Pronostic Heat – Knicks 04/03/2023

Knicks strong enough to win in Miami?

The Miami Heat and the New York Knicks are increasingly serious candidates for direct qualification in the NBA play-off. A quest already well advanced for New York, which is taking advantage of the fall of its neighbor, Brooklyn, to settle in 5th place. Miami, 7th, intends to take advantage of the space that should open up.

The Heat and the Knicks then meet to compete for 5th place in this conference, which is more interesting for the play-offs. We could give an advantage to the Knicks, winners of their last seven games. But the Heat is also very dangerous against the big teams.

Miami Heat: news and form

Miami is getting closer to its goal of direct qualification for the play-offs. In 7th place, the Heat are only two victories behind the 6th, Brooklyn, in full free fall in the standings. There’s little doubt that the Heat will eventually overtake the Nets. Then the question arises of the fight for 5th place, held by New York.

Because, if Miami appears with one of the worst attacks (last in points scored, 23rd in assists), its defense is wreaking havoc (2nd best in points conceded). We also see a much higher involvement in major events, such as against Philadelphia on Monday evening (101-97 victory).

However, the Heat also lack consistency and, despite their flashiness, they often struggle to finish games. Jimmy Butler and company have lost five times in their last six games. The dynamic is clearly not in their favour.

New York Knicks: news and form

The Knicks are in great shape right now. While they seem to have secured a place for the play-offs, they could even dream of more in the event of a misstep from Cleveland, 4th. To do this, they need to take cover by winning in Miami and maintaining their excellent momentum.

Tom Thibodeau and his men have won their last seven games. This is an eternity that such a series had not been achieved by the Knicks and it comes to reward the defensive qualities of this team, but also the form of its leaders. Julius Randle and Jalen Brunson achieve a season worthy of an All Star level, the first has also won this award.

In this defensive duel with Miami, New York should have the weapons to win. The defense is good, in the style advocated by Thibodeau. And the offensive leaders are efficient and regular, even against the big teams.
