New York - Cleveland: betting tip (cf. 1.74) and bets on the NBA match

The first meeting between the teams provided one of the most impressive comebacks of the current playoffs. New York once again confirmed the reputation of a team with an incredible character, because during the match it lost by a margin of 20 points. The Knicks managed to turn the tide of the meeting and snatch a strong-willed victory.  

The main character of the match was Jaylen Brunson.  The Knicks' leader scored 38 points, adding five rebounds and six assists. Despite the disastrous start, the New York players had a perfect ending and completely took control of the game. Of course, this is all good, but in a confrontation with a stronger opponent, such actions will not benefit the team.

Cleveland, despite the defeat, can also take the first match to its advantage. Until the disastrous fourth quarter, Kenny Atkinson's team was in full control of the match, but the opponent's dash actually negated all chances of victory. The Knicks purposefully attacked James Harden, and the experienced defender was not ready for this. 

It's also worth considering that Cleveland feels much more at home. But on the road, the team from Ohio lost 7 of the last 9 matches. The visiting Cavaliers largely depend on the game of Donovan Mitchell, who is considered the team's leader this season.
