What the head-to-head says

The Boston Celtics and the New York Knicks are even at 7-7 across 14 meetings since 2024-25, as Atlantic Division rivals who meet three or four times a season. Against the closing spread the Boston Celtics are 6-8. On average the Boston Celtics drew 51% of the spread bets in these games and the New York Knicks 49%.

The public backed one side clearly (60% or more of spread bets) in 9 of them. The Boston Celtics went 2-3 against the spread in the games where the crowd backed them. The New York Knicks went 3-1 against the spread in the games where the crowd backed them.

None of this is a pick. Across the league over the last two seasons, the side with 60% or more of spread bets covered about half the time, not enough to beat the bookmaker's margin by backing it or fading it. The next meeting will show its live split on the NBA page on game day.

Reading a head-to-head split

The spread, bet and money columns are always the Boston Celtics' side, whoever was home; a minus spread means they were favored. The rest of the bets went to the New York Knicks. When money runs well ahead of bets, the larger tickets were on that side; when it trails, the crowd was. See our methodology →
