The set-up: I think this is a great spot to pull the trigger on the Knicks. New York has covered in three of its last four games and gone 2-2 SU in that span. Last time out it fell 117-112 at Brooklyn. If you sleep on the Knicks this year, Julius Randle and company are going to burn you. New York plays with revenge after falling 109-89 to Philly on December 26th, but the Knicks have made big strides since then. And with a game at home against Orlando on Thursday, New York has nothing to look past to in this revenge spot.

The pick: Philly continues to do well without big man Joel Embiid in the line-up, as it's won and covered in three straight since the break. But with a game at home tomorrow night vs. the surging Bucks, this absolutely sets up as a "look ahead" spot for the home side. This is a classic "trap" for Philly here and I expect it to fall in. Grab the points.

This is an 8* DESTRUCTION on the Knicks.
