Knicks at 76ers picks and predictions

Prediction

76ers 120, Knicks 113

Moneyline

PASS.

Philadelphia (-190) will take Game 3 and tie the series, but the juice is too expensive and not worth the risk.

One has to figure Embiid will play even though he is listed as doubtful on the injury report. New York's Robinson seems more doubtful as he was seen walking out of Game 3 in a walking boot.

Bet on the spread and/or total instead.

Against the spread

LEAN 76ERS -4.5 (-110).

Philadelphia covered the spread in 8 of its last 10 games, including the last 2 games of this series. Along with the Game 3 cover, the 76ers cashed as 4.5-point road underdogs in a 104-101 loss in Game 2.

This is only a lean because Embiid and the 76ers have been notoriously unreliable in the playoffs, so betting on them to cover here does come with some risk.

Over/Under

BET OVER 209.5 (-105).

The Over has hit in 3 of Philly's last 4 games, including its 1-point home victory (105-104) vs. the Miami Heat in the Play-In Tournament. The Over is 7-3 in the 76ers' last 10 games.

For New York, the Over is 8-2 in its last 10 games, including 7-1 in the last 8.

The Over is also 2-1 in this series.
