Not to mention that he didn't complain to the refs for 2 minutes after the play about how it should have been an And 1. Oh and he didn't yell at his teammates either 
On a side note...
Do all y'all know about this lil nugget (no pun intended) of a website?
Well for those who don't...

"I'm acting like George, why don't you treat me like George," said Westphal, who remained in that same position nearly a minute after the first half ended.
way to go kings!
I missed the match **** I have really bad luck with this clutch games, I only end up seeing the ones we lose .
I voted Brockman and Hawes. Brockman is a beast, as long as he plays the way he does I think it's disrespectful not picking him in any poll. I hope he starts to get the minutes he got yesterday.
And bout Spencer... I still think he can improve a lot, as long as his problem is his attitude, not his skills. But who knows...
JT is still too young, and he'll be very solid off the bench, at least. But I don't see him as a starter.

So we win all the games that you fail to see. Hmmmmm! Are you bribeable?
Hmm well unless Petrie retires, I'd say Hawes will be the only starter in 3 years. He is a Petrie player and as others have said he is playing one of the hardest positions to fill. If he puts it all together he could be a damn good center. I wish he could rebound tho.... We need an impact player at center or pf....Can Thompson be that guy? He puts up really solid numbers but Im not sure he can will be an impact type guy.
I could not agree more. I voted Brockman and Hawes. I have been calling for Brockman to get the start for some time (I dont think the Kings staff reads this stuff, so I have to assume PW had a stroke of genius on his own...) and I am glad that John did not disappoint! He is clearly our best defender in the post. He makes his presence felt even though he is shorter than most power forwards in the NBA. He has a "WORM" like nose for the ball and a all out, don't give a crap about his body, all out effort toward rebounding.
He his truly a "MONSTER" the way he sells out on every rebound. He out hustles, out muscles, and out plays the people around him for a rebound. He isn't concerned about his offense, the way he looks style wise, or the manor in which he is portrayed as a "Role Player". He just goes in and does his job. And he does it well. Against all odds and despite his physical limitations he excels.
We NEED a player like Brock to do the dirty work. The Kings have always had a hard nosed blue collar player like Brockman to do the dirty work. For a while it was Michael "The Animal" Smith, then it was Scott Pollard. The Kings fans LOVE the blue collar worker mentality of players like John Brockman. It is a reflection of the blue collar identity of the fans. There is nothing better to root for than for an undersized underdog who excels through hard work and determination. I am glad that Brock got the start. I think PW is on to something by starting Brockman who is Hawes's friend. It seems like Brockman plays harder and Hawes plays harder when John starts. The way the Brockness Monster has played recently, the Kings might not need another Big free agent. Petrie is watching this situation closely I am sure. Great JOB by Brockman!!!

NBA players could use less ink, less guns, less thugs, less partying all night before games, less me first attitudes, less players who act as if they have arrived before they even begin their journey, less enablers who treat these young men like commodities instead of young males who need guidance, and less marketing that centers on the Stars and not the Teams.
Sometimes LESS is MORE!
