The SacTownRoyalty blog has some perspective:
Getting spanked by the Hornets--whatever city they're from (it just says "Hornets" on the uniform)--is not good.
I didn't see the game, but from the looks of things, P.J. Brown was about the only player for either team to have a really good game. And as for bad games, consider these field goal shooting numbers from the Kings: Peja Stojakovic 5-14. Mike Bibby 3-11. Bonzi Wells 2-11. Francisco Garcia 1-6. Kevin Martin 1-5. Jason Hart 0-4. That's 31% team shooting, to go with 20 turnovers, and they only got to the line 19 times. Oh, and did I mention Sacramento was outrebounded 52-36.
That's not something to build on. This is one to forget about.
As for the Hornets, I'm thrilled for this unlucky franchise to get an enthusiastic crowd and a big win. Now all they need is a few more wins and new owner!
You can't win them all. If you're going to lose one, you might as well make it fun for somebody.
Have fun, Oklahoma City and New Orleans and Baton Rouge. Have fun.
