The New York Knicks and Chicago Bulls will meet at Madison Square Garden in the NBA on Friday. The Knicks (49-28) are third in the Eastern Conference standings, while the Bulls (29-47) are in 12th place. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The New York Knicks are in good form coming into this match, having notched up their eighth win in 11 in midweek, beating the Memphis Grizzlies 130-119 on the road.
While we are still not sold that the Knicks can compete with the likes of the Pistons and Celtics come the Playoffs, they were dominant in the last match, scoring 48 points in Q1 and never looking back.
The Knicks have won two of their three games against this opponent this season. They are 27-9 at MSG and have a fully fit roster for this one.
Meanwhile, the Chicago Bulls are going nowhere slowly, having now lost nine of their last 11 games and riding a five-game losing streak after going down to the Pacers 145-126 on Wednesday.
The Bulls have not won consecutive games in over two months and are barely playing a lick of defence recently. They’ve conceded 125+ points in each of their last five games.
The visitors are 11-26 on the road this season and will be without Noa Essengue, Zach Collins, Jalen Smith and Anfernee Simons.
