TONIGHT'S GAME
Kings (10-18) at Knicks (14-15)
• Time: 4:30 p.m.
• Where: Madison Square Garden, New York
• TV: CSNCA
• Radio: KHTK (1140), KAHI (950)
THREE KEYS
• 1. Watch the lane: The Kings need to keep Knicks point guard Jeremy Lin out of the paint and force him to take jump shots and create without breaking down the defense off the dribble.
• 2. Stay aware: Tyson Chandler and Amar'e Stoudemire will look for easy baskets on pick-and-rolls. The Kings must play physically and not allow either an easy path to the rim.
• 3. Backcourt production: During their six-game winning streak, the Knicks have given up some big scoring nights to opposing guards. Tyreke Evans and Marcus Thornton have to play well to give the Kings a chance to win.

Here are some rules of the road:
• Keep your comments civil. Don't insult one another or the subjects of our articles. If you think a comment violates our guidelines click the "Report Abuse" link to notify the moderators. Responding to the comment will only encourage bad behavior.
• Don't use profanities, vulgarities or hate speech. This is a general interest news site. Sometimes, there are children present. Don't say anything in a way you wouldn't want your own child to hear.
• Do not attack other users; focus your comments on issues, not individuals.
• Stay on topic. Only post comments relevant to the article at hand.
• Do not copy and paste outside material into the comment box.
• Don't repeat the same comment over and over. We heard you the first time.
• Do not use the commenting system for advertising. That's spam and it isn't allowed.
