New York Knicks - Atlanta Hawks: betting tip (kef 1.71) and bets on the NBA match

Current form 

The Knicks finished the regular season with a confident win. Yes, the last match against the Charlotte Hornets (96-110) looked like a rehearsal without the main actors, but coaches look at such games at the end of the season differently — as an opportunity to check the depth of the bench. The game in New York did not start according to the script: the first quarter went to the guests (20:30), then the Knicks tried to turn on, clung on, even aligned individual segments, but without key figures, there was not enough gravity at crucial moments. The result is minus 14, but don't panic. But Miles McBride shot brilliantly with 21 points. Jose Alvarado supported him with 16 points and 7 assists. The main thing is the season. 53 wins, third place in the West, strong balance and almost perfect game at home (30-10). The Knicks are a team that builds success through defense and quick transition.

Atlanta ended the regular season with a hint of bitterness. The defeat by the Heat (117:143) is not just a minus in the column, it is an alarm signal before the playoffs. From the very first minutes in Miami, it became clear who was dictating the rules. The hit took away the tempo, the space and, in fact, the game. The Hawks tried to respond—at times they even managed to keep their distance, but the defense crumbled like a house of cards in the wind. The result is a major defeat and questions about defense. At the same time, Atlant's attack is alive: 47% from the game, 39% from beyond the arc - decent figures. But 16 losses and failures in defense crossed out everything. But Buddy Heald showed off with 31 points and 7 accurate three—pointers. He literally shot the ring like a sniper in an open position. The season as a whole turned out to be solid: 46 wins, sixth place in the East.
