SACRAMENTO – The last time this much carnage was inflicted on northern California, the gold rushers were taking everything they could find that was worth anything.
This time, it was the Mavericks leaving this place barren.
They put the worst kind of hurt on the Sacramento Kings with a blowout win on Tuesday, then a gut-wrenching stab to the home team’s heart on Friday night.
It was a wonderful few days in Sac-Town, if you were a Maverick.
On Friday, they won their sixth consecutive game. They got it despite trailing by 15 points in the first half and by 10 early in the fourth quarter.
