The New York Knicks are set to field a full-strength lineup once again, while the Boston Celtics remain shorthanded, having officially ruled out Sam Hauser and continuing to monitor Kristaps Porzingis, who is battling an illness. Despite entering the series with significant momentum, the long break between rounds didn’t seem to benefit Boston. The Celtics squandered a commanding 20-point lead in the third quarter of Game 1, ultimately falling short and surrendering home-court advantage to the underdog Knicks.
Surprisingly, New York, who struggled against Boston during the regular season, managed to flip the script in the series opener. With the Celtics' late-game collapse, the Knicks now have a real shot at making this series far more competitive than many anticipated.
Historically, the Celtics have been dominant when bouncing back from losses, boasting a 20-2 straight-up (SU) record and an 18-4 against the spread (ATS) mark following a defeat. While Boston is expected to even the series with a strong performance in Game 2, the current spread feels overly generous for a playoff matchup. Expect the Celtics to win, but the Knicks should keep it close, staying within single digits as they fight to prove Game 1 was no fluke. Take New York ATS
