Premium Pick

New York is a big dog, but the Knicks are finally playing up to their talent, winning five of eight, including a 117-90 blowout win over Denver the last game. New York shot 56.5 percent from the field, and Carmelo Anthony led the way with 31 points despite sitting out the entire fourth quarter. The Knicks are 12-5 ATS following a win of more than 10 points and 29-14-2 ATS against the NBA Northwest division. New York has the offense to hang with anyone, and the Knicks have been far from a one-man show lately. The bench contributed 60 points versus the Nuggets, the reserves' second-highest total of the season. Oklahoma City is in a tough situational spot, home after playing seven of the last 10 on the road. They are on a 1-3 ATS run, and looked out of gas the last game, losing 103-102 at Orlando as 9.5 chalk. The Knicks are 5-2 ATS in the last seven meetings, and rank ninth in the NBA in points allowed, so grab the big dog. Play the New York Knicks.
