The Knicks are getting better, and you saw that against the Celtics last week when they came so close. I think this roster will make some noise in 2023-24, and today tips the first of a two-game set vs. Cleveland, with a follow-up game at the Garden tomorrow night. The Cavs won their opener in Brooklyn, and then mysteriously disappeared at home losing back-to-back games against the Thunder and Pacers. The defense has not played strong and opponents are shooting nearly 50% against them. Lay the points with the Knicks.
