NBA Tips - Thursday, May 7 NBA Picks & Multi

The Knicks made a huge statement in Game 1 with a demolition job of the 76ers – what can we expect in Game 2? While the Spurs will look to level the series against Minnesota.

Mike Brown has taken the ball out of Jalen Brunson’s hands somewhat, running a five-out offense with Karl-Anthony Towns as the decision maker – and wow do the Knicks look so much better!

The change was obvious from Game 4 of the series against the Hawks, and in the four games KAT has played with the ball going through him, he’s averaged 11.6 rebounds and 7.2 assists for an RA of 18.8. The catch is, KAT had an RA of 12 in Game 1 – but did this in 20 minutes.

Think we’ll see a better showing from the 76ers in Game 2 with a bit more preparation time, which means we’ll see KAT playing around that 34-minute mark – if he does that, a triple double ($16) isn’t out of the question.
