Never leading series and win Spurs: +550 (bet $10 to win $65 total) What to know: A bettor would win this wager if the Spurs were never ahead in the series in terms of games and then go on to win it. In this case, their only option would be to take a 3-2 lead before winning the Finals. So, if the Knicks take a 3-2 lead in the series, and then the Spurs tie it at 3-3, and the Spurs were to win Game 7, they still never led the series. In NBA history, a team has never won a Finals series that it didn’t lead at some point, so San Antonio would make history if it were to pull off the feat. Team to go undefeated on the road in Finals Spurs: +700 (bet $10 to win $80 total) What to know: If this were to happen, it would be quite the reversal of what we’ve seen in Games 1 and 2.

As for the Knicks, this postseason, they are 6-1 at home and 8-1 on the road.
