The New York Knicks have been kind to bettors in the underdog role dating back to last season, but they’re coming off some recent bad losses and are on the end of a back to back. The Philadelphia 76ers have quietly won six straight games, they’re getting healthier, they’re at home, and they have the rest advantage here. We’re not being asked to lay much. Give me the 76ers at home.
