Game Prediction
This is a matchup between two teams that need to get a win today. Neither team is playing particularly well, and both fan bases are about one and a half losses away from hitting the panic button. However, when we go through who is a little bit less than a slump and who has a little more hope for the upcoming postseason, you have to side with the visitors. Therefore, I am picking the New York Knicks to not only cover the spread but also win outright.
