76ers-Kings Preview

Neither the Philadelphia 76ers nor the Sacramento Kings will factor into the playoffs this season, as Philadelphia will not qualify for only the second time since 2008 while Sacramento will miss out for the seventh straight season.

But lately, things have looked better for the Kings, while the Sixers keep inching dangerously closer to an all-time franchise mark for road futility.

Sacramento will try for its fifth victory in six games at home on Sunday night against Philadelphia.

The Sixers (26-42) have lost two in a row and are the NBA's lowest scoring team at 92.4 points per game, but their struggles have been magnified away from home, where they've lost 15 straight and are 6-25 on the season, averaging 90.2 points per game. They haven't won on the road since a 103-99 victory against the Lakers on New Year's Day.

It's Philadelphia's longest road losing streak since the club dropped 20 in a row from Dec. 28, 1987-March 4, 1988. Perhaps a game against the Kings can help, as the Sixers have won eight of nine meetings, including four in a row in Sacramento.

Jrue Holiday scored just two in a loss against the Clippers on Wednesday, then bounced back with 18 points and a season-high tying 15 assists at Denver on Thursday, but the Sixers still ended up with a 101-100 loss.

All despite having a five-point lead with less than 10 seconds left - seemingly a sure-fire opportunity to put the road losing streak to rest.

"Effort was there, energy was there, it was closing out the game," said Evan Turner, a 74.1 percent free-throw shooter on the season who missed two free throws in the final 10 seconds. "That's not what lost the game. Situations occurred. That's some crazy stuff that just happened. The season's been rough. That's one you just shake your head. It seems like a fluke to me."

Meanwhile, the Kings (25-45) are 6-5 over their last 11 - not overly impressive but notable for a team more than 10 games out of contention for a playoff spot. Sacramento has developed a much better offensive rhythm since the All-Star break. The club leads the NBA in scoring in 16 games since, averaging 109.1 points while shooting 40.6 percent from 3-point range, compared to 96.8 points per game on 35.0 percent shooting in the first 54 games of the season.

Isaiah Thomas and Marcus Thornton have helped key the offensive surge with each being more productive. Thomas is averaging 17.1 on 46.8 percent shooting - 42.1 from beyond the arc - since the break after putting up 12.1 per contest while shooting 31.5 percent from 3-point range in his first 51.

Meanwhile, Thornton in 16 games since the break is averaging 16.7 points and knocking down 44.8 percent of his shots from long distance. He scored 11.5 a contest and hit just 34.7 percent from deep in 44 games before the break.

Thomas had 24 in the previous meeting on Feb. 1 in Philadelphia to go along with Tyreke Evans' 29 but Thaddeus Young led three Philadelphia 20-plus point scorers with 23 and 15 rebounds in an 89-80 Sixers victory.

76ers beat Kings 117-103 to end road skid at 15

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) After opening the New Year with a road victory against the Los Angeles Lakers, the Philadelphia 76ers could not imagine going the next 3 1/2 months without another win.

But that's just what happened to the Sixers, who had to wait 82 days and endure 15 straight losses before winning again away from home.

Dorell Wright hit six 3-pointers and scored 22 points, Jrue Holiday added 21 and the 76ers snapped their longest road losing streak in over 25 years with a 117-103 win over the Sacramento Kings on Sunday night.

Philadelphia center Spencer Hawes knew it was a long time between road wins. But 82 days? He had no idea.

"That's like a summer break when you were in grade school," Hawes said. "We thought we had the last game (Friday against Denver). It's nice to finally get this out of the way."

Philadelphia's road losing streak was its longest since the club dropped 20 in a row from Dec. 28, 1987-March 4, 1988.

It was not only a rare road victory, it was also a rare show of offensive explosiveness for the Sixers, who entered the game last in the NBA with an average of just under 93 points a game.

The Sixers had 91 points entering the fourth quarter and shot 49 percent en route to a season-high point total in beating the Kings for the fifth straight time in Sacramento.

Lavoy Allen had a career-high 20 points and seven rebounds for the Sixers. Damien Wilkins scored 17 points, Hawes had 14 points and 10 rebounds and Thaddeus Young had 14 points.

It helped Philadelphia mentally knowing that the Kings allow the most points per game in the NBA. Sacramento also leads the league in scoring since the All-Star break.

"They don't want to move on defense; they want to get out and run and shoot the ball as quick as they can," said Wilkins, who had six of Philadelphia's 31 assists. "We did a good job of moving the ball and finding the open man for good shots."

Isaiah Thomas scored 25 points, Marcus Thornton added 22 and Tyreke Evans had 19 points and eight assists for the Kings, who had their three-game home win streak snapped. Patrick Patterson chipped in 12 points.

"I think we got down, our shots were not falling, and then we started playing one-on-one and hero ball to get us back into it," Kings forward John Salmons said. "We wanted to cut a 15-point lead with one shot."

Kings center DeMarcus Cousins had five fouls by the midway point of the third quarter and finished with eight points and nine rebounds in 27 minutes.

It was a great overall game for Holiday, who also had 10 rebounds, seven assists and five steals. He was especially effective after shooting 4 of 11 in the opening half.

"We moved the ball around and everybody got good shots," said Wright, who made 6 of 10 from 3-point range. "We just kept fighting. There is a lot of energy in this building. It's a good place to play."

It got loud every time Hawes touched the ball. Hawes, a former King, was booed loudly in pre-game introductions and seemingly every time he did anything, good or bad. Hawes is from Seattle and has been a big proponent of the Kings relocating to his hometown.

