GSW miss; Miller rebound.

Kings call time out.

 

[VF21]

Just a point of clarification. The Warriors fans aren't THAT loud; it's just that the Kings fans are always quiet when the Kings have the ball as we don't have a "Let's go, Kings" chant. I think it's because the number of syllables isn't right. You need four and "let's go, Kings" is only three...

Lots of standing around by everyone not named Artest, who drives inside against two GSW. Gets the bucket and draws the foul from Jackson. 5PF.

89-88 GSW

Artest to shoot the bonus after the break.

On virtually EVERY possession, Martin is fading to the weak corner as soon as the Kings cross mid-court. Then he stands there, like a kid who has been sent to his room. Not sure why, but it sure looks as though that's what he's been told to do for some strange reason.

 

[VF21]

I sure wish Artest would have driven inside instead of settling for the jumper. GSW has Davis, Harrington and Jackson with 5 fouls each... I think that may be what Reggie points out during the break.
