Toronto routed Detroit for its 14th win in 15 tries, while the Kings continue their struggles in Cleveland.
Kings planned to fire Karl, changed their mind

Mark J. Rebilas-USA TODAY SportsKarl’s future in Sacramento appeared numbered after the team’s latest blowout loss to Cleveland put them at 21-31 on the season. Plans were set in motion to fire Karl during the All-Star Break, according to Stein and others. Instead, the Kings will keep Karl and hope he can improve his relationship with the team’s players and repair the damage done.
Things have been rocky with Karl from the start. Cousins didn’t want Malone fired and there were rumors that the big man didn’t want Karl as head coach. The offseason brought rumblings of a feud between star and coach, as well as trade talks and an upset Ranadive. No deal ever came to fruition and Sacramento added some nice pieces in free agency, but things went off the rails early this season thanks in part to an injury to Cousins.

Poor Mozgov. The rim won this time, but you’ll get it next round.
