Command Analysis
New York Knicks
USACurrent form
New Yorkers have found their place in the sun, as they are closing in on the third place in the Eastern Conference. The team cannot catch up with Boston, but even so, Tom Thibodeau's players can be satisfied with their performances and the overall result this season.
The Knicks lost two games in a row, which somewhat upset the players. The team couldn't handle the Cavs at first (105:142), and in the last meeting lost to the Celtics (105:118). It immediately became clear that the team has something to work on, because as soon as a more serious opponent comes across, defensive failures begin. New York is preparing for a home game against unstable Philadelphia, where they will have the opportunity to rehabilitate themselves in front of their home stands. The key players are in the ranks, so the hosts are expected to play accordingly.
Disqualifications and injuries
Kevin McCullar and Mitchell Robinson will not play in the next match due to injuries.
Interesting facts for betting
The Knicks have won 20 home games this season.
Approximate line-up: Anunobi - Barnes, Towns - Brunson, Bridges.
Philadelphia 76ers
USACurrent form
It seems that the Sixers themselves no longer want to fight for a place in the top ten of the East. The team fails even where it would be possible to take points without any problems. Nick Ners has been dealing with a lot of injuries, which affects the depth of the squad and his teamwork. Tyrese Max cannot carry the club alone, and Joel Embiid and Paul George are often injured.
Philadelphia has not been able to win for a long time, and in the last meeting against Chicago, they lost once again, even more defeatingly (110:142). Against the background of the opponent, the Pennsylvania team looked uncertain, and the game was not going well at all. There is a difficult trip to New York ahead, and again the chances of success are low. On the other hand, no one canceled the fight.
Disqualifications and injuries
Eric Gordon and Jared McCain will not take to the floor due to health problems.
Interesting facts for betting
Philadelphia can't win for eight games.
Approximate composition: George- Oubre, Yabusele-Grimes, Maxie.

1.94Tip and bets
Two defeats in a row should have brought New York to its senses. The team is among the top three in the East, so it must live up to its status and respond quickly to such setbacks. The next match will be held at home, so the home court factor and the support of the home stands will be on the side of the New Yorkers.
It's hard to say what can help Philadelphia right now. The team is breaking through the bottom more and more every day and has already moved closer to the top three outsiders, while skipping Brooklyn ahead. The Sixers have no choice but to wait for their chance, even though it may take a long time. In our opinion, the Knicks look stronger now.
Our betting tip is for New York to win with a head start of (-8) points in 1.70
Bet on the total
The hosts will have the motivation to break the two-game losing streak, especially since the game will be played on their home court. The Knicks are great at attacking, especially when key players are in the lineup, which, in principle, they are now. We expect Philadelphia to play to the fullest, because the team will have to go all-in to try to fix the situation. In this case, we suggest betting on the total more.
Betting Tip - total more than 228.5 points for 1.75
Betting on statistics
The Knicks will be at home, supported by their home crowd and motivated after two consecutive losses. The team understands that it is necessary to take advantage of such a chance as the instability of Philadelphia, and, most likely, it will prove itself properly. One gets the impression that New York will play aggressively, which will help it break through the individual total.
Prediction – New York's individual total is over 119 points in 1.74
