Tonight's game was good for us in SOOOOOOO many ways:
(1) There are always ups and downs in the season -- both offensively and defensively. We were able to have a horrible night defensively, and still win. This will give the coaching staff the same motivational amunition as if we lost, but we still maintain our perfect record at home and get a win out of the deal.
(2) Mo Williams proved he's an all-star and a REAL second option for this team, regardless of whether or not anyone else in the league recognizes it. Sure, the Kings play shitty defense, but Mo was on his way to 50 and almost posted a triple double -- regardless of who the other team is, that's no easy accomplishment in the NBA.
(3) Kinsey gained even more confidence and was rewarded with more minutes after his performance against the Warriors. And depending on Brown's perception of Kinsey's performance, he earned the right to keep getting some minutes on a regular basis.
(4) Hickson is really looking like he's starting to feel comfortable out there, and tonights game just added to his rising comfort level on the floor...looks like Z's injury was a REALLY good thing for this team if Hickson keeps improving on the curve that we're seeing. We may have a consistent 4 big man rotation when Z comes back.
