Does anyone else think this spread is low? If Carmelo plays then the Knicks should roll right past the Kings. They just beat a better team in the Suns at home without Carmelo and the Kings will be without Evans and possibly Cousins.

don't bet against the kings at home on friday nights.

(1) Melo and Felton out; team offense flows thru these 2; JKidd can get offense going, but is old and slow now. Team misses Shumpert here.
(2) Kings at Home, 4-1 SU/ATS with only loss off 4 game road trip (flat)
(3) Cousins is likely to play, though coach won't announce it until game time; BIG factor in Kings D and transition game.

I would play the Kings +points or don't risk it. Knicks are looking very iffy on this 3 game road trip (lose at LA, barely beat Phoenix, and now at the Kings).

Now that Carmelo is out, I think the line is fine. Knicks will still cover that spread though in my opinion.
