Fool me once…
“I'm against this trade. I always have been, and yesterday didn't help. Artest will not be good for Sacramento.”-SacKid 1-25-2006 Now just hang on, let me explain myself. When I saw Artest destroy a television camera in January of 2003 after he was ejected, I disliked him.

Artest debuts in a loss to Celtics
Ron Artest made nice with his new team. He managed to avoid any conflict with the Boston fans. For a debut, the Sacramento Kings are going to have to consider it a success. The former Indiana troublemaker scored 15 points in his first game since his antics got him benched in mid-December, but he and the Kings faltered in the fourth quarter on Friday night as the Celtics beat Sacramento 84-74.

Kings nab one at the Garden in OT
Mike Bibby and Brad Miller made the wait for Ron Artest a little easier for the Sacramento Kings. Bibby scored eight of his 35 points in overtime and added 10 assists, and Miller had 25 points and 15 rebounds to lead the short-handed Kings over the New York Knicks 106-102 on Wednesday night. Sacramento acquired the volatile Artest from the Indiana Pacers for Peja Stojakovic in a trade shortly before the game. The Kings hope Artest, a superb all-around player who is one of the league's best defenders, will join them in time for their game at Boston on Friday night.

Distracted Kings fall to Sixers
The Sacramento Kings could've used either Ron Artest or Peja Stojakovic against Allen Iverson and the Philadelphia 76ers. Iverson scored 41 points and Chris Webber had 17 points and 13 rebounds, leading Philadelphia to a 109-103 victory over undermanned Sacramento on Tuesday night. The Kings were without Stojakovic because he stayed at the hotel after the team reportedly agreed to send him to Indiana for Artest earlier in the day. However, the trade fell through, though Artest left open the possibility that something could still happen. The volatile forward was deactivated by the Pacers in December after requesting a trade.

O'neal, Wade too much for Kings
Shaquille O'Neal was back in dominant form Sunday night. O'Neal scored 27 points, shooting 11-of-15 from the field and leading the Miami Heat over the Sacramento Kings 119-99. Slowed by an early season ankle injury, O'Neal's offensive output has dropped eight points per game this season from his career average of 26 points.

No win for Kings in Orlando
Mike Bibby limped to the free-throw line in the final second, knowing the game probably rested on his weary shoulders. But he also knew his career high was at stake -- and with two final free throws, Bibby got the win and the record. Bibby finished his 42-point performance with 0.4 seconds left, and the Sacramento Kings held off the Orlando Magic 104-100 Sunday night in a meeting of seriously short-handed teams.

Classic Kings-Lakers matchup with Kings coming out on top
Mike Bibby scored 40 points, Kenny Thomas had six points in overtime to cap his first career triple-double, and the Sacramento Kings overcame Kobe Bryant's 51-point performance for a 118-109 overtime victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday night. Brad Miller scored 16 points and forced overtime on a 3-pointer with 4.1 seconds left in regulation for the Kings, who won their third straight game in a thriller despite Bryant's best game ever against the Lakers' longtime rivals.

Kings block out the Suns by 29 points
Kevin Martin scored a career-high 25 points, rookie Francisco Garcia added career-bests of 21 points and 10 rebounds, and the injury-depleted Sacramento Kings improbably handed the Phoenix Suns their biggest loss of the season, 119-90 on Tuesday night. Kenny Thomas had 22 points and 15 rebounds, and Mike Bibby added 19 before sitting out the final 10? minutes of a surprisingly one-sided contest.

Bibby with career high in win over Orlando
Mike Bibby limped to the free-throw line in the final second, knowing the game probably rested on his weary shoulders. But he also knew his career high was at stake -- and with two final free throws, Bibby got the win and the record. Bibby finished his 42-point performance with 0.4 seconds left, and the Sacramento Kings held off the Orlando Magic 104-100 Sunday night in a meeting of seriously short-handed teams.

