Ron Artest's second game as a King at the ACC. I just got home so couldn't make a full preview but this is expected to be a good game. Look for Bibby to torch us as usual but I have a feeling the Raps will pull this one off.. Enjoy it.
Well we won, nice game, it was a battle to the end, I thought we had it earlier, but we let them get back. Mo, James, and Charlie all played very well offensively, we also got destroyed on the glass.
I was sure that we would lose it if it went into overtime. Nice win. Jalen Rose basically redeemed his crappy play throughout that game with that final shot.
wow...it looks like even truwarier can't help the kings make the playoffs nice win by toronto though...especially they played OT mostly without Bosh and were behind early in the OT what's wrong with the kings? no defence? the curse of rahim? or...?
Nice game, jalen with the winner. The rooks played well tonight, and bibby certainly torched us, and almost got the kings the win with his clutch shots.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting hohoyoyoyo:</div><div class="quote_post">wow...it looks like even truwarier can't help the kings make the playoffs</div> You gotta remember that Artest's basically been off for a year, with a little playing time in between. He's bound to be a little out of shape in the first few games.
he did play well vs toronto though...oh well...but again, everybody plays well vs toronto still man...thought their defence would improve after artest joined kings, but i guess not...
What the hell was with the play calling (or lack of it) durring key posessions at the end of regulation and then in overtime. It's completely non-existant -the game winning shot looked like a broken play.
Nice win for the Raptors, especially the clutch shot by Jalen, I thought he was going for the three. Wow. We let them back in it but we didn't let them have it, good composure
Good win, I thought we had the game when we were up 11, then I thought we lost after Bosh was ejected and we were down 6, and again when Bibby made that jumper and then we won. Two things I still don't understand: WHY did Mitchell put Rose on Artest during crunch time and all of overtime and have our best defensive player, MoPete on Martin who is absolutely no threat to score whatsoever? Also, why in the world is Bonner in the game when Sacramento had the ball with almost no time left, with no chance for us to get the ball back?
I hate this. Beat the damn raptors for christs sake. Even though i think the Raptors are underrated...this was a game the Kings should win. Tru Wariers D is put to use best against teams who have an individual perimeter player to focus on.

He had 5, 21, 20 the 3 games before that.
How about Pape Sow's job defending Artest? I was surprised that he was quick enough to stay in front of him.
Yo what was up with Bosh? why did he get so pissed for? if it was a really bad call maybe i could understand it, but he actually did commit the foul. I think this season is really messing with him, he obviously has some issues going on.

Very active quick feet on defense.

Pape Sow seems like a young and very raw Ben Wallace. Gotta love his hustle plays though.

I think it was a one-time incident where he felt there was a bad call and it was a tight game and he had 5 fouls. lol Mike James was happy to don the "mad raptor" title onto Bosh.
