2004–05 Sacramento Kings season

The 2004–05 NBA season was the Kings' 56th season in the National Basketball Association, and their 20th season in Sacramento.[1] The Kings struggled losing four of their first five games, but would then win 12 of their next 13 games. However, as the season progressed, the Kings would trade away their top players. Doug Christie was traded to the Orlando Magic for Cuttino Mobley in January, and All-Star forward Chris Webber was dealt to the Philadelphia 76ers for Kenny Thomas and former Kings' forward Corliss Williamson in February.[2] Still, the Kings managed to finish second in the Pacific Division with a solid 50–32 record, clinching a sixth spot in the Western Conference. However, in the playoffs, the Kings failed to make it out of the first round, losing to the Seattle SuperSonics in five games. Following the season, Mobley signed as a free agent with the Los Angeles Clippers, and Bobby Jackson was traded to the Memphis Grizzlies.
