Command Analysis

New York Knicks

USA

Knicks were looking good, but now they are unable to compete. Team started to lose many games and failed to maintain their spot among the leaders of the Eastern conference. Tom Thibodeau failed to retain control over the team.

New York ended up at the 10th spot of the standings and after recent matches that result is not so bad actually. In the previous match team lost the New York derby to Brooklyn. It was an extremely contested match, but Kevin Durant and James Harden put up a great performance (110:112).

Chicago Bulls

USA

Bulls are having a great season and earned a second spot in the Eastern conference. Board did a great job during the off-season, signing Lonzo Ball and DeMar DeRozan, those players helped the team to improve their performance.

Chicago looks better on away matches, but they also can put up a fight at home. Their previous match was at United Center, in which they recorded a home victory over Charlotte (133:119). Nikola Vucevic was outstanding in this match and eventually recorded a double-double. Now team is approaching the away match at Madison Square Garden, so they should get ready for a tough challenge.

Tip and bets

2.16New York Knicks to win (Including OT)

Chicago is one of the Eastern conference leaders, they are looking great on away matches, but New Yorkers are not an easy opponent to play against. Tom Thibodeau's men need to improve their performance as soon as possible, because 10th position is surely not an acceptable result for them.

We think that fans' support and desire to get back on top will help New York to get the victory in the match against the Bulls. They also will be a slight underdog in this match, so there won't be too much pressure on them.

Our prediction - New York to win the match (Including OT)
