A team that could show us much more than they are showing right now (just 5-5 in last 10 games) is playing against a much weaker team, NY.

Like Phoenix, Dallas started this month badly. Both teams have to fight dearly for play-off. Dallas (40-23) was in fifth place in the West at the end of February, but dropped to seventh after opening this month with three straight losses.

So a win in this game is something that must happen. That’s why I think they will grab first 20 points.

Knicks are not playing well away so it will be hard for them to score 20 points faster then Dallas. Also their last 10 games record, 2-8 isn’t looking to strong at all.

Also their main scorer J. Crawford might not play so this bet looks almost won.

Pick: Dallas will score first 20 points.
