DENVER -- Remember the days when the second night of back-to-back games was pure hell for the Kings?

Well, those days are gone. As a matter of fact, it seems as if many of "those" days are gone.

Now, playing on the second night of a back-to-back has been pure sweetness for the Kings. They've had 11 back-to-back sequences this season and are actually more successful on the second night (8-3) than on the first (7-4).


That bodes well for the Kings, who along with Seattle and Philadelphia are tied for the second-most back-to-back sets scheduled this season with 22. Chicago, Cleveland, Golden State, Indiana and Portland all have 23 back-to-backs.
