Betting on the New York Knicks
- Regular Season Record: 31-27
The New York Knicks will travel to a foreign soil after facing the Brooklyn Nets on February 13. The current performance of this squad is far from being negative: they won three of the four games held before facing the Brooklyn franchise.
Actually, playing on the road has not been a hindrance for this team when it comes to putting in a good performance since it has a positive record of 16 wins and 12 losses so far in this condition. Thus, the team is ranked seventh overall in the Eastern Conference.
Furthermore, in their last three visits to Atlanta, they have recorded two victories in which they have limited their opponents’ attacks.
Betting on the Atlanta Hawks
- Regular Season Record: 29-28
The Atlanta Hawks, meanwhile, took advantage of two consecutive home games to put their record in positive numbers, but they played on Monday against the Charlotte Hornets at the Spectrum Center.
However, they will quickly return home to try to continue to improve their numbers, as they currently boast of 15 wins and 11 losses when it comes to seeing action at State Farm Arena.
Surely, one of the strengths that keeps this franchise in the top 10 of the overall standings in the Eastern Conference is the good performance in the offensive department, averaging 116.4 points per matchup so far.
JefeBet Prediction
The locals have an advantage in this match because of two main reasons: first, they play on their own court; and, second, the last match in this scenario against this same rival ended with a resounding victory for the home team.
Despite this, New York’s current momentum suggests that they won’t make things easy for the locals, especially due to the great performance it has shown when playing on the road, which is a virtue that very few teams in the league can boast of.
Therefore, the Knicks are expected to push their opponent to the limit and possibly salvage one more win for their record.
Prediction: New York Knicks Spread.
