New York at Denver

New York had won four straight before losing 121-106 at Utah on Saturday as the Knicks had an off-shooting night, hitting just 39 percent and missing 34 of 51 3-point tries, while Utah shot 51 percent and hit 19 of 34 from beyond the arc. The Knicks may have been looking ahead to this game against the Nuggets, who have lost three of five, although they are in a likely letdown spot after a big victory over the Lakers on Saturday. Denver is just 3-5-1 ATS in its past nine games and 0-5 ATS in its past five Monday games. New York stayed UNDER against the Jazz even while allowing a high shooting percentage, but we can expect the Knicks to bounce back defensively as they allow 112.5 points per game while Denver allows 114.8 points. The Nuggets went UNDER against the Lakers by seven points. Take the points with the Knicks and the UNDER.
