Friday’s NBA Prediction
NEW YORK, NY (TheSpread) – The New York Knicks welcome the Big Three to Madison Square Garden on Friday night as they host the Miami Heat. Here is a breakdown of my pick for this game.
New York 16-10 on the season and 6-6 at home. The Knicks just had an 8-game winning streak snapped in a loss to Boston. Miami is 19-8 on the season and 7-5 on the road. The Heat have won 10-straight games.
Oddsmakers from online sportsbook Sportsbook.com have released their odds for this game and they have made the Heat a 5-point favorite on the road. The over/under total has been set at 210.5. Here are some trends to consider and my pick for tonight’s game:
Miami vs. New York, 7PM ET (View Matchup)
Miami is 4-0 against the spread in their last 4 games against the Knicks and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games in Miami. The two teams have combined to hit the over in 6 of their last 7 meetings. My pick is the Heat to keep going strong as the Knicks will come off an emotional letdown from an exciting game with Boston.
