Brooklyn Nets at New York Knicks Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
The Big Apple has suffered a long draught of basketball proficiency which is atypical for a city that loves hoops as much as anyone. Both the Nets and Knicks have been perpetual bottom-feeders in the Eastern Conference and both are looking to change that fairly soon. For the Knicks, trading away their best player small forward Carmelo Anthony may have seemed to have sealed New York’s short-term fate as it rebuilds. The Nets on the hand have shown some sparks of improvement. Most recently, the Nets are coming into this contest off a huge home win against the Cleveland Cavaliers where the Nets were nearly a double-digit favorite at the close.

Brooklyn Nets at New York Knicks NBA Game Pick
If there was one thing that could be certain from the narratives surrounding both teams so far it is that both are due for correction. The Knicks are bound to get a win and cover, the Nets are prone to lose both outright and against the spread. This contest seems like the ideal scenario for both to happen; we won’t spot extra points however in banking on that. So far, the Nets in particular have had the hot hand on offense. Brooklyn has broken the 120-point mark in their last four games and are averaging a NBA best 121.6 points per game. Typically, this rivalry is a high-scoring one as well so this contest plays right into Brooklyn’s hands. However, that can change with the Knicks using their one strength: defense. Though the Knicks are one of the worst offensive teams in the league, they are one of the best in the defensive rebounding department (6th in NBA). Limiting the Nets’ league-best scoring offense in second chances will result in New York slowing down Brooklyn and bringing us under the number in the Over/Under.
