The New York Knicks (48-32) head to Brooklyn for a crucial showdown with the Nets (32-48). Every NBA team has just two games remaining in the regular season, and the Knicks could still finish as high as 2nd in the East, and as low as 6th. Alternatively, the Nets have absolutely nothing to play for at this stage of the season, as they have already been eliminated from playoff contention.

Tonight, the Knicks (47-32) have a daunting trip to Boston to take on the league leading Celtics (62-17). Boston has already clinched the best record across the entire league, and they have absolutely nothing to play for tonight. They had their 5-game win streak snapped by the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday night. And while the Celtics would love to take some momentum into the postseason, they will not be risking any injuries to do so.

Tonight, the Knicks (44-30) will look to get back on track when they head to Miami to take on the Heat (41-33). This is a critical game for both teams, as the Eastern Conference playoff race could not be tighter. Just 3 games separate the 3rd place Cavaliers and the 7th place Heat. And with the Knicks squished in the middle, this will be a high intensity affair in Miami.

Tonight, the Knicks (44-28) look to extend their hot streak against another bottom feeder, the San Antonio Spurs (17-56). San Antonio has ROY frontrunner Victor Wembanyama leading the charge, and his impact on the floor cannot be overstated. His defensive awareness, combined with his incredible physical attributes, have made it so teams don’t even drive into the lane when his limbering body is parked in the paint.

Tonight, the Knicks (43-28) head to Toronto to take on the plummeting Raptors (23-49). Toronto has lost 11 straight games, and there is really no light at the end of the tunnel for the Raptors. They traded away OG Anunoby, Pascal Siakam, Precious Achiuwa, and Dennis Schroder this season, leaving them with an unrecognizable starting lineup.

Tonight, the Knicks (42-28) will look to keep their newfound momentum going, as they get a visit from the lowly Detroit Pistons (12-59), who are merely playing out the rest of the season. The Pistons were expected to have a 30+ win season as they came out of their rebuild. However, between injuries, poor coaching, and plenty of close losses, Detroit finds themselves in the basement of the league once again.

Tonight, the Knicks (40-27) continue their road trip with a visit to San Francisco to take on the Golden State Warriors (35-31). Golden State is currently sitting in the 9th seed in the Western Conference and appears destined to feature in the play-in tournament, with -2000 odds to do so.

Handicapping the NBA Title Odds for Western Conference Contenders
by Spencer Toth - 3/15/2024

There is no shortage of title contenders in the Western Conference, with a whopping 8 teams coming in with +3500 or shorter title odds. There are a pair of obvious contenders, reigning champions the Denver Nuggets (+350) and front-loaded LA Clippers (+500), who have emerged as the clear favorites, but there are still plenty of other teams capable of making waves. It’s hard to justify a multiple-month bet with such short prices, but at +2000 or +3000, it’s a much easier pill to swallow.
