The Knicks recently met with Oklahoma, January 4 on the road, and lost 107:117. With this match began a bad series of the team, which reached three consecutive matches. After Okla, New Yorkers lost away to Chicago (126:139), and at home failed to cope with Orlando (94:103).
Next, the Knicks hosted Toronto at home and broke the losing streak. New York showed itself in defense, conceding less than a hundred points and outplayed one of the main outsiders of this season 114:98.
Thus, the Knicks strengthened in third place in the Eastern Conference, which they occupied with a balance of 25-13. Above are only the reigning champion Boston and Cleveland, which is still going for the NBA record for the balance of victories.
Oklahoma City Thunder
The Thunder have won 15 straight games in the regular season, losing only to Milwaukee in the NBA Cup Finals, which did not go to the regular season standings. The 15 straight wins, however, is a record in the history of the franchise, which has been based in Oklahoma since 2008.
Again, the winning streak was interrupted in the previous game - Mark Dayno's team lost to Eastern Conference leader Cleveland on the road. 122:129 - in general, the game was equal and, as Cavs coach Kenny Atkinson said, playoff level, but the Thunder's opponent was a bit luckier.
Expert Betting Tips
After conceding nearly 130 points against Cleveland, Oklahoma has worsened its defensive efficiency rating, but is still going for the second-best defense this season. New York is seventh in average passing offense, and that's a good reason to bet on a total under in the upcoming game. We will stop here, as the outcome of the match, in our opinion, can be anything.
