1.87Tip and bets
Bookmakers are again favoring Indiana, and their logic is clear. The home stands in Indianapolis are like the 12th player. But New York caught the courage. The victory of Thibodeau's team is a powerful emotional charge. Towns is reaching the peak of his form, and their defense crushed the Pacers in the second half, not allowing them to breathe. The Knicks will play with fire in their eyes, Brunson will lead the attack, and Towns will close the shield. Thibodeau will certainly increase the pressure on Haliburton to knock Indiana off the rhythm. The Pacers will respond with speed and three-pointers, but New York has already shown that they can hold a shot. If Towns continues to dominate under the ring, and Brunson distributes his magic, the Knicks can even the score.
Our betting tip is a 2.16 overtime victory for New York.
