The New York Knickerbockers are relevant for the first time since, when, the days of Patrick Ewing? They\u2019ve won three of four and, in their last eight games, they\u2019re 5-3. That number may not seem so impressive but it is when you consider that the three losses were at the Lakers, at Orlando and at Miami. They also beat San Antonio, Chicago and Oklahoma City over that stretch. The Knicks\u2019 schedule has been vicious of late and they\u2019re surviving.<\/p>\n<p>Why? Because they score and score and score some more. Under offensive dynamo coach Mike D\u2019Antoni, the Knicks lead the NBA with 107.6 points per game. Amar\u2019e Stoudemire continues his MVP-caliber campaign, averaging 26.3 points and 9.1 boards. Raymond Felton continues to show he was a fabulous offseason acquisition, playing quarterback and leading the team in assists.<\/p>\n<p>Not surprisingly under D\u2019Antoni, defense doesn\u2019t come naturally for the Knicks. They\u2019re third-worst in the Association with 106.3 points allowed per game.  <a href=\"http:\/\/record.partners.betus.com\/_zzar6WLC4ymo7VEZ8gU2ZXdRsl6wLCi5\/1\" rel=\"nofollow\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"width: auto; height: auto; margin: 5px;\" src=\"http:\/\/media.partners.betus.com\/BANNERS\/basketball\/sportsbook_basketball_250x250_banner1.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Portland Trail Blazers (20-18)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Aren\u2019t the Blazers supposed to be struggling without Brandon Roy? They didn\u2019t get the memo. Portland has won four of six, with one of its two defeats coming to the powerhouse Heat in overtime. Stepping up for Roy, LaMarcus Aldridge has become the team\u2019s go-to scorer. His 20.5 points per game would be a career-best mark by season\u2019s end.<\/p>\n<p>Grizzled vets like Andre Miller and Marcus Camby have given Aldridge good support lately. Wesley Matthews has broken out in his first year with the Blazers and second in the league but he\u2019s wildly inconsistent. Over his last 10 games, Matthews has two 30-point games, two 20-point games, four games between 10 and 15 points and two games with single-digit points. Who knows what he\u2019ll do tonight?<\/p>\n<p><strong>The pick:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Blazers have been a pleasant surprise without Roy but It\u2019s only a matter of time before the injury catches up to them; look at Dallas without Dirk Nowitzki. The Knicks have been one of the league\u2019s best bets this year, going 23-12-1 against the spread and 14-5 ATS on the road. After getting pummelled and held to just 87 points by the Lakers on Sunday, they should be hungry to bounce back.
