After Action Report

In Sacramento, the Kings downed the Cavaliers 118-103. The tempo dragged the Cavaliers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Second-chance points piled up for the Kings; the Kings pushed the pace until the other side broke. The Kings locker room is humming, and it showed. Kings' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
