Knicks News: Vegas Oddsmaker Says NY Would Be Heavy Favorites Over Undefeated Kentucky

You've likely heard the question this week -- could the currently-undefeated Kentucky Wildcats make the jump to NBA competition and actually take down the struggling New York Knicks?

One Vegas sportsbook, Westgate Las Vegas Race And Sports Book, released their odds for a hypothetical Wildcats/Knicks matchup on Friday, installing the Knicks as double-digit favorites.

"I doubt it, I doubt it,’’ Early said, via Yahoo! Sports. “I completely doubt it. It’s a different game – in the paint – it’s 10 times more physical. I doubt it. Everybody makes statements they believe in. Some people believe that. I’m one of the people who don’t."
