I had the good fortune of attending the Media Day Fracas at ARCO Arena today, along with Tom Ziller (or rather the person carrying the computer that calls itself T0M Z1ll3R), and our very own jjham15. A lot of other people were there as well, Rob Small (aka rc360) of Sacramento Press, Zach Harper from Cowbell Kingdom, and of course Jason Jones. All of them are great guys and it was nice meeting them in person finally.
The setup was a little annoying, as it was hard to get to talk to the players unless you noticed them really quickly. Tyreke was surrounded really quickly, and knowing Tyreke, we didn't even bother to stick our cameras or voice recorders in there because we knew we'd barely hear anything anyway. Still, I did get to talk to and hear from a lot of players so here are some of my impressions after the jump. I have some video I shot as well that I'll probably post sometime later.
Well thats all I can think of for now. If I can think of anything else later I'll throw it in the comments. Overall this is an extremely engaging and likable group of guys, and I can't wait till the season starts so I can start rooting for them on the court again. The mood surrounding the team is all positive, and they feel that through working hard they can achieve great things. Its a good time to be a Kings fan.
