Point Spread: 3.00 | -110.00 New York (Away)
Result: Win
I like the New York Knicks to bounce back with a strong effort on the road to cover the spread and possibly clinch the series with an outright victory.
New York has received excellent play from Josh Hart, who has taken over for the injured Julius Randle to become New York's second leading scorer during the postseason with an average of 17 points per game and the leading rebounder for the Knicks with an average of 10.0 boards per contest.
Embiid is banged up and played near 50 minutes in their OT win and only 1 day of rest between games now.
The Knicks defense has played relatively the same as Philadelphia as both teams are scoring and allowing nearly identical numbers and even though New York will be playing on the road, the Knicks have split two games on the road in this series when losing Game 3 but winning Game 4. Jalen Brunson will have another excellent game offensively and I expect Hart and DeVencenzo to play well too and NY Wins.
