New York Knicks vs Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA

 by Joseph King | in NBA Predictions

A blockbuster Friday evening showdown in the NBA pits two of the league’s best teams against one another as the New York Knicks host the OKC Thunder. The Knicks are third in the Eastern Conference with a 25-13 record while the Thunder sit atop the West at 30-6. Let’s get into the prediction for this must-see match!

The Knicks take to Madison Square Garden looking to make it two wins in a row following their 112-98 bounceback home win over the Raptors on Wednesday. New York had previously lost three in a row just prior to the victory, marking the first time this season that they suffered defeat in more than two consecutive games.

The Knicks are 12-5 in their home gym this season and have won four of their last five outings at MSG.

Holders of the second-best record in the NBA at the moment, the Thunder have been flexing their title credentials. They currently possess arguably the league’s best defense, ranking second in opponent points allowed and first in adjusted defensive rating.

Additionally, they have at their service the current betting favorite for the MVP award in Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.

OKC’s last outing saw the NBA’s two best records going head-to-head as the Thunder would fall to a 129-122 away defeat to the Cavaliers. The loss snapped a 10-game winning streak overall (15 straight in the regular season) for the Thunder.

Our New York Knicks vs Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction

This should be a fascinating matchup as we will see the unstoppable force that is the Knicks offense up against the immovable object that is the OKC defense. OKC ran out winners on their home court when these two squads faced off last week.

However, there were plenty of positives for New York to take away after putting up 66 in the first half before collapsing in the fourth quarter. This is a good revenge spot in front of what will be a raucous crowd at the Garden. Our New York Knicks vs OKC Thunder prediction: Knicks +2.5.

Prediction :

 

Knicks +2.5
