Our New York Knicks vs Detroit Pistons Prediction
The Knicks’ 34-point win over the Bucks is a confidence-boosting win for the team who had lost four of their last five games prior to the win. However, Monday’s matchup with the up-and-coming Pistons presents a new challenge for the Knickerbockers, who are 1-2 on their current home stand. The Pistons are becoming more dangerous in each win they earn, so it’s important for the Knicks to assert their presence early on to thwart these resilient foes. Ultimately, I believe Towns and Brunson will impose their presence on the court, towing the Knicks to another dominant home win. Our betting prediction for the New York Knicks vs. Detroit Pistons: Knicks will cover -7.5 points.
Prediction:
Knicks will cover -7.5 points
