There was no way the NY Knicks were going to lose the the Sacramento Kings at World's Most Famous with everyone healthy and the "Bully" at the front of the lunch line right? Well 48 minutes and an Extra Frame of 5 minutes later the Kings get a 106-101 "W" as the Knicks get hit with "Jimmer It" Fever and former Kings Lottery Pick and BYU Cougar Alum Jimmer Fredette.
The damage from Forever Purple was all done well mostly done on the wings and from the guard spots as Fredette led the Kings with 24 points including 6 for 8 from Fredette Land which is anywhere over the time line. Kings Starters Isaiah Thomas ( 20 pts 7 asst), Rudy Gay (20 pts 7 rebs), and DeMarcus Cousins (19 pts 14 rebs) did the rest of the damage as the Kings had the MSG Faithful stunned beyond belief. To the Kings credit they just made the play or the shot when they had to.
The Knicks get 36 and 11 from the same Melo Time and the same 'Melo Channel. Tyson Chandler added 17 points and eleven boards as the only NYK Starters in double figures. S.T.A.T. goes semi-vintage with 20 and eight as he also had some Amare Stoudamire Moments with six turnovers as the Knicks just are awful no way else to slice it. Knicks Nation you need to NY Daily to tell you that! The loss of Iman Shumpert early also effected how the Knicks were going to play those Kings Guard and Rudy Gay and that was crucial to the outcome.
Kings move to 18-35 as the Knicks fall to 20-32 but still in the Atlantic Division Race believe it or not.
