The New York Knicks and Dallas Mavericks are promising intense NBA action when they meet for the second time this season. Will the Knicks take another narrow escape, or is Dallas poised for an underdog win? Let's get into this match prediction.
The Knicks have not lost grip of their second spot in the Eastern Conference after three straight losses to the Kings, Warriors, and Suns. New York is now in second and could slip all the way to fifth if the Raptors and Cavs win their games in hand. The Knicks have now lost eight of their last ten games, marking their worst spell this season. Now, they host the Mavs in hopes of breaking their losing run.
The problem is, Dallas is back to their winning ways after taking two back-to-back wins over the Jazz, which makes it three wins in their last four. The Mavs are also victorious in five of their last four games, which, if they continue, could see them snatch the Grizzlies' 10th and final qualification playoff spot.
Next on the agenda for Dallas will be getting revenge on the Knicks after losing a hard-fought first meeting 113-111 this season. Everything was settled by half-time as the Knicks and Mavs drew the 3rd and 4th quarter. Can a confident Dallas side now beat an already broken Knicks?

Our New York Knicks vs Dallas Mavericks Prediction
This game could go any way, especially towards the Knicks' direction, considering the Mavs' latest injury woes. However, we're very confident that if Dallas were to lose, it wouldn't be by up to 15 points. The Mavs now edge the Knicks in FG% allowed, while already boasting the lowest 3PT% allowed in the whole league.
What's more, the Knicks notorious attack has lost its spark in recent games. In fact, they've failed to win any of their last 21 games by 15+ points. Hence, our New York Knicks vs Dallas Mavericks prediction is Dallas Mavericks +14.5.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
