Kings End Six-Game Skid, Edge Knicks In OT 118-114

The New York Knicks, in their game against the Sacramento Kings at Madison Square Garden, looked completely unlike the Knicks team that was 12 games below .500 prior to the tip-off. But then came the fourth quarter collapse. The Knicks were up by as many as 15 in the final period, but Tyreke Evans led [...]

Strong Bench Play Helps Hawks Bounce Kings 108-97

The Atlanta Hawks are usually a team that gets its lion’s share of points from their starting five, along with perhaps the top sixth man in the league this year, Jamal Crawford. During the Hawks game Wednesday night against the visiting Sacramento Kings, there was balanced scoring by the starting five; however, it was Crawford [...]

Big Fourth Quarter Run Helps Magic Make Kings Vanish 109-88

The good news for the Sacramento Kings was that it was learned earlier today that Kevin Martin has been cleared to play and may be in uniform as soon as this Friday. Unfortunately for them, that’s the only good news they would get in preparation for their game against the Orlando Magic at Arco Arena [...]

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 [...]

Kobe’s Trey At Horn Helps Lakers Rally Past Kings 109-108

Friday’s game between the Sacramento Kings and the Los Angeles Lakers at Staples Center could very well be compared to the fisherman who had bad luck while out on the lake. The Kings had ample opportunity to put the Lakers away in this contest, holding a 20-point lead at one point and poised to pull [...]

Bryant Drains 38, Lakers Outlast Kings In 2 OT’s 112-103

No more tears now; I will think about revenge. – Mary, Queen of Scots You can well imagine what the Los Angeles Lakers were feeling after getting humbled by the Cleveland Cavaliers on Christmas Day. A heck of a holiday present, no? But as all quality NBA teams do, they regroup and play as if [...]

Jefferson Helps Spurs End 3-Game Skid, Crown Kings 118-106

One would think that with the Sacramento Kings’ weird schedule to start the month of December (home for 2 games, at Phoenix, home against Miami, on the road against New Orleans), they would be a bit tired prior to their game against the San Antonio Spurs. Interestingly enough, perhaps due to their youth, they actually [...]
