The Portland Trail Blazers look to carry the momentum from one of their better games of the year into the city that never sleeps as they face the New York Knicks in Madison Square Garden.
Of late, the Knicks have gone from “pretty good” to “solidly good,” winning their last four games since trading RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickly to Toronto for OG Anunoby, and three of those by double-digits, the lone exception coming against the surprisingly stout Minnesota Timberwolves. According to people smarter than me, the Knicks aren’t done, and the Anunoby trade was but a precursor to an even bigger move before the NBA’s February 8, 2024 trade deadline.
