Knicks @ Sixers: MSG 7pm
The Knicks exercised the Celtics demons and are headed to Philly for another key Atlantic Division game. With the Nets at 9-3 and the Knicks 5-3 in the division, every divisional win will be crucial and could be the difference between a number 2 and a number 5 seed. The good news is that Raymond Felton practiced on Friday and may play tonight. Felton has been the ignition to the Knicks offense, whereas Carmelo is the engine.

His weakness is his propensity for turnovers as he averages 4 per game, which accounts for a third of all Sixer turnovers, as they only average 12 total per contest. The Knicks need ...
