In 2002 the Sacramento Kings had one of the most well balanced teams of all time. Led by Chris Webber, Peja Stojakovic, Mike Bibby, Vlade Divac and Doug Christie the Kings had the best record in the entire league. If not for some questionable officiating in the 2002 Western Conference Finals against the Lakers the Kings may have won their first NBA championship.

Yup, I watched that game and entire series live. I thought the refs were clearly attempting to manipulate the outcome of the game. That elbow by Kobe was such a dirty play and literally in front of the refs face. I believe Adam Silver understands the value small market teams bring to the league. The Kings really do have a great young core group of very talented guys. Coach Brown got them all to buy in all in. It’s a great thing to see. GO KINGS!!! LTMFB!!!!

Stern gets romanticized for being this great Commissioner, but dude was a Tyrant, who obviously fixed certain "situations" for certain Teams, and Players. I'm sure that Team Picture played a role in Stern not wanting the Kings to go to the Finals. A lot of people watched and rooted for the Kings, so Ratings would NOT have been an issue.

Was saying it for years. I think Stern firmly believed the best way to build a league was promote rivalries and push dynasties. Hockey and Baseball thrives in the 70s because they had tremendous teams running the gambit for years. The NBA had eight different champions! Steen got lucky with the Celtics Lakers but I’m sure he loves the fact that only eight teams won titles during his entire reign. Plus you have to give him credit for kicking out the coke heads. Cocaine nearly sank baseball in the 80s.

@@theleap2946 Stern's "achievements" are insanely overrated. For instance, the "before Stern the NBA Finals was on tape delay" myth happened for the last time in 1980. All other finals since have been live, a good 3 years before Stern's reign of terror. The "he got the drugs out of basketball" myth is another interesting work of fiction. Notice that he only went after players on smaller market teams? (Phoenix, Milwaukee, and Golden State.) Meanwhile Bob McAdoo was coked out of his mind even during his Laker years but was never ONCE punished for it? Yeah, Stern went after a couple of cokeheads and set small market teams back years in the process while the drugs flowed like hot and cold running water in LA, Boston and NY. Then there's the salary cap. Oh everyone talked about how GREAT it was for the sport, until Stern insisted on the Larry Bird rule being added at the 11th hour. The result was the haves and have nots being even further separated than they were before a salary cap was instituted. Then of course there's the open rigging that is the NBA draft lottery. Ever notice that with 1-2 exceptions, when the small market teams DID win the lottery, it was in years where it was a horrible draft class? This thing was rigged for so long that the media was calling their shot successfully for literally decades at a time. Then we get to how he handled Seattle. This was a thriving market with arena troubles and Stern behaved so badly that they don't even miss the NBA anymore and instead support the WNBA better than many NBA teams. And then there's refball that dominated his entire reign. From the phantom "flagerant foul" to keep the Indiana Pacers out of the 1994 NBA Finals, to the blatant rigging of the 2002 WCF, to the forgotten rigging that marred the 2001 ECF, and countless other examples but as soon as the media started asking questions, Stern banned them all from all NBA arenas and TV. So let's recap, Stern rigged games, the freaking DRAFT, selectively enforced his drug policy to wreck specific teams, imposed a kinda sorta soft salary cap that was only enforced on smaller markets, (see how he destroyed the Minnesota Timberwolves in 2004,) alienated fans on every possible level, and destroyed entire franchises/markets. Still trying to see where the good outweighs the bad since Stern makes Roger Goodell look like Pete Roselle.

A small fact folks forget is that, in game 4, at the end of the first half, Samaki Walker “made” a shot at the buzzer, but the clock had already expired. Later, Horry’s shot gave them the 1-pt win, which wouldn’t have been possible without that earlier shot. Later, the NBA established the backboard lights to light at the end of quarters to help determine whether the ball was released on time.

Bibby was clutch as hell and they had some great moments and series and good ball movement but you do not win a championship with 1) Rick Adelman as your head coach and 2) with your nominally best player playing hot potato in the clutch moments - and let's be honest C-Webb was kinda a choker. so yeah... 2002 hurts the Kings fans and rightfully so, also don't forget they lost a crucial game to a Robert Horry game winning 3 at the buzzer, instead of going up 3-1... and that was all against a prime time Shaq/Kobe Lakers!!! Except the Blazers also taking it to 7 games, and the Spurs beating LAL in 2003 (when Horry missed a game winning 3!) and the Pistons in 2004 amidst Kobe/Shaq ever-growing drama, the Kings were clearly the biggest challenge in 2002. but also to be honest, despite some bad calls in game 6, they did have a game 7 at home to win it... and blew that game.

Kings may be contending for the title sooner. Wouldn't surprise me by next season or 2, maybe even earlier. Never underestimate what Kings can do especially when they are young, chemistry is there, influence of Mike Brown. Fox and Sabonis may be even better than last season. Their home record wasn't even great last season, but I do expect better home record this season possibly top 10. Golden 1 Center could be a nightmare place for any team.

The series against the Lakers was the beginning of the slow slide out of NBA fandom for me. I kept watching for a long time after, but if there were a chart that showed my games/minutes watched you'd see a steady decline to 0. The superteam era and just a plethora of generally unlikable "stars" (Leflop, Never plays Harden, Simmons, so many others) and "analysts" finished what little was left. Haven't watched a game in several years now. Relegated to watching old games on KZfaq now when i need a sports fix

Fun fact: the Kings actually shot 204 FTs to the Lakers 185 FTs in the 2002 WCF. So before any crybaby Kings fan screeches that the series was rigged against them, go watch the 2007 WCSF Spurs vs Suns, 2006 Nba Finals Heat vs Mavs or the 2023 WCSF Lakers vs Warriors.

As a Lakers fan, I find no fault in the 2002 WCF. Every single Lakers win in that series was 100% fair and un-assisted by the refs or David Stern. And Kobe did not foul Mike Bibby as Bibby's face was simply in the way of Kobe's elbow.
