Heat aim to sweep home-and-home set vs. Knicks

The Miami Heat have begun regaining their form since Jimmy Butler's return.

Butler scored eight of his 17 points in the fourth quarter to help the Heat beat the New York Knicks 109-103 on Sunday at Madison Square Garden.

The Heat will look to do it again on Tuesday night in the rematch between the two teams in Miami.

"I think when you look at their numbers when Jimmy plays versus when he doesn't play, it's two different teams," Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau said about Butler, whom he coached during his stints in Chicago and Minnesota.
