2024 NBA Week 19 Preview - Golden State vs. New York: Will the Knicks snap their six-game home losing streak against Warriors? February 29, 2024 by Marc Jerbs

On Thursday, the Golden State Warriors will face the New York Knicks in Week 19 of the 2024 NBA season. Game time is set 7:30PM ET at the Madison Square Garden in New York, NY.

The Golden State Warriors are slowly but surely starting to flex their muscles this season. They have cut down their turnovers and improved their floor spacing to let the ball find the open player to score. The Warriors has won six straight road games and will seek to make it seven against the Knicks. Their longest road winning streak was eleven games set during the 2018-19 season.

The New York Knicks have struggled recently and they plan to stop their six-game losing streak at home. Injury to key players have somewhat derail the progress of the team this season. New York played very well at the start of the season but has stumbled a week before the All-Star break and has been inconsistent when the 2nd half of the season began.

Sports Bet Odds

With injuries to Knicks key players, the Warriors are undoubtedly the favorites to win the game. Here are our latest odds:

  • The Warriors are favored by 2.5 points, with a money line of -145.
  • The Knicks are the underdogs by 2.5 points, with a money line of +120.
  • The over/under is set at 223.5 points, with the over at -110 and the under at -110.

The Warriors recent resurgence can be attributed to the cohesion of each player. Everyone has fully embraced their role to help the team win games. Former starter Klay Thompson was placed to play in the 2nd unit and has thrived well to lead the bench in three of their last five games. With Chris Paul back from his injuries, expect both him and Thompson to lead their second unit.

The New York Knicks can a learn a thing or two from the Golden State Warriors. Their team has been ravaged by injuries but they must remain focused and play hard until all their injured players get back. The bench players must show that they can play well and hold the fort.
