Won’t stop. Can’t stop. Will not stop? Well, that depends on the Cleveland Cavaliers, but the New York Knicks are currently rollin’, rollin’, rollin’, rollin’ right now, having won 10 straight playoff games and looking for a second consecutive sweep during this playoff run. Since 1971, there have been 18 sweeps in Conference Finals history, with six of those in the Eastern Conference.

The Knicks will be looking to become the seventh team on Monday.

New York has shot 48%, 52% and 56% in the first three games of this series, while holding Cleveland to 40%, 39% and 50% from the field. After turning the ball over 19 times in Game 1, New York has turned the ball over a total of 23 times in the last two contests.

DraftKings Sportsbook lists New York as a 2.5-point favorite over Cleveland, with the total set at 217.5 points.

Captain’s Picks

OG Anunoby ($11,400 CP): Anunoby often garners a usage rate of 20% or below, but he’s a solid fantasy player due to his ability to contribute in every statistical category. And we are not just talking about sprinkles, but full-body dunks into the batter. During these playoffs, he’s put up at least 30 FPTS in nine of 11 games with four of those over 40 and two over 50 FPTS. I like him to score in the upper range of outcomes as he should get plenty of good looks on offense while being a menace on defense due to the Knicks looking to sweep the leg and flying all over the court like a pack of banshees.

UTIL Plays

Jalen Brunson ($10,000): In the first three games of this series, Brunson received 41, 40 and 46 minutes while garnering a usage rate of 34%, 25% and 32%. Although Karl-Anthony Towns has become more of a hub for the Knicks in this series, Brunson is still the engine that makes the offense, not only go, but purrr like a high-end sports car. While he doesn’t contribute much in the defensive categories, which puts a cap on the upside, Brunson is a professional bucket getter that will get his. The beauty, though, is that Brunson’s game is multifaceted so that he will find the open man if the defense blitzes or converges aggressively on him. He scored 38 and 30 points in two games while dishing 14 dimes in the other. That translated to 58.2, 44.2 and 42.8 FPTS.

Donovan Mitchell ($10,400): Life has been difficult for Mitchell, as the Knicks have the wing defenders to give him problems. After shooting 52% in Game 1, he’s converted 44% and 43% the last two contests. That said, he’s hucked up 23, 18 and 21 shots. The contributions in the peripheral categories haven’t been robust, though. While I think New York rips out Cleveland’s heart, Mola Ram-style in this one, I like Mitchell to go out in a blaze of glory.

Max Strus ($5,600): After playing 28, 25 and 26 minutes in the first three games of the series, Strus received 31 minutes and contributed 13 points, seven rebounds, six assists and a steal, good for 34.8 FPTS. He only shot 4-of-12 from the field, though. I think he gets 30 minutes again in this one due to his ability to be a factor at both ends of the court, and he’s always in play to catch fire. The steals have been nice while he does often provide a decent amount of rebounds and assists.

Fades

James Harden ($8,600): Harden has failed to score 20 points in this series and is shooting 5-of-22 from downtown. New York has the wing defenders to give him problems and can we really trust Harden in an elimination game?

The Outcome

As Johnny Lawrence swept Daniel LaRusso’s leg in Karate Kid, so shall the Knicks to the Cavaliers. The only difference is that Cleveland will not have Mr. Miyagi in the locker room to resuscitate them.

Final Score: Knicks 114, Cavaliers 105
