Knicks all day in this one, being that Atlanta just played the Pistons last night (we cashed Atlanta -5.5 by the way) but a Knicks team heading into town bringing a much better defense to face the fast paced ATL team is a concern that helps me to lay money here. Knicks are an Under team, a defensive unit that is allowing the second best avg of points per game to teams (only 102!) But that's a sacrifice to games where they struggle to contend in the scoring department (vs teams like Boston and Milwaukee). But having the ability to slow down teams like Atlanta and force them into a methodical pace while dominating the rebounding category (top 6 in offensive and defensive rebounding) should make things easy on the Knicks. Finally, a superstar for each team is questionable to play (Tre Young questionable from a personal issue / RJ Barrett questionable because of a migraine headache). If either player is likely to play, I'd bank on RJ Barrett and that will only boost this total. Knicks have already beat the Hawks in Atlanta this season too 126-120. Knicks are 4-1 in the last 5 matches vs ATL in ATL. That's pretty wild.
