Indiana at New York

Premium Pick

The New York Knicks have run the table in their last six, but they are not going to make the playoffs at five games out of the #8 slot with just 15 to go. The fact is that all six of those teams the Knicks handled were .500 or less, and in the Knicks' last 11 games vs. a team with a winning record, they are a woeful 0-11 straight-up! Despite the winning streak, this is not a good spot for the Knicks as they have beat up on the softer teams, but have done nothing against the good ones. The Pacers have now removed themselves from the poor play that led to four straight losses for the first time this season, replacing them with four straight wins. The Knicks are not a threat here, and Indiana has gotten back to playing strong basketball. Play Indiana to get the outright win.
