Watched the Kings-Mavs game tonite at a local pizza place with a big screen television and wow did the Kings put on a show. The first quarter was some of the most beautiful basketball and one of the most amazing schoolings i've ever seen in sports. They outscored the Mavs 39-26 and didn't even turn the ball over until the last 30 seconds. The Kings starting lineup consists of 4 people who genuinely love to make the flashy pass (and one absolute deadeye shooter who runs around waiting for the last pass when he's wide open). Often not just one, but two beautiful passes on the same play. The combination of Divac and Webber especially is amazing, since they're both such amazingly good passers for big men. Speaking of Webber he sure put up a big game tonite: 29 points, 15 rebounds, and 11 assists, all game highs. After the Lakers game, the Nets game, and then this, its clear that the Kings are confident and that everyone else is a few steps behind.
