San Antonio Spurs at New York Knicks Pick

The Spurs have been a perpetual top-team in the Western Conference whilst New York has been characterized as a team with wasted potential and exaggerated expectations. These narratives alone make San Antonio an enticing choice. However, if there is one thing we could deduce it is that the Knicks are not a team that should be given points at home given their portfolio at the World’s Most Famous Arena this season. Sure, the last Knicks outing on Christmas Day in New York resulted in a bitter defeat against the Philadelphia 76ers but previously the Knicks produced some eyebrow-raising results against Oklahoma City and Boston. As a result of those outcomes, they were likely overvalued heading into the aforementioned contest hosting Philly. However, now the opposite is true because they are hosting one of the blue bloods of the NBA. Take the points.
