Lakers Wrest Victory From Kings’ Grasp
Posted on 14 Apr 2011 by Steven Jones.
We all know how the movie ends. The ragtag misfits, buoyed by their passionate home crowd, upset the purple-and-gold Goliath in the last game of the season. Their wealthy owners, encouraged by the mayor who still fondly recalls his glory days, have a change of heart and keep the team where it belongs. Trust the Los Angeles Lakers to stray from the script. Their 116-108 victory over the host S...

Evans’ 10 Dimes Prove He’s No PG
Posted on 4 Apr 2011 by Steven Jones.
If this is to work – “this” being “Tyreke Evans coexisting with Marcus Thornton/DeMarcus Cousins/et al while playing point guard” – then the remaining Sacramento Kings supporters need to see some evidence. A 10-assist night for Evans, even against a slumping Utah team (whom they easily defeated, 106-97), would seem to be the needed proof. His assists tonight led uniformly to high-...

Nuggets Beat Up Kings for Second Time This Week
Posted on 2 Apr 2011 by Steven Jones.
Most teams that play the Denver Nuggets expect to walk away with a few bumps and bruises. The Sacramento Kings suffered more than many Friday night, and walked away with a frustrating loss to boot. The Kings were less than 48 hours removed from Wednesday’s 104-90 loss in Denver. Their home arena did nothing to cure those ills, as they were undone by a combination of untimely turnovers and...

Thornton Shines, Evans Defers in Wild Kings Victory
Posted on 27 Mar 2011 by Steven Jones.
For one game, the Sacramento Kings could pretend that there is no alpha dog battle brewing. For one game, their roster had a clear pecking order, with one star surrounded by a capable crew of supporters. For one game, that star was not named Tyreke Evans. He went by the much more unassuming handle of Marcus Thornton. The league's reigning Rookie of the Year yielded the spotlight to midseason ...

Bulls Charge, Kings Shrink
Posted on 22 Mar 2011 by Steven Jones.
Numerous writers described the mid-1990s Chicago Bulls as resembling an octopus on defense. Long-limbed athletes like Jordan, Pippen, Grant, and later Harper and Rodman cut the available space in half and made every pass an adventure. On Monday night, the octopus was back in the United Center. The unfortunate Sacramento Kings were more like a jellyfish, minus the sting. Not every Kings pass...

Warriors Rely On Ellis Again To Beat Kings
Posted on 22 Jan 2011 by Scott Johnston.
Monta Ellis was not having a good game. With time running down, he had 19 points in what was looking like a home loss to the woeful Sacramento Kings. But All-Stars can awaken at any given moment, and Monta Ellis is an All-Star. Off an inbounds pass, he buried a three with 23.7 seconds left to cut the Kings lead to one. He was hardly done. In fact, he was just getting started. After the Kings Po...
