Indiana at New York

New York misses injured Julius Randle, but Josh Hart has stepped up to take his place in the starting lineup and the Knicks used contributions from several players to defeat Philadelphia in six games in the first round. All five New York starters scored in double figures in Game 6 with Jalen Brunson leading the way with 41 points and the Knicks came out focused defensively and jumped out to a 36-22 first-quarter lead. The last two regular season meetings with Indiana went UNDER the total and the Knicks are 41-22 UNDER in the first half their past 63 games. The Pacers are 25-9 UNDER for the game their past 34 road contests and they are 1-6-1 ATS their past eight as playoff road underdogs. New York ended the regular season No. 2 in the NBA in scoring defense. Take the Knicks for the game as a Max Play and the first half UNDER as a Max Play.
