Scoreboard Gets Workout As Kings Edge Nuggets
SACRAMENTO, Calif., Jan. 11 (Ticker)-- Peja Stojakovic outdueled Andre
Miller and lifted the Sacramento Kings to their 14th straight home win
over the Denver Nuggets.
Stojakovic scored 33 points to lead the Kings to their fourth consecutive
victory at ARCO Arena, 117-106 over the Nuggets. "He's a scorer and he's
a shooter," Miller said of Stojakovic. "And when a guy is 6-foot-9 and can
shoot from the free-throw line and guys look to get him the ball, he's only
going to get better."
Miller finished with a season-high 30 points, but the Nuggets remained win
-less in Sacramento since Jan. 7, 1997. Sacramento placed six players in
double figures as Mike Bibby added 18 points and Bobby Jackson had 16 off
the bench. "Overall team effort, keeping them off the boards and playing
great 'D' in the last few minutes of the game, rebounding and making shots
," Jackson said. "And that sealed off the game."
Rookie Carmelo Anthony collected 22 points and 12 rebounds while Nene
scored 20 points for Denver, which was denied a third straight win.After
making a layup that increased the Kings' lead to 102-94 with 7:03
remaining, Brad Miller was ejected for yelling at a referee and finished
with 14 points. Denver responded with a 6-2 spurt to cut the deficit to
104-100 with 5:22 left but got no closer. Stojakovic hit a 3-pointer with
56 seconds remaining to give Sacramento a 114-106 lead. "Peja hit a big
shot and after that we had a couple of stops and got the rebounds that we
needed to, and the game was ours," Bibby said.
The game was the 200th consecutive sellout for Sacramento, the longest
active streak in the NBA. "It's great playing here at ARCO,"Kings forward
Tony Massenburg said. "You know that the crowd is hear to support you,
which is always great. You always have a sixth man."
Sacramento led 57-50 at halftime and never trailed thereafter. The Nuggets
squandered numerous opportunities to narrow the gap by making turnovers at
critical moments."One of the keys to this game for us was to eliminate bad
turnovers," Denver coach Jeff Bzdelik said. "Sacramento just feasts on bad
turnovers and turns those into points, and we had 21 turnovers that yield
33 points for Sacramento. That was a big key."
The Kings converted a rare four-point play with 8:25 left in the third
quarter to build a 67-57 lead. Nene fouled Bibby while running through his
pick in an attempt to close out on Stojakovic, who nailed a 3-pointer.
Bibby added the free throw.
The win was the 627th for Sacramento coach Rick Adelman, moving him past
former Nuggets coach Doug Moe into 17th place on the all-time list.
