Kings' plan: Tonight's game vs. the Houston Rockets - Sacramento Bee

TONIGHT'S GAME

Kings (19-37) vs. Houston (30-25)

• Time: 6 p.m.

• Where: Power Balance Pavilion

• TV: CSNCA, NBATV

• Radio: KHTK (1140 AM) KAHI (950)

THREE KEYS

1. Test the middle: DeMarcus Cousins had 38 points against the Rockets last month. The Kings must test the Rockets to see if they have a better plan to slow Cousins.

2. Keep the ball: Turnovers are the easiest way for the Kings to blow a lead. That's what happened in the last meeting.

3. Win at the point: Isaiah Thomas is the catalyst for the offense. He must play well against the Rockets, who have been without starter Kyle Lowry.

• Don't repeat the same comment over and over. We heard you the first time.

• Do not use the commenting system for advertising. That's spam and it isn't allowed.
