The matchup vs. New York is a difficult one for three-pointers; when the Knicks are on their home court, opposing starting PFs have compiled the lowest three rate in the NBA this year (18.6%).The Heat are expected to suffer a drop-off in opportunities today from competing against the 2nd-least up-tempo tempo team in the NBA over the last 10 games (the New York Knicks).The Miami Heat have been the 9th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore lead to fewer chances for scoring and assists).This year when they are away from home, the other team's starting PFs have attempted 2.6 foul shots per game (5th-lowest in the NBA) against the New York Knicks, finding it difficult to get to the charity stripe.
