Ok Carl gets game MVP

so he can stay for another game
anytime Hawes gets double digit boards I will say he did ok no matter what he did with the rest of his game
with 21 games to go the Kings can still have a winning season
with 21 games to go Tyreke is a +16 +22 and -3 in his quest for the 20 5 and 5 of pts ast and RBs
I’ll take an ugly win over a pretty loss anyday

I saw it

K-mart went to give him props for the win, and Cisco kinda ignored him and was speaking with the other Kings about the win. Who knows though, he might have been mad still about getting kicked in the leg by K-mart earlier in the game.

by kingsfan300 on Mar 4, 2010 12:16 PM PST up reply actions  

I missed it.

That’s pretty interesting. I wonder if that reflects on Cisco’s feelings or whether it was more a reflection of the team about Kevin.

Cisco was mad at someone for leaving Brooks open in the last play

That’s why he didn’t even turn around. He was ready to let whoever let Brooks open know that doing that was unaceptable. Kevin just happened to be there ready to shake hands with him.

It might've actually being Tyreke

because right after he gave Kevin a hug, he went to Tyreke to talk to him about something and he wasn’t happy. That’s just Cisco’s intensity.

It's hard to say this

But obviously Kobe is one of the best to ever play the game. Not THE best, but he’s certainly up there. And he gets honored on the 1st team All-Defensive because of who he is, not his defensive talents. When he wants to, he can certainly be one of the best defenders in the league, but the bottom line is that Kobe doesn’t “turn it on” during most plays, whereas someone like Battier is giving it his all 100% of the time. You can argue that the reason Kobe doesn’t turn it on defensively is because he has such an offensive responsibility, and that wouldn’t be inaccurate. But that doesn’t mean he deserves to be 1st Team All-Defensive because he CAN be a great defender. Those who make that team should be the best defenders night in and night out.

They were smart to put Battier on Tyreke as Battier is one of the best defenders in the NBA and I think Tyreke was showing he is still a rookie by trying to go into triple coverage all night and throwing up those crazy rainbow shots he takes. I hope he improves his shooting stroke.

by ElRonToro on Mar 3, 2010 8:41 PM PST up reply actions  

Why feel bad?

They got younger with Ariza, Artest wasn’t going to stick around forever anyways, A healthy Yao gives them the best Center in the league (at least imo) playing along side Scola. Brooks is young and really good and Martin is a good fit along side a guy like Brooks. Then add the very solid bench.

Trust me, there’s teams in worse positions out there. They will be a playoff team again next year.

He’s been the most consistent scoring rookie in all the league, and gets most of his shots at the rim. He’s got a couple 30 points game left in him, and I’m shocked he hasn’t had a triple double yet, although he’s been close several times.

How do you win a game on the road when you shoot .320 and get blocked 9 times?

Didn’t watch it, but from the box score it looks like defense, rebounding, free throws, and taking care of the ball were the reasons they won tonight.

Also, Carl Landry in a top hat.

Road wins against non sub .500 teams FTW!

francisco garcia i owe you an apology

forgot how effective a player you can be. able to play both guard spots defensively, fundamentally sound, can knock down the jumper and a mentally tough leader. I really think a 4 guard rotation of reke, beno, cisco and (decent pg able to give 10-15 minutes of spot duty and make an open 3 tbnl) would be effective next year.

houston fans are expecting kevin to be something he’s not. a wise man once said that “you need someone you can throw the ball to” or something like that. he’s not that and never will be. but if yao comes back healthy he’ll be a good complimentary option.

and as far as carl landry goes….. ONIONS!!!

by lchristmas on Mar 3, 2010 10:32 PM PST via mobile reply actions  

Nice win for you guys, especially on a BTB on the road.

Landry was the difference, but I thought neither team played all that well. Another Dreamshake writer was there and we just couldn’t get over how generally awful the Rockets looked. Credit to the Kings D, and offensive rebounding, but I called it a rock fight, and it was.

I think the Battier – Evans matchup was interesting, with Evans perhaps learning something about defense in the NBA. He’ll have a different approach next time, I imagine. The guy is amazingly fast for his size, it’s incredible. If he can develop a jumper, and even more, a post game, wow.

Neither Martin nor Brooks did much, and I thought they would. Scola, and Andersen, who hardly played in the 2nd half, did well, and I thought they wouldn’t. Just an odd, unpleasant, game to watch.

Anyway, grats to the Kings, but this one leaves a bad taste for me.

PS – Your game shirts are amazing.

Significant gravitas shortfall expected in 2010.

The Dreamshake

by Xiane on Mar 3, 2010 10:55 PM PST reply actions  

That was a tough one to watch, even as we were leading.

Just long, painful stretches of really poor basketball. A very solid point about Tyreke learning what it’s like to deal with a team that has guys that can really defend. Battier is still no joke, and watching him play defense is like watching a chess master. He just knows where you’re going to be, and what you’re going to be doing when you get there.

I don’t suppose Tyreke will have an easier time getting to the rim once Yao is back…

Rocks are free, and slingshots easily stolen.

by andy sims on Mar 3, 2010 11:06 PM PST up reply actions  

I dunno, Tyreke seems like he can get to the rim on anyone.

Although an ambush was waiting on several occasions. Once he really gets a drive-and-kick down, though…

I was noticing tonight that Sacrament can field a really big team. It looks like all that’s needed is maybe a defensive shot blocking center and maybe a change of pace PG. And time. It’s a young team, you can see that by how uneven their possessions are. Of course the Rockets didn’t look much more composed tonight.

Significant gravitas shortfall expected in 2010.

Battier has been known to study for hours & hours

on his next defensive assignment. He really takes pride in it. IMO he has been better for the Rockets than Rudy Gay would have been. He is a true defensive competitor.

Brooks struggled

Because Evans is a MUCH better defender than people give him credit for. His size is such an unfair advantage over other PG’s
