This isn't exactly a huge game for the Heat. Dont try and convince yourself otherwise.

stern will want to keep this game close. knicks +10.5

good analogy and reasoning. the way i see it, is that it is no secret that the Miami Trio has the upperhand in most categories...i think it is more of a test on the Knicks in competing with the best in the league. buying the underdog here certainly has value (assuming one bought in at a double digit spread)

Reedeman · 02-23-12, 02:36 PM

lets not forget lin and his turnovers... expect the heat to exploit that number... full court press baby

lotterypick05 · 02-23-12, 02:53 PM

Miami will win this game by 15+.

Heat's defense will eat the Knicks alive. Heat roll...I will give every poster in this thread 100 points and never post again if the Knicks win tonight.

Sounds good since I put all my points on the Heat ML.

At least I won't be points broke....

I'm a die hard Knicks fan and I dont think we have a chance in this game. if Shumpert is healthy he can semi contain Lebron but he has been really banged up. the Knicks are getting so much love while Miami is just CRUSHING everybody and flying under the radar. you think they don't notice this? Miami is going to make a statement tonight.

as much as I love the Knicks they are just not ready to compete with Miami yet. with all the new players inserted into the line up they are still learning how to gel together and play together..this is like pre season..first few games of the season for this new line up and bench. meanwhile Lebron and D Wade have a connection going on like no other. Would love for the Knicks to make a this game..and the only way they can is to not get suckered into the run and gun game and run with Miami...but thats going to be tough to do with Lin running the point.

Knicks have to sloooooooow this game down as much as possible make it a boring half court slug fest and run the shot clock down every possession to limit Miamis touches. I just don't see it happening though, Miami will be able to control the pace and run the floor and get out in transition.

For being a Knicks fan u should know that Carmelo does a pretty good job straight up against Lebron. Only on the nights he feels like playing defense that is. Should be one of those nights.

I'm in for the 100

Knicks covered a similar number in Miami already this year.. now with all these extra pieces- it's a bigger game for Knicks than Heat how can you not take the points here

he does but that is when Lebron was in Cleveland and didn't have D Wayde and Bosh around him. totally different story now.

chankng · 02-23-12, 04:27 PM

which side has the public been playing heavily for this game? got any numbers? just curious see how the public is looking at this game

MoneyLineDawg · 02-23-12, 04:28 PM

I am rooting big time for the Knicks but think I will lay off this one......Very tough game to cap, line is spot on (not because it will be heat winning by 10- just 50/50 chance heat beat em by double digits)

zoo youk · 02-23-12, 04:31 PM

Best play is heat 1st half

frostno98 · 02-23-12, 05:21 PM

Steve Novak and JR Smith will be the difference today.

Good luck, but it looks good on the surface.

sportsfanatic · 02-23-12, 05:48 PM

atlanta was a good practice game for the knicks, but miami is too good

If they lose, that's the last NBA game I'm betting for the rest of the year.

Iman sitting makes a difference....as a Knick homer I like them laying low for next month or so while the gel...schedule is brutal after the break...beat guys say its obvious Amare still not the same...tonight they get wiped out in 2nd half...Wade with the huge game..Bron Bron, not so much

maseda17 · 02-23-12, 06:09 PM

This Heat defense is way too good for a Knicks offense that is still geling with Melo's return. I think Heat jump out early and coast in this game with a huge national audience.

moshi · 02-23-12, 07:16 PM

If Knicks keep it close, the over has a shot.

jjgold · 02-23-12, 07:20 PM

Amare has to be a top 15 nba worst player
He is horrific

Deuce · 02-23-12, 07:22 PM

Knicks looking terrible.

zoo youk · 02-23-12, 07:30 PM

Miami has blowm so many shots at the rim they have left about 10 pts off the board

MoneyLineDawg · 02-23-12, 07:34 PM

Ended up taking Knicks +10 for small.....

jjgold · 02-23-12, 07:40 PM

Heat by 4 emd of 1st
Knicks hung in there although I cannot see knicks staying with them and covering

zoo youk · 02-23-12, 07:44 PM

Unreal thqt knicks are this close with 8 turnoverw and shooting 36 percent

zoo youk · 02-23-12, 07:45 PM

Never seen so mamy missed lay ups

zoo youk · 02-23-12, 08:14 PM

think the best bet here is Miami -5.5 1st half. Heat going to come out like gang busters. may get complacent 2nd halve and let up a big lead.

Knicks have not been a good first half team on the road.

Melo amd gd missed layups by miami destroyed this bet should have cashed so fkn easy
