As a sports fan watching your favorite teams throughout the years, don't you ever get that excitement and sense that you are witnessing something special?  You savor every moment, whether you watch a win on the tube, or take in the sounds and roars of the crowds live at the game.  You follow the personalities and drama unfold through every highlight, lowlight, and newspaper article.  I felt that way in the middle of the 1998-1999 season, when Kings GM Geoff Petrie assembled the greatest nucleus to ever don Sacramento Kings jerseys and take the league by storm for the next 6 seasons.  Chris Webber, Vlade Divac, J-Will, Peja Stojakovic, you know the names.  They are etched in every Sacrament

I would mix in fun questions as ice breakers for the players and sprinkle in the serious topics afterwards. I feel we can be informative, entertaining, and fun all in one! - Do you have a pre-game ritual/meal before every game? If so, could you please share? - Most Embarassing moment on the court? - Did anyone inspire you to play ball growing up? If so, who? - What is the weirdest thing a fan asked you to sign? - Sacramento loves our team and our players. Do you get stopped alot around town by fans like myself and talk to you like you are long lost friends? - Do you read articles about the team and yourself? If I had a regular article on Sacramento Press on the Kings where I would rip or praise the team based on performance, would you ever gloss over it? - How do you feel about me as Joe Fan interviewing you right now over news scribe that writes about you for a living? - Us fans didn't see last year's record coming. What can the fans expect from this year's team??

Thanks for the information! Its a tradition for me to go to the Paint the Town Purple Events the Kings hold every year to shmooze with the players. I'm excited about the events this season as well and will try to make it out to as many as I can! :)