Hornets get one against Kings
With a nearly full house supporting them, the New Orleans Hornets didn't let another fourth-quarter lead slip away in yet another home away from home. David West scored 19 points and Rasual Butler added a season-high 16 to help New Orleans beat the Sacramento Kings 90-76 Friday night in their third "home" arena this season.

Kings diffuse Rockets
The struggling Sacramento Kings caught the Houston Rockets at the perfect time. Mike Bibby and Corliss Williamson scored 19 points apiece and the Kings beat the short-handed Rockets 88-80 Wednesday night. For the second straight night, the Rockets had six players out with injuries, including stars Tracy McGrady and Yao Ming. McGrady's bad back will be re-evaluated on Friday and Yao is out at least three more weeks after toe surgery.

Grizzlies bite Kings
Mike Miller never had a triple-double in his basketball career, and no Grizzlies player had one since the team left Vancouver. Both streaks ended Tuesday night, as the Grizzlies guard had 21 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists to lead Memphis to a 99-85 victory over the Sacramento Kings.

Pacers pound Kings at ARCO
Stephen Jackson stared down the Sacramento crowd and blew on his hot fingers after his fourth consecutive 3-pointer ripped through the net. The Indiana Pacers were well on their way to a blowout victory -- and the Kings' stars were on their way to a benching. Jackson scored 17 of his season-high 31 points while hitting five of the Pacers' 13 3-pointers, and Jermaine O'Neal had 12 points and eight rebounds in his return to the lineup for a 108-83 win Sunday night.

Kings sink Clippers yet again
If Sam Cassell had any hair, he would be tearing it out while trying to figure out why the Los Angeles Clippers haven't beaten the Sacramento Kings in three years. This time, the reasons were simple: Mike Bibby's gutsy fourth quarter and Brad Miller's big defensive play in the final minute sealed another win over the Kings' downstate rivals. Bibby scored 11 of his 32 points in the final period, and Cassell missed a potential go-ahead 3-pointer with 6 seconds left in the Kings' 11th straight victory over Los Angeles, 118-114 Friday night.
More...
Webber, Sixers cruise past Kings
Chris Webber now has another good memory from Sacramento. Webber had 20 points and 16 rebounds against his former team, and the Philadelphia 76ers beat the Kings 111-98 on Tuesday night. It was Webber's second game in Sacramento since being traded by the Kings last February. He is still fondly remembered, evidenced by the standing ovation he received from the Arco Arena crowd when introduced.

Depleted Kings get it done against Celtics
Kenny Thomas sometimes felt ignored by the Sacramento Kings this season, so he's filling a hole in their injury-depleted lineup both with points and attitude. So is young Kevin Martin -- and even inconsistent Mike Bibby has been steady when the Kings need him most. Bibby had 33 points and 10 assists, Thomas added a season-high 29 points and the injury-depleted Kings finished a dismal December with a 116-112 victory over the Boston Celtics on Friday night.

Kings break the losing streak in LA
Mike Bibby scored 17 of his season-high 38 points in the third quarter and added a season-best 10 assists, and the Sacramento Kings snapped a five-game losing streak with a 110-93 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday night. The injury-depleted Kings beat the Clippers for the 10th straight time and 15th time in 16 meetings, despite playing without three of their top four scorers -- Peja Stojakovic, Shareef Abdur-Rahim and Bonzi Wells, who are averaging a combined 48.7 points.

Another 5 game streak, in the bad way
Even the offensively challenged Portland Trail Blazers looked good against the Sacramento Kings. Zach Randolph had 22 points and nine rebounds, Juan Dixon added 21 points and Portland sent the Kings to their fifth straight loss, 105-92 on Monday night. Steve Blake and Ruben Patterson scored 12 points apiece for the Trail Blazers, who reached 100 points for the first time this season. With an uncharacteristically mistake-free offense, the Blazers maintained a 10-point halftime lead through most of the second half of just their fourth victory in 15 games.
