00:00Let's get out to the Eastern Conference.

00:01The Knicks, seven-point home favorite tonight inside the Garden

00:04against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

00:06Again, seven-point spread.

00:09I do wonder how this game will look tonight by the time we get the tip inside MSG.

00:14Will the Cavs have any of the regular starters out there?

00:18What about New York?

00:20Might the Knicks elect to rest a couple of people?

00:23Donnie, what do you think this game looks like inside the Mecca tonight?

00:26Again, that's going to be the issue waiting until game time.

00:28But also, I think a lot of people have the same concept as me.

00:31That line overnight was minus 11 and a half, both on back-to-backs.

00:34But again, Cleveland didn't.

00:35It would be one thing if Cleveland was like,

00:36okay, we're going to play half our starters last night, half tonight.

00:38It's like, okay, I get a good read on it.

00:40Cleveland basically played nobody yesterday.

00:41And I doubt they'd just say, yeah, I had some fun backups.

00:44Go out there again and play 40 minutes in the starting lineup.

00:47Like, no, this might have been that game they circled.

00:49Say, this is the get-right game for us.

00:50We'll rest again on Sunday.

00:51Then we'll be off to the playoffs.

00:52Because that 11 and a half has now turned into minus seven across the board

00:56and a total of 226 and a half.

00:57Let me see who the starters are, because I guarantee you,

01:00you see a full Cleveland Cavaliers roster tonight,

01:02even though you know they only might get one half.

01:04That line's coming down even more from the seven.
