Chris Kreager Actually, the final nail was in 2006 when Geoff Petrie decided not to renew Rich Adelman's contract. The Kings have yet to make the playoffs since Adelman left Sacramento.
Bart Simpson is gangsta Also, Geoff Petrie had poor drafting where he failed to find successors to those players and like I said, the final nail in their coffin was in 2006 when Petrie decided to not renew Rick Adelman's contract.
Anthony Edwards has become a Superstar, their best player for the Wolves since Kevin Garnett. He has taken the Timberwolves to the Western Conference, and it is exactly 20 year anniversary.
It is easy to forget how good prime Garnett was. The Celtics champion Garnett was just a shadow of it. KG deserved better in his prime. He could have easily won a few with the right team.
Hell ya. What he say in Boston after title win? "this is for Minnesota". Crazy. Crazy thing to say but he brought us so close, he wanted one for his adopted home, Minnesota.
The Last Playoffs Game of Webber wih the Kings. CW was clearly out of shape in that serie… The Kings knew at the end of the game, it was their last chance to win a NBA Title.
@@anonymoushero9091In this game 7, you saw him running not well, i didn't undersand why he shot at 3pts at the end too... Next season he had been traded in Sixers, and the Kings never passed the 1st round of playoffs... The END of ERA for the Kings.
Yea, not a fair matchup comparong KG to retiring Webber, he had his moments in this series but not close to his prime. Even as a wolve fan I got tired of the #4s being compared. Webber is a legend and in his prime KG would be hard pressed to matchup
@@TheDignam looked like he was blaming the ref for not calling the foul. Rhere was another play where he could have dunked it but saw KG there and gave it to Miller who got blocked then tied up for the jump ball. Webber should have went for it
@@christiannieto9827 on mvp kg, very low % shot kg had 5 blks in this game plus webber didn't have his explosiveness any longer Peja, was reason the kings, lost he shot 35% in this series in only avg 17 a game while he avg 24 a game during the season .
And even with Webber's injury in 2003, they should've beat Dallas. They blew that double OT game and let Nick Van Exel (a 13 ppg guy) score 40, ugh lol
If it weren't for Derek Fisher and a couple plays here and there in this series, it would've been Kings-Spurs in the WCF, and let's be real the Kings would've smoked SA (and I say this as someone who loves Duncan and Pop)
ThatNewPimpTrickGangstaClickAlbum GonnaBeThatFire Shoulda, coulda, woulda. Now the Kings have to mumble even more when the Warriors beat them to the punch for three NBA titles in the last four years.
2002 conference finals, the refs made the Pistons miss 11 free throws? The refs forced the Kings to play hot potato with the ball because they were too scared and shrank under the pressure? The refs caused Chris Webber do what he does best, disappear in crunch time and choke at the end of the game? I say those as an avowed Lakers hater, the Queens did their part to ensure a Lakers victory.
Yea true, it was a one year deal, guys passing their prime, Cassell got hurt, Latrell shot just over 30%. Had those 2 been in their prime maybe all the way. Sam showed up, his up the key floaters were gold, Spreewell was so much better years earlier, but he was selling his spinner shoes as much as playing.
He was such a defensive powerhouse. Like 5 steals a game and hitting clutch shots. They had no shot without him. Bibby is great,but a small pg with hit and miss shooting. Vlad was a sob out there too
I think it should have been Wolves going to Finals & beating Lakers in WCF but loss the series 2-4 because this was KG in his prime & Sprewell/Sam were there. I was rooting for Kings or Wolves to beat Lakers but I'm glad it was Pistons who did it. Miss the old team from this yr but for Kings 2002
Like Garnett is soo lucky Chris couldn't fully leap and extend to contest his shots even furter at this point Chris was playing it safe for his careers sake. for those who don't know. .
Maybe not this game. KG could not be stopped by anyone. He was throwing 3 point ropes all net. He was not letting this game go. I was there. KG had the answer for almost everything. Doug Christie killed me.
Webber is such a damn choker. This game he missed an open 3 to tie and a wide open layup in the last minute. In 2002, he choked away the WCF along with the rest of the Kings. And I'm not even talking about what he did as a college player.
That’s the difference between Chris Webber and clutch PFs like Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett. Unlike those two, Chris Webber was known as a choker in his entire career and succumb in clutch moments and pressure situations. Ppl make excuses for the 2002 WCF being rigged which is true but at the same time, the Kings would of won regardless if they would’ve had a clutch PF like Duncan and Garnett on their team. Go watch Game 6 & 7 in that series and Webber did nothing to raise his game the next level and Mike Bibby was the one hitting all the clutch shots to keep the Kings close. Now watch Game 6 of the 2003 WCSF, and watch Tim Duncan actually raise his level of play and help his spurs blow the Lakers out on their home floor with 37 points and 16 rebounds.
Was at this game. KG finally took charge, jumped up on tables. Outside after high 5s from everyone black white all just saw best of KG and the he Wolves and we were all brothers in celebration of that night downtown. People just yelling and running downtown. KG did the impossibly difficult out of his box stuff, his 3s were ropes and it seemed he could do no wrong
Since this series wolves only been to the playoffs 1x and this the last time the kings was in the semis and only 2 playoff appearances since. In fact since 2006 Kings no playoff appearances. While the wolves 1x which was 2018. These 2 franchises been in poverty
I never make no comments on no UA-cam channels, but today is different. This video I'm going to say the Sacramento. Kings was robbed from probably three championships in five years because Of the referees
Webber Garnett Duncan Dirk J.Oneal Rasheed Amare - Great Era for PFs
Young Pau Gasol was putting some numbers during his first 2-3 years
Even tho Clippers werent contenders, Elton Brand was also a PF putting up numbers
The end of an era for Sacramento.

