Bulls Shoot Scorching 61 Percent, Trample Kings 132-92
The Chicago Bulls, despite their best record in a decade, went into Monday night’s game against the Sacramento Kings at the United Center not taking taking the team in purple-and black for granted. That goes back to December 21, 2009 when the Kings rallied from 35 points down to beat the Bulls 102-98. They obviously [...]
Cousins Sparks Late 19-2 Run, Kings Overtake Suns 94-89
Sunday night’s game between the Sacramento Kings and the visiting Phoenix Suns at Arco Arena pitted two teams at the crossroads – Phoenix making a trade that would hopefully give them the impetus to sneak into the NBA playoffs while Sacramento is a team that is going through growing pains with a revamped roster.

Durant, Westbrook Help Thunder Throttle Kings 113-107
The Oklahoma City Thunder, up until Tuesday night’s game against the Sacramento Kings, had a perfect 2-0 record during their home stand at the Ford Center, defeating Minnesota and Toronto handily.

Just two nights ago, the Los Angeles Lakers played and defeated the Los Angeles Clippers. Not very news-worthy, for the most part – except that they had to rally to hang on for the win. Fortunately for the Lakers on Tuesday, they had an opponent who would wind up giving them absolutely no problems – [...]

There is one definite truth about both the Golden State Warriors and Sacramento Kings: lots of offense and defense is an afterthought. Perhaps this was best displayed on Wednesday night when both teams combined for 199 shot attempts and 94 free throw attempts; also factor in that the Warriors’ Monta Ellis and Kings’ Kevin Martin [...]
Kings’ Hot Shooting Trumps Nash’s 31, Cool Off Suns 126-118
The Phoenix Suns are in the fight of their life, so to speak. They are in a playoff chase at the moment and prior to their game Sunday night against the Sacramento Kings, were 3 1/2 games behind the #8 Dallas Mavericks in the Western Conference playoff hunt. Which is unusual only because if their [...]
