I almost forgot to watch the game.
Kings won 100-95! It was a fun game to watch for several reasons:
- Miller (S) injured his arm, so
- Divac (S) scored his first 3-pointer this season
- Yao Ming (H) fouled out (kind of lucky, some calls were questionable, like Steve’s block called as goaltending),
- Francis (H) ‘accidentally’ elbowed a referee on the face (while the whistle was on the referee’s mouth too!), and all throughout the second half you can see the looks of disbelief on his face.
Add to that, the not so rare but just as spectacular delivery of Bibby’s assists and Peja’s perimeter shots! Totally awesome game! Though it felt sorta scary, coz they’re still fumbling on defense… very dangerous. It could cost them their traipse to finals yet again. Divac may have saved this game in the 4th quarter, but we’ll see if this potential hall-of-famer can do more, or if Miller gets to his feet in the next game…
… which simply cannot be missed. Lakers vs Kings. Unlike last year, the Kings are my bet this time. I know the Lakers are good, but the Kings lead in games won so far this season!! Go Kings! (Sorry Anthony, I know you’re rooting for L.A.)
