The New York Knicks will look to take a two-game advantage in their first round series with a win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night. Madison Square Garden was rocking on Saturday after the Knicks pulled through late to get the win despite 33 points from Philadelphia’s Tyrese Maxey. Miles McBride proved to be a key differentiator in that game, scoring 21 points off the bench. The Sixers’ loss was their first since March 29, a 9-game winning streak heading into the playoffs. Now amidst concerns Joel Embiid will not play after sustaining a tweak to his knee, which has caused him innumerous problems throughout his career, it suddenly feels as if Nick Nurse and Co. have their backs against the wall. Despite their franchises sharing storied histories, it may surprise readers to learn this is the first occasion the two have met in the postseason since 1989, a 3-0 sweep for the Knicks back when first round series were formatted best-of-5.

New York Knicks - Philadelphia 76ers Key Points

  1. The total has gone UNDER in 4 of New York's last 5 games vs Philadelphia

  4. De’Anthony Melton is OUT with a back injury

Our New York Knicks vs Philadelphia 76ers Prediction

A total of 208.5 precedes this second game of the series, which ultimately went over despite a sluggish pace thanks to a barrage of 3s by both teams late. New York likes to play slow and defensive intensity is always higher in a playoff atmosphere, so points should yet again come at a premium. The total has moved up to 209.5 in the sequel, a justified uptick considering the final total of the previous game but still a tad too high in our opinion. Our Philadelphia 76ers vs New York Knicks prediction: Under 209.5 (-110) at BetMGM.

Prediction:

 

Under 209.5
