3 things we learned as Sacramento pounds Dallas 120-89

DeMarcus Cousins and the Sacramento Kings came to town to face the Dallas Mavericks, and the Kings were highly discourteous guests, beating the Mavs handily.

THIRD TIME NOT THE CHARM

Most of the quarters were played fairly closely(the 4th up until the garbage lineups were inserted), with the one obvious exception being the third, where the Kings outscored the Mavs 29-12, starting with an 11-0 out of the locker room and essentially putting the game out of reach the rest of the way. The shooting discrepancy went 57% to 31%. After being down just 4 at halftime, Dallas fell into a deep shooting hole, and at the other end, had no answer for the opponent.
