Who were some of your favorite Kings players that are now retired or have moved on? One of my favorites was Lionel Simmons. I know he wasn't a hall-of-fame player, but he was a super nice guy who could score with the best of 'em. I remember getting his autograph back in 1992. The L-Train was signing autographs at Folsom Lake Ford.   Too funny--I  have an autograph  from Lionel too from the L-train--You were probably there!I really dug D. C. and his hustle and of course Bobby for the same reason--my fav players are  those that don't take anything for granted and have heart--I hate players that are complacent that act as if they are  above the fans and not real people--Simmons was cool as a King-miss Vlade too BUT HATED seeing him in faker yellow(wierd!)   I too miss the Kings from even a few years back. Like Vlade, Christie, I also liked Jimmy Jackson as a Kings player. Of course "WHITE CHOCOLATE" Jason Williams was cool...except when he would jack up 3-pointers from midcourt with 20 seconds left on the shot clock...used to drive Adelman crazy with those shots..LOL! Oh yeah, I can't forget Mitch Richmond. For awhile there, he was all the Kings had to be proud of.  I got his autograph back in 1997. He was signing autographs out at a place that used to be called "Incredible Universe", which was out off of Northgate or Truxxel, right off of I-80.

HA_HA!yeah,I remember 'white chocolate" J>Will! n' those 3-pointer attempts!!not just coach Adelman, but Turner and everyone else rolling their eyes BUT I LIKED HIM ANYWAY as a fan...: & Mitch was a cool dude like jimmy jackson..only reason I can tolerate Phoenix winning is to see Jimmy Jackson doing well...thought the coaching staff shoulda played him more when he was here i liked his energy & p@$$ion off the bench like Bobby J.
