Teams traveling coast to coast aren't supposed to gain in ATS value. Yet the Kings won outright against the Nets, pushed against the Wizards, and covered by a point against the Celtics. The Knicks have won consecutive games against the Timberwolves to push themselves back above .500. So why is this line so small? A season ago, the Kings swept the Knicks. The fact that the Knicks have added better pieces does not mask the issues they still have defensively. Even minus Rajon Rondo, the Kings have the balance to cause the Knicks problems once again.
