New York Knicks vs. San Antonio Spurs Odds & Last 5
Head-to-head this season, the teams split their two-game series but played a third time in the midseason tournament, with the Knicks prevailing to clinch the Emirates Cup. That sets up the potential for the first double victory (Cup and Larry O’B) since the inception of the Emirates Cup.
Also of note, the last time the Knicks reached the Finals (1999), they faced the Spurs, who won the title beginning their Tim Duncan era, where they won five championships. In all the Spurs won five titles with the last one coming in 2013-14 (Heat)
New York had a relatively easy road to the NBA Finals, playing clubs that were either inferior or were plagued by injury. To wit, they bested the Hawks in Round 1 by a 4-2 margin and haven’t lost since that series as they swept the 76ers and Cavaliers, both of whom needed seven games to reach the next round.
San Antonio had a tougher route to the Finals, particularly in the Conference Finals against the reigning champions. The Spurs bested the Trail Blazers in a gentleman’s sweep in Round 1, took out the Timberwolves and a hobbled Anthony Edwards 4-2 in Round 2, and needed all seven games to dispel the champs, who were missing two of their top three players.
The oddsmakers are favoring San Antonio to win by 5.5 points with an over/under of 216.5 points.

New York Knicks vs. San Antonio Spurs bottom line:
After overcoming the 29-point deficit to take a 3-1 series lead, the Knicks are poised to win the 2026 championship and will get up to three opportunities if necessary to complete their dream.
Although it’s not over for the Spurs, only 15 teams have ever overcome a 1-3 deficit, and, only the Cleveland Cavaliers did it in the finals.
Suffice it to say, the odds are definitely against the youngsters.

Knicks Spurs Free Pick: Spurs +5.5
Here is my Knicks Spurs free pick.
The big question is how the Spurs’ youngsters will respond to the way they lost Game 4. Moreover, Mitch Johnson needs to learn lessons from the loss and be much better in Game 5.
Veteran De’Aaron Fox didn’t take control late in the match, so Johnson may need to make the tweak to play Dylan Harper late as he can at least get unimpeded to the bucket. The question is whether anyone on the Spurs can manage the team on the court in clutch time.
The numbers confirm the arrival of both sqauds who have feasted this postseason. To wit, New York ranks first in offense (123.3), defense (103.5), and net rating (+19.8). In comparison, the Spurs rank third in postseason offense (115.4), second in defense (104.4), and also second in net rating (+11.0).
The Spurs have been their own worst enemy, building double-digit leads but losing in clutch time. Three of the games have been decided by four points or less (two by a single point), so San Antonio need not hang their head. Rather, they need to use their anger as motivation and learn from their mistakes.
To that end, we’re due for a blow-out win, and while the Knicks have been great down the stretch of games and hold the commanding lead, I’ll take the points.
