Why Bet on the New York Knicks?

The New York Knicks just demolished the Memphis Grizzlies 118-104 in their last game, with Julius Randle and Derrick Rose combining for 53 points. But it’s not just their offensive side that caught people’s attention this season. They also have a stout defense that’s fourth in defensive rating in the league, while allowing the lowest points per game at 104.6.

While Rose has been impressive and continues to prove his worth, we recognize the efforts of the entire Knicks team and how they slowly started to form exceptional team chemistry since the start of the season. against the Grizzlies, five Knicks players put scored in double digits. Apart from Randle and Rose, RJ Barrett, Reggie Bullock, and Elfrid Payton also scored at least 10 points each.

Why Bet on the Denver Nuggets?

The Nuggets were not expected to keep up their pace when Jamal Murray went down with a season-ending injury. But rather than crumble and surrender to the pressure, the team reworked its framework to operate well despite the sudden absence of Murray. Players stepped up and eventually delivered what is needed to maintain their goal of making it to the playoffs. They did well and now hold the third spot in the Western Conference standings.

Of course, Nikola Jokić has been a cornerstone of the team. Even though they lost their last game to the Los Angeles Lakers, the big man managed to score 32 points and collect 9 rebounds and 5 assists. Michael Porter Jr. also plays a pivotal role in their 2020-21 campaign, scoring 19 points and recording 6 rebounds in his last outing.

Furthermore, Aaron Gordon also helped the team secure wins in the second half of the regular season. Expect these three names to lead the charge in the upcoming battle between the Knicks vs. Nuggets.
