Neither of these teams play defense very well, particularly against each other, so we are looking for another high-scoring affair tonight.
These clubs have gone OVER in three of their last four head-to-head meetings, with all of those OVERS easily surpassing the posted totals (111-109, 116-109, 108-95). The Bobcats are allowing over 100 points per game for the entire season at 100.9, and that figure generously jumps to an abysmal 106.0 points per game over the last five contests overall. The OVER is also 5-1 in the last six Charlotte games overall.
Now the Knicks are also allowing over 100 points per game, and they have actually been worse here at home, surrendering 104.2 points per contest at Madison Square Garden. In fact the combined average of all Knick home games this season is 207.1 points, about nine points higher than this posted total, and we really see no reason to expect anything different tonight vs. this porous Bobcat defense.
