Command Analysis
New York Knicks
USACurrent form
The Knicks have been playing consistently and are firmly among the top three in the Eastern Conference. Tom Thibodeau's team has built an effective system that allows them to achieve victories on a regular basis. In the last match, New York beat Indiana (128:115), and Karl-Anthony Towns became the main hero of the meeting, scoring 40 points.
The team managed to break away from the closest pursuers in the table, which adds confidence before the next matches. The Knicks' defense is considered one of the best in the league, which gives the team a significant advantage.
New York plays even more confidently on the home court, which makes it the favorite in the confrontation with Atlanta. However, it's too early to relax, because the Hawks have made a good move and intend to continue fighting for higher positions.
Disqualifications and injuries
Mitchell Robinson will not play on the floor due to health problems.
Interesting facts for betting
Since the start of the season, the Knicks have lost only ten times at home.
Approximate line-up: Siakim - Nesmith, Bryant - Haliburton, Nembhard.
Atlanta Hawks
USACurrent form
The Hawks are gradually getting in shape and are already seriously involved in the fight for a place in the playoffs. Quinn Snyder's team scored three consecutive wins, beating Milwaukee (115:110), Washington (125:111) and Orlando (112:106). Trey Young remains the undisputed leader of the team, who leads it forward. Together with Zakkari Risache, he creates a dangerous attacking duo.
Despite the successes, Atlanta remains unstable – after a series of successful matches, a recession often sets in. The away game against the Knicks will be a serious test. If the Hawks can win, it will strengthen their position in the fight for the top 6 of the Eastern Conference.
Disqualifications and injuries
Koby Bafkin, Clint Capela and Jalen Johnson will not play in the next match due to injuries.

A very interesting confrontation is expected. New York looks more stable, the team clearly uses its strengths and has reliable protection. Tom Thibodeau's players approach each match with maximum motivation, and the teamwork of the team makes them the favorite of the upcoming meeting.
Atlanta is known for its powerful attack, and Trey Young and his partners will try to create problems for the hosts. However, there is an alarming moment, because after a series of several victories, the Hawks often lose their concentration and get into a crisis. In our opinion, the Knicks will confirm their status as the favorite and get another victory.
Our prediction is that New York will win, taking into account the handicap (-6) points in 1.78
Bet on the total
Both teams are focused on results, and their last matches were played in an attacking style. The Knicks traditionally try to play number one at home, while Atlanta is clearly not going to slow down after three consecutive wins. Given this, the meeting should be dynamic and productive, and the teams have every chance to break through the overall total.
Forecast - total more than 238 points in 1.66
Betting on statistics
The Knicks are in good shape and feel confident on their home court. Karl-Anthony Towns, Jaylen Brunson and Mikal Bridges are players capable of consistently scoring a lot of points. The hosts are trying to consolidate their positions in the table, so they will play as aggressively as possible. Given the unstable defense of Atlanta, it can be assumed that the Knicks will break through their individual total.
Prediction – New York's individual total is more than 123.5 points per 1.78
