Witch garb in black and purple hues When it comes to witch costumes, one color combination that is always popular is black and purple. These two colors are often associated with witchcraft and the occult, making them the perfect choice for any witch-inspired outfit. The color black has long been associated with witchcraft due to its associations with darkness, mystery, and power. Black is often seen as a color of protection and a ward against evil spirits. It is also believed to be a color that absorbs negative energy, making it an ideal choice for any witch costume. Purple, on the other hand, has a long history of being associated with magic and mysticism.

Gotta also look at it from the player’s perspective and probably ego as well. When you are the 3rd best player in a team, you expect to start consistently so your overall value goes up even though you might be more useful to the team as a second unit player. It would be hard to keep a player like Monk as a non-starter when it is time for a new contract.

Clearly I'm not discounting that as a possibility as I specifically called it out.

But he's more likely to win a post season award (6th man of the year) than anything he'll do as a starter, he is legitimately playing with one of his best friends, and he's enjoying two of his best years and will get paid handsomely for it (if he can stick it out a third year), or he can go start over and hope the magic carries over.

It depends what his priorities are. But his role is what is working best for the team, so hopefully he's happy in it.

that does seem to be a weakness of Brown. The Vale over Len and now Juan. I get that he is a veteran but didn’t like that decision.

Didn't JTA come in and help create the turnover that wasn't? Why all the second guessing, it would be great if we have another guy that can contribute?

Didn't someone say somewhere Len had the night off because of his injury? Has he played back to back yet?

I don't necessarily mind JTA as a player, but I question bringing in a dude for the biggest possession of the game, ice cold, to cover Paolo who was going full scorched earth on us. It worked with the (apparently fake) forced TO, but man. Questionable call.

Shout out to Keegan Murray and of course MONK! Can’t wait to watch the replay (of the 2nd overtime period for my mental health).

Makes sense, I guess I didn’t check the injury report before the game and didn’t hear it mentioned on the cast.

I suppose because they have similar length but JTA has some weight and strength on Kessler? Maybe he’s more physical? Still don’t know a lot about the guy.

I’m not really sure if JTA is supposed to have a reputation for defense but Brown seems to like him over Edwards on that end…because outside of tonight, JTA has been getting the end of quarter 15 second defensive possession that used to go to Edwards, and before that Okpala.

That is usually reserved for Brown’s top “specialist”.

Yup, Sabonis is a walking triple double machine (22pts/23reb/12assist) and no one is noticing. Not even Kings fans on this fan forum. LOL

I’m a bit perplexed by the Fox performance. Is he kind of like a sprinter as opposed to a marathon runner? Part of it was that monk had it going so he stepped aside, maybe sound logic and he did still play good defense but rough stretch for awhile

I liked that fox stepped to the side during the last of the 4th and OT. He stepped up in the 2nd OT, but he didn't have it tonight and he didn't force anything.

Like I predicted before game start - it was a good game.
Best players today - Monk, Sabonis, Murray and Lyles. Very strong performances, but game hero - Monk (despite some strange turnovers)

Monk is a stud and fastly growing to a 3rd star of Kings (which he competes with Keegan). Provided hugely boost on offense, when Fox had sloppy game. And yes, I think he should be starter already.
Sabonis - another monster tripple double 22-23-12 (we are used to that already and NBA will let is go unnoticed), but I liked mostly today his defense - very solid and guarded even Bancherro well. Maybe this happened because his wife Shashana with kids were at the game? If it so, please let her visit all home games.
Murray - good offense despite few strange bricks and a good defense as well.
Lyles - some key moments with 3s and a good defense. I like that he do not force shots and makes just a good ones.

Davion and HB had average game, they both can be better and provide better impact to the game.

Disapointments today:
Fox - very sloppy game, I think he doesnt feel well - I didnt like how he runs. Made 27% shooting and forced many bad shots and slowed game quite often. And 0 -5 from 3 was meh. Positive from him was a good defense.
Duarte - bad start and overall bad game.
Huerter - I think he has some mental issues as he plays lately quite bad. Today 0 shooting and 2 points came from free throws.

FREE THROWS - this becomes an Achilles curse for the Kings. Today only 67% from the line (21 from 31) and we are the last team in whole NBA by %. You can win games when shooting good FT or you can lose, but luckily we won today.

Magic-Heat game in Tampa canceled

TAMPA, Fla. -- Slippery court conditions forced the cancellation of Friday night's preseason finale between the Orlando Magic and Miami Heat, after arena officials said an oil-based cleaning solution was mistakenly applied.

Some fans reacted angrily, and one Heat player was nearly struck by an object thrown from an upper deck of the arena while the cancellation announcement was made about an hour before the game's scheduled tip-off. Many Magic players, and most of their equipment, were gone at that point.

"It's unfortunate," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said, "and a highly unusual circumstance."

The court conditions had been a concern for several hours, after the Magic arrived to practice at the arena -- which hosted a Tampa Bay Lightning game Thursday night -- and found the court was wet and slippery in several spots. Magic coach Stan Van Gundy said the court was unplayable in the morning, though he expressed confidence that arena officials would solve the problem.

"It would have been the longest game of my life to watch a game like this played on a court that perhaps wasn't safe," said St. Pete Times Forum CEO Tod Leiweke.

