Hawks vs Knicks Pick

Atlanta C Jock Landale (right ankle sprain) has not played in this series and his status moving forward is uncertain. The Hawks are coming off a poor shooting night and the Knicks scored about four points more per game on their home floor. Look for New York to win in a game that goes over the total. Final Score Prediction, New York Knicks win 113-107.
