Reke Havoc and our Kings are going to stick it to the warriors tonight at the LOUDEST ARENA IN THE NBA. GO KINGS! And lets sell it out 17,317. Die Hard Since 1988.
Lets ride some of that momentum into tonights game! I would love to se Evens step up in two consecutive games. This is a team we can definitely take it to. Play with that same defensive toughness and we'll start a streak here!
The Kings are now riding into this game with confidence, as just about no one expected the Kings to come in to Utah without K-Mart and Garcia (about 45 points worth) and pull out a win, even leading by 20 at one point.
They need to keep the momentum going and let Sac-town know that the Kings mean business, and will do much better than expected this year. If we play good at home, the fans will return. More fans means more wins, and everybody wants wins.
The reason for the Kings success is evident in Udrih. As much as I love Tyreke (truly a beast), he is not a true point guard and has a hard time finding his open teammates. Udrih is a point guard, and found many open teammates and ran the game well. This gave Evans an opportunity to score as he naturally does, and the game just flowed.
What I really liked was the addition of Ime Udoka. Coming from the Spurs (coached under the infamous Greg "Pop" Popovich), Udoka has been coached well and understands his role. He came in, made a couple shots, got 3 steals, made a block, and had many rebounds and key defensive stops. Udoka got us the win yesterday, as he was the key to our giant third quarter run.
This will be a great opportunity for JT to work on back to the basket stuff in the low block.
Tyreke>>Curry…everybody did well…
Next rookie, Harden, on Tuesday….interior defense key, but I think they can win
tyreke evans is off the charts. if he could just learn how to nail a jumpshot…
If they keep playing with this much intensity and this much heart, the Kings are sure to get a W.
HOW COME NOBODY GIVES OMRI ENOUGH CREDIT? HE IS A GREAT PLAYER WITH A LOT OF HEART. WE LOVE HIM HERE IN NYC!
