Spread: New York Knicks -4.5

The Knicks played a few close games in the playoffs. Most of their results were decided within the individual digits. A 38-point game 6 against the Boston Celtics would have increased their morale. I won't make the spread big, but here take the project.

Karl-Anthony cities O 11.5 rebounds

The cities were all over the boards in the last series. In the series against the Celtics, he achieved an average of 12.7 RPG and scored 12 or more rebounds in four out of six games. While the Pacers can be much more efficient and reduce the chances of a defensive back rash, I still see how it goes over the brand.

A total of under 222.5

Both teams exceeded the 110+ brand on several occasions in the playoffs. However, I see a much more defensive fight in game 1.

Diploma

This is a rather risky SGP, considering that the two teams, the shape of the Pacers, with a high number of points. However, I see that the Knicks immediately dictate the terms and set a defensive tone that supports the spread, cities and the entire forecasts here.
