This is a 10* EAST-COAST EXPRESS on the New York Knicks.
A couple of cellar dwellers face off in the Big Apple on Friday night and only one will leave MSG with a victory; in my opinion, there are enough situational, motivational and strong trend based factors working in favor of the home side to indeed pull the trigger on the Knicks in this matchup. New York is now on the cusp of another 10-game losing streak, its second of the year. The Knicks are also in the midst of their longest home losing streak in franchise history. Now also throw in the fact that the Pistons beat New York in Detroit at the start of the season, and there's no question in my mind which of these two teams will be the "hungrier." This also sets up as a classic "letdown" spot for the suddenly over-achieving Pistons who have won three straight after Tuesday's 109-86 effort in Orlando. Here's a quote from Carmelo Anthony that you've never heard before: "I've never been 5-29," said Anthony yesterday. "It's getting testing not to get frustrated and it's tough to keep a smile on my face." As mentioned off the top, there are several strong ATS trends working in favor of New York here, the most pertinent being that Detroit is just 1-8 ATS this year when playing the role of favorite and only 5-9 ATS vs. teams with losing records. And note that the Knicks are 15-5 ATS in their last 20 after playing three or more consective road games. While I obviously feel that the outright win isn't out of the question, I will in the end recommend grabbing as many points as you can on NEW YORK.