"They (Kings fans) were telling me on Twitter all day they would be doing this," Hawes said. "So it was no surprise. But that's the kind of stuff that gets me going."

Hawes responded right away to the booing, hitting the game's first basket, an 18-foot jumper. He made 7 of 13 shots and added three assists and one blocked shot.

"I have mixed feelings about the Kings moving," Hawes said. "But I've made my intentions clear where I stand. Seattle is where I'm from and I would love to see them get a team."

Following the Sixers' early spurt in the fourth, the Kings could never get the lead under double digits. After getting to within 109-96, Young had a tip-in for a basket and followed with a layup to give Philadelphia a 113-96 lead with 2:42 remaining.

Ahead by nine to start the fourth quarter, Wilkins made a 3-pointer that ignited a 14-2 run culminating with a three-point play by Wilkins at the 8:23 mark that put Philadelphia in front 105-84.

"They ran their stuff and they got great shots," Evans said. "They outrebounded us, got second chances and we couldn't find the basket after that."

The Sixers continually hit from the perimeter in the third quarter when they outscored the Kings 33-24. Holiday scored eight points to help Philadelphia, which made 15 of 24 shots to take a 91-82 lead into the fourth.

Wright enjoyed a big first half with 16 points and was instrumental in the Sixers rallying from a nine-point deficit after one quarter to tie the game at 58 by intermission. Wright had four 3-pointers in the second quarter when he scored 13 points.

Evans had 12 of his 14 first-half points in the opening quarter. Thornton had 12 points in the second quarter for the Kings, who were outscored 36-27.

Sacramento city officials announced Saturday they have a term sheet for a $447 million downtown arena. The proposed arena deal will go before the city council on Tuesday. That would allow Sacramento to pitch its plan April 3 to the NBA in New York.

A Sacramento group, that includes Mark Mastrov, Ron Burkle and Vivek Ranadive, wants to buy the team from the Maloof family and keep it in Sacramento, where the franchise has been since 1985.

Hedge-fund manager Chris Hansen and Microsoft chief executive Steve Ballmer head up a Seattle group that has signed a contract to purchase the Kings from the Maloofs and plans to move the team to Seattle for next season.

Notes: Philadelphia outrebounded the Kings 48-37. ... Cousins and Young earned technical fouls in the second quarter. ... The game, which was billed as "Here We Buy," was a grassroots effort by fans to show support for the Kings. Attendance was 14,647. ... The Sixers conclude a four-game road trip Monday in Utah. Philadelphia will play nine of its final 13 games on the road. ... Philadelphia's reserves shot 10 of 16 in the first half and had 30 points.

Notebook: 76ers 117, Kings 103

James Ham, for NBA.com
Posted Mon Mar 25, 2013 12:24 AM - Updated Mon Mar 25, 2013 12:24 AM

THE FACTS: After a tightly contested first half, the Philadelphia 76ers got enough separation from the Sacramento Kings to take a 117-103 win on Sunday night.

Jrue Holiday barely missed a triple-double, finishing with 21 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists for the Sixers (27-42). Dorell Wright added 22 points while Lavoy Allen had 20 off the Philly bench. Spencer Hawes scored 14 points and grabbed 10 rebounds in 31 minutes.

Tyreke Evans fought off stomach issues to score 19 points and hand out eight assists for Sacramento (25-46). Isaiah Thomas dropped in 25 points, but failed to register an assist in 29 minutes. Marcus Thornton added 22 points off the Kings bench in the loss.

QUOTABLE: "It finally feels good to win on the road. I'm so happy for our guys, especially the way they bounced back after that tough tough loss in Denver. It shows a lot about our guys at this stage of the season to come out and fight."

-- Sixers coach Doug Collins

THE STAT: The 76ers outrebounded the Kings 48-37 on the night. As Sacramento began to run out of gas, Philadelphia beat them to every loose ball, finishing with 17 offensive rebounds to just nine for the Kings.

TURNING POINT: The Kings came out flat in the third quarter and the 76ers torched them. After playing a road game in Denver last night, it looked like the Kings just ran out of gas in the second half as Philly outscored the home team 59-44 after the break.

QUOTABLE II: "The amount of support they've given this team for the last 28-years has been incredible. And whether they're winning or they're losing, they come out every night and they support the team. Other than the ones that booed me, I can't say anything bad about them."

-- Seattle native and Kings draft pick Spencer Hawes on the Sacramento crowd that booed him

HOT: The Kings bench came in firing in the second quarter, combining for 25 points on 10-for-14 shooting. Thornton led the way with 12 points in 12 minutes, while Patrick Patterson added 10 points and grabbed three rebounds before the intermission.

NOT: DeMarcus Cousins couldn't stay on the floor, playing just 27 minutes due to foul trouble. When he was in the game, he struggled, scoring just eight points on 3-for-9 shooting.

GOOD MOVE: Collins had his Sixers team push the tempo against the road-weary Kings and it worked to perfection. Sacramento had no legs down the stretch and Philly took advantage.

NOTABLE: Allen registered a new career-high with 20 points on 9-for-13 shooting. His previous high was 15, which he scored against the Bulls on Feb. 1, 2012. ... The 76ers set a new season-high with 117 points scored and tied their season-high in assists with 31.

UP NEXT: For the 76ers, Monday @ Utah, Wednesday vs. Bucks, Friday @ Cleveland. For the Kings, Wednesday @ Golden State, Thursday @ Phoenix, Saturday vs. Lakers.
