Sacramento Kings Tomorrow

i like your angle. tired legs, spurs will tank a game here and there just to avoid injury and fatigue down the stretch. kings beat spurs once in january but parker had 24 points. if they can hold him to a reasonable amount then they'll have a chance. i am a little worried that parker will get a ton of easy layups if he wants them though. hope maybe he is a little tired.

As I said before the Spurs-Hornets game last week, the Spurs have been atrocious on road b2b's over the past couple years.. of course it held up and the Spurs didn't cover the 5 pts in New Orleans on Saturday night.

For whatever reason the Spurs only lose lately when a game follows multiple days off. Just this month alone they had 2 days off following a loss to denver. Had 2 days off following loss to clips. And had 3 days off following a loss to Dallas. They will have 2 days off following the Sac game. I don't put much stock into that but just I can't fade the other trend of being a poor team on a road b2b situation

As a die hard Sacramento Kings fan I like your train of thought. However it depends on the spread. The Kings are very inconsistent. Evans continues to confuse me. He was one of 3 people in NBA history to average 20 points points 5 assists 5 rebounds in his rookie year. He had me convinced that he was a franchise type player after his rookie year. The truth is, the Kings play better without him. His jump shot his horrible. I like the Spurs at -3 if that is the line. However Isiah Thomas is the truth, his defense is GREAT. Tony Parker will have his hands full and Cousins is a beast down low and will continue his hot streak against the undersized Bliar. I hope your right... but I'm betting the spread is -6 and will move to -6.5

Good luck, I like your insight as I am new to the sight but have noticed your posts as of late.

Pop has been sitting out players when there's a bunch of games clustered. I know he sat out a couple over the weekend but it's still their 5th game in 6 days and he may sit out some of them. So keep an eye out for that

6 or 6.5 on the road? That would be nice for Sac backers, but frankly very unlikely.

Spurs -3.5. Kings get up

I was thinking the same. He has been resting his older players in these fatigue games. I could see him playing everyone because SA doesn't play again until Saturday, but it wouldn't surprise me if he did sit some guys. I don't think it is too easy playing b2b road games against PHX and SAC. Two fast paced teams, not easy in a b2b.

Game is nationally televised on NBATV. SAC shows up on nationally televised games.

They beat OKC on national TV .. i remember that one. It was the biggest game of their season - city was looking forward to it for months, all-black night the crowd was wearing all black, OKC was only favored by 2, OKC was being pounded with 97% on them, line didn't move all day. Sac wins SU

The Spurs don't play again until Saturday. Will they go all out tonight knowing they have some time off?

Every loss they've had this month preceded multiple days off.

Public pounding the over here, will play the under, hope to get 215.

Kings look good but this is a revenge game for San Antonio. People still haven't realized that Kings are a very good home team against the better competition.
