The matchup vs. Washington is a good one; when the Washington Wizards are away from home, they have given up the 5th-most points per game in the league to the opposing team's starting SGs this year (16.9).The Knicks are expected to get a boost in opportunities today from being pitted against the 2nd-speediest pace team in the league over the last 5 games (the Wizards).The Knicks check in as the best offensive rebounding offense in the league over the last 5 games (offensive rebounds maintain possession and may therefore provide additional opportunities for scoring and assists).The matchup against Washington may be a good one for getting to the charity stripe; the opposing team's starting SGs have attempted a monstrous 2.8 foul shots per game over the last 5 games when the Washington Wizards are the visiting squad (8th-most in the NBA).
