Knicks Analysis: Possible dark horse in the postseason
In their previous game, New York managed to secure a victory on the road against the struggling Bucks, breaking their streak of 4 losses out of their last 5 matches. Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart were on a mission, being incredibly agile and fearless while running into the paint.
Jalen Brunson leads the Knicks in scoring with an average of 28.2 points per game, while Julius Randle contributes 24 points, 9.2 rebounds, and 5 assists per game, making them the team’s primary offensive threats this season. However the Knicks will need to space the floor better if they would like to not entirely rely on Brunson for their deep shots.
Bulls Analysis: Truly underwhelming
Chicago suffered their 6th defeat in 9 games after falling to the Magic on the road last Sunday evening. The Bulls have not managed to find their mojo when Lonzo Ball is out of the picture, with most players looking for mid range shots due to their lack of playmaking.
DeMar DeRozan provides a nightly contribution of 23.6 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 5.3 assists, showcasing his two way skills on the court. Meanwhile, Nikola Vucevic, with his 17.6 points and 10.6 rebounds, proves to be a valuable asset in the paint.
Our basketball analysis suggests this should be a rather easy task for the Knicks, as they have big men which can control the paint against a heavily mid range shooting reliant Bulls.
