Are the New York Knicks the best playoff team in NBA history!? Ok, that’s a wild statement with only the second round just now starting, but it’s certainly felt that way these past few games.

🤔 76ers vs. Knicks Predictions for NBA Playoffs Game 2, 5/6

No matter how you slice it, New York has been absolutely dominant since losing back-to-back games by a single point to the Atlanta Hawks in the first round. Frankly, the blowouts have made it a bit less fun for fans of neither team, but even still, we cashed our first 76ers vs. Knicks predictions with Josh Hart.

He helped us add to our NBA expert picks record by going over 11.5 rebounds and assists - he had 11 at the half. With these blowout games, it’s a borderline necessity to have them hit as early as possible. What’s most interesting is that after the 137-98 win, the 76ers vs. Knicks odds have New York as LESS of a favorite!

It’s by just one point (7.5 to 6.5-point favorites), but still. Regardless, the focus of our 76ers vs. Knicks predictions for Game 2 is going to be the player prop markets again.

🔥 76ers vs. Knicks Best Bet: Tyrese Maxey Over 24.5 Points (-110 at Novig)

This time, we’re flipping to the Philly side of the matchup. We absolutely love this pick, especially since we hit it twice in their last series versus the Boston Celtics. We first did it in Game 2 when it was at 26.5; Maxey cashed our 76ers vs. Knicks predictions by going for 29 (he scored 31 the next game as well).

Then, we saw Joel Embiid return and lower this prop to 24.5 points. We understand the logic, but it’s just simply not an adjustment we would make. So, we took it again. Maxey closed out the last series with 25, 30, and 30 points again. We were confident in that and our 76ers vs. Knicks predictions for Game 2 because the numbers don’t lie.

Maxey and Embiid were on the court together for 25 games this season. In those games, Maxey averaged 28.5 points per game and scored 25+ in 19 of those 25. Since that regular season trend continued in the playoffs, there’s simply no reason to fade it now. Furthermore, Maxey averaged MORE ppg on the road this season (over 29/game)!

With all the above in mind, we love the best bet from our 76ers vs. Knicks predictions on Tyrese Maxey over 24.5 points (-110 at Novig).
