Chicago Bulls vs New York Knicks Prediction NBA Picks 11/13/24

The Chicago Bulls travel to Madison Square Garden to battle the New York Knicks on Wednesday night. Here’s a Chicago Bulls vs New York Knicks Prediction. This article will include a Chicago Bulls vs New York Knicks Pick.

The Chicago Bulls have gone cold as they’ve lost five of their last six games overall and they will be hoping for a better result after falling short to the undefeated Cavaliers in a 119-113 loss on Monday. Zach LaVine led the team with 26 points on 12 of 20 shooting, Nikola Vucevic and Coby White tallied 20 points each while Josh Giddey chipped in with 18 points, eight rebounds, and seven assists. As a team, the Bulls shot 49 percent from the field and 14 of 38 from the 3-point line as they took it to the Cavaliers and led for a majority of the contest, until midway through the fourth quarter where the Cavaliers used a pivotal 9-0 run to start to pull away.

Meanwhile, the New York Knicks have been in decent form as they’ve split their first 10 games of the season and they will be looking to build some momentum after taking down the 76ers in a 111-99 road win last night. OG Anunoby led the team in scoring with 24 points on 11 of 16 shooting, Karl-Anthony Towns added 21 points with 13 rebounds and six assists, Jalen Brunson scored 18 points while Josh Hart racked up a triple-double of 14 points with 12 rebounds and 10 assists. As a team, the Knicks shot 49 percent from the field and nine of 31 from the 3-point line as they wrestled with the 76ers in a tight contest until the Knicks opened the fourth quarter on a 13-2 run to run away with it in the end. Following this game, the Knicks will take on the Nets in a back-to-back set.

Why the New York Knicks will win

• The Knicks have won 17 of their last 18 games at Madison Square Garden against teams that held a losing record.
• The Bulls have lost six of their last seven night games against Atlantic Division opponents.
• The home team has covered the spread in four of the Knicks’ last five games.
• The Bulls have failed to cover the spread in each of their last four games at Madison Square Garden following a loss.

The Bulls could be a little shorthanded with Adamo Sanogo and Jalen Smith both listed as questionable, while the Knicks are still going to be without Mitchell Robinson and Precious Achiuwa. The Bulls are coming into this one off another loss, but they were more than competitive in a close game against the undefeated Cavaliers in their last outing and I think they can go one better in this matchup. The Knicks should be good enough to get the win at home, but this line just seems a few points too high for me.
