Sacramento(15-7)host the Hornets(2-20)in the 2nd meeting between the 2 clubs for this season. With the Kings coming off a loss to the Lakers at home,I Totally expect the Kings to be really bitter and looking to take out their frustrations on the Hornets,which will be pretty bad for New Orleans looking at their record and how they play.i feel really sorry for N.O The Kings will have no problem excuting high scoring drives,and they will have an easy time defending the ball against the Hornets...so this will be a very easy win for us. Kings 104 Hornets 89
The Kings should crush the Hornets in this one. They should have a bitter taste in thier mouth after the Lakers game on Thursday and there is no better team in the league to be playing next than the depleted, awful Hornets. I will be surprised if this is not the largest margin of the season for the Kings. Kings by 20
If the kings continue their lethargic play of the previous 3 games the kings win by 6.I doubt they have such a bitter taste in their mouths from last game as they simply didnt come to play.If they play with any sort of hustle in this game it will be a convincing double digit win.If not it will be somewhat of a struggle,AGAIN.
Well the last game against them started out slow with the Kings and even during what at times looked like some sort of controlled chaos, they still easily cruzed in with a win. I think it will be the same this time. slow start but strong finish. Kings by 15pts
yup... another slow start and then the Kings kicked it into gear. This is going to be a real problem if they do this against teams that have the ability to score. and again, Webber didnt play. To be honest, I dont think that anyone had any real questions about the outcome of this game. The who's & how's were all just scenery to go along with an eventuality that this game was not going to be in question (of course it didnt look that way at the end of one, but once the Kings had gotten it up to a 40 pt lead at one time, that would have ended any questions about the outcome of this game). I was unfortunatly not able to catch this game on TV (this being the silly season & all there was much christmas stuff that needed doing today). But from the pieces that I was able to catch on the radio, Songaila and Ostertag had pretty good performances tonight. (for those on the Ostertag Stat Watch, he was 3 of 3 from the floor with 6 rbs and 4 blks)
Q: What do you do when you play horrible defense against the Lakers, which may have caused you to lose a bit on confidence on the defensive end? A: Play the Hornets A blowout win by the Kings was to be expected, but the defense in the final 3 quarters was above and beyond expectations. The Hornets only had 14 baskets after the 1st quarter.

I really hope that they can turn things around... I would hate to break that record that the Sixers hold for the most consecutive losses & the worst season and they are heading that way quick
107-71 Kings..36 Point winners and without a doubt a Big win for us..Great going Sacramento The Defense was simply exceuted brillantly,as of course it was against one of the worst teams in the NBA,but a win's a win right All of the Kings players must be given credit due for the excellent performance,esp Miller and Songollia(who did a great job filling in for Webber).overall this was a great win..so it's all good
