After Action Report

In Sacramento, the Kings snuck past the Cavaliers 109-104. Every possession went the Kings way. Kings' old heads steadied the ship in the swings; Cavaliers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
