Brooklyn Nets Preview

Houston Rockets vs Brooklyn Nets

The Nets (41-38) have not had the best of seasons, considering the star power the team has. They are currently eighth in the East. With three games left to play, the Nets will hope to hold their position or make a push to seventh place to boost their chances of qualifying for the playoffs.

The team is riding on the form of Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving, as both are performing exceptionally well individually. However, if they are to make it to the playoffs, the Nets will also have to start playing good defense.

The game against the Knicks is a must-win one for the Nets, as a setback would give the Hawks an advantage in the final standings. The Nets will look to carry forward their momentum from the win against the Rockets and put up a good show at he Madison Square Garden.

New York Knicks Preview

Utah Jazz vs New York Knicks

The Knicks (35-44) came into the 2021-22 season with a lot of hope as they had a playoff run last campaign. However, things haven't gone as planned, and they have fallen out of playoff reckoning

RJ Barrett has been their main player for most of the season. The youngster has not only elevated his defensive game but has also improved his scoring. He has become an efficient three-point shooter, and his exploits this season should give him a boost to earn a big rookie extension.

Against the Nets, the Knicks will only be playing for pride. Having lost all their games to the Nets this season, the Knicks will look to grab a win and spoil the part for their city rivals.
