Knicks May Be In The Playoffs For the two Knicks stars, space has been at a premium, especially now that the rules allow defenses to shut down the very kind of players Houston and Sprewell are. Both used to live off isolations on the wing and post ups. But with teams sending multiple players their way, it's been tougher to get their shots. Houston, with a new $100-million deal, is shooting only 43.8 percent and averaging 17 ppg. Sprewell enters Wednesday's game in Atlanta with the same basic stats.
