The Atlanta Hawks are ready for Game 4 of the NBA first-round playoffs against the New York Knicks. The Hawks will get one more chance at home to take a crucial 3-1 lead in the series. They head into the contest with a narrow 109-108 victory in Game 3. After losing the series opener at MSG, Atlanta pulled off a big comeback and won two straight games. CJ McCollum dropped a match-winning basket with 13 seconds left to get a big win.
The Hawks made an automatic qualification for the playoffs after finishing sixth in the Eastern Conference. They posted a 46-36 record in the regular season. Atlanta lost three out of the last four games in the regular season but didn’t move to the Play-In Tournament. The hosts have a great chance to take a 3-1 lead. In the last six years, no team has lost a playoff series after winning three out of the first four games. Only 13 teams in history managed to overcome a 1-3 deficit.
Atlanta averaged 118.5 points per game and allowed 116.0 points per game. The hosts shot 47.4% from the floor and 37.1% from the three-point line during the regular season. If we pick out the offensive threat on this side, Jalen Johnson is the right name. The 24-year-old star averaged 22.5 points and 10.3 rebounds in the regular season. We back him to score 15 or more points in this game. The Hawks are 3-3 against the Knicks in the 2025-26 season.
The New York Knicks faced a major setback in the series as they dropped consecutive games. The Knicks made a comeback to take the glory in the fourth quarter but a four-point play in the end assured a loss. They desperately need a victory in Game 4. The Knicks never won the playoffs series after having a 3-1 deficit. They dragged the series to Game 7 in the 1995 playoffs against the Pacers but didn’t win.
New York beat Atlanta 2 out of three times in the regular season but faced a similar outcome against them in the playoffs. The big thing is they will play Game 4 on the road and rejuvenated Atlanta will try their best to make it 3-1. The Knicks averaged 116.5 points per game and allowed 110.1 points per game. They ranked fourth in three-point shooting (37.3%). The Knicks made it into the Eastern Conference finals last year where they lost to the Indiana Pacers.
OG Anunoby dropped a game-high 29 points, while Jalen Brunson went for 26 points. Brunson could also be our offensive threat in this game. He averaged 27.7 points in three games of the playoffs. We back him to score 20 or more points in the road fixture. Karl-Anthony Towns also contributed 21 points and 17 rebounds in the last game. The Knicks had few errors in the clutch time which needs to be fixed. They had a similar situation against the Pacers last year and lost the series in six games.
