Ahead of the Milwaukee Bucks return home to host the New York Knicks, we caught up with a Knicks writer from HoopsHabit to look ahead to the action.

Welcome to Opposition Intel!

The Milwaukee Bucks are 7-13 and have won only two of their last ten games. After Friday’s disappointing defeat to the Detroit Pistons, the Bucks now find themselves shorthanded at point guard as Michael Carter-Williams seems likely to be the only healthy point guard. The challenge grows.

The Bucks wanted to be much higher up the standings through 20 games, but in their opponent tonight they’ll face a New York Knicks team who must be delighted at the progress they have made early in the season.

Carmelo Anthony is contributing strongly, but Kristaps Porzingis is already emerging as New York’s biggest star. Milwaukee will have their hands full in finding a way to stop him.

Ahead of the action, we spoke to New York Knicks writer Sean Linhares to find out exactly what to expect, and to learn about what matchups we should be looking out for.
