True but 76ers are bad against Knicks. Last 10 h2h games Knicks 9 wins, 76ers only one.Last 10 @Philadelphia Knicks 8 wins, 76ers - 2.

Eprince · Answer

But Philly has been bad vs EVERYBODY in their last 10 matchups vs teams..... How anyone can trust their money with those Knicks jokers is beyond me.  No play is the best play.

TheFlashMoney · Answer

Just make no play.

Krisamons · Answer

The thing is that my bookie gives back the money if Knicks loses but Porzingis scores at least 20 points...Thats the reason why I keep betting on knicks. But Porzingis just had his little injury and he is struggling lately, cant count on him.

Anyways, I think Knicks should win tonight.

Rose is probably unhappy with Hornacek...But I hope that Rose will understand that it was not cool to disappear before the previous game and he will try to fix his mistake with a great game tonight and a lot of assists as Hornacek probably wants lol.

This should be a bounce back game for the Knicks. Carmelo will want to bounce back after that stupid technicals, KP will want to bounce back from that bad shooting other night, Rose will want to show that he is not dumb and useless.

76ers are not that bad lately but if Knicks cant win tonight, then they cant win anyone

Im off to get some more beer in my veins

GL! and GO Knicks!

As a lifelong, DIEHARD Knicks fan let me weight in:

The D-Rose AWOL situation was ridiculous,and really as a Knicks fan, we expect this type of drama.

As the gentleman above noted, you can't trust KP and the Knicks right now. Melo is banged up with a bad shoulder, but still recently had a big scoring night of 30, and has been racking up some assists.

This is the second game Melo has been ejected this year.

After his first ejection of the year, he followed it up with a big game.

The Knicks fan base, the real fans- a lot of them want us to TANK. We are just a couple games out of the playoffs...but also just the same amount back of the 8th draft pick.

With all that being said:

The Knicks have talent, they have the offensive scoring ABILITIES, but still the team does not mesh as well as it should on paper. The defensive issues are the biggest. The Knicks give up EASY baskets. The Knicks are 4-0 when KOQ starts. Noah is a shell of himself on D and overall, but still has his moments of production/effectiveness, but there are many times where the D does not even need to focus, does not focus on him.

Melo does not get the calls he was getting before in past seasons, IMHO. And he's frustrated overall.

The Knicks bench has guys who CAN be good, but it has been up and down. Hergangomez has been a BEAST in some games, but often gets a DNP. Ron Baker is probably better than Jennings for this team, but Jennings is the backup, and Baker is clearly a rookie trying to make it (but has had two games this year of extended minutes where he played well, until making some mistakes (one cost the Knicks a game, @ PHO.

-2 even on the road to Philly, seems like too good to be true. IMHO, the lines all year have been to bait people onto the Knicks.

The Knicks were -4 vs the Pelicans (maybe no one really knew D-Rose wasn't going to play, he was the starter 90 minutes before the game. I was surprised the Knicks were -4, even with Rose in the lineup. A-Davis KILLS the Knicks, as they have no big men that can contain him.

STILL I'm tempted to bet on the Knicks. But I will also say that I sometimes bet with my heart on the Knicks...when I do bet with my heart, I don't go big $

Also, a big contribution I can give to the people ever considering a Knicks bet, is to visit the REALGM Knicks forum, which is the most active NBA forum team on all of REALGM. The liveliness of this forum and the temperment of the Knicks fan base (these are big Knicks fans) will help one lean one way or the other sometimes.

I would also suggest boards like the Lakers on REALGM, Celtics, Raptors and a few other teams.

I wouldnt bet this game with monopoly $...I am a true Knick Homer..would be up over 5Gs the last 2 seasons if i would have just stayed away!

what would happen to one of us if we didnt show up for work??? no call? no text? just disappear? and now its all good...they are dysfunctional and its a shame... I hope Hornacek can get some winners back in NY.. No Play

the Rockets line looks a little funny, no ?

NONEED4LUCK · Answer

Yes rockets on B2B and 6th game in 10 days. I&#x27;m tempted to bang Minny 1st Q and 1st H as Rockets are a slow starting team, at least lately.

Krisamons · Answer

Funny? Funny how? Funny like a clown?This winning streak should end soon but not today...Rockets are 9-1 vs Timberwolves. To be honest, I did not notice that this is b2b game for them lol, Too late to think about it, I made a bet already

RonJon · Answer

NONEED4LUCK · Answer

I took Sixers &#x2B;2 in game. That&#x27;s why I would take 1st Q and 1st H.

SmartKnicksMan · Answer

Knicks look to want to win this one.  Sorry for those who took Sixers.Knicks should win this one.  I took Knicks at half $Took Knicks on a couple parlays also.  for the game though -2, and one ML

Krisamons · Answer

Agree but Knicks were &#x2B;17, now only &#x2B;5. When knicks were about &#x2B;15 I made a small bet on 76ers at 6.85, had to use that line.What a first Q Rose had. Rested and ready. 6 from 7 FG in the first Q &#x2B; 3 assists.
