The San Antonio Spurs pulled themselves together and won four straight, before falling to the Phoenix Suns. Their opponent controlled the match and looked relaxed on the home court, so the Suns (104-108) won the game no matter how hard the visitors tried. Now the Spurs will have a chance to rectify the situation at the AT&T Center arena.

New York Knicks:

The New York Knicks need to rebuild and change tactics as soon as possible, otherwise, the club will be outside the play-off zone. Few had expected such a turnaround after a good start to the season.

Down in Alamo City for the night.

Tom Thibodeau’s men lost three straight games as they failed to beat the Brooklyn Nets in the city derby (110-112), then lost to the Chicago Bulls (115-119) and were defeated by the Denver Nuggets (99-113). As you can see, the New York Knicks are going through one of the hardest periods in the league.

San Antonio Spurs vs New York Knicks Tips:

Despite their last defeat, the San Antonio Spurs deserved the praise. The team managed to show that all was not yet lost. There’s no doubt that Gregg Popovich will fight all the way to the end, the more so because their chances of making the playoffs have improved.

The New York Knicks are in a position to win at all costs. The team faces the task of snapping their losing streak and getting back into the top ten in the East. Given that the Knicks will enter the game with their optimal lineup and more motivated than ever, we’d prefer a win for the visitors.

Our first prediction and bet are the Knicks to win with the odds of 1.86 with the VBet bookmaker.

In such a tough encounter, we’re unlikely to see a productive game. The home team is focused on defense, just like the Knicks, who haven’t been very sharp offensively lately.

Our second prediction and bet are total match points under 217.5 with the odds of 1.62 with the Vbet bookmaker.
