Sunday 3:30 p.m. – Indiana at New York: Even with Amar’e Stoudemire out, the Knicks have a advantage from their best through eighth-best player in their playoff match-up with the Pacers. Carmelo Anthony was the fourth best player in the league in the games he played, while Tyson Chandler is a dominant defender and JR Smith was the best player off the bench. The Knicks could be emerging as the team with the best shot at upsetting the Heat if they take care of business verses the Pacers.
