Warriors Win 4th Straight, Topple Kings 119-112 In OT

The Golden State Warriors, other than getting the prerequisite media coverage, have for the most part flown under the radar. And that is rather interesting considering that they were on a timely, three-game winning streak prior to hosting the Sacramento Kings at Oracle Arena Friday night. For 48 minutes, both teams battled, with the end [...]

Kings Lose 10th Straight Road Game, Raptors Prevail 118-112

The Sacramento Kings are one of the worst road teams in the National Basketball Association, having only won two games away from Arco Arena prior to their game at Air Canada Centre against the Toronto Raptors Sunday afternoon. Unfortunately for the Kings, they would not have the services of Tyreke Evans, due to a sprained [...]

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; [...]

Big First Half Helps Warriors Destroy Kings 130-98

With Monta Ellis sitting out Wednesday night’s game for the Golden State Warriors as they hosted the Sacramento Kings, they were missing 26 points a game. With a team such as Golden State, they typically would fold up their tent. But then again C.J. Watson came to the Warriors’ rescue. Watson scored a career-high 40 [...]

Nash, Stoudemire Combine For 54; Suns Burn Kings 113-109

  The Phoenix Suns, as of late, have had this little issue dogging them. The issue in question? Gaining big leads just to lose them – twice during their current seven-game road trip. One would ask if they have learned anything from the road trip at all. During Tuesday night’s game against the Sacramento Kings at [...]

Mavericks Continue Winning Ways On Road, Down Kings 99-91

A good sign that your team is successful is when they win the majority of games at home while winning a good percentage while away from their home venue. If you’re winning 40%, then consider yourself successful. The Dallas Mavericks can consider themselves one of the few teams in the Association that are relatively successful [...]

Aldridge, Roy Combine For 50; Trail Blazers Beat Kings 95-88

Of the 30 teams in the NBA, perhaps the Portland Trail Blazers are one of the least healthy squads out there. Their list is large by league standards: Nicolas Batum (shoulder surgery), Travis Outlaw (broken foot), Rudy Fernandez (leg pain) and Greg Oden (broken kneecap). That should give you an idea what shape this team [...]
