With his teams season already in a dangerous downhill spiral, coach Dave Joerger is ready to make changes designed to get the Sacramento Kings steadily flying again.Hell see if they have any effect Sunday when Sacramento welcomes the Toronto Raptors, one of the few teams theyve beaten this season.A new starting lineup is expected on the floor for the Kings at Golden 1 Center. Joerger pointed to the switch Friday after the Kings (4-9) lost their fourth straight contest, a 121-115 decision to the Los Angeles Clippers that wasnt all that close. Sacramento trailed by as many as 26 points in the first half and 20 early in the fourth quarter.Ive seen enough. Joerger said after it was over. Were going to small.The Kings small lineup, featuring Ty Lawson and Darren Collision on the court at the same time as dual two point guards, nearly stole a win against the Clippers. They spurred a 29-11 blitz in the final quarter that put Sacramento only two down with two minutes to left.Forwards DeMarcus Cousins, Rudy Gay and Matt Barnes and guard Aaron Afflalo also were out on the floor as part of the small lineups the Kings used to make their run.DeMarcus is going to play center, Joerger said. I dont know who else will play with him. It just gives us more zip, more life, more experience. Thats not a detriment to anyone else of what theyve done.It does appear to be a reaction to the slow starts that have plagued the Kings during their longest losing streak since a five-game skid in March. The Kings allowed 40 points in the opening 12 minutes against Los Angeles, their worst defensive quarter of the season, and were down 16-6 almost immediately in a 110-105 loss Wednesday against San Antonio.I dont think were coming out with urgency, Cousins said after the loss to the Clippers. Once again, were waiting until the last minute to play with energy, a sense of urgency. ... If we dont play with urgency and energy at the beginning of the game, it wont matter what lineup we put out there.The Kings have used Cousins, Gay, Lawson, Afflalo and Kosta Koufos in the starting lineup in 11 of their 13 games, including in all four victories. But the presence of Cousins and Koufos in the middle has crowded the key and kept Lawson and Collison from having a lot of success driving the ball and kicking out.Koufos didnt play in the second half against the Clippers, and Lawson and Collison played with a faster pace.Toronto (7-5) also would prefer to get moving quickly and give its guards a chance to score. DeMar DeRozan, the NBAs leading scorer at 33 points per game, and Kyle Lowry (18.8 points, 7.3 assists) usually get Torontos offense started with drives to the key, and the Raptors are 5-2 when they combine for at least 50 points.DeRozan tallied 30 in Torontos 113-111 overtime victory in Denver on Friday, the 10th time in 12 contests he scored at least that many.Ive had a lot of help, DeRozan told reporters after the win. People have looked for me within the offense. Tonight it was JV (center Jonas Valanciunas) setting screens for me. When the defense packed it in on him, he got me the ball for shots.The Kings havent won since beating the Raptors 96-91 in Toronto on Nov. 6, and have defeated them three straight times. Gay had 23 against his former team in the first meeting. DeRozan scored only 23 in that one. Jason Williams Jersey . -- Jimmy Walkers first PGA Tour trophy came with a special gift tucked inside.

Chopping down the best athletes in Super Rugby will be the key to toppling the Hurricanes in next weeks succulent Super Rugby semi-final in Wellington.Thats the attitude of the two-time champion Chiefs, who joined their opponents in thumping a hapless South African side in the quarter-finals.The top-seeded Hurricanes whitewashed the Sharks 41-0 and will enjoy home advantage again.They dont face a second week of draining trans-Indian Ocean travel like the sixth-seeded Chiefs, who overwhelmed the Stormers 60-21 in Cape Town on Saturday (Sunday AEST) and will face a third game on the road if they reach the final.Chiefs coach Dave Rennie is downplaying the travel factor, saying it didnt enter his players psyches in Cape Town and he doesnt expect it to over the coming week.The priority will instead be countering a Hurricanes side who he says are leading the way in terms of strike power.Their ability to keep the ball alive, all of their back five in their forwards are dangerous ball carriers, Rennie said.Theyve got a hell of a lot of firepower so the key to beating them is to suppress a little bit of that. Thats a big chaallenge.ddddddddddddInjury rehabilitation will play a major part for both teams.Hurricanes captain and All Blacks hooker Dane Coles is in doubt after taking a painful blow to the ribs.The Chiefs lost inside centre Stephen Donald (shoulder) and co-captain Sam Cane (head knock) during the Stormers win and couldnt say how serious either injury is.Donalds absence could be countered by a likely return to fitness of two-Test All Blacks centre Seta Tamanivalu, who missed the quarter-final with a knee injury.All Blacks flanker Cane will undergo concussion tests, with results not likely to be known until after the team arrive in New Zealand on Tuesday morning.Michael Leitch has been out for two months with a dislocated thumb but the No.8 could be ready to play.If both Cane and Leitch are ruled out, Rennie will consider making another appeal to SANZAAR for dispensation to field All Blacks flanker Liam Messam, who was deemed ineligible for the quarter-final after playing just two games this season.
