Orlando at New York

Premium Pick

It has been rough going for both Orlando and the New York Knicks this season as each team enters this contest below .500. The season does take on a different look, however, when you look at the fact that New York is 11-5 SU/ATS at home on the season. Better than that, the Knicks are a perfect 8-0 SU/ATS as a home favorite this season with a winning margin of 9 points per game. Orlando has dropped two straight on the road, and one of those was an 11 point loss to this same Knicks team a few days before Christmas as a 5-point dog. The Knicks have been too good at home, and the line here simply is not reflecting that. Make the play on New York.
