What to watch<\/h3>\n

1. Lineup changes
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Michael Malone will debut some new adjustments to his lineup and rotation. \u00a0After a 1-5 start to the season, the Kings head coach had seen enough. \u00a0He’s said that there won’t be any wholesale changes, but he does plan to use some different combinations of players on the floor. \u00a0Don’t be surprised to see a little more of Ben McLemore and Jimmer Fredette at the two and Luc Mbah a Moute finding time either at the three or four.<\/p>\n

2. Pace<\/strong><\/strong>
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Nets are one of the more veteran-laden teams in the league.\u00a0 Sacramento may need to turn up the speed and test the legs of veterans like Garnett, Pierce and Johnson.\u00a0 If this becomes a half court game, the Kings are in trouble.<\/p>\n

3. Will pride take over?<\/b>
\n<\/b><\/p>\n

After a thrilling win on opening night, the Kings have gone in the tank and lost five straight.\u00a0 This is game no. 2 of a five-game home stand.\u00a0 Sacramento needs to right the ship before the schedule gets much tougher in the month of December.\u00a0 Lineup changes may help correct some of the team’s shortcomings, but the Kings need to show some pride, especially on their home floor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
