Isiah Thomas, sadly, only visits once a year. It is key to make this count.

Actually, the Kings haven't dominated the Knicks in their (NYK's) recent woeful years. The teams traded road wins last season (with the Kings losing to an 0-5 Knicks team at home early on, and Mike Bibby going for 35 and 10 in NYC the same day Ron Artest became a King). When the Knicks visited Sacramento in 2005, it took a miracle game-winner for the Kings to get a victory in a game where three Sactown starters were named Maurice Evans, Matt Barnes, and Darius Songaila.

These Knicks seem to have life, too. Though the (straking?) Clippers throttled NYK on NYE, the Knicks have won 4 of 7. Not bad for an utterly horrible team.

Let's get to it.

I cannot believe the Kings are 10-point favorites against any team. I think it might be silly not to take the Knicks with that spread. The Kings are not this good at home (Saturday night, last Wednesday notwithstanding).

What's the time? It's time to inch back towards .500! Woohoo!
