Knicks vs. Mavericks Predictions, Picks & Odds: NBA Wednesday On ESPN, 11/27
The Dallas Mavericks host the New York Knicks today, with a 7:30 PM ET tipoff at the American Airlines Center. The Knicks are currently favored with a -166 money line to +140 for the Mavericks.
The Knicks also carry a four-point advantage on the spread, and the match has a 233-point total. A great game for ESPN highlighted by Jalen Brunson versus Kyrie Irving.
New York Knicks: Sky’s The Limit
The New York Knicks are currently fourth in the Eastern Conference and the Sky’s the Limit for them this season. They possibly fleeced the Minnesota Timberwolves in their October trade. Karl-Anthony Towns is playing like the best center in the Eastern Conference, and it’s not even close.
New York just routed the Denver Nuggets in their most recent game and could continue their road-winning ways against a tired Dallas Mavericks team. The Knicks starting five are healthy and Brunson is playing at an all-star level. The Knicks should be the favorites throughout this game, and perhaps the spread is not high enough.
Dallas Mavericks: Shoot The Moon
‘The most difficult road game to win is the first home game back’, Hubie Brown. Mr. Brown is one of the best basketball minds of all-time, and it would be difficult to name a person that has been involved with professional basketball longer than him.
The Head Coach of the 1975 ABA Champion Kentucky Colonels advice is not taken lightly, and the Dallas Mavericks should be cautious in this game against an Eastern Conference powerhouse, and a team Brown took to the playoffs.
The Mavericks have multiple players either out or listed as day-to-day. They won two of their three road games, and the one they lost went to overtime. They are going to be tired, and this could be a physically tough match for Dallas.

Knicks vs. Mavericks Predictions & Picks Today: Wednesday, 11/27
There are several player props that have great odds, but the straight bets seem safe and are at great odds.
That is why today’s bet on this match is on the spread.
Knicks vs. Mavericks Prediction: New York -4 (-108 on DraftKings)
The New York Knicks have an impressive starting five that can score with any offense in the NBA. Tom Thibodeau has always been known for his defense, but apparently you can teach an old dog new tricks.
The Knicks are averaging 119.1 points per game and allowing 112.8 per game. The strategy has been to outscore more than their opponent with several field goals from their scorers. They should have little issue outpacing the Mavericks who score 116.9 points per game and will be without their best scorer.
