The Knicks are 19-7 ATS in their last 26 road games and 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games overall. The Bulls are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 home games and 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games overall. The under is 6-1 in Knicks last 7 overall. The over is 3-0-1 in Bulls last 4 overall. The Knicks are 5-2 ATS in the last 7 meetings.

The Chicago Bulls probably should be favored at home, as you can argue they're the better team on paper. However, the Bulls keep losing games, and that includes a loss to these Knicks on Wednesday. The New York Knicks have won 5 straight games, and they're winning by an average of 15 points during that stretch. We're getting free points with the team that's in better form. I'll take it.
