Posted in Retribution was in the cards for the Milwaukee Bucks as they were looking to come back from an embarrassing 30-point loss to the Atlanta Bucks on Friday; fortunately for them, their opponent for their game on Saturday was the Sacramento Kings.

Cavaliers End Road Trip On A Good Note Beat Jazz 102-97
Coming into Saturday night in Utah vs the Jazz, the Cavs had visions of a 3-1 west coast trip, and following their 102-97 victory, the team got what they wanted. After falling to the Lakers in the first game of the trip last Monday, the team was able to reel off wins vs the Trail [...]
Mavericks Shoot 55%, Embarrass Pistons At The Palace 112-91
On any given night, a team worth its salt – after a 34-point loss to the Milwaukee Bucks – would want to take out its frustrations on their next opponent. That was exactly the case with the Dallas Mavericks, who got blasted by the Milwaukee Bucks by 34 on Wednesday night; they exacted some retribution [...]
Pacers Take Advantage Of Yao Absence, Hold Off Rockets 107-102
On most nights, the Houston Rockets match up well against most opponents, due to their decided height advantage; however, in their game on Friday night against the Indiana Pacers, the advantage did not serve them very well as center Yao Ming played only 17 minutes before leaving the game with a sore knee.

Their opponent in Thursday’s game, the Washington Wizards, would prove to be no different as seven Lakers scored in double-figures as they easily disposed of [...]
Green Hits Buzzer-Beater, Thunder Nip Warriors 122-121
The Oklahoma City Thunder has, for the most part, had very little to celebrate about their season thus far despite their young nucleus of a team. Fortunately for them, their game on Wednesday was against an opponent who isn’t faring much better than them – the Golden State Warriors. In what was arguably the best [...]
Jamison Pours In 33, Wizards Hold Off Kings 110-107
One would think that after their loss to the Milwaukee Bucks last Friday, they would learn not to dig themselves into a hole only to score points when the issue was well in hand. In their game against the Washington Wizards, history repeated itself as the Kings found themselves 19 points down in the fourth [...]
Undermanned Nuggets Shoot 56%, Rout Kings 118-99
Whether the thin air in Colorado had anything to do with the Sacramento Kings’ performance Tuesday night in their game against the Denver Nuggets would be speculative, but nonetheless, the Nuggets put together a strong second and third quarter span as they easily defeated Sacramento 118-99 at Pepsi Center. Denver started slowly at first as [...]
