New York Knicks vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction, Picks & Odds | NBA Friday

NBA Finals Betting Preview: Knicks vs Spurs

The No. 3 seed New York Knicks (53-29, 22-19 away) face the No. 2 San Antonio Spurs (62-20, 32-8 at home) in Game 2 of the NBA Finals. New York leads the series 1-0.

We’re backing the Knicks at +6.5 in Game 2. New York has shown it can compete with the Spurs and we believe the Knicks can either win outright or keep the game close enough to cover the spread. With odds of -115 available, the underdogs offer plenty of appeal.

We expect a higher-quality offensive performance from both teams after a relatively low-scoring Game 1. New York's defensive game plan against Victor Wembanyama was effective in the series opener and we expect the Knicks to make life difficult for the Spurs' star once again.

We're also surprised to see such a generous spread given New York's recent form, especially considering the Knicks have covered this number in 15 consecutive games. With that in mind, we're sticking with the same approach as Game 1 and backing the Knicks against the spread.

The New York Knicks drew first blood in the NBA Finals two nights ago, defeating the San Antonio Spurs 105-95 at Frost Bank Center.

Jalen Brunson led the way for the Knicks with 30 points, while Karl-Anthony Towns added 18 points and 12 rebounds. OG Anunoby also made a strong contribution with 17 points. For the Spurs, Victor Wembanyama finished with 26 points and 12 rebounds, while Stephon Castle scored 17 points and Dylan Harper chipped in with 16.
