Jalen Brunson's point total is too high to see value in the Over. The Cavs are a very good defensive team, and they improved even more in that area with the acquisition of Lonzo Ball. Brunson averaged 24.7 points per game against Cleveland last season across three meetings as well.

Cleveland won and covered in all four head-to-head matchups a season ago, but the Knicks were competitive in three of those contests. In three of four, New York held the lead at halftime, and in two of them, the Knicks were up going into the fourth quarter. New York was 27-14 straight up at Madison Square Garden last season. The Knicks can finally get over the hump here, and I expect them to do it in the home opener.

As it relates to scoring, the Knicks's outstanding 48.1% field goal percentage places 6th-strongest in the NBA since the start of last season.. The Cavaliers have played at the 9th-speediest pace-of-play in the league since the start of last season, which should raise opportunities for the Knicks.. The matchup against the Cavaliers may be a good one for drawing fouls; the opposition's starting PFs have attempted a massive 4.8 foul shots per game over the last 5 games (7th-most in the NBA).. Guerschon Yabusele should see an increase in efficiency in all stat categories due to owning the home court advantage in this game.

Star rating: 4 out of 5
The Cleveland Cavaliers are expected to suffer a drop-off in opportunities in this contest from sharing the court with the 6th-most lethargic pace team in the NBA since the start of last season (the Knicks).. Lonzo Ball will not possess the home court advantage in this game. Playing on the road tends to worsen player production in all facets of the game.
