2026 NBA Finals Betting Preview | San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks

Like we're, we're NBA sports betting analysts, and on this podcast we will give out our best bets, but who'd you pick? So I, I also don't feel super strongly about a side.

I am gonna pick a side here, but like you, I normally try if I can to come to the podcast with a side.

I feel like to, to me I feel like I owe that to the listener.

Like w- what, uh, what's the best angle? Do I, what do I have to chop or add on or something to find something? So I will have one, but you know, when we go to Twitter and post the, like, team in X number of games, you said Knicks.

I'm gonna ask you for a number of games.

I'm gonna say if I had to do that, I'll go Spurs in six.

That's my pick.

To, to Jake on the street who asked me, "Who's your pick in the finals?" Spurs in six, but I don't feel super strong about it.

Knicks in how many for you?

Seven.

Okay.

Knicks in seven.

So interesting.

We're, we're, we're both picking the team to close out on the road as well.

Yeah.

Which is probably a good sign of our uncertainty.

[laughs]

That's absolutely true.

The market on this at Kalshi, you can get the San Antonio Spurs at 63 cents.

This is bouncing between 63 and 64 cents.

Minus 170 implied at 63 cents.

The New York Knicks are 37 cents, uh, here.

By the way, that's, the minus 170 at Kalshi is significantly better by 30 cents than the, uh, 200 that you're gonna get at most sports books.

Uh, the New York Knickerbockers are plus 170 at 60, at 37 cents, so you get that.

Uh, you can, I believe at DraftKings you can get Knicks at a slightly better number if you wanna bet them.
