The very protective company line holds that very little has changed. No radical shifts, Kings coach Paul Westphal says. Kevin Martin moves toward wrist surgery, Beno Udrih slips into the starting backcourt, but Tyreke Evans remains the point guard. Not so fast. If not exactly a radical shift, there's some subtle shuffling going on. Evans thinks Udrih is the new point guard. Udrih thinks Udrih is the...
