KINGS BRING DOWN THE HEAT
Feistyfan

It may have been that the officials just couldn't see clear to let Pat Riley win this game - but more than likely it was the solid effort and great start by the Kings that did it. Of course, a great second half never hurts.

Keon Clark with 12 points, 10 Rebounds and 8 Blocked shots was certainly a determining factor. I liked Jerry Reynolds commentary that "Every time the Heat try to score inside, they are treated to a block party". Very clever. Nice job Keon filling in for Chris.

Vlade wasn't spectacular tonight, but he turned in a very admirable journeyman

performance. A few nice moves around the hoop, an outside shot and some nice passing here and there. Definitely helped tonight.

Peja showed signs of his previously accurate shooting self as well as some decent drives to the hoop. That foot must be feeling better because his quickness looks to be improving.

Doug did his usual fine job tonight. Defense, of course and some offense as well.

I think, however, the gamebreaker tonight was Mike Bibby. Looked

great, especially in the second half. Long range jumpers, great drives to the hole, penetrate and dish, pick & roll.. he was doing it all and he, more than anyone else, blew that game wide open. How great is it that when Bobby Jackson sits out, Bibby comes back and takes over that 'we need some energy' duty.

All in all the Kings were just far too talented for the Heat tonight. Without Eddie Jones and Travis Best, they just didn't have near the horsepower to defeat the deeply talented Kings.

Nice job men.. Now on the road to Milwaukee, New Jersey and Minnesota for the icy stretch of the schedule.

Well first of all ,Miami is a bad team even with House.They can not be a contender with us.We took lead at first quarter and it seemed that we would win easily and won.

What I impressed much is Keon Clark.He is a tower,he blocked rebounded and can shoot well(which I do not expect much). Peja hit 3-4 shots and last night he has some good passes too.Vlade made some bad TO and passes but he was solid.

It seemed from the beginning that Kings will get this easily.I like the game not so good but just a win.Bibby is back his old days and he showed how he is important to this team.

When it comes to Hedo,I want to see him more aggressive more courage.He could miss shots and he will but he looks like he is 40 years old and finish his work with Nba ,and made 50 million.But he does not......He had started season really well and he was injured ,JJ came RA did not play him after injury,he lost self confidence RA lost confidence on him and it goes....Last night he looked like a standard player but he is not...He is very talented ,can play (1,2,3,4 He played 4 some yesterday) but he is not good now.I believe and hope and sure he will be ok but it seems that RA must help him much...

Well Road trip will be very diffucult.NO;NJ;Minnesota .Could be 0-3 ,could be 3-0 .If Webber will be healty we can back home with 2-3 in hand but if he is not I am afraid of 0-3.
