Knicks vs. Warriors Predictions For NBA On ABC, 3/15

If it feels like you just saw a Knicks vs. Warriors predictions matchup, that’s because you did. These teams met just 11 days ago, but this time, they’ll be all the way across the country at Chase Center.

As for their matchup on March 4 at Madison Square Garden, it was a 114-102 win for Golden State. They’ve been on a tear as of late, as the trade for Jimmy Butler seems to have fully re-ignited the team. They’re entering this matchup on a six-game winning streak while also having gone 9-1 in their last 10 games.

Regarding the Knicks side of the matchup, this is going to be their final game of a five-game road trip on the west coast. Will that be a positive or negative for this rematch? That’s what the best bet from our Knicks vs. Warriors predictions will help answer!

 

 

 

New York Knicks: Silencing The Doubters

As mentioned right from the start, the Knicks were able to sneak away with a one-point overtime victory the last time they took the court. However, that came against a Portland Trail Blazers team well out of playoff positioning, which brings us to what has been the knock on the Knicks all season.

That would be the fact that they’ve bolstered their record by beating the bad teams, but struggle mightily when facing the top competition. The Warriors may not be a top-four spot, but given how they’ve played the past two months or so, this would be considered a top-tier opponent for New York to try and silence their doubters.

 

 

 

Golden State Warriors: Curry Continuing To Make History

Speaking of silencing doubters, that’s exactly what Golden State has been doing. It’s also exactly what Stephen Curry has been doing since his way back in his Davidson days and his Cinderella run through March Madness.

Although he became the NBA’s all-time leading three-point scorer what feels like forever ago now, he reached another milestone in the Warriors recent win over the Kings. He reached a whopping 4,000 career made three-pointers en route to a 26-point win over the in-state rival Sacramento Kings.

Knicks vs. Warriors Best Bet: First Quarter Under 59.5 Points (-110 at DraftKings Sportsbook)

Ok, perhaps we’re not directly answering our previous question with our Knicks vs. Warriors predictions, but we’d prefer to avoid a side for our best bet. However, if you insist on sticking with that approach, it’s all about how you think New York will feel in this spot.

A final game of such a grueling road trip could mean that they just want to get out and head back east, or they could use the extra rest to their advantage having last played on Wednesday night. Rather than trusting that rest and how head coach Tom Thibodeau handles minutes, we’re going to focus on a slow start out of the gates.

Even with the Warriors playing so well recently, they still aren’t lighting things up from the opening tip. They’ve scored the fifth-fewest points in the first half per game, and their defense was impressive early on by allowing just 18 points to the Kings on Thursday night. Speaking of which, this will also be their fourth straight home game.

As for the Knicks, they may not be as dominant on defense as they’re usually known for, but they’ve allowed just 21 and 22 points in the first quarter in their last two games. Even the 51 first quarter points when these teams met earlier this month required some shots we don’t expect to go down again.

With all that in mind, we’re taking the under 59.5 first quarter points (-110 at DraftKings Sportsbook) as the best bet from our Knicks vs. Warriors predictions.
