The over is 6-1 in the Cavaliers' last seven home games vs. a team with a winning road record and 4-1 in the Knicks' last five games playing on two days of rest.

Bet on a higher-scoring showing from these squads in game two. In the first matchup, scoring came to a near standstill in the second quarter, as the teams combined for 41 points. Both shot under 45 percent from the field in the game, and the Knicks were 8-for-29 (27.6%) from three, while the Cavaliers were barely better at 10-for-31 (32.3%). A high turnover count from both squads didn't help with the offensive flow, either.

Jalen Brunson was in foul trouble in the first half, playing nine total minutes and scoring six points. He turned it on in the second half, scoring 21 to lead New York to victory. I don't expect him to be limited by foul trouble again tonight. This should be more back-and-forth, with Brunson and Cavs star Donovan Mitchell leading a faster-paced, higher-scoring affair. On March 31, New York and Cleveland combined for 246 points as Brunson scored 48 and Mitchell scored 42. Don't let game one distort your perspective, this isn't the 90's NBA.
