West notes: Bibby playing well, though Kings aren't
By David DuPree, USA TODAY
Mike Bibby is used to being overlooked. He's never been known to be a flashy player, never been in the All-Star Game and seldom is his name mentioned when the NBA's top shooters are discussed.

But the Sacramento Kings point guard is quietly having perhaps his best season, even though his performance has been overshadowed by his team's losing record and the recent hoopla over the Ron Artest-Peja Stojakovic trade.
Bibby is averaging a career-high 21.2 points a game. Over the last seven games, he has been a scoring machine, averaging 30.6 points, scoring 40 or more three times. More important, the Kings won four of those games.
"He's made big shot after big shot," coach Rick Adelman said. "With the injuries and everything else, Mike and Brad (Miller) have to be the two guys who are constant for us."
Bibby, though he handles the ball much of the time and is averaging 5.6 assists, is also one of the best in the league at moving without the basketball.
"When you think he's not in the play, he's in the play," the Orlando Magic's Jameer Nelson said after Bibby scored what was then his career-high 42 against them two weeks ago. "He's always moving."
Bibby set a new high Tuesday with 44 against the Philadelphia 76ers.
