🏀 Why the Spurs are still favored by 6.5
The Knicks stole Game 1 as underdogs and now own home-court advantage.
So why did sportsbooks move San Antonio from -5.5 in Game 1 to -6.5 for tonight’s Game 2 (8:30 ET, ABC)?
VSiN NBA analyst Zach Cohen believes several factors point toward a much better Spurs performance tonight:
• The Zig-Zag theory.
• San Antonio shot just 11-for-43 from 3-point range.
• Victor Wembanyama should be better after being outplayed by Karl-Anthony Towns.
• More Dylan Harper after he scored 16 points on 6-for-10 shooting.
• Expect the Spurs to put more pressure on Jalen Brunson at the point of attack.
