Hawks at Knicks picks and predictions
Prediction
Hawks 119, Knicks 114
Moneyline
Give me the HAWKS (+105) on the road looking to end a 2-game losing skid. Once again, New York is undefeated at home this season, but the teams it’s beaten have a combined record of 6-17.
Against the spread
Considering that I took Atlanta to win outright, HAWKS +2 (-108) is where I’m going in this game. The trio of Young, G Dejounte Murray, and F John Collins should have plenty of success against the Knicks.
Over/Under
OVER 232.5 (-108) is the ideal wager in this game despite the Under being 4-1 in the last 5 meetings between these teams in New York. The Hawks have hit the Over in each of their last 5 games overall.
Meanwhile, the Knicks have hit the Over in 5 of their first 6 games this season.
