New York Knicks: News & Form
After 4 wins in their first 5 games, the Knicks have slowed down and appear to be struggling in the last few games. 9th NBA attack with 109.6 points scored on average per game, New York is suffering in defense, while Tom Thibodeau’s players are averaging 109.2 points per game this season. Defeated in the night from Friday to Saturday by the Hornets (104-96), the Knicks were very clumsy in attack, with an address at half mast and a total of 19 ball losses. It will thus be necessary to show a completely different face during this meeting to recover and move forward, while New York has a victory behind Philadelphia, 6th.
Indiana Pacers: news and form
On the Pacers’ side, the dynamic is very different: after a complicated start to the season, with 4 defeats in its first 5 meetings, the Indiana team has recovered and thus remains on 5 wins in 9 games, including prestigious success, against the Knicks (111-98) but also the Jazz (100-111) or the Sixers (118-113). Rick Carlisle’s players therefore approach this meeting with full confidence and will rely on a seemingly tight-knit collective, made up in particular of several players with more than 15 points on average, such as Malcom Brogdon, TJ Warren, Domantas Sabonis or Caris LeVert. Feverish in defense, the Pacers should rely on an effective attack, 11th in the NBA with 109.1 points on average per game.
The Knicks are in a bad dynamic and have had great difficulties at home since the start of the season, they who have lost 4 of the 6 games played at Madison Square Garden. The Pacers have, for their part, assets that can tip the match in their favor and arrive in New York boosted by a good series of victories. A success tonight could well happen.

More offensive than defensive this season, both teams should rely on their attack to win this match and make the powder speak. Very unstable defensively this season at home, New York may once again let its opponent score, but the Knicks should return the favor to the Pacers. A high point total therefore seems quite likely.
