I'd say the Knicks are -3.5 point favorites with an O/U at 208.5 if there were a game.
Who you all taking?
I'm a little hesitant at backing OKC since they would've just played at Dallas and it would likely be a difficult game to travel to NY on if they had lost. However I think this game would've ended up being really close if it was played and I think NY could lose in the closing minutes as they aren't quite as good as closing games as OKC in general. Obviously Durant is a little more skilled than Melo, especially with consistency shooting - and I think the only way NY can play this close is to try to limit Durant and double-team him often. This is why I would think the game goes UNDER 208.5. Honestly, more often than not this game would likely go over. However early season rust and the possibility of not playing at all makes this a solid UNDER play.
Good Luck to everybody in the Association!
