The New York Knicks will face the Cleveland Cavaliers in an NBA game that will be live streaming FREE from Cleveland at 7:30 PM ET

Despite shoddy seasons, the Knicks and Cavs still have a chance to make the playoffs in the inferior Eastern Conference.

A manageable stretch in the schedule could make things much easier for the Knicks, while the Cavaliers will soon be taking on many of the league's top teams.

New York seeks just its third streak of at least three wins Saturday night at Cleveland.

The Knicks (23-40) sit in 11th place and one game behind the Cavaliers, while both -- along with Detroit -- are chasing Atlanta for the conference's final playoff spot.

New York's 108-81 home win over Utah on Friday was its second in a row after the team had dropped 13 of 15.

The Knicks have totaled just 19 turnovers over the last two games after averaging 15.0 during a seven-game skid. They also recorded 24 assists in each of the last two games after totaling 17 or fewer in each of their previous four.

"Last two games is, we had no choice," coach Mike Woodson said. "Time is somewhat running out and every game is important."

Leaving out the Knicks' March 19 contest against Indiana, eight of their next nine opponents have a combined record of 115-257. That slate includes two games with Philadelphia -- losers of 15 straight -- and another meeting with the Cavaliers on March 23.

Cleveland (24-39) is trying to end a three-game skid after a 101-92 loss at Charlotte on Friday. The Cavaliers were 3 of 17 from beyond the arc.

The Cavaliers' upcoming schedule won't do them any favors.

After playing New York, they will visit Phoenix, Golden State and the Clippers, followed by home tilts with Miami, Oklahoma City and Houston. Those six teams are all at least 11 games above .500.

The game will be televised on NBATV and it will be live streaming online at nba-stream.com
