Kings 111, Nets 109: Kings escape a nailbiter

Rajon Rondo got ANOTHER triple double and DeMarcus Cousins exploded in the second half to power the Kings

Sheesh. Nothing easy for the Sacramento Kings. After a first half of truly godawful defense that found them down by double digits, the Kings found a way to clamp down in the second. DeMarcus Cousins exploded after an entirely forgettable first half for 30 points in the second on his way to a 40 point outing before fouling out in the fourth. Unfortunately, after Cousins fouled out, they watched a comfortable lead whittle down to only two and the last seconds of the game were far more tense than they had to be.
