New York Knicks vs Miami Heat NBA Preview
We're back in Miami for this one today, where 28-year-old Landry Shamet will look to build off his career-best 36-point performance.
You know what they say, all it takes is eight seasons and six teams to see if someone truly has it.
In partial seriousness, however, it's already the third time we'll see the Knicks and Heat this season, and the last until they meet again all the wayin… December — the 21st, to be exact.
Until then, this will be your rubber match between the two rivals.
The Knicks won the Madison Square Garden-held track meet on Friday, 140-132, avenging their 115-107 loss in Miami — where my South Beach Flu detector may have gone off — earlier this season.
The Knicks, 8-4, are second in the East while Miami has dropped to eighth and is now 7-6.
Here's your injury report for tonight as of 11 a.m. Eastern Time.
Jalen Brunson (ankle) and OG Anunoby (hamstring — injured in Friday's game) are out for the Knicks. Deuce McBride (personal) is listed as questionable.
Bam Adebayo (toe) and Tyler Herro (ankle) are both expected to return to action soon, but will sit out tonight's game in Miami. Terry Rozier (feds) is still out.
Knicks vs Heat Betting Predictions, Analysis
This is not me leaning into the "Heat Moneyline" bit as much as it's me sticking to my initial prediction where the Knicks and Heat would split these two games.
Plus, with no Brunson and Anunoby, this is a bit more uphill for the Knicks.
I'll take my chances on Shamet not scoring 36 and Karl-Anthony Towns not having 30 in the first half.
The Heat haven't lost three straight this season, and come into tonight having lost back-to-back games. After losses this year, Miami is 3-2.
In their only game this season, where they lost on the road and had the bounce-back spot at home, they won (against Charlotte by 18).
This season, they're 5-1 at home, losing only to an also short-handed Cleveland, which was the second of a doubleheader.
I think Miami wins a competitive one against New York, which is 0-3 on the road this season.
