This is a 10* O/U COAST-TO-COAST EXPRESS on the UNDER between the Sacramento Kings and the New York Knicks.
For a number of different reasons I expect this total to fall below the posted number once the final horn sounds. The visitors come to town without the services of DeMarcus Cousins and Darren Collison and face a Knicks team which will be seeking a third straight win tonight. New York is coming off back to back victories in a 121-115 double OT win over Detroit on Friday before a 103-98 victory over Toronto the following night: "I think this group really is embracing this opportunity to try and kind of build some cohesion and connection as a group despite the win-loss record," Knicks coach Derek Fisher said last night. New York has been brutal defensively all year but has looked much better over the small win skein in holding the Pistons and Raptors to a combined 26.7 percent shooting from 3-point range. And that doesn't bode well for the Kings, who open up this eight-game trip without their two best players: "It's a team that right now without DeMarcus and without Darren, you're kind of trying to figure out to plug in the holes, who's going to be responsible for what, who's going to fill in the holes," coach George Karl said. Also note that the Kings have dropped 15 of their last 17 on the road. Note that New York has seen the total go UNDER the number in four of six this year when playing with two days of rest, in four of six off an upset win as an underdog and in four of five after playing to three or more consecutive OVERS. And note that Sacramento has seen the total dip below the posted number in six of its last 11 overall. In my opinion, the situation, the numbers and the trends do all indeed point to the UNDER as the savvy move in this contest.
