NBA
GAME: San Antonio Spurs @ New York Knicks PICK: New York Knicks SPREAD PICK: San Antonio Spurs +1.5 OVER/UNDER PICK: Over 216.5 CONFIDENCE: Medium INJURY IMPACT: David Jones Garcia out for Spurs REASON: The Knicks are favored at home but this spread is razor thin at just 1.5 points, suggesting oddsmakers see this as essentially a pick'em game. While New York should win outright, San Antonio has been competitive on the road and getting points in what projects to be a close contest provides good value. Both teams have capable offensive units that should push this total over 216.5 in what could be a back-and-forth affair.
