The Kings were back home tonight after a short trip to Phoenix to light the beam as they hosted the Brooklyn Nets. We have all reached that point where we are so close, yet still so far from the holidays and as each day passes, the motivation for production dwindles. Hopefully the Kings are better at their jobs than I am and can remain focused on the tasks ahead, because it’s a long work week for them. Tonight was the first of four games in six nights and nobody likes to start a long work week off with an L. Let’s see how they did:<\/p>\n
Outcome<\/strong>: Kings win, 131-118<\/p>\n Sacramento Kings<\/strong>: 131 pts, 51.1% fg, 55.6% 3 pt, 71.4% ft, 38 ast, 42 reb, 13 to<\/p>\n Brooklyn Nets<\/strong>: 118 pts, 47.7% fg, 48.3% 3 pt, 95.2% ft, 23 ast, 41 reb, 13 to<\/p>\n That was FUN. The Kings are way better than I when it comes to doing their job and I am so grateful for that. When the Kings are hitting their shots AND playing defense, there’s no better basketball to be witnessed. The Kings held control of this game for all 48 minutes. Brooklyn made a run late in the game, hitting 5 3-pointers in the fourth quarter and cutting the Kings’ lead to just 6 points. But every time the Nets got close, the Kings responded accordingly and did so in exciting and entertaining ways.<\/p>\n Imagine if Malik made this \ud83d\ude31\ud83d\ude31 pic.twitter.com\/KBXkFaXgFw<\/a><\/p>\n — Kings on NBCS (@NBCSKings) December 12, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nThe Good, The Better, & The Best<\/strong><\/h4>\n
