Victor Wembanyama did his best “Cloverfield” impersonation, storming the Big Apple to send New Yorkers cowering in fear — just like the 2008 monster movie.
This “alien” led the San Antonio Spurs to a win over the New York Knicks, tightening the series heading into Game 4.
My Spurs vs. Knicks predictions like New York to push back tonight, thanks to defense, offensive execution, and a monster of its own: Karl-Anthony Towns.
Here are my best NBA picks for Wednesday, June 10.
Our best Spurs vs Knicks SGP for Game 4
SGP leg #1: Knicks moneyline
The New York Knicks’ 13-game postseason streak came to an end, but that takes pressure off the team heading into Game 4. New York no longer has to be perfect and can clean up its sloppy play, which led to the San Antonio Spurs’ strong showing on Monday.
The Knicks coughed up the ball 13 times and awarded San Antonio 21 points off turnovers, which is just what the Spurs’ transition-heavy offense wants. New York gets back to business in Game 4, controlling pace, limiting miscues and putting themselves one win away from an NBA title.
SGP leg #2: Under 216.5
The Under has been the bet in the NBA Finals for the past 20 years, coming through at a 60% clip since 2005-06.
After the Under hit in the first two games of the finals, the Over landed in Game 3, thanks in part to the Spurs getting easier looks and scoring from the foul line.
With the Knicks refocused and not handing over extra possessions, Game 4 comes in short of the total.
SGP leg #3: Karl-Anthony Towns Over 32.5 points + rebounds + assists
Karl-Anthony Towns couldn’t get into rhythm in Game 3 and was passive in his offensive approach, especially compared to his overall work in the postseason.
New York needs to get KAT going early, and with San Antonio throwing smaller guards at him, expect the 7-footer to clean the offensive glass and distribute from the high post.
I have him pegged for a collective 35 PRA, while some bullish models are as high as 41+ for this combo prop.
