The Knicks are 3-5 since then, although they beat Indiana 98-92 on Saturday. Still, they\u2019ve failed to cover in their past two games.<\/p>\n<p>All season, head coach Mike D\u2019Antoni has been criticized for playing his starters too much. It finally appears to be catching up to his players. Raymond Felton has been a double-double machine all season, but he\u2019s looking seriously worn out over the last week or so. <!-- Affiliate Code Do NOT Modify--><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"width: 250px; height: 250px; margin: 5px;\" src=\"http:\/\/affiliates.commissionaccount.com\/processing\/impressions.asp?btag=a_3953b_41\" alt=\"Online Sports Betting at Sportsbook\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><!-- End affiliate Code--><\/p>\n<p>Felton has made just 33 percent of his field goals over his last three games while dishing out just 13 total assists in the same span. Felton has failed to score more than 15 points in four of his last five games. Clearly, something has to be done to give him some fresh legs.<\/p>\n<p>Matters are only made worse after the injury to Danilo Gallinari on Saturday. Gallinari, who is averaging 15.3 points and 4.5 rebounds this season, crumpled to a heap against the Pacers after spraining his knee. He could miss the Spurs game, though the injury isn\u2019t considering too serious.<\/p>\n<p>San Antonio (29-4, 20-12-1 ATS) is riding a four-game winning streak. The Spurs have greatly rewarded NBA betting fans, as they\u2019re also enjoying a 4-0 run against the spread. They made short work of Oklahoma   City on Saturday, winning 101-74.<\/p>\n<p>The game was even more enjoyable for Spurs fans because of a throwback performance by Tim Duncan. Duncan, who is averaging just 13.6 points this season, led San Antonio with 21 against the Thunder. He also grabbed nine rebounds and blocked a shot.<\/p>\n<p>The Spurs also got a double-double from Tony Parker, just his second since Nov. 22. Parker finished with 14 points and 10 assists while adding a pair of steals.<\/p>\n<p>The Knicks look beat. It\u2019s easy to make excuses and point out that their past two losses have come on the road against powerhouses\u2014Miami and Orlando\u2014but San Antonio certainly belongs in that powerhouse category, doesn\u2019t it? New York doesn\u2019t have the depth to keep its starters fresh, and it\u2019s finally showing. Throw in the injury to Gallinari, and it\u2019s hard to talk yourself into taking the Knicks. Go with the Spurs, who continue looking like the best team in the NBA.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Trends<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>San Antonio is 14-1 SU in its last 15 games<br \/>\nSan Antonio is 9-1 SU in its last 10 games when playing New York<br \/>\nThe total has gone OVER in 6 of San Antonio&#8217;s last 7 games on the road<br \/>\nSan Antonio is 10-2 SU in its last 12 games on the road<br \/>\nThe total has gone UNDER in 4 of New York&#8217;s last 5 games at home<br \/>\nThe total has gone OVER in 4 of New York&#8217;s last 5 games when playing at home against San Antonio<br \/>\nNew York is 7-2 SU in its last 9 games at home<br \/>\nNew York is 16-6 SU in its last 22 games <\/p>\n<p><strong>San  Antonio<\/strong><strong> at New York pick<\/strong>: San Antonio<br \/>\n<strong> <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Ian Van Den Hurk has covered amateur and pro sports for years, including a successful run handicapping anything from football to mixed martial arts.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>CLICK HERE TO JOIN SPORTSBOOK.COM &#8211; ONE OF OUR TOP RATED ONLINE SPORTSBOOKS &#8211; 50% SIGN UP BONUS FOR NBA BETTING ONLINE<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Tuesday its the San Antonio Spurs vs. New York Knicks in the NBA.
