4* Knicks/Mavs NBA Hardwood ATS Smash: Knicks -2.5

I don't know if oddsmakers don't want to except the fact that the Knicks are a legit team or if they just like giving money away. Either way I'm jumping on board this freight train while they are still undervalued.

Normally I would look to avoid taking a team in the second game of a back-to-back road set, but New York was able to rest their starters in last night's 22-point win over the Hornets. What really makes this a solid play is we basically just need the Knicks to win outright to cover the spread. That shouldn't be too difficult a task considering the Mavericks have lost five of their last seven games overall.

Adding even more value to this play is the fact that the Knicks are a perfect 8-0 ATS after 2 straight wins by double-digits over the last two seasons. BET THE KNICKS!
