Break Up The Knicks! No, seriously...

NYK beat Miami for fourth win in five games

Playing for the fourth time in five games the Knickerbockers played the role of stalking horse against a lesser team (rather than the other way around). They overtook the dreadful Miami Heat late in the fourth quarter thanks largely to Nate Robinson's shot-making, Jamal Crawford's free-throw shooting and David Lee's ability to front Shaq.

I was going to add JJ's defense of Wade to that short list but really Wade is a shell of himself. He is so clearly injured that it is impressive and short-sighted that he hasn't shut it down. Each step is seemingly an ordeal.
