Point Spread: -4.50 | -115.00 New York (Home)
Result: Loss
I like the Knicks here in Game 1 of their second round series against the Heat.
Miami clearly overachieved in Round 1 vs. Milwaukee. Giannis Antetokounmpo missed a couple games vs. the Bucks, but more notably the Heat averaged 124 points/game in the series, a double digit increase over what they averaged in the regular season. I expect some offensive regression from the visitors on Sunday.
New York just held Cleveland to an average of 94.2 points/game in the first round series. That’s a tremendous defensive effort.
The Knicks have covered 24 of their last 35 games overall. The Heat are still only 19-25 SU and 18-26 ATS on the road this season.
Just don’t think this spread is large enough. Miami comes in short-handed as both Herro and Oladipo have been lost for the season. The Knicks are at full strength. 10*
