Baby, baby, it's a wild world — on The NOR CAL Report!
The Sharks still play swimmingly — but wasn't it Captain Hook's alligator that heard "tick, tick, tick?"
The Raiders ride a veteran game manager and a staunch D to a major victory;
The 49ers are outclassed by the organization's biggest ghost;
The Warriors wish their coach well, even as they beat Portland with the pity vote. But where is this franchise going, and under whom?
The Kings plummet to Earth, as inexperience and experience meet them at each hotel. Is the pendulum done swinging already?
It's cold weather time, and they're turning nasty out there. And we've got it all — on The NOR CAL Report!
UP NEXT:
The NBA squads fight to stay atop the seesaw, while the 49ers and Raiders try to remember which teams they're really supposed to be. The Sharks continue to make it happen on the ice, while Jess goes beach hunting and Lex takes center stage.

All the latest info, anecdotes and opinions from the Report's own Jess Zitrin.
A's fans, looking for a second Jack Cust who played the infield? Good news: there is (maybe) as the green and gold hope to strike again with aging prospect Dallas McPherson. The Giants tried him and found him one-dimensional; of course, the same could be said of Cust. And the Giants haven't given up on former A's hand and positionless wonder Jesus Guzman...
Several sources saying this will be a buzzard's market come January in MLB — and that doesn't mean fresh meat. Although both the locals, to some degree, have the wiggle room for meaningful free agent conversations, if the GMs exercise their habit of wait-and-see, it could be a long winter for the Bay squads...
To the Raiders, the short week could be an advantage. But somehow it never feels like one...
And the 49ers' reporters keep wondering why the spread doesn't rain down. Weigh in by posting a comment; this is their question of the week...
Look, I didn't mean to sound callous in the show regarding Coach Nelson's health. It's certainly interesting that if the Warriors win in Texas with Nelson in California, he still inches toward Lenny Wilkins and that wins record. Nelson himself can't possibly be happy about how that looks, or feels...
Spencer Hawes, along with Jason Thompson, has shown there's more to Sacramento than Kevin Martin. Why did the Monarchs suddenly fold? The Maloofs say they want to focus on Sac's men's town. On the other hand, what does every other team in the Kings' position do? Trade Martin...
