Thanks refs. Thanks a lot. I actually just sent the NBRA (National Basketball Refereess Association) a really nice thank you card with a special personal note that said in part “I’m really happy that you guys conspired to SCREW the Kings out of a WELL-DESERVED win in the first game of the first full season of the post-Demarcus Cousins era! Thank you SO much!”
There was a lot more to it. I’m not going to post the whole thing, because I just reread some of it and it doesn’t really reflect well on your old pal DownToBuck. I kind of regret sending it now, but it’s too late to retrieve it from the mailbox. Tampering with the mail is a federal offense, don’t you know.
Anyway, the Kings looked pretty good out there tonight, especially their bright-eyed and puffy-haired rookie, De’Aaron Fox. He’s pretty quick. People had told me about that particular attribute of his, but I don’t know if I truly realized how speedy he is. If the Kings wanted to try and recreate those insane-paced 80’s Nuggets team with Fox at the helm, I wouldn’t be mad at all. See if Vince Carter can keep up.
