Monday’s NBA showdown between the Charlotte Bobcats (2-6) and the New York Knicks (4-4) looks to be an entertaining game, but it’s a tough one to make bets on.
The Knicks are at home and the NBA odds currently have them as 11-point favorites with a total of 202.2 for this 7:30 PM ET clash.
New York originally opened at -11.5 with the total set at 203.5, so there has been some movement in the hours before tipoff.
Although the Knicks have rebounded to win 3 of their last 5 games, they have still been one of the worst wagers in the NBA this year and have covered the odds just twice all season.
Charlotte also has been a poor bet and has won money for their backers in just 1 of the Bobcats’ most recent 6 games.

The Bobcats were 118-110 road winners as 11.5-point underdogs in New York earlier this season, and it marked the 2nd straight time that Charlotte has bested the Knicks.
That being said, New York won the previous 4 meetings and has covered the NBA betting odds in 3 of the last 5 against the Bobcats.
The over has been a popular bet when these teams meet up and has hit in 3 of the last 4 games.
New York has a poor 1-2 record at home this season and has failed to cover a point spread in any of those games.
The Bobcats are just 1-3 away from Charlotte on the year and the only time they’ve covered the odds in a road game was their victory over the Knicks just days ago.
The Bobcats have gone over the total in 4 of their last 5 this season, while the Knicks have gone under in 3 of their 4 most recent games.
