[Mackenzie Rivers] (0:00 - 1:44)
Opening Prediction:

Mackenzie begins with a confident prediction that the New York Knicks will force a Game 7, stating:
“I think the Knicks force a game seven, we get more basketball, everybody's happy.”

Main Bet Focus – Karl-Anthony Towns:

Rivers’ primary betting angle revolves around Karl-Anthony Towns (KAT), citing his consistent performance:
“Carl Anthony Towns, who's gone over his prop in four or five games in this series.”

Matchup Advantage vs. Miles Turner:

He breaks down why Towns is effective against Miles Turner:
“Carl Anthony Towns loves his matchup versus Miles Turner.”

Although Towns is described as a strong shooter for his size, Rivers emphasizes that he doesn't rely on volume three-point shooting:
“He's a really good shooter for a big man, but he's not Steph Curry. He doesn't want to shoot eight threes a game.”

Playstyle and Offensive Approach:

Rivers explains Towns' versatile offensive style:
“He's a seven footer, he can post up, but he's not Hakeem Olajuwon... What he wants to do is face up, use his speed, and drive to the basket.”

Towns utilizes the threat of his three-point shot to create driving opportunities, especially against defenders like Pascal Siakam and Miles Turner.
