I love seeing Bibby and Peja on the bench! I am also very proud of how the guys came back after that horrible Detroit debacle. Keep it up guys.

BTW when Z comes back in, Tag needs to as well. Once again showing why Tag should get some more time.

2 questions:

Is this more "us playing well" or "them suck" ?

How do You approach 2nd half ?

A team can not GIVE you 73 points you have to shoot the ball well, and of course GET the good shots. Kings are paly near perfect Kings ball, lots of passes, moving well with out the ball, and rebounding well which creates fast breaks and over all good offense. And yes the Cavs are clearly tired and slugish.

Key to the second half...
1. take nothing for granted. 73 points will NOT win the game, you have to paly 2 more quarters.
2. Stick with the bench, they are winning, they need PT, let em have it. Heck I might even go real deep and paly Martin and Daniels telling each of them that it is up to THEM how long they stay in.
3. Sit back and enjoy... pull the reserves one at a time when/if they show signs of getting tired or getting beat by their man.
4. Keep going back to the zone... it works and the guys need the practice with it.

I am not going to get excited yet, but I sure hope our bench can start playing this well for the rest of the season!

Our bench has always had this in them. RA just doesn't usually give the guys enough consecutive minutes to get in a good rhythm. You should be excited that RA left them in and they kept it going all the way till halftime. Our starters need rest and their getting it while we get a W (knock on wood)!

Cleveland has been on a slide as of late, not to mention they had a hard OT loss last night. I hope we don't let them back in the game (which seems to be a theme this year.)

I would like to see 130+ points :)

We didn't play much defense in the 1st qtr but the 2nd was some of the better defense I have seen from the Kings in a long time.

You know - I can not stand the guy - but tonight he is saying such ridicolous things that make no sense on a totally new level. He is on "something new" tonight.

one of the biggest keys when playing the Cavs is getting Z in foul trouble...its gives you some breathing room and you only have to deal with Lebron not that thats easy...but ya know what i mean...Gooden is very inconsistent...ya never know if he is gonna come to play or be a no call no show...last night Gooden was ballin...thus far in this game...ehh not so much...

LETS PLEASE PLEASE KEEP THIS GOING KINGS!!! GO KINGS GO!! GO BENCH GO!!

I wouldn't be surprised if the Cleveland Cavaliers make a run in the 2nd half, but I'm sure the Kings can keep a solid lead on them for the most part.

I agree. No Z for Cavs really hurt them. Plus, Corliss was CENTER. So that could have done some damage for Kings.

But good thing Z was in foul trouble! :D
