Matchup: New York Knicks vs. Brooklyn Nets

It’s rivalry week in the NBA, which means fans are in-store for some great matchups. In the East, we will see the New York Knicks taking on the Brooklyn Nets. The all-time series record between the Knicks and Nets is 104-107, with Brooklyn leading the charge. Last season the series ended in a 2-2 tie, but this year the Knicks have the advantage, as New York beat Brooklyn 121-102 in their first meeting of the season. The Knicks are 5th in the East (26-17) and the Nets are 11th (17-25), and despite it being a home game for Brooklyn, New York is favored. 

The Nets are not title contenders, while the Knicks are fully expected to make the playoffs. The two New York sides are on opposing trajectories. The Nets went 2-8 in their last 10, while the Knicks went 8-2. Brooklyn is coming off a horrendous loss to the LA Clippers, where the Nets were outscored 15-41 in the 4th after being up 20+ points, while the Knicks are on a 3-game winning streak, holding opponents under 100 points in 4 of their last 5.   

The Knicks should win this one, but in a rivalry game you never know what’s going to happen. Below you’ll find our Knicks vs. Nets predictions, including: stats, scores, and betting advice.

Knicks vs. Nets Game Predictions

In the 212th game between the New York Knicks and the Brooklyn Nets, I’m going with the Knicks. In Brooklyn’s last 10 games they’ve only won twice, and that’s because they can’t score. The Nets average 108.9 points per game over their last 10, and they now face one of the best defensive units in the NBA. The Knicks suffocating defense has held opponents to just 100.4 points in their last 10 games. It’s unlikely the Nets reach 100 points against New York, making it increasingly unlikely that Brooklyn wins the game. 

 

Moneyline Pick: New York Knicks (-148)

ATS Pick: New York Knicks (-3.0)

O/U Pick: Under (224.5)

Score: Knicks 115; Nets 107
