Head-to-head matches between these teams are usually low-scoring. Opponents failed to beat the total of 190 points in the most recent game. Knicks average 115 points per game at home, while Cavaliers score 109 on away. It is a crucial game for both teams, so we are not expecting a high-scoring encounter.

Our second bet is on total under 220.5 points
