New York Knicks vs Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction
The Knicks aren’t the same team on the road as they are at home. It’s where they’ve lost 17 of their 26 games. However, the Thunder are 34-39-1 ATS on the season. I’ve said it all season, but OKC isn’t the cash cow it’s been in past years. Since February 27, the Thunder are 3-8 ATS when favorites of 5 or more points. Also, if the Knicks are legit title contenders, you’d think they’d want to convince themselves by putting together a strong showing here. The Knicks have come up small a lot in big moments, especially when taking them out of MSG. Either way, give me the points, as I’ll keep fading the Thunder in the big favorite role.
