On the air: TV: Prime; Radio: 980, 1330.
Records: Kings 0-1before Friday's game, Clippers 2-0.
Record vs. Kings: 1-0.
Update: Not that the Clippers needed a new rival with the bad blood already overflowing in the Western Conference, but they may have found one after holding off the Kings' spirited comeback in a season-opening 111-104 victory. "I hate 'em," Sacramento center DeMarcus Cousins said. "Honestly, I do. I hate 'em."
That's fine with Clippers Coach Doc Rivers, a veteran of heated rivalries with the Boston Celtics and Detroit Pistons going back to his days as an All-Star point guard with Atlanta. "This is not the like business," Rivers said. "It really isn't. I've always laughed at that when someone says they don't like you or like you -- I don't care one way or the other -- my job is to beat you, period."
