Does the Kings management approve of this? No excuses, but no wonder they got smoked! I have to believe young Johnson took the worst of it all, so maybe criticisism of his game should be tempered. Stupid tradition if that is what it is. Maybe they should grow up and act like professionals. |
Not sure of the source here but they didn't look too energetic during the pre-game warm-up, and it woulfd certainly account for thier dismal performance. They definately looked like sheet all night.We've all gone to work hungover before but you'd think they would be up for a nationally televised game.They must have really tied one on for someone to smell liquor on the bench
