Our Boston Celtics vs New York Knicks Prediction

The Knicks will want to recover from their worst loss during the Tom Thibodeau era. A clobbering by Boston could demoralize the team after a solid campaign so far.

They have been dominant against Atlantic Division teams lately, winning eight of their last 10 assignments. The defending champions also have a 7-1 record in their previous clashes with the Knicks, winning four of their last five at home. Moreover, over points were scored in four of the last meetings between these sides, whereas Boston is 5-1 against the spread over the previous six clashes.
