It's been about four years since the Clippers last beat the Sacramento Kings. It's about time it happens again, isn't it? Tonight Los Angeles collides with it's Pacific Division rival at Staples Center (7:30pm) in the second of a three game home stand.
The Kings 93-80 triumph over Mike Dunleavy's squad November 28 at Arco Arena was their 14th consecutive victory over the Clippers. The last time L.A. dumped the Kings was January 18, 2003!
The Clippers enter tonight's match-up last in the Pacific at 12-16 but feeling a bit better about the quality of their play lately having won two of their last three including Wednesday's 100-77 demolition of Boston. Sacramento has won it's last two, sits 12-14 a game in front of Los Angeles in the Pacific standings, and is coming off of a 101-76 rout of Philly Wednesday.
