The Los Angeles Lakers and New Orleans Hornets. Two teams that while obviously are winning franchises, hardly resemble each other. The Lakers have Kobe Bryant and a decent supporting cast; however, at the point, they’re iffy at best. The Hornets, on the other hand, have one of the better point guards in the National Basketball [...]

Kings End Five-Game Losing Skid, Hold Off Suns 113-108
The Sacramento Kings, like a lot of young teams, are going through growing pains. By growing pains, along with learning to develop chemistry, there are the occasional bouts of immaturity. A bout of immaturity took place after the Kings’ loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder Saturday night when DeMarcus Cousins got into an altercation with Donte Greene. [...]
Spurs Shoot 57 Percent, Overwhelm Kings 113-100

The problem they had to face was they only had one day’s rest prior to their game Friday night against the Sacramento Kings. As it would turn out, the one day of rest was [...]
Anthony Returns, Nuggets Impale Kings 104-86
The good news is that the Sacramento Kings came to Denver to face the Nuggets, fresh off a 100-98 win over the Memphis Grizzlies on Wednesday. The bad news? The Nuggets would get Carmelo Anthony back, returning after a two-week absence due to a death in his immediate family. As it would turn out, Anthony [...]
Granger Helps Pacers Win Eighth Straight At Conseco, Beat Kings 102-95
The Sacramento Kings and Indiana Pacers have at least one thing in common: both are not going to the playoffs. But one thing Sacramento has that Indiana cannot lay claim to is that they have a decent core of youth players. That is not to say that the Pacers’ roster is crap. Far from it; [...]
