Knicks vs. Mavericks best bet: Take under between slow-paced offenses

The Knicks are looking to snap their three-game losing streak on Tuesday against the Dallas Mavericks. Dallas took an early December matchup between these two teams at Madison Square Garden, riding a monster third quarter for the win. New York has since won eight straight games, but has lost to the Philadelphia 76ers and Chicago Bulls.

Knicks vs. Mavericks is a game between slow-paced offenses.

The Knicks have improved their defensive performance since the start of the season. Dallas is coming off a hot shooting game against the Los Angeles Lakers on Christmas Day. Both teams play at a slow pace. The last game between these two teams landed on 221 points. The Knicks are making opponents grind out games. I think there is value in taking the under here.
