The NBA Playoffs are heating up, and every game has something riding on it—momentum, pressure, and of course, money. As teams fight to stay alive or take control of their series, bettors are finding value in the trends. Whether you’re betting spreads or totals, reading the rhythm of the postseason is key to staying one step ahead of the books.
We went 1 for 2 yesterday.
✅ We covered with the New York Knicks (-4) in a dominant 111-94 win over the Indiana Pacers. Jalen Brunson led the way with 32 points, and Karl-Anthony Towns added 24 points and 13 rebounds despite battling a bruised knee.
❌ We missed on the over 223, as the final score just didn’t get there despite strong individual efforts. Still, a profitable day on the spread side—and we’re locked in for the weekend.
Let’s move to today’s top two picks:
Indiana Pacers -3.5 vs New York Knicks
The Pacers are strong at home, going 16-4 straight up in their last 20 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. They’re also 5-2 against the spread in their last 7 overall. The Knicks have been resilient, covering 7 of their last 9 on the road, but with Indiana fighting to close the series, we like them to get the job done here.
Knicks vs Pacers – Over 218.5 Total Points
The over has been a trend in this matchup: 4 of the last 5 games in Indiana between these two teams have gone over the total. With both teams playing aggressively and rotations tightening, we expect enough firepower to clear this number.
