Marcus Camby hauled down 21 rebounds in Sunday's rout over Shaq and the Heat, his fifth game this season with 20 or more boards. The reigning Defensive Player of the Year leads the league in rebounds (14.7) and ranks second in blocks (3.3). |

With LeBron James (index finger) joining Larry Hughes and Donyell Marshall on their list of injured regulars, they had little chance last week in those losses at Toronto and Boston. The good news is that the King should be able to return soon to get them back on track. |

Chris Bosh's groin injury and the Jorge Garbajosa saga made for a difficult week. Bosh could return this week, but Garbajosa looks to be done for the season as he apparently needs another surgery on his leg. |

Is Jason Kidd's recent talk about playing in L.A. with Kobe or in Cleveland with LeBron a result of his disappointment over not getting a contract extension from the Nets? Maybe, but the veteran point guard continues to play like a future Hall of Famer. |

Phil Jackson said health issues -- not Kobe's future -- were his main concern before agreeing to that two-year, $24 million contract extension. With his team having dropped five of seven heading into a brutal stretch of the schedule, the Zen Master now has to show he's worth that kind of dough. |

They managed to hold up well without Jermaine O'Neal (knee), but they're glad to have him back. The five-time All-Star forward had 20 points and 15 rebounds as they won at the Clippers on Sunday to finish 3-1 on their Western road trip and make it six wins in their last nine games overall. |

So much for their moment in the NBA spotlight. They followed a rare top 10 appearance in these rankings by dropping four straight (Sixers, Hawks, Knicks, Pistons) last week. Now they head out on a five-game Western road trip, beginning Tuesday at the Clippers. |

Darko Milicic (thumb) returned to help them flatten the Timberwolves on Saturday for their third win in four games. Meanwhile, Juan Carlos Navarro has made a compelling case for his recent run of extended playing time by scoring in double figures in seven of his last nine games. |

Sac fans showed class by giving Adelman that standing O, but their Kings proved rude hosts as they added the Rockets to their list of elite home victims (Pistons, Spurs) this season. Now if they could figure out how to win a game away from Arco, they might be in business. |

Their revolving door of injuries continues to spin. Without Sam Cassell (strained left calf), they lost to the Pacers on Sunday to make it nine defeats in 11 games after that 4-0 start. Chris Kaman is their only player to start all 15 games. |
