SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- After struggling in the first few weeks of the season to find their patented offensive rhythm, the San Antonio Spurs are once again making it miserable for opposing teams.Pau Gasol had 24 points and nine rebounds to lead a balanced offense for the Spurs in a 110-105 victory over the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday night.LaMarcus Aldridge scored 21 points and Kawhi Leonard added 20 for the Spurs, who won their fourth straight and improved to 6-0 on the road this season. Tony Parker had 14 points and seven rebounds.We didnt have that level of awareness and we werent moving the ball as much as we should have been early in the season, Gasol said. Were at our best when were moving the ball, creating an energy and flow that carries over to the defensive end. Thats been the staple of this team for so long.Sharing the basketball and frequently finding the open man for a good look, the Spurs had a season-high 29 assists and shot 49 percent. San Antonio has recorded 20 or more assists during its winning streak.Perhaps its no coincidence the winning streak has taken place after Parker returned from a sore right knee that caused the veteran point guard to miss three straight games. He was directing the offense against the Kings and frequently finding an open teammate.The key for us is moving the ball and making sure everyone is involved offensively, Parker said. The last four games were really been finding our rhythm. We have a lot of weapons.An offseason free-agent signing, Gasol is definitely one of those options. The crafty veteran center scored nine points in the opening quarter and had 16 by halftime, helping the Spurs take a 57-46 lead at the break.Its not something I try to do, I just take the shots when they come to me, said Gasol, who shot 10 for 17. Teammates found me early tonight and I was able to be effective.DeMarcus Cousins had 26 points, 17 rebounds and six assists for the Kings, who dropped their third straight game. Matt Barnes had 15 points and Ben McLemore, Willie Cauley-Stein and Rudy Gay each added 11.Were making it hard on ourselves right now, Cousins said. We gotta come out with better energy and a better effort. Its on us if we want to turn this around. Its nobodys fault but ours.Guarded much of the game by Leonard, Gay shot just 3 for 11 after entering the game averaging 22.3 points.The Spurs took the lead for good in the second quarter and led by as many as 18 points before going to the reserves late in the fourth quarter.The Kings eventually cut the lead to four points on Cousins two free throws with 8.7 seconds remaining. However, Davis Bertans made a free throw and the Kings missed two shots to end the game.TIP INSSpurs: Danny Green was back in the starting lineup despite a groin injury Monday against Miami.

The Kings had 17 turnovers that resulted in 16 Spurs points.POPOVICH STILL ANGERED BY ELECTIONSpurs coach Gregg Popovich has been an outspoken critic of President-elect Donald Trump. He has spoken openly about his feelings on the election and held nothing back again in a pregame interview.Somebody asked me and I told the truth of what I felt. I still feel the same way, Popovich said. Its still a disorienting situation when you thought you lived in a certain kind of country with certain values and find out those values arent important to half the country.I thought with all the divisiveness in the election, all the groups that President-elect Trump disparaged the best way to start was not to worry about Obamacare or talk about Wall Street or anything else. But that didnt happen. That was my hope.UP NEXTSpurs: At the Los Angeles Lakers on Friday night.Kings: Host the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday night.

Two years ago, the Angels ranked 15th in the Ultimate Standings. Last year, they fell to 28th. This year, theyve fallen to 56th. Mike Trout was MVP-caliber yet again, but starting pitchers Garrett Richards, Andrew Heaney and Nick Tropeano combined for just 20 starts after suffering season-ending injuries, and the team was never in the playoff hunt.Whats goodWell, the fans love Trout, and he helped the Angels finish 41st in players, though thats a drop of 10 spots from last year. But Los Angeles is a star-driven city, and the Angels lack stars; even Albert Pujols, who drove in more than 100 runs, is a shell of the superstar performer he was with the Cardinals. He had an OPS over 1.000 eight times with St. Louis but has been under .800 each of the past four seasons with the Angels. The Angels continue to score well in affoordability (even in L.ddddddddddddA., their average ticket is less than $2 more than league average), but that still dropped 26 spots.Whats badHas Mike Scioscia worn out his welcome? Hes the longest-tenured manager in the majors, having been with the team since 2000 (the second-longest is Bruce Bochy, who took over the Giants seven years later). But Scioscia ranks just 73rd this year, down 32 spots. However, he isnt going anywhere. Hes signed through 2018, and after he won a power struggle with former GM Jerry Dipoto last year, owner Arte Moreno (who had the Angels worst ranking, ownership at 80th) will stick with him.Whats newThe Angels dropped 45 spots in stadium experience, with a similar drop in bang for the buck, but fans might be taking their frustrations about on-field performance out on the stadium. Not only was it the franchises worst season since 1999, but it just wasnt an interesting team. Yes, the Angels draw from a large population base, but it would seem the 3 million attendance figure speaks to a pretty good stadium experience, complete with reasonable prices ($10 parking in L.A.!). The fans want to see a winning team.Next: Houston Astros?| Full rankings ' ' '
