- New York Knicks vs Atlanta Hawks, a point-scoring orgy to determine the winner
Basketball full of pure spectacle, frenetic pace, competitive force, and talent. That's what lies ahead at Madison Square Garden, where the crowd will rally behind their team to leverage their home advantage and prevail over an intimate rival. The possible absence of Jalen Johnson may hinder the chances of the Hawks, who want to rely on the magic of Trae Young and the defense of Dyson Daniels, a catalyst to try to halt the best attack in the entire NBA. A tough game is expected where Towns and Brunson will be in the spotlight.
- Golden State Warriors vs Houston Rockets, experience versus competitive hunger
Playing for an important goal in a single game and at home against the Warriors of Curry and Green is the most promising scenario for anyone, but these Rockets are brimming with audacity and talent. They will seek to impose their evident upward trend with Sengun, the defense of Brooks and VanVleet, as well as the efforts from the bench of Thompson and Eason, which could be crucial for the Texans to gain an advantage in the second-unit duels. Curry will have to deliver his best performance and trust that Kuminga and Hield will be on target.
