Jazz-Knicks Preview

(AP) -- If the New York Knicks want to make a push and force the teams directly above them into checking the rearview mirror, this upcoming week is the time to do it.

Kicking off a stretch of five contests against opponents who are all well below .500, the Knicks will try to win back-to-back games for the first time in over a month as they host the Utah Jazz on Friday night.

New York (22-40), in 11th place in the weak Eastern Conference, has gone 3-13 since the start of February and is 5 1/2 games behind Atlanta for the eighth and final playoff spot with 20 remaining.
