Knicks O/U 40.5
If you want to bet one total in the NBA this year, bet the Knicks OVER 40.5.
Don't wait because it will go up to 40.5, possibly 41 and even 42.
At 40.5, it will GO OVER.
I can easily see the Knicks improving by 7/8 games compared to last year's 37 wins to finish anywhere between 43-45 wins and land an 8/7 spot in the playoffs where the balance of power is so incredibly top heavy it will leave tons of room for the Knicks to take games from the teams that were playoff teams last year and are now clearly worse: Nets/Pacers/Heat/Hawks(and their issues/distractions).
Even at that, I can assure you the Knicks will not get swept by the Cavs or the Bulls so add more wins for those teams.
Afraid of the new coach? Don't be. He's a conduit to one of the greatest ever in Phil Jackson.
Afraid of the Triangle offense being instituted? Yes, they will suffer their bumps and bruises but I promise you they will be better defensively (much better) which will offset the losses due to the new offense.
Afraid of bonehead JR. Don't be. His bullsh** won'[t be tolerated under the Fisher/Jackson coach/de facto coaching model.
Afraid of the roster changes? They kept the ONE guy that mattered and is the pulse of this team in Melo. He can score in truckloads and that is very important when you back a team like the Knicks.
Felton and Chandler leaving? That is addition by subtraction when it comes to these dogs.
This will NOT be a season of failure and last year's 37 wins was among the most miserable in franchise history given the expectations.
The expectation this year is the playoffs and although 40 wins will get you in, you will squeak in on the last days. That will not be the Knicks blueprint this year.
Therefore, the 40 wins will be exceeded and if they are, you win with the over. This is a very poor line. A challenging line would be 43/43.5 but not 40.5. Bad for them. Good for us.
Get it while it's hot because the total will rise.
The pick:
KNICKS OVER 40.5 wins
