The Knicks are now two up on the Cavs. Their first win of the series came in overtime. Their second was more decisive. Naturally, there’s still plenty of time left in the series. That said, it’s fairly rare for a team to come back from an 0-2 start in the playoffs.

We’ll have more to cover today. First, let’s take a look at how yesterday’s picks went.

Last Night’s Featured bets delivered with 0 hits and 3 misses. Yikes!

Sam Merrill shot a miserable 12% from the field. He wound up scoring 4 points in twenty three minutes of playtime.

Dennis Schroder had a quiet evening as well. He was a little more efficient, shooting 40%, but the shot volume wasn’t there. He also put up 4 points.

And Miles McBride finalized our 0-3 record for the night. We needed 6 points out of him. He managed 5.

All of these picks were perfectly reasonable. It’s simply that none of the players we chose played to usual form. It happens.

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

De’Aaron Fox was out for Game Two. He seems likely to return today. When healthy, he’s very capable of clearing 14 points. He averaged 16 over his last ten games, shooting 48% from the field.

Keldon Johnson at 10 or over is another inviting line. He’s cleared it in three of his last five games, averaging 42% shooting from the field.

Finally, Alex Caruso at under 4 rebounds. Caruso has been averaging 3 rebounds per game during the post season (4 against the Spurs). He’s capable of getting to 5, but hasn’t since April.

Anything can happen, of course, but it’s very easy to see how all three of these lines could work out. After yesterday’s picks, we’d really love to put a few tallies in the Win column.

Multiple edges combined into one value-driven parlay.

We’ve got a three legged parlay at +514.

De’Aaron Fox is currently listed as questionable for tonight’s game. He’s been at over 15 points for all of his last five games. That said, it’s hard to take into account how injury will impact the way he plays.

SGA is, naturally, a hard man to bet against. His scoring averages have fluctuated between 28-32 points per game for the year.

He’s sitting at 28 right now, off 50% shooting. It’s worth taking into consideration that the stakes for tonight’s game are enormous. Players like SGA often deliver under those conditions.

Of course, he could have a great game, and still score under 31 points.

Finally, Alex Caruso at under 11 points. He averages under 10 points per game, and has been kept to single digits in three of his last five. That said, the two double digit scoring games came against the Spurs.
