This one takes on an inflated look because the Knicks were just incinerated by the Cavs by 36 points. If you've been watching, the Cavs have been doing that to almost everyone of late. Before that game the Knicks had only dropped four games by 10 or more on the season and at 8-10 are certainly a step better than last year’s version. The Hawks are a bit misleading having gotten out of the gate strong at 6-0, but have since floundered as a below .500 team at 5-6. The Hawks recorded two wins by 10+ in their 6-0 opening run, but since they have not been able to put any team away by more than 10 in their last 11 games. This one is inflated off the Knicks loss to the Cavs and the Hawks quick start and 6-1 home record. But they aren't winning big, so I'll back the Knicks here at the inflated price.
