Kings vs. Pacers Final Score: Marcus Thornton’s Spontaneous Human Combustion Not Enough To Stop Pacers

Marcus Thornton spontaneously combusted and arose from the ashes like a glorious Phoenix (the kind of Phoenix that's SUPER good at shooting basketballs)!!! But, the Kings come up short.

Michael Malone said his team would have to control/push the tempo to have a chance in this game and that's exactly what they did in the first quarter. The ball was tipped, both teams traded baskets for the first couple of mins… and then MARCUS FREAKING THORNTON happened! Lil Buckets dropped 23pts on 9-12 shooting in the 1st, and the Kings put 37 on the board against the best defense in the NBA.

A disappointing ending for sure but it's hard to be disappointed in the Kings' effort.

Watch for Akis' full recap in the morning.
