Cleveland at New York

The New York Knicks have really struggled with their identity this season. They looked like a team on the edge of breaking through in the East a year ago, but they have become a group of malcontents that are simply going through the motions. New York lost just 10 times at the Garden last year and already have dropped 15 here this year. Cleveland won't get their attention here because they are a bad team, but the Cavs have played above the line in their last 29 games, so the effort is there. The Cavs have slowed things down to stay in games, and in the last four no team has scored more than 100 points. The Cavaliers have played hard after a double-digit loss as they are 4-1 ATS in their last five after having done so. The Knicks continue to be a train wreck at home where they are 8-17 ATS in their last 25. Cleveland is now 15-4 to the UNDER vs. the NBA Atlantic, and are 7-0 to the UNDER in their last seven in the Eastern Conference. The Knickerbockers sit at 6-2 to the UNDER in their last eight off an ATS win. Take Cleveland and play the UNDER.
