-----------------------------------------
Something that has already happened too many times IMHO is the Kings will have what should be the final shot of the quarter and then, with mere seconds left, the opposition gets the ball and makes a buzzer beater. I noticed this in both the Clippers and Warriors game.
52-46 Denver at the end of the first half.

52-46 Denver at the end of the first half.
First half impressions:
The Kings aren't really taking this game as seriously as they could/should. Denver was VERY aggressive at the beginning of the game.
Kings shooting only 36% while Denver is shooting 47%.
I would expect to see a little more focus in the second half.
Some bright spots: SAR passes very well out of the post; Skinner looks very good.
Kings have to focus on rebounds and moving without the ball.
