Knicks will beat the Lakers today

The secret to anticipated national tv games is to always bet on the opposite of the obvious outcome and the narratives. 

The obvious is that the dominant Lakers are riding high and everyone expects them to beat the Knicks who just can't beat good teams at all, that's the storyline on them. And the line being only -3.5 is begging you to fall for the trap and take the Lakers. We've seen this a million times before. 

Knicks +136 to finally beat a good team on TNT. 

Lakers last 3 games were against bottom feeders……

just saying….

@LedZe

 That -3.5 getting me thinking also . Smell like a trap .. 

@LedZe

The entire NBA is a trap. 

Ok...

Could it be that LA beat NY already this season 1-0 in a 2 game series this year that's why this line is low? NY is 40-21, 3rd in east, it gotta mean something right? 6-4 in their last 10 games. I thought the line was just right. 

LA was dog vs Clips. LA was only -5 vs MIN. Is NY better than MIN? I think so. So I think the line is just right. or maybe just a point off? maybe -4 would have been a better opening line? But I think this line is just fine.

Lakers line been looking like a trap the past month yet they still win and cover maybe Vegas doesn't take them serious 

There's always a catch 

How did the Chiefs narratives work out for most of us last month hahaha 

Dont be afraid, Lakeshow for da biggest da largest  stacks hahaha 

What do you mean?? The narrative was that Chiefs would three-peat, Mahomes chasing Brady, etc and people didn't expect the eagles to beat them.

But odds actually told you that Eagles would indeed beat them. Same here. 

@masterkush

 Why are you only choosing a 3 game sample size?

Haven’t they been on a tear for more than that?

@LedZe

 Man this game was anyone's game really. Could have gone either way. If Jalen didn't get hurt I think they win the game. Still a good call man.
