My cable lied to me by telling me that the game started at 4pm...I change the channel only to find out that the game is almost half over.

It's been interesting listening to Grant and Jerry talking to Scott Pollard. The dude is still a nutcase (in a good way).

41/6/2 for Kevin now. But I still think Cisco is more untouchable

Martin is destroying out there. That Scot Pollard sit in on the commentary was the best thing I've seen so far this season.

Well, we almost pulled it out. Of course Grant and Jerry were talking about how "it was just a matter of not making shots down the stretch" despite the fact that we let the other team score 122 points.

Great game by Kevin over all though.

Spencer cannot come back soon enough. He's our best interior defender. Natt went smallball when Jason picked up his 5th foul, and it became a layup fest. Kevin ran out of gas at the end, on the second night of a back to back, he couldn't keep us in it like he did forever.

But hot damn, what a game by Kevin. Franchise record 45 bench points, 6 assists. Holy crap :o

Oh, and JT? PLEASE STAY OUT OF FOUL TROUBLE. We CAN'T rebound without you.

Kevin scored the most points off the bench in Sacramento history. Another record for Kevin.

It's a sad day when your backup PG has the most rebounds on the team...sighhhh.

And another DNP for Greene :(

Good to see Martin have a great game, though. I think it's time for him to start, Natt.

For some reason, Martin plays extremely well from the bench. Last year, when he came back from the groin injury, he came off from the bench. For the four games he was the 6th man (Even though, it is a small sample but impressive):

(29 minutes per game)

27.5 points
4 rebounds
1.5 steals

68.5% FG (13.5 shot attempts per game)
58.3% 3s (3 shot attempts per game)

90.6% Fts (8 FTs attempts)

I'm not suggesting that Martin should come from the bench (No way) but when he gets injured and comes from the bench for a couple of games. He has been EXTREMELY efficient.

Natt should let Martin come off the bench and play 40+ minutes a game. Theodoros Papaloukas was the Euroleague MVP and he came off the bench.
