Well Kyle Korver is one of the best three point shooters in the history of the game and the Kings left him open way too many times. Sometimes it was because of poor transition defense. On other possessions, it was bad awareness and help defense. The Kings as a team have been overhelping all season to their detriment. Opposing teams have made them pay by finding the open shooters. I have to believe it's becoming part of the game plan against Sacramento, along with running Pick & Rolls, another area of concern for the Kings.
Speaking of Turbo Ben, he finally broke out of his shooting slump with 10 points on 5-6 shooting. He looked much more in rhythm when he was shooting, taking his time and staying square to the basket. He got some great looks in the mid-range off of screens, and that's an area where he can really excel.
The Kings will now travel to Florida where they'll play the defending champs in the first game of another back-to-back.
