I have only one question after this game. Is Casspi the rookie better than Peja when he was a rook or Hedo when he first came into NBA? Obviously, all three have their own unique talents. But I think Omri has more, maybe a lot more diversity to his game and lots more intensity - seemingly every second he's on the court.
Way to go Kings!!! - especially Kev, Beno, Hawes, Casspi...

thank you. you're right each game we fall in a hole until the bench comes in. May and Mason should not be starting. I can understand putting a new crew on the floor but not 3 new starters and 3 old starters sitting on the bench giving more production. Casspi is coming along. He may end up being the steal of this draft.
One of the best games i've seen Hawes play.
Casspi is a friggan beast. All rookie first team, he ready to start next game.
Kevin you were the leader tonight, you took this team on your shoulders and carryed us the whole way.
Beno you played AMAZING.
Props to Tyreke for trying to play on that ankle. I loved how he was looking for his teamates every time down the court. Played good defense to.
and finally.. ive hated on you since the start Westphal but you showed why you are our head coach tonight. beautiful rotations, timeouts, and critical plays. Congrats on your first win Coach.
LOVE THIS TEAM!!

i think that westphal should try starting beno at pg and bringing evans off the bench. if hawes can come off the bench and come up big so can evans... casspi has no problem doing it either. we should at least try it out. martin shouldnt play 52 minutes.... with garcia hurt we really dont have a back up sg.... greene and casspi arent sg's... the are sf's period...
evans might be better off taking it slow and coming off the bench at pg and sg instead of starting. with his ankle being sprained, maybe he should take it slow. he didnt play the entire 4th or ot... and we somehow won.... the world didnt come to an end with evans on the bench... if thabeet and flynn can come off the bench so can evans.
i dont know if it was because of the ankle but he wasnt helping us out there trying to run the offense... let beno and sergio show us that evans should be the starting pg.
Somebody must have given Hawes the message, because he played with passion and determination on the offensive and defensive ends of the court. GREAT game by Hawes! Casspi had a real good stint as well. Beno came in and filled in very nicely for 'Reke, who was obviously slowed by that ankle. All around a very satisfying victory! That's one down and 36 to go to make my prediction of 37 wins !!
Another thing was the coaching of Paul Westphal. Fantastic job coaching the game. Very professional. Called the time outs right when they needed them. The difference between this year and last is we would have lost this game last year due to poor coaching and morale. The team has a good chemistry starting to come together. Hawes and Casspi both pushing for a starting spot. Noche had a fine game. Everyone contributed to this victory! We have 48 hours to celebrate and then it's off to the next game! Nothing like home cookin to get everything just right!! GO KINGS !!

I'm starting to get sad that I cant watch Kings games down here in SoCal.
Checked the boxscore...Omri is turning into a beast, we need to come up with a badass nickname for him. Tyreke is a bust....
....Just kidding.
But to those that watched: did Reke seem to be a bit hobbled out there? I hope he's better by wednesday. I await a dominant game from him with bated breath.
Good to see Hawes is steppin up. This happened last season too..I swear he reads these boards and only plays to impress us here at Kingsfans
JT got steamrolled. We need to play the Warriors to get his confidence back up.
