NBA ROUNDUP Gay leads Kings past Trail Blazers By The Associated Press MailTribune.com By The Associated Press Posted Nov. 1, 2014 @ 12:07 am Updated Nov 1, 2014 at 12:08 AM By The Associated Press Posted Nov. 1, 2014 @ 12:07 am Updated Nov 1, 2014 at 12:08 AM » Social News SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Rudy Gay knew he could play better and turned the trick Friday night, treating his teammates and the fans to a superb all-around performance. Gay scored 40 points — one off his career high —including a pair of key 3-pointers, and the Sacramento Kings surprised the Portland Trail Blazers 103-94 on Friday night. “I haven’t had a good game this preseason and season and I just wanted to be aggressive,” Gay said. “I calmed down and tried to make plays better.” DeMarcus Cousins added 17 points and nine rebounds for the Kings, who rebounded from a sloppy season-opening loss to the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night. Darren Collison added 17 points, eight assists and eight rebounds. Omri Casspi had 10 points. “I was waiting for a game like that from Rudy,” Kings coach Michael Malone said. “To step up the way he did, getting to the foul line, was great.” LaMarcus Aldridge scored 22 points to lead the Trail Blazers, who were coming off a season-opening victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder. Damian Lillard added 20 points, while Wesley Matthews had 16 and Chris Kaman 12. An intentional foul call went against Nicolas Batum, putting Gay on the line. He converted both free throws and then added a 3-pointer on the ensuing possession to spark a Kings 13-0 run midway through the final period. “That was a big call,” Gay said. “The biggest part of that play was that I could jump out for the 3 because I had help.” Steve Blake and Matthews hit consecutive 3-pointers to start the fourth quarter and give the Trail Blazers a 77-73 lead. The Kings opened an 11-point lead midway through the third quarter, riding Gay’s torrid shooting. He sank his first five shots of the period, including the 3-pointer that gave the Kings their double-digit lead. “Sacramento did a great job of doing a lot of the dirty work,” Portland coach Terry Stotts said. “They got the loose balls and the rebounds.” The Kings also committed 10 turnovers, 17 fewer than they gave up against the Warriors. “It’s amazing what happens when you don’t beat yourself,” Malone said. “Our ball movement and execution was much better.” Portland eventually played its way back and tied the game at 71 entering the final quarter. CAVALIERS 114, BULLS 108, OT: LeBron James scored 36 points to lead Cleveland. James was at his best after struggling the previous night, scoring eight points in the extra period, and the Cavaliers picked up the win the after opening with a loss at home to New York. Derrick Rose scored 20 points for Chicago, but his first meaningful home game in about a year was spoiled by a sprained left ankle and a dominant performance by the Cavaliers’ megastar. SUNS 94, SPURS 89: At Phoenix, Isaiah Thomas scored 10 of his 23 points in the fourth quarter, rallying Phoenix with a relentless series of driving layups. Phoenix took its first lead when Thomas’ layup made it 88-87 with 3:34 to play. It was part of a 10-0 run that put the Suns up 92-87 on Markieff Morris’ dunk with 1:09 left. GRIZZLIES 97, PACERS 89: At Indianapolis, Zach Randolph scored 11 of his 22 points in the third quarter and added 13 rebounds to lead the Grizzlies. Marc Gasol had 20 points and six rebounds and Mike Conley added 17 points for the Grizzlies, who are 2-0 for just the third time in franchise history. They have a shot to open the season with three straight wins for the first time. CLIPPERS 118, LAKERS 111: At Los Angeles, Blake Griffin scored 39 points and went 11-for-12 from the free throw line, powering the Los Angeles Clippers to a gritty victory over the winless Lakers. DeAndre Jordan had 11 points and 13 rebounds during a foul-plagued 39 minutes. The two-time defending Pacific Division champions have won eight of nine against the Lakers (0-3) since the start of the 2012-13 campaign, including victories by margins of 36, 48 and 23 points in the final three meetings last season. BUCKS 93, 76ERS 81: At Milwaukee, O.J. Mayo scored 10 of his game-high 25 points in the fourth quarter, and rookie Jabari Parker had 11 points and 10 rebounds in his Milwaukee debut to lead the Bucks. Mayo’s 3 with 5:10 left put Milwaukee up 88-81. The veteran guard sparked a 7-0 run to start the fourth quarter with another 3.
