No. 7 seed Philadelphia hasn't been a great road team and failed to win or cover Game 1, a 111-104 defeat. Joel Embiid put up some decent numbers but is still not all the way back after missing nearly two months following February meniscus surgery. NBA road dogs like the 76ers in Game 2 of a playoff game are 9-31 ATS. No. 2 seed New York took the first game with a whopping 55-33 edge on the glass, including 23 offensive rebounds. In addition, the New York bench outscored the Philadelphia reserves by a huge margin, 42-7. The Knicks are 80-60 ATS versus teams that allow 46% shooting or higher, 29-18 ATS as a favorite, and 28-14 ATS when playing six or fewer games in 14 days. Play New York as my Game of the Month.
