SACRAMENTO TRADES

Marcus Thornton
-TO OKLAHOMA FOR-

James Harden
"Coming off the bench is what I'm good at, and I can't wait to see where I fit in with this young team. Looking forward to the opportunity to shine."
- Coach Alex Best made no comments. Here's is the lineup that Best submitted prior to the game. Seeing the decrease in numbers, it's no wonder he's moved Garcia to the bench to start the new James Harden.

Post-Game Interviews

Alex Best (King's Head Coach): "These are the games that coaches dream of. The starting 5 dominated on offense, and the bench 5 dominated on defense. Everyone knew exactly what they had to do to win, and everyone did it well. I don't have a single complaint against any of my players."

Tyreke Evans (Player Of The Game): "There's a few issues I had. Derrick Rose attempted a windmill dunk when they were down 20. Who does that? I'm glad we blocked that shot. He couldn't do anything. Then he throws up a full-court shot at the last second? Down 20? Who does that? I'm glad we dominated this game."

DeMarcus Cousins (Role Player): "I'm just glad I could contribute. When I joined the Kings I was afraid Evans would be doing everything and coach wouldn't let the rest of us play. That's not the case though and it makes this game even more fun to play."
Jon Ratski's Review
The Chicago Bulls looked like a disorganized high school team this game. Derrick Rose was trying to lift his team up, and couldn't do so. The Bulls even flashed a few pretty dunks (or at least attempted to, Derrick Rose's windmill dunk that was blocked by Dalembert from behind.) The King's just showed the rest of the NBA that those teams with one star can be beat. Teams with 5 are the ones that are hard to stop. So here's the good and bad!
- Blocks upon Blocks! Kings got 8 compared to Bulls 2. 5 of those 8 came from the King's bench!
- The Bulls couldn't hold on to the ball. Except for Noah, every player on the starting 5 turned the ball over two times each.
- Bulls didn't have a bench, only scoring 5 compared the King's bench putting up 24.
- The King's shot 70% from beyond the arc! Coach Best is doing a great job changing the King's one weakness.
- Kings continue to out-assist every team they've played so far, getting 19 compared to the Bulls 12.
- Tyreke Evans was fantastic, snagging 18 points with 7-12 and improving beyond the arc, shooting 3-4! He even got 2 steals and a block. His improvement has been quick.
- DeMarcus Cousins is slowly becoming the team's #2 guy, pulling down 8 rebounds and shooting another 80% game, going 4-5.
- James Harden, fresh out of Oklahoma, contributed well, shooting 4-10 and rebounding 6 times! When you can get the SG grabbing rebounds, you're in a good place.
- Jameer Nelson was lights out from beyond the arc, draining 2-2 and 3-5 overall. He also got 7 assists. He's been a great addition to the team.
- Just when you thought Jason Thompson would be outshadowed on the starting roster, he snagged 12 rebounds and shot 3-7. Great job from the big man at power forward.
- Samuel Dalembert was phenominal on defense, grabbing 2 steals and 3 blocks! Perfect shooting too, 2-2
- Eugene Jeter still producing, 2-7 with 4 points and 2 assists. Not bad for the young PG off the bench.
