New York Knicks

Tom Thibodeau managed to build a great team. The Knicks made their way to the playoffs without much of a star. Moreover, the New York collective made a star out of Julius Randle themselves. This player even took part in an All-Star Game.

In the offseason, the Knickerbockers did not change their roster much. The only worthwhile acquisition was Kemba Walker. The ex-Charlotte player never made it to Boston. As a result, the Celtics traded him to Oklahoma. But Thunder is not the band Walker dreamed of. He managed to buy the contract from the Thunderbirds and joined the Knicks.

Indiana Pacers

Rick Carlisle will be Indiana's head coach this season. This specialist has proven himself well with his work at Dallas. It seems that the Pacers management is not satisfied with results that this team demonstrates. Coaches in Indianapolis have been changing too often lately.

The Pacers will go to the meeting against New York as a non-core team. First of all, they will miss Karis LeVert. Also in the team's infirmary are Edmond Sumner and T.J. Warren. In this case, Rick Carlisle will probably bet on the reservists, because it would be stupid to squeeze all the juices out of Domantas Sabonis before the start of the regular season.

Prediction

Before this confrontation, "New York" looks preferable. Indiana has too many injuries, while the Knicks can play all the players in the match. Thanks to this, Tom Thibodeau's wards are obliged to win the meeting. Perhaps the owners should be preferred.

Our prediction is that New York will win for 1.67 odds in 1xBet.

The absence of key Indiana players is unlikely to allow this team to demonstrate effective play. In face-to-face meetings, the Knicks and Pacers did not impress with spectacular basketball. Most likely, this will not happen now.

Second prediction is for a total under 220.5 points for 1.62.

Place a bet on the line of 1xBet with odds of 1.67.
