Streaking Bobcats shoot for 8th straight home win vs. Kings
Basketball Betting Lines
01/18/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The surging Charlotte Bobcats hope to stay on the winning
path when they continue a six-game homestand Monday afternoon versus the
Sacramento Kings at Time Warner Cable Arena.
Charlotte has won the first four tests of the residency and a franchise-best
seven in a row at home, including Saturday's 125-99 victory over the Phoenix Suns behind 29 points and 13 rebounds from Gerald Wallace. Stephen Jackson
contributed 29 points, eight assists, five rebounds and five steals for the
Bobcats, who are a solid 16-4 as the host this season and will also entertain
Miami on the current homestand.
"We knew that they had a tough loss last night and they were going to come out
and try to play with a lot of energy, but we knew we had to make the first
stand," Jackson said. "We had it in our minds tonight that we needed to get
off to a good start. We were able to get out to a good start and sustain it
the rest of the game."
Derrick Brown netted 18 points off the bench in a winning cause.
Meanwhile, Sacramento will resume its six-game road trip this afternoon and
has lost three straight overall. It fell to 0-2 on the east coast swing
following a 96-86 decision in Washington, as Kevin Martin posted 23 points and
Tyreke Evans notched 21 points, seven assists and six boards in defeat, the
Kings' eighth in the last nine contests.
"These past couple games we just haven't been able to hit shots, and that's
our team's strength," Martin said. "We've been holding teams under 100 points
on this trip, so once we start hitting shots, we'll be fine."
Spencer Hawes donated 11 points for the Kings, who will also visit the Hawks,
Magic and Heat on the road swing and are just 3-15 away from ARCO Arena this
season.
Charlotte won both meetings with the Kings a year ago.
