PREVIEW: The New York Knicks (9-6) arrive in Brooklyn as significant favorites over the Nets (3-13), bringing a potent offensive attack that ranks among the league's best. The Knicks have established themselves as elite three-point shooters, attempting nearly 47 percent of their shots from beyond the arc and ranking fifth in frequency. Defensively, New York excels at controlling the glass with the league's top-ranked defensive rebounding, while their low turnover rate—fourth in the league—keeps possessions clean and efficient. The Knicks will be without key contributors Landry Shamet and OG Anunoby, putting added pressure on their depth against a struggling opponent. Brooklyn counters with their own perimeter-oriented approach, attempting the third-most three-pointers in the league while maintaining strong spacing on offense. However, the Nets struggle significantly on the defensive end, allowing plenty of shots attacking the rim while ranking dead last in tempo and demonstrating inefficient three-point shooting themselves. The Nets have dropped seven consecutive home games and are playing the second night of a back-to-back after falling to Toronto. Tipoff is set for 7:30 p.m. EST from the Barclays Center, with the game broadcasting live on YES.
