LiontipsNew York Knicks - Toronto Raptors: betting tip (kef 1.72) and bets on the NBA match
Command Analysis
Current form
On April 10, at the legendary Madison Square Garden, the audience got exactly what they love about basketball - drama, rhythm, and character. The Boston Celtics came to visit the Knicks, and the match turned out to be in the NBA textbooks right now. The result is 112:106 in favor of the hosts, but behind these numbers lies a real chess game on the floor. The first quarter was left to the guests — 29:26, and it seemed that Boston was in control of the situation. But the Knicks are a team that knows how to be patient. In the second, they neatly, without too much fuss, turned the tide of the game — 28:24, and left for the big break with a tiny but important advantage.
The third quarter is back for the Celtics — 30:27, and now the intrigue is twisted to the limit. And then there's the signature New York character. In the fourth quarter, the hosts literally crushed the opponent — 31:23, and they did it the way only confident teams can. Josh Hart became the main character — 26 points, confidence in every shot, composure at key moments. The Knicks are currently third in the East (52-28), and the playoffs are not their goal, but their starting point.
Current form
The Raptors hosted the Miami Heat on April 10 and put on a real show — 128:114. Moreover, they started in such a way that the opponent could not recover for a long time. The first quarter is 32:26, a confident start. The second was generally devastating, 37:24, and by the big break the difference already looked like a verdict — plus 19. Toronto played fast, aggressively and with obvious pleasure.
In the third quarter, Miami tried to come back — 40:33, and for a moment there was a whiff of intrigue. But the Raptors turned on the cold calculation in time — 26:24 in the final segment and calmly bringing the match to victory. Brandon Ingram gave a real concert — 38 points, 7 rebounds, 7 assists. It was the case when the player literally leads the team behind him. R.J. Barrett scored 22 points and 6 rebounds. Toronto is currently fifth in the East (45:35) and is clearly aiming for a direct playoff berth.
Tip and bets
The Knicks, after defeating Boston, look like a team that knows exactly what it wants. They have balance, depth of the squad and, most importantly, confidence in the endings. Hart, Brunson, and Towns are no longer just a set of surnames, but a real system. Toronto is the mood team. At home, they can rip anyone apart, as was the case with Miami. But on the road, the picture often changes: concentration is lost somewhere, protection is sagging somewhere. Let's add to this the injury factor: the situation is more stable for the hosts, while the guests have personnel losses. And we get a logical conclusion — the Knicks look stronger in this pair.
Our prediction is that New York will win by a handicap of (-4.5) points in 1.72
