Five years ago, we would have spoken of a sad match between two ugly ducklings to decide between the best tanker between the Knicks and the Nets. This year the poster should have been a shock of the Eastern Conference… For this evening it is missed in any case.

# THE MATCH OF THE NIGHT, FINALLY ACCORDING TO US
Knicks – Nets (1h30) : Grizzlies, Bulls, Warriors, Suns or Jazz are out tonight? Very little for us. Tonight we are on a classico from classico derby type in New York. Kevin Durant, Ben Simmons, Joe Harris, RJ Barrett, Derrick Rose and Nerlens Noel (lol), the list of absentees is as long as Tacko Fall’s arm. Fortunately, as the game is away for the Nets, we think we can find Kyrie Irving… Oh wait! The match is still in New York, it’s stupid huh. On top of that, hello dynamics for both teams. Eleven defeats in twelve games for the Nets, while the Knicks are eight losses in the last ten games, the last of which was in overtime against the Thunder, symptomatic of a poor form that has lasted since… October 19. So why watch this game anyway? Already because we will see Seth Curry and Dédé Drummond again with a Nets jersey. Then because it’s Wednesday Panzani and this match is an ideal candidate to host the biggest craziness. Impossible to tell you exactly who will do completely insane things tonight but from Julius Randle to Andre Drummond, we have potential Gerards who could well bring glory to this day like no other.
# TO MONITOR ALSO
- Yesterday, Trae Young stuck 41 checkers in a Hawks win over the Cavs. Against the Magic, there should be room to do at least the same.
- Notice to mullet lovers, Kenrich Williams is not playing tonight. That’s one less reason to want to watch the Thunder.
- The Celtics can chain a tenth victory in a row after their walkover against Philly. Facing the Pistons, it should be manageable.
- No Rudy Gay for the Jazz against the Lakers but another Rudy will be there to face Anthony Davis.
- The Blazers are one of the in-form teams in the West. This sentence is incredible. To see now if they will be able to resist the Grizzlies when we could have the return of Ja Morant to face Anfernee Simons.
- Six games at 35 points or more for DeMar DeRozan. To see if the Kings defense can prevent him from planting a seventh. LOL.
- MVP duel between Curry and Jokic, the stat sheet could end up completely black.
Tapas evening with 11 games on the menu for maximum pleasure. We’ll be able to peck everywhere over the gluttony and given the number of arsonists who are out tonight, we should have something to enjoy. We take full advantage of it because it’s the last Panzani Wednesday before the All-Star Break.
