Separately, we note that this season teams have already played 2 matches, both in Chicago. The game on October 29th, 2021 ended with a score of 103:104 and on November 22, with a score of 109:103.
New York Knicks
Memphis managed to win two victories without Morant. Not long ago Jah was injured. It seemed that now the situation with the game of “bears” would worsen. Oddly enough, the Grizzlies played better. It looks like the Memphis players stopped looking for Morant’s passes and started making extraordinary decisions. This puzzled the opponent. In the first match Jenkins’ charges tore apart Sacramento at home (128:101). In the second match Toronto was beaten (98:91) on the road. In those meetings Memphis did not have a single leader. All players showed a real team game.
Chicago Bulls
The Bulls are having a decent season and the second line in the Eastern Conference is proof of this. The management worked competently in the offseason, when they strengthened the roster of Lonzo Ball and DeMar DeRozan, because the game of these guys helped the club to reach its current level. Chicago feels better in away confrontations, although they can fight back at home. The previous match took place at the United Center arena, where the hosts dealt with Charlotte (133-119). Nikola Vucevic shone on the floor as best he could and eventually completed a double-double. Ahead is a difficult exit to Madison Square Garden, so it is worth preparing properly.
Prediction
On the one hand, there is Chicago, which is one of the leaders of the East and demonstrates a stable away game, but the New Yorkers are far from being an easy opponent. Tom Thibodeau's wards are well aware that it is time to wake up, because the tenth line clearly does not correspond to their status. We assume that the support of the stands and the desire to return to the previous level will help New York in the confrontation with the Bulls. The hosts will take the role of an outsider, which will further increase their motivation. Our prediction is a victory for the New York Knicks, taking into account overtime for a coefficient of 2.16 in BC 1xBet. Recently, the Knicks have been acting exclusively in a defensive manner, as the attack does not bring the desired result. In our opinion, the hosts will not change their tactics and will not allow the opponent to accelerate, so we offer a bet on the bottom. Second bet is for the total under 218 points for 1.60.
