Okay, so I wanted to figure out who’s gonna win the Hornets vs. Knicks game. I’m no expert, but I like to make these little predictions for fun, and I figured I’d share my process this time.

Digging into the Stats
First, I just looked at the basics. I checked out both teams’ recent records. How many games have they won or lost lately? Are they on a hot streak or a cold spell? That kind of stuff gives you a general feel.
- Checked recent win/loss records.
- Looked for winning or losing streaks.
I also glanced at their scores. Are they high-scoring teams, or do they play tough defense and keep the scores low? That helps you get a sense of the game’s potential pace.
Head-to-Head History
Then, I wanted to see how these two teams have done against each other in the past. Some teams just match up well against certain opponents, regardless of their overall records. So, I looked for any past games between the Hornets and the Knicks.
- Searched for previous Hornets vs. Knicks games.
- Noted which team usually wins.
Who’s Playing (and Who’s Not)
This is a big one! Are there any key players injured or out for some other reason? A star player missing can totally change a team’s chances. So, I scoured the internet for any news about player injuries or suspensions.
- Look for the injury list.
- Who’s out, which star players not gonna attend the game.
Where’s the Game?
Home-court advantage is a real thing. Teams often play better on their home turf. So, I checked where the game was being played. That could be a factor.

Putting It All Together
After gathering all this, I start to get a feeling, just a gut feeling, about who might win. It is based on some facts and information, it’s still just an educated guess.
I make sure to take everything to combine, and made my prediction.
I am gonna share my predition result some time later, maybe a few days later, I do not want effect other’s opinion.
