Not open for further replies.
Nice flop by Devin Harris. Miller pushed him but he sold it pretty well. This guy is never going to get the calls if he keeps flopping when the wind blows...either that or he's going to suffer whiplash.
 
Mavs ball.

Harris for two.

33-28 KINGS

Kings ball. Bad pass by Artest is stolen by Harris, who misses a run-away lay-up.

Ah, crap.

MIller was fouled by Fazekas, no call. He shoves Devon Harris in frustration and is called for the foul. He and Harris are talking, no one on the Kings bench gets up. Howard RUNS across the court, comes up behind Miller and cheap shots him. Howard is ejected from the game...

Again, the Kings players did not leave the bench. A tribute to how well the coaches reacted right away.

They're still talking on the court...
 
It was NOT a flop, BTW. Harris was shoved hard by Miller in frustation for not getting the call on the obvious foul by Fazekas.

Reminder: This is the PBP, not the game discussion thread.

First half impressions:

In general, this team is a TEAM again. They're focused, and they're working on getting in synch with each other. I'm very impressed with Bibby's hustle and Miller's presence in the paint.

Break time - I'll be back for the third quarter. They're showing film of the first-ever "Kevin Martin Kings basketball camp."

Artest was there one day, Bobby Jackson was there another day. Mostly younger kids, this camp looks as though it could really grow and be something special... I can think of a couple of little princesses who may, in a couple of years, have Kevin Martin basketball camp in their futures!!!

:D
