, we play crappy as ever on defense, and then accusing the opposing teams of grabbing/flapping, as the new Queen Cuttino Mobley just cried about to the press...

We are being socked by the referrees and the league because of our reputation on defense...afterall, when we are so free-rolling on offense, you can hardly expect us to play defense...hey come on..what are you playing at?

Even when we were getting shellacked by the Spurs at home to the tune of our worst home loss in 10 years, we (read Mike Bibby and Chris Webber) were still displaying our passion for the game by crying to the referrees about non-calls and bad calls. With that style of passion, you can hardly call us as anything but queens.

(All manner of joking aside, it is pretty easily obvious why the Sacramento Kings HAVE ALWAYS BEEN and WILL ALWAYS BE the bridesmaids to the league champions these past few years. They think they are pretty good overall, but with their crappy commitment to defense, they will get pulverized into submission by teams with a sustainable balance of offense and defense. Instead of sitting around and crying about lack of respect, if these dumb players would start playing with the same intensity that their fans display, then maybe just maybe, they will become the head honchos. But I just do not see that happening, atleast yet. Because unlike the NFL playoffs, where a team can get lucky and its a one-off game, the playoffs in the NBA are a 7-game grind.)
