Basketball betting on Friday includes a quick rematch between the New York Knicks and Washington Wizards. NBA betting information shows that the two teams just played at New York on Wednesday. Let’s look at the basketball betting matchup between the Knicks and Wizards.
Basketball scheduling has the Knicks playing back at home tomorrow night against Philadelphia. There are some good basketball trends for the Knicks in this game. New York has won 6 of the last 10 games straight up against the Wizards and they are 7-3 against the basketball odds. The teams have split their last six meetings at Washington but the Knicks are 4-2 against the basketball odds.
The last five meetings between the two teams have gone over the basketball total. The Knicks have won both previous meetings this season, 122-117 at home and 114-108 in Washington as basketball betting statistics indicate. The Knicks had four players score 20 points or more in the last meeting as Quentin Richardson had 34 points as NBA betting stats show. Al Harrington has been leading the Knicks in scoring since coming over from Golden State and New York has been a basketball surprise quite a few times. With Mike D’Antoni as head coach the Knicks can flat out score no matter who is in the starting lineup.
The Wizards still have Caron Butler and Antawn Jamison but without Gilbert Arenas they don’t have enough to challenge teams on a regular basis as basketball betting stats indicate. Jamison leads the team in scoring but their offense overall is right near the bottom of the league in scoring as basketball betting stats indicate. The defense isn’t much better which means Washington struggles versus the basketball pointspread more often than not. The Wizards can sometimes outscore opponents and since the Knicks have a horrible defense, points could be scored in this Friday night basketball betting action.
