Actually, we let them get ahead like that so we can practice more on comeback wins! eh?

Reggie should let Shelden play a little more, Miller isn't doing too well adn neither is Salmons IMO.

Artest is really hurting out there. The guy is trying but, no doubt, you can see the he is playing with lots of pain!

I know! "How do you like me now" Argh...I hate that quote the most...Yeah, I dont hate country music but it is getting annoying though...

Yeah, they are. At this point, I think they are getting desperate due to the low ticket sales and/or they are losing ticket holders as well...

They need to to cut down the turnovers....Other then that, we are fine...I expect the Wizards will come out strong...Hopefully, we could hold on...

Ok. No meltdowns...

Yeah, right.

Moore didn't need to take it that far but man, was he getting some BS calls! On just about every rebound he was getting pushed in the back. Just rediculous no calls.

Zzz You're eirher a moron that likes to irritate people or plain stupid. Read this; i could care less what you think and have already told you as much.

Moore lost his head, bad call or not, and needs to put that fake king kong attitude of his away cause those type of Dumb **** moves can and did cost the TEAM!

Now, PISS OFF!

Please do not attempt to avoid the language filter.

No need to overreact like this...and attempting to avoid the language filter is not allowed.

Quite frankly this is a case where SacKingZZZ is right. Mikki was getting hit with a lot of BS calls while Jamison, Haywood and Blatche were being allowed to push him around underneath without getting called. And I already stated early in the game thread that the first tech he got was BS. After he got hit with his foul (one that he fully deserved) he waved his hands at the ref in kind of a "push away" motion and had a look of disgust on his face...he didn't say anything, didn't make any vulgar, offensive or threatening motions, he just indicated an attitude of "Oh, puh-lease!"...and he get's T-ed up for it? If the refs are going to give people techs for junk like that, then Kobe should have been ejected from every game this season for displaying similar gestures of disgust.

I wholeheartedly agree that he earned the second tech and ejection. You can't go off on the officials like that. But frankly it should never have gotten that far since the first tech was absolutely petty and bogus.

I also disagree that him getting tossed cost the Kings the game. He's never proven to be THAT important to the team this year. The Kings lost because they started getting selfish with the ball and started making dumb mistakes as a team.

Kie, Ok, i'll try and refrase if there's a next time.

I didn't say that WAS the reason we LOST. It CAN and DID cost the TEAM, and if you don't think that it may have been a turning point, a part in our loss, well, then we disagree.

Same goes with Miller. Nobody gets more abused by lack of calls than he does but when he goes off, doesn't hustle back or gets a TK, it can and does hurt the team! If it had been Miller getting kicked out over a call i'd of said the exact same thing.

I've always been a fan of Miller and Moore's play has improved x5 these past few weeks but pro's can't let no calls or a bad call be a excuse to lose their professionalism at the expence of the TEAM!

Kevin's definitely improved his passing ability over the last year. But the next step with that is it becoming a consistency, and expanding on that area of the game, in working on his play-making in the off-season.

KF10 wrote:Interesting. Martin attempted 11 shots only...

Not exactly, because he made 7 trips to the line for 12-14 FTs. So he drew a lot of fouls off shot attempts, as of course he does a good deal of the time.

SadKingsFan · Post #59 » by **SadKingsFan** » Sun Mar 30, 2008 8:26 am

I hate you Ballings, i was just going to make that point about martins shot attempts lol. I didnt get to see this debacle but i do love how KIE is clearly feeling the same way i am. This game meant nothing and its good to joke a little bit.

Anyway, im perfectly fine with kevin martin being a lot more agressive. At times we (as kings fans) have killed him for being passive or soft. And i do understand what some of you are saying though, Martin obviously needs to learn how to balance the two.

Post #60 » by **pillwenney** » Sun Mar 30, 2008 8:33 am

I think the next step is the playmaking for Kevin. He's a decent passer now, but he still has a little ways to go. If he can be aggressive, thus drawing the D's attention, and then use that to make plays for others (which, like others have said, he has gotten better and better at) he should be right where he needs to be there.

I do wonder though....I mean like....at some point you'd think that defenders would be like "okay, I have to play off of him here to not get another petty blocking call" or "I just can not bite on his pump fakes". If defenders do ever generally figure that out, I'll be interested in seeing how Kevin adjusts.
