A big game is going to happen in New York as the Knicks will host Golden State Warriors. The Knicks have been one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference recently and with 17 wins and 13 losses, they are in 6th place. The Warriors are only the 11th-best team in the Western Conference with 15 wins and 16 losses. In this game, I'm going with New York and their spread.

The Knicks have the longest winning streak currently in the league with 7 in a row. 3 wins have been at home versus Cleveland, Atlanta and Sacramento. All those teams have more wins than losses this season and all wins at MSG have been by at least 11 points. During this win streak, the Knicks have only the 13th-best offense (113.5) but their defense has been stellar as it has been the best (99) with a 2nd-best net rating (14.5).

This will be the Warriors' 5th road game in a row but they will end the trip on Wednesday night against the Nets. They have just 1 win in the previous 4 road games as they were able to beat the Raptors which was without OG Anunoby and Gary Trent. Despite this win, it's going to be very tough without Stephen Curry. On the road, the champs have won only 3 games out of 17. The situation isn't better at covering the spread, as they have done it just 4 times away from home. 9 times this season Golden State has been an away underdog and they have covered the spread just 3 times.

Curry had a great season prior to the injury. He has the 2nd +/- in the team and only 4 more players have the rating positive. Golden State has only 1 lineup without Curry which has a positive differential. In 59 minutes, the lineup of Joran Poole, Klay Thompson, Donte DiVincenzo, Anthony Lamb and Draymond Green has a +7 differential. During the last 7 games, the Warriors have the 20th-best offense (112.5), the 11th-best defense (113.7) and the 14th-best net rating (-1.2).

一场重要的比赛将在纽约举行，尼克斯队将主场迎战金州勇士队。尼克斯是最近东部最好的球队之一，他们17胜13负，排在第6位。勇士队15胜16负，在西部排名第11位。在这场比赛中，我选纽约队和他们的优势。

尼克斯拥有目前联盟最长的7连胜纪录。其中3场是在主场对阵骑士、老鹰和国王。所有这些球队本赛季的胜场多于败场，在MSG的所有胜利都至少领先11分。在这轮连胜中，尼克斯的进攻(113.5分)仅排在第13位，但他们的防守却非常出色，因为他们的防守是最好的(99分)，净效率(14.5分)排在第二。

这将是勇士队连续第五次客场比赛，但他们将在周三晚上对阵篮网的比赛中结束这次客场之旅。他们在过去的4场客场比赛中只赢了1场，因为他们能够击败没有阿努比和加里·特伦特的猛龙。尽管赢得了这场胜利，但没有斯蒂芬·库里的比赛将会非常艰难。在客场，冠军在17场比赛中只赢了3场。这种情况在覆盖差价方面并不好，因为他们在离家仅4次的地方就做到了。本赛季勇士队有9次在客场处于劣势，但他们只赢了3次。

库里在受伤前有一个很棒的赛季。他在球队中拥有第2 +/-，只有4名球员拥有积极的评价。勇士只有一个没有库里的阵容，这有积极的差距。在59分钟的时间里，乔兰·普尔、克莱·汤普森、多特·迪文森佐、安东尼·兰姆和德拉蒙德·格林的阵容有+7的差距。在过去的7场比赛中，勇士的进攻(112.5分)排在第20位，防守(113.7分)排在第11位，净效率(-1.2分)排在第14位。
