Kevin Martin needs to be in better shape for the uptempo Rockets

"I know I have to get myself in better conditioning," Martin said. "In Sacramento, we stood around. Here we push the ball. As a scorer, you like a team that can push the ball. I need to put a little extra effort into the treadmill."

"There's going to be an adjustment."

Looks like Kevin

felt the need to fire off a little steam back at Paul Westphal.

It always rubs me the wrong way

when a player says he loved his time with a team and then starts bad mouthing them the moment he has a different jersey on. Mabye he is looking for an excuse for stinking it up in Houston

You're saying

We don’t stand around? Because if that’s what you’re saying, you must be listening to the games on the radio and not watching.

well, martin was standing around when he came back

I actually wish the kings were just standing around sometimes, because the spacing would be better.

Maybe it's also true.

Since when is telling the truth such a terrible thing?

No mistakes in the tango, Donna. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....

I'm not sure Donald Sterling is a human being. He had to have been manufactured by someone, possibly David Stern, so that one team could solely just make profit for the NBA while doing nothing good for themselves. -- Aykis 16

Since

the guy who tells the truth is mentally weak. And a ball hog. And can’t shoot. Did I mention soft?

I think Kev was far too kind simply saying that “we stood around” instead of saying “we plain sucked.A lot.”

Yep

"And I never said I don’t like KMart. I just don’t think the duo is good for the team. They are essentially two of the same player"

I heard this on the radio today in Houston

I was going to post on this but I’m glad someone already has. I realize that Kevin was injured and out for awhile but does anybody think that there may be a lack of conditioning on this Kings’ squad?

I really cannot say one way or another, but the Rockets don’t play THAT much of an up-tempo style for him to have made the statements that he did.
