By Marc Lawrence — The New York Knicks were the best pointspread team in the NBA this season, going 45-26-1 ATS in all games prior to the playoffs.
They return home to Madison Square Garden this evening on the heels of a Game One setback to Atlanta on Sunday knowing they are 7-1 SU and 6-2 ATS as a playoff favorite when coming off a SU favorite loss.
On the flip side, the Hawks stand 4-14 SU and 5-13 ATS in the playoffs versus foes coming off a SU favorite loss, including 0-7 SUATS the last seven games.
