"The Knicks have gotten the better of their division rival this season, winning two of their three last matchups. The fourth bout at Madison Square Garden will be the deciding factor in their regular-season rivalry."
"New York won the first four matchups against the Raptors without much trouble, giving them a clear advantage. Another win could increase their chances of clinching the third seed."
"An 11-point loss at Charlotte revealed gaps in their game. This would carry over into two more losses against the Thunder and Rockets, two playoff contenders in the Western Conference."
"New York rebounded by winning three straight, as its starting five began stepping up when they needed it most. Karl Anthony-Towns played a key role in their win over the Atlanta Hawks."
The New York Knicks have secured a playoff berth and are focused on clinching the No. 3 seed in the Eastern Conference. They face tough competition from the Cleveland Cavaliers, who are just a game behind. The Knicks' remaining games are against the Boston Celtics, Toronto Raptors, and Charlotte Hornets, all of whom are vying for playoff positions.
