The least up-tempo pace home team in the league this year has been the Miami Heat.The Knicks have played at the 3rd-least up-tempo tempo in the NBA away from their home court this year, which should decrease plays for the Heat.The Miami Heat have been the worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA on their home court this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore reduce extra opportunities for scoring and assists).Over the last 10 games when they are at home, opposing starting SFs have attempted 2.5 free throws per game (7th-lowest in the league) vs. the Knicks, finding it difficult to get to the charity stripe.
