Golden State Warriors vs New York Knicks prediction

I considered the New York Knicks and the free buckets, but they’re still down Anunoby and Randle, and they could be without Brunson as well. The Golden State Warriors are the far healthier team, and they’re also making that push they usually do around this time of the season. The Warriors are 8-2 SU and 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games. The Garden will be rocking tonight, but given the Knicks injury situation, I’m going to lay the points with the Warriors.
