New York Knicks (34-17) versus Boston Celtics (36-15) is a high-stakes matchup in the Eastern Conference on Saturday night. The Knicks are giving chase in the conference race, sitting third, 7.0 games behind the Cavs and only 2.0 behind the Celtics. They are arguably the most in-form team in the conference right now after winning eight of their last 10 matches. A win for them would take them closer to the Celtics, who are on a four-match winning run. The Celtics are still hanging onto the race to top the Eastern Conference and must win most of their remaining matches to topple the Cavaliers at the top. They failed to make it five wins on the bounce against the Mavericks on Thursday night after losing 120-127 at home. We could see some tired legs here.
