Kings beat the Pacers because Collison couldn't handle the ball against Fox in the last few possessions.  Two crucial turnovers in the last minute. 

That was a bummer.

I agree. Sac is much better than I thought they would be though. The west is just so balanced though. If Sac was in the east they might be battling for the last playoff slot.

Yes, that's correct, IMO.  They can do/should something about battling Indy in the standings.  Can't do anything about Sac so sprinkle some pixie dust and hope for the best.

Indiana was missing Oladipo and Sabonis had an offday and Sacramento won with only one point at home. Not that amazing.

From the Celtics' viewpoint it would be bad though if Otto Porter is going to be traded to them. His shooting and defense would help them a lot.

They don't need to be amazing to hurt our pick.  They're 11-11 and ESPN shows them with the 3rd hardest SOS so far.  They need to go on a long losing streak to put some buffer for when teams start tanking.

Dang I went to bed with the Pacers up 6 mid-way through the 4th, and thought they'd hold on  :(

That said, IND are missing Oladipo and so it's expected that they'll slip a bit.

The Kings play Phoenix, Cleveland, Indiana ( Without Oladipo?) and Chicago next.

I think they get a bunch of quality teams after that... I really can't see them making the playoffs...

Not worried about them making the playoffs but they are banking wins.  If they win 3 of the next 4, they'll be at 14 wins which is more than half of their projected 25 to 28 wins.

They're 11-11 and out of the playoffs but they're also only 1 game or less ahead of San Antonio, Utah, and Minnesota, all of whom I think are better teams who will win more games going forward.
