Bet $10 On Spurs vs. Knicks & Get $365 In Bonus Bets!

Alright, so we finally got our matchup: Spurs vs. Knicks, and it's actually a rematch of the 1999 Finals which is kind of wild. Vegas has San Antonio as the favorite at around -205 on the moneyline, with the Knicks the underdog at +164. That's basically a 67 percent implied chance for the Spurs.

And honestly? It's all about Wembanyama. The dude just put up 32.3 points a game in the three wins over OKC and won Western Conference Finals MVP, plus he's the Defensive Player of the Year. When you've got a 7-footer who protects the rim AND shoots from 25 feet, there's just no one on the Knicks who can really match that. San Antonio also gets home court as the higher seed after clawing back from down 3-2 to beat the defending champ Thunder in seven.

That said, don't sleep on the Knicks here. They come in red hot with 11 straight wins to reach their first Finals since 1999, and they were actually the No. 1 net rating team in the playoffs, with San Antonio right behind at No. 2. They've also got the best defense in the league and a ton of rest, since they swept Cleveland and haven't played much lately.

Jalen Brunson is the guy who can carry them, and Karl-Anthony Towns pulling Wemby away from the rim is the chess match to watch. My gut? The Spurs are the pick, probably in six, because Wemby's just too much, but if Brunson gets hot and New York's defense travels, this could go the distance.
