The Knicks are the right play this evening at home in New York over Yao Ming and the visiting Houston Rockets.
The Knicks (4-7) have been a bit of a surprise team thus far this season. They return home tonight with revenge from a 9-point loss suffered earlier this year at Houston.
Pacing New York on the offensive end are Jamal Crawford (16.9 ppg) and Quentin Richardson (16.1 ppg). David Lee leads the Kinickerbockers with 8.6 boards per contest. Houston has the strong tandem of Yao Ming (26.4 pts, 10.4 rebounds) and Tracy McGrady (19.4 pts, 6.1 assists).
With the Rockets (6-4) just 6-15-1 ATS in games after taking on the Pistons, look for New York to improve to 6-1 ATS at home in this series with same season revenge here tonight.
