Sticking with the Hot Hand – Knicks will Roll in Minnesota

Electrifying Robinson, High-Scoring Knicks To Roll Over T-Wolves

The New York Knicks (27-37 SU, 36-27-1 ATS, 34-30 O/U) have won and covered the spread in two straight games in the BetOnline Sportsbook and are coming off a 116-111 overtime win over the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday night.

Explosive reserve guard Nate Robinson scored 30 points and dished out six assists to help New York cash in as 7-point road underdogs while the final score played over the 206.5-point O/U total.

The Minnesota Timberwolves (19-45 SU, 28-35-1 ATS, 33-29-2 O/U) snapped their 10-game losing streak by trouncing the Memphis Grizzlies 104-79 on Wednesday night.

Minnesota covered the spread for BetOnline NBA sports betting backers as 2-point home underdogs while the game played under the 198-point O/U total. Overachieving forward Ryan Gomes scored a team-high 25 points to lead the Timberwolves to victory.

Here is a look at tonight’s key trends, followed by my in-depth analysis and NBA Free Pick.

• The Knicks are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 after scoring 100 points or more in their previous game.
• The Knicks are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 after allowing 100 points or more in their previous game.
• The Timberwolves are 29-60-1 ATS in their last 90 home games.
• The Timberwolves are 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games overall.
• The Over is 5-0 in Knicks last 5 vs. Western Conference.
• The Over is 4-0 in Timberwolves last 4 vs. NBA Atlantic.
• The Over is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings.
• The Over is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings in Minnesota.

NBA Odds:

• New York Knicks -5 -110
• Minnesota Timberwolves +5 -110
• Over 218 -110
• Under 218 -110

Analysis: I’ll get right to the point with this selection by saying that the New York Knicks will win and easily cover the spread in this contest with their high-powered offense and Minnesota’s inability to find consistent scorers with Al Jefferson lost for the remainder of the regular season.
