And they&#8217;re 8-3 when the Cavs are playing a back-to-back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, prior to the all-star break, this over cashed in eight of the Knick&#8217;s previous nine games \u2014 and in six of seven for the Cavaliers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">SGP legs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong><strong><strong>Towns 2+ threes <\/strong>(-180):<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong> A thumb injury hampered Towns&#8217; 3-point shooting last month, but it seems like he&#8217;s much more comfortable shooting from deep now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>From Jan. 20 through Feb. 3, Towns posted a 20.0 3PT% in seven games. He canned multiple 3s only once.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Since then, Towns has 2+ threes in five straight games with a 48.5 3PT%.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Last night, Towns was a dreadful 2-for-10 from deep. But hey, he still cashed this bet. And the volume shows his willingness to put up shots, which is at least half the battle anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the season, KAT has hit this mark in 32 of 50 games (64.0%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>Allen to record a double-double <\/strong>(-124):<\/strong> Allen averages a double-double (13.7 points, 10.5 rebounds) and has cashed this bet in four straight games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;d be content riding with this as a straight wager, but it fits nicely into the SGP, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 6-foot-11 centre had 16 points and 20 rebounds last night on hyper-efficient 8-of-9 shooting. He played just 25 minutes, which is a few less than average, so hopefully he&#8217;ll have plenty in the tank for Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In his lone matchup against the Knicks this year, Allen finished with 15 points and 15 boards in 31 minutes of action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Picks made at 9:30 a.m. ET on 02\/21\/2025.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two of the Eastern Conference&#8217;s very best are set for a showdown on Friday night in Cleveland.
