Analysis
The point spread analysis favors New York based on several key factors. The Knicks' superior recent form, combined with their dominant head-to-head record, creates a compelling case for the home team. Portland's defensive struggles, particularly on the road, align perfectly with New York's offensive strengths. The rest advantage slightly favors Portland, but the Knicks' home court advantage and momentum outweigh this factor. New York's ability to control pace and exploit mismatches should prove decisive in this Western Conference vs Eastern Conference clash.