Chris Kreager. True even though they made the playoffs in 2005 and 2006 those kings teams werent that good compared to the 2001 to 2004 teams.
Bart Simpson is gangsta Also, Geoff Petrie had poor drafting where he failed to find successors to those players and like I said, the final nail in their coffin was in 2006 when Petrie decided to not renew Rick Adelman's contract.
Last time the Kings were passed the first round of the playoffs. 2005-2006 got bounced out first round.
Legends Never Die nobody saw the rise of Phoenix coming in their own division.
Anthony Edwards has become a Superstar, their best player for the Wolves since Kevin Garnett. He has taken the Timberwolves to the Western Conference, and it is exactly 20 year anniversary.
Best player and a superstar who almost got swep😂
It is amazing. As of 2019 both teams have not won a playoff series since that year.
Wolves have 1
@@izknuit Playoff series wins, not playoff game wins. TWolves lost in the 1st round in 2018.
Still none as of 2022, MIN should've won this series against MEM
@@SmooveTV7182024 it happened
It is easy to forget how good prime Garnett was. The Celtics champion Garnett was just a shadow of it. KG deserved better in his prime. He could have easily won a few with the right team.
I was there! I can't even begin to describe the noise level at 13:30. Epic game and series!
Bibby was so clutch. Endless great passes and clutch shots down the stretch.
Actually the end of an era for both teams......fitting that it came down to a Game 7 on the final shot of the game
Yep. Cassell got hurt we had to use a 3rd PG. T'wolves will always suck if McHale is involved. Thanks for Joe Smith
Who is here after Timberwolves advance to the to Western Conference Finals today 5/19/24?
@@darwinrobles7 I am here after wolves almost got swep by Dallas🤣🤣
That's one of greatest game, which I have seen of all time! Garnett is absolutely hero!
Imagine this Garnett prime playing with Ray Allen and Paul pierce they would have won three championships in a row instead of one.
Hell ya. What he say in Boston after title win? "this is for Minnesota". Crazy. Crazy thing to say but he brought us so close, he wanted one for his adopted home, Minnesota.
Came here after T Wolves won game 7 tonight
That was a very underrated semis match up for the these two squads

@@heatmoon Webber was excellent with the Kings, from 1999 to 2003.
1 minute left in the 4th quarter, Sacramento is in control. But that Chris Webber missed lay-up changed it all.
Sacramento was never in control in this game. And they were down by 4 when he missed that shot.
The commentator said "What The Miss !" Even Webber screamed after his missed, he understood his Huge mistake...
And his 3 point attempt to force OT went in and out.
@@TheDignam looked like he was blaming the ref for not calling the foul. Rhere was another play where he could have dunked it but saw KG there and gave it to Miller who got blocked then tied up for the jump ball. Webber should have went for it

I fell so damn sick for Webber...
Literally same. This effectively was his last chance at a title.
No it was in 2002, then he was always injured, and the Kings started to decrease...
The OnePrime. True but the Kings would of lost to the Lakers or pistons regardless
Bart Simpson is gangsta game 6?
Was he hurt this game? He moved so slow
Doug Christie with the clutch D and THREE. Could've been up by 1, if only...
I came here for Anthony Edwards they said 20 yrs anniversary when they won game 7 vs Denver
Well Wolves did it again.
@@michaelguerrero3684 Yeah bro and WON 1OOO USD
KG totally deserves it. Webber was surprisingly good in this one considering his athleticism and jumping were almost gone
Yep. There were moments in a the series which reminded you what game he had. So far past his prime, but he didnt roll over
Damn.... R.I.P. Sacramento. This team could've had a 3 peat from 2001-2004 if it weren't for the refs and Webber's knee injury. But we'll never know.
And even with Webber's injury in 2003, they should've beat Dallas. They blew that double OT game and let Nick Van Exel (a 13 ppg guy) score 40, ugh lol

I can just imagine being in the target center for these play offs games
THIS IS THE KG ERA🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Would've been so entertaining to see Sacramento play LA again in the playoffs but they choked.
17:36 this era of kings airballed so many 3's in big games LMAO

StayStrong1990 only if sam didn't get Injured
StayStrong1990. I wish we would made the finals but i think detroit would of won in a sweep
Sam Cassell was hurt and missed much of the WCF. It may not have mattered, but the Wolves chances would have been better with him.
Haha "catch and shoot" chris was like No... watch this

JB Bikerstaff at 19:06 in the yellow shirt?
Correct
Remember this like it was yesterday. Sigh
The PA announcer was on point
Lost 3 straight game 7's damn
KG played that final inbounds play so terribly. Man would have been devastated had that Webber 3 gone in.
The real nba
C Webb knees was shot at this point. Couldn’t keep up with KG
Classic game
CWebb you can tell his knees had lost explosion but that mid range never went nowhere
If not mistaken I think it was KG birthday.
