New York Knicks vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction: Will the Knicks be able to get revenge on the Spurs?

On December 30, New York unexpectedly lost on the road to San Antonio. Will the Knicks be able to get revenge on the Spurs at Madison Square Garden?

By the end of the first half of the regular season, the team occasionally began to show a level of excellence on defense. The Knicks won eight straight games in December before losing four straight. Still, they then again picked up two consecutive wins on the eve of their meeting with San Antonio, allowing less than 90 points in each win over Houston (108:88) and Phoenix (102:83). New York is improving over the championship distance and currently ranks seventh in the Eastern Conference just one win behind the top-6.

The Spurs had a good stretch, beating New York (122:115) and Utah (126:122), losing to Oklahoma (114:130) and losing to Dallas (125:126) by only one point, but fell to Brooklyn at Barclays Center next. With a score of 103:139 - the team failed to stop the Nets from getting their 12th win in a row. San Antonio itself is currently in the penultimate spot in the Western Conference last team, Houston, by two wins.

After four straight losses, the Knicks began to win again in their usual defensive fashion, as the team conceded less than 90 points in their meetings with Phoenix and Houston. It's likely that the Spurs, who are modest this season against New York, won't be able to show their mettle offensively, either. In addition, the Knicks need to take revenge on San Antonio for their December 30 road loss.
