Games gettin chippy

I like how Artest was arguing for the tech against Floppo throwing a punch at Miller...even though it was more of a Manu spasm rather than a punch.

[backer55]

Miller finally with a clutch 2

[backer55]

Not too sure Miller should of been called with a flagrant, he made a play on the ball, but whatever.

+1, no doubt!

[KF10]

Kings are breaking down... *sighs*

[SacTown Kings]

Why did we run an iso for A.J. ? I am sure there was something better we could of done.

[backer55]

As good as Artest is, They are double and tripling him and he can't, probably, do it by himself. Martin? where are you?...

[SacTown Kings]

3 ball from Martin!!

[BMiller52]

Reggie we're down by like 13 with 6 minutes left, put Shelden in!!!!!!!

He's in.

[BMiller52]

-= original quote snipped =-


He's in.

Yeah he came in like 30 seconds after I posted.

[KingInExile]

Oh well...not a huge surprise. Would have liked to have kept the game in reach, but we're just not that good or consistent of a team right now...especially when guys are banged up.

[backer55]

Nothing to hang our heads about. Short handed, we got beat by a better team. I did enjoy thios game.

Once again, i think we showed that we're not far away from a really good team. We played these guys even through almost 3 quarters.

Artest, playing hurt, once again tried to carry the team. he forsed a shot or 2 later in the game but who didn't.

Martin, again, up-down depending on who guards him.

Sheldon played darn good toward the end in his few minutes. Maybe deserves a closer look.

[BMiller52]

Yeah. Atleast Shelden played pretty well in his garbage time . Too bad we lost though, but I kinda expected it considering we were pretty injured and they're a better team in the 1st place.

Went like expected... fun game, though!

Ron was playing great, but the Spurs defense slowed him significantly in the 2nd half. I love his effort and toughness.

Beno being out was key, because he really would of made a difference

Kevin was contained pretty well, not that surprising against the Spurs, but one difference in numerous other past games where he's struggled is, he was still aggressive in going to the basket. Got to the line a lot. Very good to see.

But still from a team stand-point, obviously more is needed from him, and that's not a knock on him here, just how it is (and for any top scorer), especially with Beno out.

Brad played well below-average

Anthony Johnson stepped up respectably, he has his shot going now and more time with the team

Enjoyed Shelden in his 6 minute stint... Sean Elliot: "He has to play more".

Good experience for Spencer, 20 minutes against the Spurs, liked the defense he played out on the perimeter a couple times.

Salmons other than one good defensive strip on Tony Parker, I didn't really notice him.
