New York at Chicago

Premium Pick

New York looks for payback after losing 124-123 to the Bulls in this season's first meeting. The Knicks had their nine-game win streak snapped last night at Oklahoma City, which is understandable as the Thunder have the best record in the Western Conference. Chicago lost to lowly Washington 125-107 as a 6-point favorite on Wednesday. The Bulls had an apparent defensive breakdown as the Wizards shot nearly 50 percent and hit 17 of 36 3-pointers. New York has won eight of its past nine road games and five straight against the Eastern Conference. As an underdog, Chicago has lost 12 of 18 against the Atlantic Division and seven 10 outright overall. Take the Knicks on the moneyline.
