Post-Game Interviews

Alex Best (King's Head Coach): "If we can play this good every game, we will not only win all of our games, but we will be the next NBA champions. This game was near perfection on our end, and I love what we can do."

Tyreke Evans (Player Of The Game): "I was on my game, all game. Hot hand. I just kept getting the ball on the outside, and just kept taking it. I've gotten better from beyond the arc, and now I think I'm a huge threat when I'm out there. The Timberwolves just didn't see that until it was too late."

Jameer Nelson (King's Role Player): "I always feel good when I can get a solid assist game. I mean, I gave up one turnover and managed to get 12 assists. I think that's a pretty good game. Almost got another double-double, but that's another story."

Shepard's Review
Kings Earn First Road Win By Dominating Timberwolves

Fresh off a nice win over the Bobcats, the Kings looked to snap their 0-5 road record with a win against the struggling Timberwolves. They got just what they ordered. A dominating performance the entire game. The only lead Minnesota had was 0-6 at the beginning of the game. Let's see what else happened:

Kings shot 58% and a phenominal 63% from beyond the arc, Timberwolves only shooting 33% from 3-point.
27 assists for the Kings, only 15 for the Timberwolves
Another blocking game for the Kings, 5 to 4
Both teams scored well off the bench, 26 Kings, 22 Timberwolves
Tyreke Evans has his best game thus far in the season. Shotting 9-12, scoring 6 rebounds, and 25 points.
OH DID WE MENTION TYREKE WENT 6-6 FROM DEEP? That's 18 of his 25 points.
James Harden had a fantastic game, shooting 6-11 and getting 15 points.
DeMarcus Cousins, solid game under center. 10 points with a block and 5 rebounds.
Jameer Nelson gets a season high 12 assists
Thompson manages to snag 2 blocks, a steal, and 5 rebounds in his defensive effort.
Wesley Johnson, who managed 27 points, shot only 12-25 and barely got anything else other than a block, steal, and 5 rebounds
Kevin Love was shut down AGAIN against the Kings, managing 7 rebounds, but only 4 points.
