Best Bets for New York Knicks vs. Indiana Pacers

Full-Game Side Bet

Insiders Status:

Rating:

The Knicks and Pacers have won three of their last five games. New York has the edge offensively because they have played well on the road where they are scoring more than 113 points per game while making over 48 percent of their shots. They’ve also shot the ball well from long distance, making over 43 percent of their three-pointers. Their ball movement is very good, and they crashed the offensive glass in recent games, grabbing more than 11 offensive rebounds per game in their last three games, which will give them more scoring chances. The Pacers aren’t very good defensively and they’ve played worse at home where they are giving up more than 120 points per game, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Knicks.

The Pacers won’t be as successful offensively because their scoring average dropped in recent games, with the team scoring 111 points per game in their last three games. They don’t rebound the ball as well as the Knicks and won’t get a lot of second-chance points against them. They’ve also been careless with the ball, which will give the Knicks, who average more than seven steals per game, easy-scoring chances. The Knicks are playing very well defensively and held their last three opponents to 108 points per game, so expect them to keep Indiana’s offense in check. Go with New York to cover the spread.

Prediction: New York Knicks +2

Full-Game Total Pick

Insiders Status:

Rating:

The Knicks played under the total in two of their last three games while the Pacers played under the total in their last two games. New York averages 113.2 points per game on the road. They play at the slowest pace in the league, averaging 97.7 possessions per game, and they’re facing a team that is giving up 120.3 points per game at home, so expect them to hit their average. The Pacers average 122.3 points per game at home. They play at the eighth-fastest pace in the league, averaging 104.6 possessions per game, and they’re facing a team that is giving up 108.6 points per game, so don’t expect them to score enough points to push the score over the total. The Pacers and Knicks played under the total in four of their last six meetings.

Prediction: Under 229
