The Knicks have been outworked. They have been outhustled. They have played the regular stooge to Miami’s smarter, savvier, crisper approach.
Time and again in the fourth quarter the Knicks would sneak their way back within shouting distance; time and again the Heat would get two and three chances on the offensive end because the Knicks simply couldn’t rebound the ball. The Heat had seven offensive boards in the fourth quarter alone, 13 overall.
Butler and Adebayo were great. Kyle Lowry continues to spend every game in the way-back machine, this time for 15 points and four assists. The Heat’s collection of long-range snipers made 13 3s. All of that is true. But all of that could have been overcome. The Knicks never let themselves have a chance to find out. It was out of character for this group, or at least what this group used to be only a week and a half ago.And now this group is dangerously close to being out of season.
The Knicks have played with a razor-thin margin for error anyway this year. Now they have none. Now they have to figure a way to make one last stand at home and then come back here, and try to win a game in a building in which they’ve led for exactly 24 seconds out of 96 minutes so far this series.
