Monday, March 17th serves up a full slate of NBA games including the Miami Heat and New York Knicks playing for the third time this season
Both teams last played on Saturday as Miami arrives following an embarrassing 95-125 blowout to the Grizzlies while the Knicks lost 94-97 to the Warriors.
Season Series
Last season, the teams played three times with New York winning the series two games to one and the Knicks also have won 73 of the 139 matches played versus the Heat all-time.
*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Sunday, March 16th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Monday, March 17th.
Miami Heat
It’s been an extremely tough stretch for the Heat who’ve lost seven games in a row. Bam Adebayo hasn’t looked right and it’s hard to tell if he’s nursing an injury or the load is just too much for him to carry.
During the losing streak, Adebayo is averaging 20.1 points and 9.6 rebounds but shooting only 49.5% from the field (not great for a big man).

To summarize the injury report…
- Alec Burks, SG (questionable — back)
- Nikola Jovic, F (OUT — hand)

New York Knicks
Without Jalen Brunson, the Knicks are learning how to adapt although they’ve dropped down the offensive rating group the benefit should pay dividends come playoffs.
Too often the team acquiesces to Brunson and becomes stagnant so these lessons learned now should be invaluable.

Free NBA Prediction:
If I didn’t know any better I’d say Miami is trying to low-key tank but with all the teams below them overtly tanking it’ll be hard to drop far enough to garner a top draft pick unless chance shines on them.
New York is struggling losing four of their last sixth but have a 4.5 game pad over their nearest competitor so should retain the third seed.
Although I’ll tap the Knicks to win, the Heat always get up to play at the Garden so I’ll also take the points.
