Atlanta at New York 7:00 ET
Hawks (+) over Knicks- As someone who grew up rooting for Frazier, DeBusschere, Reed, Monroe and Bradley and having to wait two generations for the Knicks to gain respectability it pains me to have to take this position. Atlanta and New York finished the season with the same record but the Knicks won tie-breakers and get the home court advantage and yet they aren't even given the usual 3-point home court advantage although there will be 13,000 rabbit fans allowed to attend. This doesn't feel right and the 'public' is pounding the Knicks. Win with the 'High-flying' HAWKS!
