When they broke huddle before the start of the 2nd half...

...did anyone else notice how quiet/shellshocked/timid the Kings were when Bibby gave some sort of "lets get it going - break" just before they took the floor for the start of the 3rd quarter? They were only down 7, but they looked like they already knew they lost. That bothered me.

This is kind of irrelevant right now - it's no secret that the Kings didn't really "bring it" tonight. I think their confidence really took a blow when Artest went down and the Spurs finished the half on a run.

I think it goes back to the way the Spurs executed their offense to perfection in the last 3 minutes of game 5. Bonzi and Ron put so much into that game and that 4th quarter comeback all for nothing. You could see on their faces and in their body language that they were disappointed and mentally worn out. They left it all on the court that night.

The last 3 minutes of game 5 were when SAR went out and Miller took over for him.

Our collapse tonight corresponded to the time that Miller was on the floor. I was glad to see Adelman pull him out quickly in his last appearance.

I don't know what to say.

yeah, I just got back from the game a bit ago(probably wont have anything resembling a voice for a couple days), but I think that they just werent patient enough on the offensive ends, the Spurs got all the lucky rolls, and just hit the big shots, end of story. I'm already looking forward to NEXT season dammit.
