Francisco Garcia will try to shoot the Rockets deep into the playoffs

The Dream Shake — At the trade deadline, the Rockets were nearly universally praised in landing Thomas Robinson for just Patrick Patterson and friends, but most ignored Francisco Garcia's inclusion into the deal. After all, his presence in the trade seemed like nothing more than a salary dump for the Maloofs and Garcia would be sitting behind Carlos Delfino in the wing rotation. A few weeks later, Garcia has emerged as a crucial bench cog for the Rockets and his shooting has helped the Rockets more than once with Delfino and Parsons on the bench with injuries. As the postseason approaches, what can Garc...

Toney Douglas sparks big fourth quarter comeback as Kings beat the Clippers 116 to 101

Sactown Royalty — It’s Tony Douglas’ life!! We’re just living in it!! — Eduardo Montes (@ed_m7) March 20, 2013 I'm on record as hating the trade that sent Thomas Robinson to the Houston Rockets for Patrick Patterson, Cole Aldrich and Toney Douglas. I called it a short term fix for a team building for the long term. I still stand by that. I overlooked however, the potential impact these additions have on the team for the long term. Patrick Patterson has been exactly what we expected: an efficient scorer who works hard on both ends of the court. But I don't think any of us expected Toney Douglas or ...

Either someone put hallucinogens in my water or the Kings blew out the Bulls 121 to 79

Sactown Royalty — Also, Cole Aldrich might have killed a guy with a trident. The Bulls, even without Derrick Rose, Taj Gibson and Kirk Hinrich are a very talented team. They're currently fifth in the East and 4th in overall defensive efficiency. But this game was over almost before it began. Sacramento was short-handed itself with DeMarcus Cousins out with a left quad contusion. Patrick Patterson started in his place and set the tone early. Patterson scored 11 of his 14 points early to help get the Kings up by double digits early. Isaiah Thomas and Tyreke Evans carried it even farther, stroki...

Ailene Voisin: Studious Patterson fits in fast with his new team

Sacramento BeePatrick Patterson describes himself as a movie fanatic who – gasp – enjoys doing homework. He earned a college degree in three years, for instance, by cramming extra courses and summer semesters into his basketball schedule. His interests are global and eclectic, and include reading a good book, playing video games, dissecting 1980s game tapes and evaluating films nominated for Academy Awards.

What Are You Selling?

Sactown Royalty — I needed time to process Wednesday night's trade of Thomas Robinson, Francisco Garcia and Tyler Honeycutt to the Houston Rockets for Patrick Patterson, Toney Douglas and Cole Aldrich. I couldn't write coherently about it. Anyone who follows me on Twitter has a pretty good idea of how visceral my initial reaction was. But now that I've had some time to cool down, I still can't make sense of it. An old phrase in sports is that you're either selling wins or you're selling hope. It's been a long time since the Kings could be sold on wins. Kings fans have been buying hope for years. D...
