It would seem that last night’s infernal burst of Gilbertology might truly need no comment from ours truly. As in, we live in heaven, he lives alone, our souls are intertwined and the moment need not be soiled by explanation. The more and more I gazed upon that fascinating... Link
Sacramento 105, Bulls 101, OT * Mike Bibby and Ron Artest combined for 58 of the Kings' points CHICAGO Mike Bibby scored 31 points and Ron Artest added 27 and 14 rebounds to lead the Sacramento Kings to a ...... Link
I promise to come back full force on Monday. If not, I'll give you your money back. I'm not yet ready to pronounce the Kings as back - 3 out of 4 is cool and all, but it was the Clippers twice and Boston. And we're still five games... Link
So, 10-17 is bad. 7-9 at home is bad. A second five-game losing streak is bad. Dead last in the Pacific Division for most of December is bad. Losing to four last-place teams before New Year's is bad. Remember, the Knicks were in the Atlantic cellar at 0-5 when... Link
Three Situations to Pay Attention To (Because Five Just Makes This Column Too Damn Long) Denver Earl Watson was one of my favorite guys to write about when doing this column last year. The Memphis rotation prevented him from having consistent fantasy value, but whenever Jason Williams was out,... Link
As if you needed anyone to tell you differently, Dirk Nowitzki is the unquestioned star of this team. Even when his shot isn’t falling, like the past couple games, where he’s shot a miserable 17-for-51, Dirk is still able to be a real asset. He still puts plenty of... Link
It's Day 2 of our "God Save the Kings" campaign. Day 1 brought kind words of encouragement from True Hoop and an always valuable link from Deadspin. Also, the always jolly Jody at the Bleacher Mob liked the Weezer riff. Awesome. Day 2? Well, my socks are wet thanks... Link
The Nets franchise is fascinating. I wholeheartedly support its move to Brooklyn - little could do more for the NBA than sticking a team in Brooklyn. One thing that could? It involves a parade and J Street. Count me among those who pray to the basketball gods that Carter,... Link

Graswich this morning, apparently on a mission: Sacramento police spent two hours last week interviewing two women who say they were attacked by friends of Kings guard Mike Bibby on a Sacramento street in September. Bibby watched the assault and did not participate, the women told police. "I have... Link
Ah, the NBA schedule... For every Detroit Pistons, there's a New York Knicks. God bless Russ Granik. Tip-off around 6 p.m., televised on Comcast SportsNet with radio on 1140 AM.

So BV did his draft recap and now it’s my turn. Like he said, we start 10 players (PG, SG, G, SF, PF, F, C, C, UT, UT), with three bench spots, 12 teams. So it’s a pretty deep league, and it’s very competitive. Hard to slip sleepers past... Link
Here at FBB headquarters, we do our best to make sure that our readers (hi, Mom!) are as prepared as they could possibly be for their fantasy drafts. And because we did all these rankings, analysis, etc., you’d think that we’d be totally ready for our draft, which happened... Link
Fun post on Oddjack today: Gambling Web site Bodog has put down odds on who will be the first NBA player to be fined for violating the new dress code. The lead candidate, of course, is 76ers guard and Stephen A. Smith pal Allen Iverson, at 2/5. Other likelys... Link

Is it ever really too early to do a mock draft? Absolutely not. Especially with training camp starting next week, and the season only about a month away. So what we’re going to do is spend this week going through a mini-mock draft. Today we’ll do rounds one and... Link
The Charlotte Observer reports that the Bobcats will trade PG Jason Hart to the Kings for a future second-round pick. Hart has two years and about $3 million left on his current deal. He started in Charlotte last year, and had a good offensive rating of 112, according to... Link
The stat-tastic HoopsAnalyst is rounding up the best trades of all-time for each team in the league.

J.J. would've received an A+ if he hadn't worn a garbage bag like a crazy person. With the first round in the books, I thought it’d be interesting to revisit how each Sonic did. Here’s a quick and dirty on the contributors to OUR FIRST SERIES WIN ON THE... Link
Peja Stojakovic scored 24 points, Cuttino Mobley had 21 and the Sacramento Kings emphatically avoided getting swept in their season series with the SuperSonics, beating Seattle 122-101 Tuesday night.
