San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks Prediction


The Knicks are going to be favored because they are the more complete team and 17-8 ATS on the season. The Spurs are also still working in Wembanyama, so you’re only getting 20 minutes or so. Still, I want the points with the Spurs, a young team that’s been rolling in this tournament and keeps finding ways to win. It’s almost like the Spurs are using this tournament as a chance to prove themselves to the rest of the league.

The money is also probably more important to them, as there’s a lot of guys still on smaller deals. Castle has been fantastic in his last few games, and the Spurs do turn things up a bit in the few minutes Wemby does play. The Spurs have outright won 8 of their last 12 games as an underdog. If the Spurs can beat the Thunder in this field, they have enough to win the whole thing. Give me the free bucket.

Randy Chambers's Pick: San Antonio Spurs +2.5
