Meanwhile, the Cleveland Cavaliers are slightly behind overall this season, with a record of 17 wins and 14 losses, placing them seventh in the Eastern Conference.

Historically, despite the New York Knicks playing at home, the Cavaliers still have the strength to compete for the win. If the Knicks want to maintain their lead, they must ensure dominance in the first half and a fast transition. The coordination between players and the depth of the bench are also very important considerations. This game may involve a fierce battle focusing on defensive rhythm and outside shooting efficiency.
