Prediction
Cavaliers 106, Knicks 102
Moneyline (ML)
The CAVALIERS ( -121) are the way to go despite the fact the Knicks (+100) are coming off an impressive road win against the Indiana Pacers last time out.

Line/Against the Spread (ATS)
The CAVALIERS ( -1.5, -110) are a better play against the spread, as they simply need to win by a bucket. They'll be looking to avenge a 106-86 loss against the Knicks back on Jan. 20 when they were a bit shorthanded. They'll be healthier for this one, and you can expect a much better effort.
Over/Under (O/U)
The UNDER 216.5 ( -106) has connected in seven of the past nine games overall for the Knicks, including that last meeting with the Cavs Jan. 20. In fact, we saw a total of just 192 points in a game with a line of 222. The Under is also 3-0 in the past three on the road for New York. The Over is 6-0 in the past six for Cleveland, with its last under result against these Knicks. It won't be a defensive slog, but look for the total to slide Under.
