Can the Knicks keep their season alive?
Their once feel-good season is close to going up in smoke as they try to stave off elimination, staring down a 3-1 deficit entering Game 5 of the second round of the NBA playoffs against the Heat at MSG Wednesday night.
The Knicks hung around in Game 4 and shot the ball much better, but their inability to grab defensive rebounds down the stretch cost them dearly.
