It's Game 2 at MSG between the Knicks and the Pacers. We cashed the Pacers +6 in Game 1. I think the number is better in this game and I still like the Knicks to win this game, but I think both teams make adjustments. The Knicks are only playing seven players. They will not be able to keep up with Indiana's pace if this series goes deeper. New York plays the slowest pace in the league and they will have to play even slower if want to survive this series. Game 2 of the Knicks-Sixers series dropping in scoring as well from 215 in Game 1 to 205 in Game 2. These two teams didn't go over this number in Game 1 as they scored 104 in the first half and the game still soared over. The Knicks also allowed the Pacers to score 31 points in the 2nd quarter of Game 1. I don't expect them to allow another 30 point quarter in the first half here. In the NBA playoffs, full game totals of 220.5 of higher have gone under 66.9% (35-17-1) of the time since 2018. I don't think this game stays under with the first half going over. The Knicks defense will show up early. As a fan, I hope they don't fade late, but they will keep the pace slow and the shooting should come back to Earth on both sides.
