New York Knicks vs. Charlotte Hornets prediction
Is it crazy to think that New York can win its fifth-straight game? Against a team that the Knicks beat exactly a week ago? I hope not because that’s what I’m going with.
As I mentioned, the Hornets have far more to lose, especially since they’re coming off a tough loss. New York’s looking the best that it has all season, though, and I think that it’s a combination of younger players spending more time on the court and the team being able to solely focus on playing basketball.
The Knicks are here to ruin seeding for play-in/playoff teams and that’s what’s going to continue to happen on Wednesday.
We’re taking the Knicks -1 and under 225.5 points.
New York 112, Charlotte 109.
What channel is the New York Knicks-Charlotte Hornets game on?
