Boston at New York

The Knicks have suddenly won more games at home in the last five days than they have all season. What is even more astonishing is they will be playing tonight with the opportunity to join New Jersey at the top of the Atlantic Division. Boston is coming off an emotional win at new jersey on a Paul Pierce buzzer beater. They may come out flat. Of most concern is that they started the New Jersey game down 18-0, but to their credit came back to win against a New Jersey team that is really having a tough time. The Knicks better play is directly attributed to Eddy Curry. Curry has scored 20+ in 9 straight, and had a season high 36 in his last game. Curry is averaging 24.9 ppg and 9 rpg during this stretch. Wally Szczerbiak is out again for Boston, so they may be short of answers in this one. We look for the Knicks to win again at home, as they seemed to have found some answers in the middle.
