Early 00's Kings Appreciation Thread

[GilSho]

C Webb, Peja, J Will/Bibby, Divac, Doug Christie, Hedo etc Name another team apart from the Showtime Lakers that put on a passing clinic like they did and consistently made 2/3 highlights plays almost every night.




I still remember crying like a bytch when this went in. That team deserved a ring brehs.

The Nash/D'Antoni Suns were better

Nash, Amare, Matrix, Joe Johnson, Boris Diaw, plus all the shooters they had bruh. Imo them Suns teams had more talent

Both squads were hella exciting to watch though

Disagree. That Kings squad win 2 rings if not for bad luck (Refs in 02, Webber breaking his leg in 03). D'Antoni's Suns were a regular season team.

Grant Napear talking about the Kings arriving in China in their heyday, getting the Michael Jackson/Beatles treatment.

Every team is striving for that window of opportunity where you can win it all. Kings had that window, got screwed out of theirs.

Refs didnt stop the Kings from choking a home Game 7 in 02. Entire team except Bibby came up p*ssy in that game

Kings wouldnt have beat the Spurs in 03 anyway

They werent a regular season team, they could win in the playoffs. Only team the Suns couldnt beat was the Spurs. They might have a chip if SA didnt have their number constantly.

Peja was that dude

I'm a Suns fan, but I think them Kings would've got us.

Webber & Divac on the inside would be too much for Marion & Amare to deal with.

Divac & Web would've made Amare look more retarded than he already was on defense.

No way could he deal with that kind of craftiness.


Would've been a ridiculously fun series, tho

Peja snuck one in as well

More Foreign Shooters than the Sacramento Kings
