New York Knicks Under 41.5
After finishing fourth in the East with a record of 41-31 last season, New Yorks win-total is stationed directly above that identical mark as most books are taking bets on whether this young Knicks squad is going to improve last years tally by just one game.
Nobody expected much from New York heading into last year, as the Knicks wrapped up their previous campaign with an underwhelming record of 21-45 and didnt make any groundbreaking offseason moves other than acquiring Sixth Man of the Year candidate Derrick Rose.
New York has visibly improved over the last few seasons, but last year seemed a little too good to be true, as the Knicks miraculously mounted a late nine-game winning streak and ended up closing out the regular season with victories in 16-of-20 games.
The Knicks are still an excellent young squad that comfortably deserves inclusion in postseason conversations but asking them to win 40+ games again and compete for a 3-5 seed like they did last year, seems like a tall task.
