KEY GAME INFORMATION

SACRAMENTO: BACKCOURT: PG Darren Collison replaces Rajon Rondo in the starting lineup, or at least he will after serving an eight-game suspension for domestic violence. PG Ty Lawson will sub in for him'if he can make it to the regular season without getting cut, that is. Maybe it will be PG Jordan Farmar? No one will blame SG Arron Afflalo for not putting forth full effort for this team, but SG Ben McLemore needs to prove he belongs in an NBA rotation. . . . FRONTCOURT: A happy, productive C DeMarcus Cousins is something of a mythical creature in Sacramento, but has been seen before. There's no reason to believe Cousins will be happy this year, though, and he's right not to be. SF Rudy Gay has expressed similar discontent, although it's fair to ask if he can be a part of a winning team anywhere. It would be nice to see C Willie Cauley-Stein have a more polished offensive game in his second season. . . . BOTTOM LINE: Lawson's preseason drama (in which he missed a team flight) is just the latest example of dysfunction for the Kings. It seems likely that Gay will be gone before the season's up, and wholly possible that Cousins will be, too.

BOSTON: BACKCOURT: It's hard to believe PG Isaiah Thomas was once a bench player for this team, as he proved himself to be the lifeblood of the Celtics offense in making the All-Star team last year. In SG Avery Bradley and PG Marcus Smart, Boston has two of the best defending guards in the league. If Smart can learn to shoot as well as Bradley, his ceiling goes up considerably. Second-year PG Terry Rozier took strides over the summer and will see minutes this season. . . . FRONTCOURT: While Danny Ainge couldn't quite lure KD to Boston, C Al Horford is by no means a consolation prize. He fits perfectly in the offense and instantly becomes the team's best player. SF Jae Crowder is the perfect mentor for rookie SF Jaylen Brown, as both are gritty defenders with the ability to put the ball in the basket. People seem to have forgotten about PF Kelly Olynyk, who's become a better offensive player every season. . . . BOTTOM LINE: The Celtics added a four-time All-Star and an NBA-ready rookie to a team that won 48 games last season. Throughout his career, Brad Stevens has led his teams to overachieve. It will be interesting to see what that means for a Boston team that's now loaded with talent.

PREVIEW

Cousins, Kings seek 1st win in Boston since 2007

DeMarcus Cousins will be on the floor at TD Garden Friday night, but it will be for the Sacramento Kings instead of the Boston Celtics.

Boston fans have had visions of the enigmatic big man dancing in their heads, hoping the never-ending talk of him coming to Boston as the final piece of the Celtics puzzle becomes reality.

Wednesday night in Philadelphia, Cousins, having a terrific season for the 7-11 Kings, did his best to mop the floor and make the game in Philadelphia playable. It was called off.

"I was trying to play," Cousins said, adding he'd "never seen the floor in conditions like that," and that "player safety should be considered first."

Cousins had reasons to want to play. First of all, it was a chance to face the lowly Sixers. Second, he's been on fire, coming off a loss at Washington where he had 36 points, 20 rebounds, four assists and two steals.

He is averaging 28.7 points, 10.4 rebounds and three assists per game and, over the last three, Cousins has a 35.3 scoring average while grabbing 13.3 rebounds per game.

While Al Horford has added a big body to the Boston attack, he is not the inside presence that can deter a big body like Cousins.

On Wednesday night, Detroit big man Andre Drummond scored 20 points and hauled down 17 rebounds and the Pistons outboarded the Celtics 50-33 in their second road win in as many nights.

The Pistons were on fire all night and came within one Ish Smith point of having all five starters score 20 points in the game.

"I think we have to get a little more nastier on the defensive end," offered Boston's Jae Crowder after Wednesday's loss. "Not let a team come in and get comfortable. It has not been an ongoing thing. It happened today and it happened a couple games but, for the most part, we've been trying to impose our will first. That's what our mindset is and that's the mindset going forward."

Celtics guard Isaiah Thomas, selected by the Kings as the last pick of the 2011 draft, scored 27 points Wednesday night and is having an outstanding season, averaging 26.1 points and 6.3 assists.

The key to Boston's offense, Thomas has taken at least 20 shots in each of the last six games and is shooting 39 percent (17-for-52) from 3-point range.

The Celtics won both games against Sacramento and have beaten the Kings eight straight times at TD Garden -- dating to the last Sacramento on victory Jan. 19, 2007.

Horford, who has missed 10 games already this season -- nine with a concussion and then Monday night's win at Miami for the birth of his second child -- only shot the ball five times Wednesday night, a number way too low for this team to succeed.

"That's the first thing I saw when I looked at the stat sheet," said Celtics coach Brad Stevens. "It's not enough. I know that. So we need to do a better job of making sure we put him in position to be successful."
