The fun of watching the Sacramento Kings from last season has been completely eviscerated in three games. It’s one thing to lose to a team better than you, but it’s another to be out of it before halftime. Both teams were on a back-to-back with Utah arriving in Salt Lake City at 2 a.m. The Kings struggled on SEGABABA’s last season and that continues to be a problem as they showed no signs of life after the first few minutes. This simply cannot continue but it gets tougher come Monday.
Quarter-by-quarter recap
The Kings trailed by ten four different times in the opening quarter, 18-8, 28-18, 33-23 and 35-25.
