Whenever the New York Knicks and Golden State Warriors face off against each other, it provides us with an event similar to the NBA All-Star Game, minus the All-Stars. Both defenses are horrible at best and I actually think there is a strong possibility that both teams break the 100-point mark by the beginning of the 4th quarter. In addition, this is an excellent opportunity to play both the side and total because New York is not playing well on their current road trip. With that being said, they are definitely eager to be playing a team that is on their same level of competition tonight. Look for the Warriors to get the win by simply outscoring the Knicks in a very fun game to watch (tons of 3's and easy dunks). No defensive effort will be displayed tonight from two teams who are certainly ready to pack up their bags for the summer and enter the LeBron sweepstakes. Ellis, Curry (who will have an increased role tonight) and Lee should all get 30+ each and help their teams generate an offensively sound evening. Everybody scores tonight, but the Warriors score a little bit more. Take the home team Warriors and the Over.

Cleveland -5
I'm looking for LeBron & company to put together a dominating performance on ESPN, after struggling some their L3 games. They still have won 16 of L18 games, with only two losses at San Antonio & Milwaukee (w/out LeBron). Curiously, James was a little passive vs. the Spurs, but don't think that will be a problem tonight. Cleveland have dominated this series, winning 8 straight meetings, 5 straight at home, including both contests this season. Atlanta have lost 5 straight on road to lesser competition. Lay the points. Take Cleveland.
