We can’t begin to describe what happened in Game 4, but the best way to get over a shocking loss is by winning the next game.

The Spurs blew a 29-point lead to lose in the dying seconds at Madison Square Garden, and although the blame can be put on De’Aaron Fox for attempting to score with 10 seconds left, or Victor Wembanyama for missing two late free throws, it’s not the time to dwell on what happened.

Game 5 gives the Spurs an opportunity to right their wrongs, and although coming back to San Antonio at 2-2 would have made them title favourites, they can win three consecutive games, kicking off with a win on Sunday.

The Spurs largely dominated the Knicks in most areas. They went cold in the shooting department in the second half, so they should look to attack the rim more often. Having a player like Wemby and not getting him touches in the paint is criminal, and the Spurs have shown just how young they are during this series.

However, they should cover the spread at home. It’s a must-win game, and the Knicks will be happy to return home to give their crowd something to celebrate.

Knicks vs. Spurs SGM

Spurs –5.5, Dylan Harper Over 14.5 Points, De’Aaron Fox Over 14.5 Points, Over 216.5 Points @ $10.00

Dylan Harper showed why he was a #2 pick in the draft in Game 4. He dropped 21 points for the Spurs, and he could rise to the occasion again. We expect the role players for the Spurs to deliver in this game, and they’ll only improve for the experience. Over 14.5 points is worth including in NBA SGM picks.

We have been critical of Fox, who is the highest-paid player on the Spurs roster. His lack of finals experience has shown up, but he’s still a quality player, and he should want to make up for his Game 4 mistake. He still had 18 points on Thursday, so he’s on track to go over 14.5 points.

Three of the four games have gone under the total, but the Spurs’ offence could fire up under desperate circumstances. Returning to San Antonio helps, and they could score close to 115 points, which should be enough for the over to cash.
