Game 2 happens tonight! Analysts have not given either team a clear edge. Game 1, for what it’s worth, was an up and down affair. Though it ended with a conclusive 10 point margin, there were enough shifts and turns to leave little doubt that the Spurs aren’t going quietly.

In fact, were it not for an 11-0 run by the Knicks in the last two minutes of play, this next leg of the series would have gone a different way.

At the time of writing, their roster is fully intact. New York may not be able to say the same. Mitchell Robinson, who has struggled with a finger injury, is listed as day-to-day.

Right now, the Knicks are riding an incredibly impressive twelve game win streak this post-season. Formidable though they are, you can definitely expect the Spurs to fight back.

We’ve got some more props to look at today. Let’s get into it.

Single-prop angles where our model shows higher probability than the odds reflect.

Luke Kornet typically collects 3 rebounds before he even gets out of bed in the morning. He averaged 6 per game during the regular season, and 4 in the playoffs. That said, he’s been playing reduced minutes lately.

Even averaging just ten minutes per game, he was finding 3.4 rebounds per game during the Conference Finals, but obviously reduced playtime hurts his chances a bit.

Miles McBride is averaging exactly 2 rebounds per game this post-season, and 3 overall against the Spurs. He had only 1 during the first round of the Finals, but 2 is not tall order.

Last, we’ve got a line on Keldon Johnson. Johnson was averaging 14 points per game for most of the season but has dipped to 8 in the post-season.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, shot volume and FG% are strong success indicators for him. He’s a 52% shooter, which means that it doesn’t necessarily take a ton of looks to get him to 8 points. It comes down to how well he is playing, and what role the Spurs have for him in their offensive production.

Multiple edges combined into one value-driven parlay.

We’ve got a four legged parlay at +1238.

Miles McBride has been scoring at right around 7 points per game lately. That’s coming off 37% shooting during the post-season. He can definitely meet this over, though we’ll want to see his shooting hold close to average in order to make it happen.

Mitchell Robinson is still listed as questionable due to a hand injury. He’s been averaging 5 points and 5 rebounds per game during the post-season. The scoring line on this parlay is right around what we’ve seen from him, but he’s only got it once in the last 5.

We already covered Luke Kornet in the Featured Bets section. As mentioned earlier, he’s usually a rebounding machine. That said, his numbers have been on the lower side recently. He can get to 4 but it’s currently on the higher side of what he has been averaging.

Finally, we’ve got De’Aaron Fox at 16 points. Fox has shot 42% from the field during the post-season, on his way to 16 points per game on average. That said, he actually hasn’t cleared this over since 5/15.
