DENVER -- This time, the Sacramento Kings enjoyed their trip to Denver. Isaiah Thomas scored 33 points, Rudy Gay had 32 and the Kings used 39 third-quarter points to race past the Nuggets 109-95 on Sunday night. DeMarcus Cousins added 27 points for the Kings, who snapped a nine-game losing streak to the Nuggets at the Pepsi Center. It was Sacramentos first win in Denver since a 118-115 victory on April 5, 2008. The Kings have won three of their last four games overall, including both ends of a back-to-back. "The third quarter kind of dictated the game," Thomas said. "We were getting stops and we got out and ran. Thats when were at our best, when were in transition. We were in attack mode. Rudy started it off, DeMarcus got easy buckets and I just got what they gave me. I was making open shots. We played a helluva third quarter." Randy Foye and Evan Fournier each scored 27 points for the slumping Nuggets, who lost for the seventh time in the last eight games. The Nuggets fell to 1-5 without leading scorer Ty Lawson, who missed a sixth game because of a fractured left rib. "We basically controlled the whole first half, did what we wanted to do, and then we came out and gave up 39 points in the third quarter. Thats unacceptable," Foye said after Denver managed just 18 points in the third. "Its tough, man. But weve got to stay together, weve got to keep fighting and keep believing; dont give in. Thats the main thing. Everybody goes through times like this during the season. Its important for us to continue to fight, to keep pushing." Down 58-51 after Foye hit a pair of 3-pointers in the third, the Kings responded with a 21-2 run that put them in front 72-60 with 4:55 left in the period. Gay scored nine points in the decisive stretch, including consecutive three-point plays. Cousins hit a couple of jumpers and Thomas twice connected from 3-point range, with Kenneth Farieds mid-range jumper accounting for Denvers only points during Sacramentos surge. "I wouldnt say it was the best quarter we put together all year but it was pretty good," Gay said. "We got back defensively, Fournier was hurting us in the first half, we got out and guarded him. They still hit a couple of tough shots but for the most part we attacked, got to the foul line and found the open man." The Kings carried an 87-70 lead into the fourth quarter. A 3-pointer by Wilson Chandler pulled the Nuggets to 94-84 with 6:41 left, but the Kings scored the next nine points, including another three-point play by Gay. The Nuggets opened a 13-point lead midway through the second quarter. Fournier connected on two 3-pointers and Jan Vesely, making his home debut after being acquired Thursday from Washington, broke through for a pair of dunks. Sacramento pulled to 52-48 at halftime, outscoring the Nuggets 8-1 in the last 2:10 of the second quarter, with Gay driving for a dunk to close the spurt. NOTES: Nuggets F Darrell Arthur missed the game after he strained his left hip during Fridays loss at Chicago. ... The Kings announced that Jason Terry, who was acquired from Brooklyn with Reggie Evans in exchange for Marcus Thornton, will miss the rest of the season so he can continue rehabilitating a knee injury. ... Sacramento has scored 100 or more points in three of its last four games. ... Gay surpassed 20 points for the third time in four games. ... Fourniers 27 points were a career high, surpassing his previous best by two. Atlanta Falcons Jerseys .That sight softened the blow of what ended up as a 4-3 shootout loss to the Colorado Avalanche on Thursday night.Knowing their teammate was fine after a scary headfirst fall in the opening minute of the game helped calm the Maple Leafs. Isaiah Oliver Falcons Jersey . Yup, he definitely needed this one. Craig homered twice and had three RBIs Wednesday night to lead the St. Louis Cardinals to a 7-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. Craig went 4 for 5 and Yadier Molina added three hits for the Cardinals, who salvaged the final game of a three-game set in hopes of staying within shouting distance of front-running Milwaukee in the NL Central. http://www.falconsrookiestore.com/Falcon...-Oliver-Jersey/. - Chris Davis hit a two-run double, scoring Nelson Cruz in his Orioles debut in Baltimores 9-7 win over to the Toronto Blue Jays on Saturday. Ito Smith Jersey . The third-ranked Buckeyes were down eight points to Notre Dame with less than 2 minutes to play and their offence was nowhere to be found. Justin Bethel Jersey . It was my fifth straight year attending and, as always, there are many interesting matters discussed as it pertains to the use of statistics in sports.PARIS - Despite their poor results at the Paris Masters, France captain Arnaud Clement is sticking with his regular players for the Davis Cup final against Switzerland.Clement has picked four players — Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, Richard Gasquet, Gael Monfils and Gilles Simon — for a training camp in Bordeaux ahead of the final from Nov. 21-23 in the northern city of Lille.He can still make changes to the team ahead of the final although Clement said its unlikely he will call up new players at the last minute.I think about other players too, but in my mind today, those who have a chance of going on court in Lille are the four players I mentioned, and I want to focus the preparation on them, Clement said at a news conference on Saturday.No French player advanced past the third round in Paris but the French captain is adamant he is not worried before hosting a formidable Swiss team led by the in-form Roger Federer and Stan Wawrinka.The players who had to stop because of injuries were able to play, Clement said. They played good matches, and that was a good thing. I believe this is positive. Now that they are reassured about their condition, they can focus on the Davis Cup. It is their main goal.Gasquet, who played a decisive part in Frances win over defending champion Czech Republic in the semifinals, lost in the second round in Paris and has won just three matches in his past four tournaments. Simons campaign was stopped immediately by Fernando Verdasco while Tsonga and Monfils bowed out in the third round, against Kei Nishikori and Novak Djokovic, respectively.ddddddddddddMonfils, who thought about pulling out from the event because of a knee injury, showed signs of improvement during a tight second set with Djokovic.Richard is extremely motivated by this Davis Cup. He has his mind set on it, Clement said. And I was very pleased with the level of Gael and Jo, also against players who are playing very well. They lost in the end, but I believe those matches were very interesting.France picked indoor clay to host Switzerland in a bid to thwart Federers quest for a first win in the team competition. With the best-of-five series scheduled five days after the ATP finals, the French team is betting that Wawrinka and Federer — who qualified for the year-end event — will struggle to adapt to clay, a surface on which both Tsonga and Gasquet have beaten the 17-time Grand Slam champion.Clement added that Julien Benneteau, who will also be playing at the O2 in London in the doubles tournament, could join his teammates in Bordeaux for the final days of the training camp from No. 10-16.The Davis Cup final will be held at the 27,000-capacity Pierre Mauroy Stadium, under a retractable roof. France is third on the list of all-time winners and bidding for a 10th title. Switzerland is looking for its first.Switzerland reached the final only once before, losing in 1992 against a United States team of Andre Agassi, Jim Courier, John McEnroe and Pete Sampras.
