The LA Lakers were supposed to cruise through the NBA Regular season on their way to another championship. They have Westbrook, LeBron, and Anthony Davis, which is a hard trio to match up with. Lebron still plays at a high level but misses a lot of games the past few years, and he will sit tonight. Davis is nursing an injury but will play, and Russell Westbrook is considered as not fitting well with this team. LA is 4-9 in their last 13 games, and their best bench player, Carmelo Anthony will be out tonight as well. The Knicks are on a 9-6 ATS run in their last 15, which includes a 5-1 ATS mark when the line is fewer than 4 points either way. I like New York in this one.
