Despite a strong roster on paper, the Suns are hard to put down among the contenders. The fact is that Phoenix's roster is not balanced - the team has a weak bench. Devin Booker is a great scorer, but he's not a playmaker. Neither does Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal.
The previous game against Brooklyn once again confirmed all the Suns' weaknesses. The team allowed 12 losses on 28 assists and didn't play their best defense as a result - 112:116. This is already the fifth defeat for Phoenix in the stretch of the last seven games.
New York Knicks
The Knicks opened their road trip with the previous game and unexpectedly lost in Salt Lake City. Utah had Lauri Markkanen back on the court, and the team was not ready. Finn scored 23 points and made eight rebounds, and New York lost - 113:117.
Thus, the Knicks have three defeats in the last four games. Apart from Utah, New York lost to two Eastern Conference contenders during this stretch - Milwaukee (122:146) and Boston (123:133).
Expert Betting Tips
No matter what happens, Phoenix has been successful against New York in recent seasons. It is likely to take the Suns and the upcoming meeting. The team has lost a lot lately, and their superstars need rehabilitation. The good thing for the Suns is that the Knicks are not playing the best away games this season, having suffered three consecutive home-court defeats. We're betting on Phoenix and TO - the rivals scored 229 points in their first meeting of the season, and we don't expect a drop in performance in the second game.