He said the floor had been loaned to another arena several months ago, and the cleaner in question was applied when the wood panels were returned.

"It was simply the wrong solution used on the floor," Leiweke said. "It had an oil content, and it shouldn't have been used."

Later, in a release issued to fans, Leiweke said the decision to not play was not unanimous. "While some felt the court was indeed playable, our sole focus was player safety and leaving nothing to risk," he wrote.

The game will not be rescheduled. Miami opens the regular season Tuesday in Boston. Orlando plays its first game at home against Washington on Thursday.

Van Gundy sent a text message to Spoelstra in the morning about the problem, and the teams were in constant contact with arena officials throughout the day, told often that conditions were improving.

"It would have been like playing on butter," Magic guard J.J. Redick said.

Magic guard Vince Carter and Heat forward LeBron James have seen this before. A game between their old clubs, the Toronto Raptors and Cleveland Cavaliers, was canceled in October 2003 -- part of James' rookie preseason tour -- after condensation formed on the court in St. John's, Newfoundland.

The arena in St. John's, though much smaller than the one in Tampa, used a similar setup, installing the court over hockey ice. The Tampa arena has hosted basketball several times before, including NCAA men's tournament games and a women's Final Four in 2008 -- plus will host men's tournament play again in March. The floor had not been used for months, arena officials said.

With the regular season starting next week, Carter thought conditions were particularly risky.

"More than anything, the season's right around the corner," Carter said Friday morning, as a few of his teammates did some shooting -- something he watched from the side because of his safety concerns.

When the Magic arrived to practice Friday morning, the court was still wet and slippery -- though it was unclear then if the moisture was from the ice below or the process of cleaning the court -- and the NBA 3-point lines hadn't been installed. Workers were on the floor with mops and brooms, and fans were brought in to help circulate air and speed up the drying process.

Some Heat players noticed there were both slippery spots and spots with too much grip when they were on the floor warming up about two hours before the scheduled tip-off. Guard Dwyane Wade, returning to practice from an injured hamstring but not scheduled to play Friday night anyway, said he thought it was too risky for the teams to take the floor.

"I felt that the floor wasn't really a good floor," Wade said. "Just walking on the floor, you could tell."

Ticketholders were told they would receive full refunds at their point of purchase, and Leiweke, who started his job at the arena three weeks ago, said the arena will also try "to make this right" to fans -- some of whom flew in from Dallas and Albany, N.Y., for the game.

Carl Leibert brought his son, Christian, to the game for his 8th birthday Friday night. Christian had been an avid Magic fan but became a Heat fan this summer when Miami signed James and Chris Bosh to join Wade. The boy, in James' No. 6 Heat jersey, was in tears after the cancellation was announced.

"We don't get to see NBA games here in the Tampa Bay area, much less two of the best teams in the NBA," Carl Leibert said. "It's more than disappointing for it to end this way."

Van Gundy tried to inject some humor into the proceedings.

"I say we should go to an outdoor court, call your own and let's go," Van Gundy said.

Orlando and Miami meet next Friday in the Heat home opener, which will be attended by Commissioner David Stern.

Purple is also considered a color of transformation and spiritual growth. When combined, black and purple create a visually striking and powerful color combination. The deep, rich hue of purple offsets the darkness of black, creating a sense of mystery and intrigue. Black serves as a grounding color, while purple adds a touch of magic and mysticism. When it comes to witch garb, black and purple can be used in a variety of ways to create a stunning and authentic witch costume. A black cloak or cape adorned with purple trim can instantly transform anyone into a witch. A black dress with purple accents, such as a purple sash or belt, can create a sophisticated and enchanting look. Accessories are another great way to incorporate black and purple into a witch costume. A wide-brimmed black hat with a purple band or a black choker with a purple gemstone pendant can add a touch of elegance and mystery. Black gloves with purple lace or a black and purple broom can complete the look. In conclusion, black and purple hues are the perfect choice for anyone looking to create a witch-inspired costume. These colors are deeply rooted in witchcraft and the occult, making them a popular choice for any witch garb. Whether used in clothing or accessories, black and purple can create a visually striking and authentic witch costume. So why not embrace the power of these colors and unleash your inner witch?.

Reviews for "Casting a fashion spell: Tips for incorporating black and purple hues into your witchy look"

1. Sarah - 2 stars

I was really disappointed with "Witch garb in black and purple hues". The fabric felt cheap and the stitching was sloppy. The fit was also way off; the sleeves were too long and the waistline didn't cinch in like it was supposed to. It ended up looking incredibly unflattering on me. Overall, I expected much better quality and fit for the price I paid.

2. Mark - 1 star

I cannot believe I wasted my money on "Witch garb in black and purple hues". The costume arrived with missing accessories and the ones that were included looked like they came from a dollar store. The sizing was completely off, and it was impossible to customize it to fit properly. The overall design was also quite generic and lacked any originality. I regret purchasing this costume and would not recommend it to anyone.

3. Jessica - 2 stars

I was really excited to receive "Witch garb in black and purple hues" as the product photos looked great. However, when it arrived, I was let down by the poor quality. The seams were already fraying, and the material felt scratchy against my skin. Additionally, the costume ran small, and it was uncomfortable to wear. The design itself was lackluster, and it didn't look as impressive as it did in the pictures. Overall, this costume was a major disappointment.
