- New York Knicks are 5-2-0 ATS in their last 7 games as a betting underdog
- The Under has cashed in each of the last 3 meetings

- New York Knicks lead this NBA Playoffs series 3-2
- New York Knicks won 121-91 when the two teams last met on May 14
New York Knicks Form
New York head back out on the road with an opportunity to clinch the series after regaining the lead in Game 5.
The Knicks, who went 50-32 in the regular season, took six games to get past Philadelphia in the first round.
After taking a 2-0 series lead, they bounced back from a 125-114 defeat in Philadelphia with a 97-92 win, and then rebounded from a 112-106 defeat with a 118-115 victory to wrap things up.
New York got off to an ideal start in this series too as they won the first two games against Indiana, 121-117 and 130-121.
The Knicks were pegged back on the road as they lost 111-106 and 121-89, but they regained the lead at home with a 121-91 victory in Game 5.
Indiana Pacers Form
Indiana return home knowing that a defeat to New York on Friday night will bring an end to their series.
The Pacers, who went 47-35 in the regular season, progressed from the first round with a 4-2 series in over Milwaukee.
They bounced back from a series-opening loss with 125-108, 121-118 and 126-113 wins, and then rebounded from a 115-92 defeat with a series-clinching 120-98 victory at home.
Indiana failed to follow up that victory in the first two games of this series, as they were beaten 121-117 and 130-121 in New York.
The Pacers responded at home, winning 111-106 and 121-89 to knot up the series, but they once again failed to win in New York, this time losing 121-91 in Game 5.
Verdict
New York are winless in Indiana this season, but they have been a reliable spread bet in recent games.
They have covered in three of the last four and always make for a tempting underdog, so give us the Knicks and the points in Game 5.
