The newly crowned NBA Cup champions, the Knicks, defeated the Spurs 124-113 in Las Vegas. Two days after this resounding victory, they are back in Indiana to face the struggling Pacers.
New York fans will be thrilled to see a championship banner raised for the first time in over 50 years, since the last time in Knicks history. But Brunson himself said that, despite the victory, they will remain focused and keep moving forward. The Knicks' effort in the final against the Spurs was particularly strong from Karl-Anthony Towns, who, despite battling an injury, contributed 16 points and 11 rebounds.
Finally, each member of the Knicks will pocket more than half a million dollars for their NBA Cup triumph. In the betting odds, they climbed to fourth place as favorites to win the NBA, trailing only the Rockets, Nuggets, and Thunder.
They'll be four-point favorites to beat the Pacers on Thursday, with the Knicks being a perennial favorite to cover, boasting an 18-8-0 record in the betting odds.

Our Indiana Pacers vs New York Knicks Prediction
The Knicks and Pacers will play for the first time since their regular season matchup in May; Indiana has significantly changed from the team that placed second last year. They simply couldn't cope with losing Tyrese Haliburton for the entire season due to his Achilles injury. Furthermore, with a very low three-point field goal percentage, the Pacers have already lost 20 games this season.
The Pacers entered the game as a 10-point favorite to beat the Wizards but ended up losing to Washington 89-108, another disheartening defeat.
Our prediction for Pacers vs Knicks is: Knicks -4.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
