Rockets @ Kings Game Thread

I am very happy with the games from Artest, Martin, Udrih, Salmons and Hawes. Udrih taking it to Yao late in the fourth was key which allowed for Yao's sixth foul of the game and eventually his ejection.

Other than Yao, T-Mac and Bonzi, no one else really showed up for the Rockets.

Can't wait to read what Adelman has to say on tonight's game and his return to Sacramento.
 
Spencer Hawes with a great game going after the boards, and loose balls in general, tonight. Also had those two blocks. Would like to see him finish hard around the basket and at least draw some contact when he got those offensive boards though...he tried to finesse them in, and the results weren't good. Overall, quite a promising game from the rookie.
 
I thought Artest set the tone early for the Kings with his aggressiveness which turned into a complete team effort at the end. Beno was a dynamic floor general and I have to honestly say without him at the point we might very well have lost this game (and several others so far). Beno had 15 pts, 5 assists, and 5 rebounds - SOLID! Finally, they did listen to Coach Theus on taking it strong to the hole at the end as Beno did to foul out Yao. GO KINGS!!

Hey,

Since I am on the college now I do not follow NBA and the Kings as much as I want,but I just realize that there were "just" about 15,000 people on our last game...So the arena wasn't sold out,when did the strake come to the end?

It has been that way all year, Peja, from the very 1st game.
 
Part Kings immaturity, part overconfidence by the good teams, part Kings home crowd effect.

I think part of it is style.

Rockets and Spurs are not super-athletic. We can hustle after these kinds of teams with Martin, Garcia, Beno, Artest, etc. The really athletic ones cause us fits (Warriors, Suns, etc).

JMHO.
