Scott Rickenbach's Free Pick (Opinion Only): Charlotte Bobcats (-) vs New York @ 7:05 PM ET -
The Knicks pulled off a shocking win last night as they had a huge third quarter against New Orleans and then hung on for the victory. Let's not forget that New York had previously lost six straight games. Also, the Knicks are facing a Charlotte team that just won outright on the road in Philly last night! The Bobcats, with their play in recent weeks, have proven that head coach Larry Brown now has the right pieces in place. Charlotte is playing their best basketball of the season and that continues here. The Knicks now take their show on the road and that means the long-term struggles quickly return as last night's New York win will prove to just be a 'blip on the screen'. This Knicks team is very poor defensively and here they're matched up with one of the best defenses in the league. Consider a small play on Charlotte minus the points on Saturday night.
