New York Knicks vs Utah Jazz Picks and Predictions | NBA Best Bets For 1/30/24
This is a Knicks team right now full disclosure I’m a Knicks fan so I am excited at watching a team that’s 13-2 straight up and 12-3 against a number since January 1 of this year remember they made that New Year’s Eve trade which sent uh Emanuel Quigley and and
Guys over to Toronto and uh what they got back in return so they have they have changed their roster a little bit now the Knicks during this run have been laying bigger numbers against Bad teams and bad defensive teams if you look you know you’re talking about minus n to
Chicago minus n and a half to Washington minus 12 to Portland uh minus uh seven and a half to Toronto uh even talking about recently minus 8 to Charlotte last night a line that ended up closing at 10 by the way so they’ve been covering bigger numbers here and that’s why when
I see this line it looks a little fishy because both of these teams are on a back toback now Utah’s on their own great run here at 14 and six straight up and ATS over their last 20 this is clearly a better offensive team than what the Knicks faced last night in
Charlotte I wondered why this line was so so short here the other part you have to factor into this equation guys is that Julius Randle is out he didn’t play last night he had that shoulder dislocation in the game against Miami and who knows how long he’s going to be
Out last night part of my handicap in playing the Knicks as they covered was look Charlotte’s just not an offense that really can take advantage uh and I think Utah can and I gotta tell you guys I mean even as a Knicks fan here with
This line is stinky as it is I think there’s really only one way to play this game as much as you should take the Four Points I’d play you on the money line because if the Knicks are going to win this game there’s one thing that’s going
To definitively happen it’s going to go under if you look at their record since the uh trade back on the first guys they’re 13- two to the under I mean you know their defense is stepping up and this is a total that’s even higher than what we’re seeing from many of the other
Totals they’ve seen a lot of totals in the in the high 220s low 230s and this is a total right here that’s at 228 so if the Knicks are going to win this game it stays under and that means Utah isn’t scoring but my feeling here is that this
Is a Utah offense after sort of getting embarrassed last night that probably bounces back here has a better shooting game and the Knicks feel the effects of not having Julius Randall here little sprinkle on the money line Utah minus plus four rather but sprinkle the money line for the Utah Jazz
Tonight so I’m I’m fascinated by this stinky line concept that you’re talking about my prior name my priority number for the game uh ja three and a half Point dogs uh and I update my power ratings every night that’s all I do is you know every night I update my power
Ratings they’re in the gold sheet every week you can read them there so my number is three and a half what makes this line stinky what makes you think it’s stinky well I think the books by the way when you take in back-to-backs I think the books sometimes overinflate the
Back-to-back number I would have made this closer to six um by my power ratings I would have had the Nicks favor by six given the recent run that they’re on and sort of when you see a team on a run like this books usually make you pay
A premium for a team that is going on a run you’re not seeing that premium here you’re seeing a pretty you know lower number than again what they’ve seen against Bad defensive teams and that’s with the Jazz are especially on the road and the Knicks offensively have actually
Gotten better since this trade they’re averaging over 116 points per game that’s not usually way the Knicks operate offensively it’s not their their MO and now you take Julius Randall a guy who’s got 24-9 on a nightly basis barely breaking a sweat out of the lineup how
Much can we see Jaylen Brunson like he did last night with 32 just carry this team over and over again they’re getting more they’re going to have to get more minutes from guys who aren’t big offensive contributors great on defense but not big offensive contributors and
Tonight may be the night where if Utah is shooting hot and I think after the way they played last night they’ll have a more of a regression to the mean in their scoring and shooting that they would they’ll be able to get inside this number will win the thing outright

Taking under in Utah games is dangerous. Defense is trash and if OG plays, it could just go over. Line is low because OG is questionable.
