The first major upset of the NBA Playoffs is in the books as the Pacers disposed of the 64-win Cleveland Cavaliers in five games, including wins on the Cavs’ home floor in each of their three home games this series.

Now Indiana gets to rest up as the Knicks look to eliminate a severely weakened Celtics team, while the T’Wolves hope to wrap things up in five games themselves when they play host to a Warriors team that will still not have Steph Curry in the lineup.

As is our Wednesday tradition at BestOdds.com, today’s article will spotlight our favorite team props of the night.

Here’s what we have on our betting cards for tonight’s pair of potential closeout games.

Note: Odds were correct at the time of writing.

Knicks Team Total OVER 101.5 Points (-116) at FanDuel

The Celtics have hit critical mass as Jayson Tatum ruptured his Achilles in the Celtics Game 4 loss on Monday and are staring down the barrel at a 3-1 series deficit.

While the C’s were my pick to win it all at the start of the playoffs, I’m jumping ship and taking my L as I believe this series will not make it to a Game 6.

The Knicks have been unrelenting in how they’ve attacked the team that had their number over the last several years, and now there is a whole lot of blood in the water.

I believe you will see Jalen Brunson and company visit Beantown with every intent to go back to New York without the Celtics following behind them.

With that game script, I think you see the Knicks clear 101.5 points (I also like 102.5 if you can’t get 101.5) and a team total over cash as they prepare for a rematch of the 2000 East Finals when the Pacers visit MSG next week.

Warriors Team Total UNDER 96.5 Points (-110) at FanDuel

With news of the Warriors once again being without the services of Stephen Curry, it sure looks as though the Dubs run is about to have a somber ending at the hands of a Timberwolves team that’s continuing to play its best basketball of the season at the perfect time.

While Jimmy Butler and Jonathan Kuminga have admirably tried to keep the Warriors’ season alive, it’s strikingly apparent that the Warriors do not have the offense necessary to beat this Wolves team.

I expect this game to be pretty one-sided in favor of the Wolves, and I believe the Warriors will struggle to hit 90 points in this one, much less 97 or more.

Give me the Warriors to go under their team total in this one.
