New York (33-18) is the No. 2 seed in the East after winning eight games in a row, while Detroit (37-13) has been the No. 1 seed for much of the year. In fitting fashion, the spread is a toss-up for this potential Eastern Conference finals preview.

💰 Best Knicks vs. Pistons prop bet: Cade Cunningham Over 9.5 assists (-110)
Check out all of our NBA analysis and expert predictions this season.
Given the magnitude of this game, there is no way I wasn’t betting on Pistons guard Cade Cunningham. My favorite angle for him is his assists, as he quietly has a higher hit rate at home than on the road and typically passes more when playing the second night of a back-to-back.
Cunningham has a hit rate of 63.6% in 22 home games this year compared to a 50% clip in the same number of road contests. He's also recorded double-digit dimes in five of the seven instances of him playing on the second night of a back-to-back.
All signs point toward an Over, winning $9.09 on a $10 wager.
🔥 More Knicks vs. Pistons prop picks
Duncan Robinson Over 10.5 points (-122)
Someone has to score on the Pistons for Cunningham to clear his assists total, and Duncan Robinson is as good a bet as anyone right now. Since Jan. 4, Robinson is averaging 13.4 points on 10.4 field-goal attempts per contest. He’s cleared this line in 11 of 16 games.
Robinson scored 21 points against the Washington Wizards last night, marking his second straight 20-point effort. He’s clearly benefiting from a Jaden Ivey-sized hole in the rotation after the Pistons traded him away.
With this line set at 11.5 at BetMGM, I’ll take FanDuel’s deal to win $8.20 on a $10 bet.
Karl-Anthony Towns Under 14.5 rebounds + assists (-112)
Karl-Anthony Towns is questionable, but I’ll fade him if he plays. The Pistons are a tough matchup for his style of play, ranking second in rebounds allowed and first in assists allowed.
Towns proved that in the last head-to-head meeting, finishing with one rebound and one assist on Jan. 5. He came nowhere near his closing line of 13.5 on this combo prop.
I’ll bet on another Under in this matchup, cashing $8.93 on a $10 wager.
