Brooklyn then went on a 14-2 run to cut the deficit to 99-93.I think for the most part (it) woke people up, Kilpatrick said. I was kind of out of it once that happened. My mindset changed completely. At the end of the day we should react like that a lot more, especially if we want to win in this league. Like I said before, just got to come out with some type of edge.However, Sacramento responded with a 16-0 run of its own to extend the lead to 115-93.I was scared for a second because I think they went on a 13-2 run and I was just like, `Man, did I just cost the team the game? Barnes said. So I was a little nervous, but we regained focus and went on a run of our own and closed the game out strong.Everything went Sacramentos way in the third quarter, including a lob attempt from Barnes that went in off the backboard for a 3-pointer with 4:03 remaining.

Im a big believer in the D-League. Ive seen it help so many guys, coach Kenny Atkinson said. I remember Jeremy (Lin) when we were with the Knicks and him going down to the D-League and kind of having a big game and coming back. There are many instances of that and it helps guys confidence.CENTERS SHOOTING 3S A TREND?Sure, because I think it opens up more space, Atkinson said. I think it just gives teams more room to operate and brings more variety to the offense. Youre not just defending one thing. Now youve got to defend DeMarcus Cousins post-ups, his isolations and now hes popping to the 3-point line, so its challenge. I think youll see more and more of it. Its definitely a trend.UP NEXTKings: Visit Washington on Monday, the second stop on their six-game trip.Nets: Host the Clippers on Tuesday.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- It has been nearly two years since Tyler Skaggs started a major league game for the Los Angeles Angels.Skaggs, who starts Tuesday against the Kansas City Royals, last appeared on a major league mound on July 31, 2014 at Baltimore.Skaggs underwent season-ending left elbow surgery after that and then had a setback this season with shoulder tendinitis.His two phenomenal recent starts with Triple-A Salt Lake earned Skaggs a promotion to the majors. He went 2-0, allowing two hits in 12 2/3 innings, while striking out 26 and walking three in winning at Omaha and Iowa. The 14 strikeouts against Omaha equaled a Bees record for a game, held by Jered Weaver.It feels good to be back up here, Skaggs said. My teammates gave me a lot of love when I came back. Im excited about tomorrow. I know Im going to be nervous, very nervous. At the same time, Im going to tell myself Ive been here before. Ive pitched in this stadium before, the (2012) Futures Game. Just take it slow out there, deep breaths.Skaggs went 3-2 with a 1.60 ERA in nine starts with three different minor league clubs. He allowed 26 hits and struck out 53 in 39 1/3 innings.Its a big game for me, Skaggs said. Ive put in a lot of hard work to get here. The work is not done. I dont want to just be here. I want to stay here.Skaggs, who turned 25 on July 13, was 5-5 with a 4.30 ERA in 18 starts in 2014 with the Angels before the Tommy John surgery.Ive been through so much the past ffew years; Im going to take it day-by-day.dddddddddddd Theres nothing much I could do about it. Youve got to trust the process. Dont get me wrong. I was excited, but I think it was a good experience for me and a humbling experience to go down to Triple-A to kind of figure things out.I wouldnt say Im a different pitcher. I would say Im bigger and stronger. Ive had a lot of time to refine my mechanics and learn more about myself than anything. How my body moves. What I need to do to get ready. My whole pregame routine is more at-depth now. I feel like Im a whole lot more athletic on the mound than I used to be.Ive done a lot of things mechanically to correct myself. I went back to my old mechanics of going over my head. I looked at some spring training video and I wasnt doing that. I went back to going back to old school. Its helped me a lot. Ive always thrown like that since I was 12.The Royals will counter with Dillon Gee, who will be making his first start since July 10. He pitched 5 1/3 innings in relief on July against Cleveland, allowing three runs.The Royals could wind up sellers instead of buyers at the trading deadline. They are 6-14 in July and are quickly fading out of postseason contention.I dont really worry about it right now, Royals manager Ned Yost said. Thats not on my mind. My mind is on the Angels. ' ' '
