Prediction for the NBA Brooklyn Nets vs New York Knicks match which will take place on December 21st. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Brooklyn Nets

Before the meeting with the Knicks, the Nets had a long road trip against the teams of the Western Conference. Jacque Vaughn's team managed to take only one game - from Phoenix (116:112), and four they lost, losing to Sacramento (118:131), Golden State (120:124), Denver (101:124), and Utah (108:125). It is an unfortunate result, but we should consider the opponents' level and the fact that traveling to the West is always difficult for teams from the Atlantic Coast.

New York Knicks

Tom Thibodeau's team has played four consecutive road games against Western teams. The New Yorkers started their trip with a loss to Utah (113:117), then beat Phoenix (139:122), and then in Los Angeles, they failed to take the Clippers (122:144) but stopped the Lakers (114:109).

The Knicks are above the Nets in the standings. In addition, they are currently in a direct playoff spot - fifth in the East with a 15:11 record.

Expert Betting Tips

New York's offense has picked up noticeably lately, especially from three-point range. Tom Thibodeau's team already ranks ninth in that category. Brooklyn is fifth in the league in accurate long-range attempts. At the same time, perimeter defense is not the strongest part of either team, and that gives us reason to like the upside in terms of made three-pointers. In addition, we'll bet on the Knicks to win, just like in the Lakers game.
