Warriors vs. Knicks Prediction
The Warriors have one a mere three road games so far this season. Tonight, they'll be playing without team MVP Stephen Curry, who is unlikely to play again for one month. Draymond Green and Klay Thompson in particular looked sharp on offense in the team's much-needed win over the Raptors. That being said, between the Warriors' road game misfortunes and Curry's extended absence, things aren't looking great for the Oakland crew tonight.
The Knicks, meanwhile, are surging right now with exceptional defense. Unlike the Warriors, they've looked strong on the road lately. At home, the Knicks have a more mediocre 7-7 record but have shown consistency by winning their past three consecutive home games. It's likely going to be a highly competitive game tonight, but ultimately, the Knicks have what it takes to send the home crowd home happy.
Prediction: Knicks -4.5 (-110)
