Spurs at Knicks picks and predictions
Prediction
Knicks 118, Spurs 107
Moneyline
PASS.
There’s no reason to consider the moneyline here. The Knicks (-400) are far too favored to play, yet they should come out on top at home.
Against the spread
BET KNICKS -9.5 (-105).
New York has covered in 4 straight games and is 7-3 ATS over its last 10. During that span, it has been favored by at least 9 points 3 times, going 3-0 ATS. The Knicks have scored at least 133 points in 2 of thier last 3 games, so they certainly have the firepower to pull ahead.
The Spurs have covered 3 straight games. However, they’re 3-6 ATS over their last 9 games and 1-3 ATS in their last 4 as underdogs. They have scored 106 or fewer points in 2 of their last 4 games as well. Expect the home side to put on a show, and back KNICKS -9.5 (-105).
Over/Under
BET OVER 223.5 (-110).
The Knicks have scored at least 111 points in 6 of their last 9 games, going 5-4 O/U, and are 16-13 O/U on the season.
The Spurs have scored at least 113 points in 6 of their last 8 games, going 6-2 O/U, and are 16-13 O/U on the season. Considering the trends for both offenses, back OVER 223.5 (-110).
