The Knicks just let the Philadelphia 76ers know all they need to know about how seriously they're taking the Eastern Conference semifinals. The Knicks opened Game 1 with a 39-point thrashing in a show of domination that saw them win all quarters. Can the 76ers repeat their magic comeback against the Celtics in New York? See our match prediction below.
NY are now on a stellar four-game winning run, but more impressively, they stopped all four of their last opponents from scoring up to 100 points. Before 137-98 humiliating the 76ers in Game 1, they closed off their 6-game quarterfinal bout with the Hawks with a record 51-point win. Now they look to blow out Philadelphia again in back-to-back home games.
But if there's anyone who can turn this around in the 2025/26 playoffs, it's the 76ers. Boston took a 3-1 lead over the 76ers in quarterfinals, only to witness a Game 5, 6, and 7 where Philadelphia kept the Celtics to just 97, 93, and 100 points, respectively.
What's more, they drew 2-2 in the regular season with the Knicks, and the two games the 76ers won just happened to be in this stadium, Madison Square Garden. Who wins is questionable, but this game favors the over 209.5 points bet, which has won in all five of their meetings this season.

Our New York Knicks vs Philadelphia 76ers Prediction
Over 209.5 points should be more than possible for this duo, who have met five times this season and dropped nothing fewer than 221 points per game. The Knicks should drive a ton of that volume as they're the most efficient team in field goals (FG) and threes, putting them just behind the Oklahoma City Thunder in offensive rating.
We're also confident in this bet because the 76ers will be desperate in attack to avoid a 2-0 lead, which could guarantee points from their end, while leaving Philadelphia open to counterattacks. Hence, our New York Knicks vs Philadelphia 76ers prediction is more than 209.5 points.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
