"Knicks' Victory over Heat Could Secure No. 5 Seed"

The New York Knicks can solidify their hold on the fifth seed in the Eastern Conference with a win over the Miami Heat on Wednesday, which would also give them the head-to-head tiebreaker. The Knicks will then face the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday in a likely first-round playoff preview. The Heat will be playing on the tail end of a back-to-back, and star forward Jimmy Butler is questionable with neck soreness. The Knicks have the 14th-easiest schedule remaining and could clinch a drama-free finish to the regular season with a win over the Heat.
