LAst Night's Action: Clips Beat Kings without a Cassell

Clippers 116, Kings 109, 2OT - Down by 17 points, it looked like Los Angeles was about to give Sacramento their first win this year against a Pacific rival. Anybody seen Sam Cassell. Two overtimes later, the Clips pulled off a wild victory and send the Kings to 0-9 in the division. LA led the entire second overtime. Al Thornton led the game with 27, Chris Kaman had 17 points and 11 rebounds, and Dan Dickau scored a season high 20.

In unrelated news, Sacramento may change its name from cowtown to hoopsville.

Blackhawks 3, Ducks 0 - Against a goalie playing the first game of his career, Anaheim could only manage 19 shots and none of them hit the back of the net. The loss snapped a six game winning streak and was just the second in 13 games.
