The matchup vs. the Miami Heat is a favorable one; they have given up the 4th-most points per game in the NBA to the opposing team's starting PGs over the last 10 games (23.1).The New York Knicks are expected to see a spike in plays today from being pitted against the most up-tempo pace offense in the league this year (the Heat).The Knicks have been the best offensive rebounding offense in the NBA over the last 15 games as the home team (offensive rebounds maintain possession and can therefore create added opportunities for scoring and assists).Over the last 5 games, opposing starting PGs have attempted 5.8 free throws per game (3rd-most in the league) vs. the Miami Heat, making it fairly effortless to get to the foul line.
