The Kings' awful offense concedes to Charlotte's largely awful offense.
In an overly sloppy game, the Bobcats jumped out to a double-digit lead in the first half and held on to beat the Sacramento Kings.
I'm sure Bobcats fans and Kings fans can come together in this moment and agree on two things: first, Blake Griffin scares the daylights out of us at the same time we appreciate that his career...
The Kings look to win a second straight game as the Bobcats visit.
So begins the most difficult stretch of the season for the Charlotte Bobcats. Over the next nine days, the Cats will play six road games in western states, and though only one of them, the Utah Jazz, has even an inkling of championship hope at the moment, none of them looks to be an easy game, starting with tonight's game against the Sacramento Kings.
