Ailene Voisin: In the end, Garcia manages to light up Arco.（最後關頭，賈西亞
點亮 Arco）

PS.我知道忘掉過去不容易，但這一批新國王的確是目前我們國王迷所能擁有的了。現在
   的國王，勝利已不像過去是那麼理所當然的事。the team relied heavily on Martin,
   Miller, Quincy Douby, John Salmons, and a talented, if erratic playmaker in
   Garcia.

"It felt good all the way," Garcia said later. "I knew it was going in as soon
as I released it. Coach had told me earlier to calm down a little bit, because
I was forcing some things. But I had to stay aggressive. We all had to be more
aggressive in the second half, especially on defense. The boos in the first
half ... that gave us energy because there was no way (fans) were going to
start booing us again like last year."

那真是太棒了！當球離手我就知道它會進！教練要我冷靜一點，因為有時候我太勉強了。
但我必須保持積極性，下半場我們都必須更積極一點，特別是在防守。上半場的噓聲...
給了我們鬥志，因為（我們）絕不能讓球迷再像去年一樣噓我們。（Garcia你真Man..T.T)

Kings president John Thomas, a few hours before tipoff, conceded the Arco
sellout streak that extended for 354 games was history. And that tickets
remained available for this weekend's games against the Cleveland Cavaliers and
Minnesota Timberwolves.

連續354場主場票全賣光的紀錄在今年第一場主場成為歷史。（T.T 各位知道連續354場
代表多久嗎？一年41場將近9年的時光才能達成這樣的紀錄！代表從99年JW加入後創造出來
的華麗球風開始一路累積的這項紀錄25+41*8=353中斷了。希望本季是下一個354的開始）

"We're not going to fake it," Thomas added, glumly.（我們不想造假。T.T）

In fact, before that critical late sequence, Garcia had begun to press,
uncharacteristically forcing shots instead of directing the offense.

事實上，賈西亞從開始就打得很糟，在那顆致勝三分之前，他只投進一球，投八中一。

"You saw him make some mistakes," Martin said, "and for a young player to go
through a first half like that can hurt your confidence. But he kept his head,
and he came right back. I think you saw 'Cisco' mature tonight."

馬丁讚許賈西亞。不過馬丁自己也很傑出...這場證明暑假的延長合約沒有賭錯人。

（PS.賽後，有球迷談到這場讓他想起02年西區決賽Peja最後關鍵的出手...因為同樣都是
  比賽打得幾乎爛整場..但關鍵時刻賈西亞這場投進..也稍彌補球迷對當初麵包的缺憾。
  拿一場例行賽跟季後賽做比較....或許是有點誇張...但考慮到我們已經三連敗了
  而且珍貴的紀錄也中斷了...又是第一場主場...我們真的真的很需要這場勝利！）

"I knew it was good all the way," Garcia said again and again, grinning.

（只有當事者最能體會那種把一切挽救回來的那種成就感吧....）
