Why Bet on the Mavericks

The Dallas Mavericks have fallen out of playoff contention, and into fourth place in the Southwest Division. Dallas still has time to reach the postseason, but will not reach their 49 and 50 wins from the past two seasons. The Mavericks are led by veteran Dirk Nowtizki, who is scoring 18.7 points per game, while point guard Deron Williams is dishing out 5.8 assists per game. The Mavericks won 99 games the past two seasons during the regular season, but are fighting to reach .500 this season. Dallas is 19th in the league defensively, allowing more than 104 points per game.

Why Bet on the Knicks

The New York Knicks were one of the NBA’s biggest disappointments again in 2015-2016. Carmelo Anthony and crew just cannot reach the postseason out of the Eastern Conference. Anthony is scoring more than 22 points per game, but for the third straight season, his team will finish under .500. The Knicks beat Chicago in back to back games, but back it up with a blowout loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Knicks are third in the Atlantic Division, but only ahead of both the Brooklyn Nets and the Philadelphia 76ers, who have a combined 30 wins between the two.
