The Sacramento Kings have had a poor season so far. They are the 13th seed in the Western Conference and are currently on a losing streak of 3 games. Other than that, they have only won 2 of their last 10 games. The record 24-44 speaks volumes about their struggle to find any sort of momentum. Either on the road or playing at home, this NBA season is a lost cause by the looks of it.

Speaking of lost causes, the New York Knicks are unfortunately another team with a worrisome record. With a record of 28-38, the Knicks are the 12th seed in the Eastern Conference. They have won just 3 out of their last 10 games and are currently on a 3 game win streak, but it seems grabbing as many points as possible is the only way they can end this season. The two teams met on March 7th, Monday night.

The Knicks struggled in the first quarter but found their touch after that. Going into the second half with a 15 point deficit, the Knicks turned things around with commanding performances in the 3rd and 4th quarters. They ended up winning 131-115 in the end. Other than the loss for the Kings, Sacramento fans were upset about one more incident which made the headlines.

Domantas Sabonis faces suspension

During the game, a technical foul was called against Domantas Sabonis late in the 4th quarter. Sabonis, unhappy with it, showed his disagreement with frustrated anguish towards the official. The referee did not see the altercation as fair and Sabonis was done for the game. Moreover, the NBA issued a statement informing that Sabonis’ punishment was beyond that game. 

Sabonis has now completed his suspension of one game when the Nuggets grabbed a win over the Kings on Wednesday night. But this one game ban did not sit well with the fans.

The fans on Twitter were fuming at the fact that the reaction from Sabonis and the altercation was not enough in any way to issue a ban. This is the incident that led to the outburst, an ejection, and a one-game suspension.

The referees have been subject to questioning over the fairness and the consistency of their decisions. The league has been intense and full of ups and downs. One thing that still lacks and is evident is consistency.

Many argue that the league has gone soft, but the truth of the matter is there won’t be this many out lashes from the fans or the players if there would be constant consistency. That is certainly something NBA has to work upon as the season is close to its conclusion.
