  Sacramento 117, Seattle 101
   Starry Performance Carries Kings 

  SACRAMENTO, Feb. 3 (Ticker) -- Brad Miller and Peja Stojakovic showed
  why they were named to the Western Conference All-Star team.

  Miller collected 25 points, 15 rebounds and five assists and Stojakovic
  scored 26 points as the Sacramento Kings  rallied from an early double-
  digit deficit to defeat the Seattle SuperSonics, 117-101.

  Mike Bibby added 18 points for the Kings, who trailed by 10 points early
  in the second quarter and 61-56 at halftime before taking control.

  Miller, who was named to his second All-Star Game, scored 14 points in
  the third quarter for Sacramento, which took the lead for good, 73-71,
  on a 3-pointer by Anthony Peeler with 4:37 left in the period.

  "I really think that he deserved it,"  Stojakovic said of the selection
  of Miller, who made his All-Star debut last season with Indiana. "He is
  playing on a team that has the best record  and he is a big part of our
  success. He really deserves a shot."

  "It is kinda fun knowing that I have done it on each side of the league,
  " Miller said.  "I was expecting to go home on the All-Star break. I was
  planning on being ice fishing  and riding my four-wheeler.  I could care
  less about the recognition."

  The Kings took an 89-81 edge into the fourth quarter and, after Seattle's
  Antonio Daniels nailed a jumper  to begin the period,  used a 22-7 run to
  put away the game.

  Sacramento, which has won four straight, improved its league-best marks
  to 22-3 at home and 34-12 overall.

  Rashard Lewis scored 25 points, All-Star Ray Allen added 23 and Vladimir
  Radmanovic 19 for Seattle, which has lost seven of its last eight on the
  road.

  "We stopped playing defense in the second half and they're a good scoring
  team,"  Lewis said.  "We executed in the first half  and they executed in
  the second half better than we did."

  "They made most of their shots," added Radmanovic, whose team allowed the
  Kings to shoot 51 percent (43-of-85). "The way they were shooting tonight,
  it was impossible to do anything.  You just have to pray  that they miss.
  And they didn't miss tonight." The SuperSonics made 9-of-17 3-pointers in
  the first half but just 3-of-11 after the break.

  "You just  have to  keep telling  guys,  'Don't lose your  concentration,
  eventually  they're  going to  go through  a cold streak  if you keep the
  pressure on,'" Kings coach Rick Adelman said. "All game long we were able
  to score, it was just a matter of making some stops at the other end."

  "I thought we gave  all we had  in that first half,"  Seattle coach Nate
  McMillan said. "In the third quarter, they came out much more aggressive
  and they were just quicker than we were in the second half."
