MIAMI -- Its been a long time since the New York Knicks were in this position.More than three years, to be precise.Carmelo Anthony matched a season high with 35 points, and the Knicks took advantage of second chances all night to beat the injury-ravaged Miami Heat 114-103 on Tuesday night. At 12-9, New York is three games over .500 for the first time since the end of the 2012-13 season.Any time you can put together some wins you feel confident, you feel comfortable, you feel like youre heading in the right direction, and I really feel were doing that, Anthony said. Were heading in the right direction.Kristaps Porzingis had 14 points and 12 rebounds for New York, which has won four straight. The Knicks lost Derrick Rose to back spasms in the third quarter, but still scored 61 points after halftime.We just came out in the second half knowing that we have to win the game and that we have to play better, Porzingis said.Goran Dragic scored 29 points and Hassan Whiteside finished with 23 points and 14 rebounds for the Heat, who fell to 2-8 at home. New York had a 31-13 edge in second-chance points, and outscored Miami 56-36 in the paint.Sometimes the ball goes that way, Whiteside said.The teams were tied at 68 late in the third quarter, when the Knicks went on a 27-13 run over the next eight minutes to take control. Anthony finished 13 for 27 from the field, and Porzingis and Joakim Noah combined for 22 rebounds.The Heat had nine players, and might not have any more than that until next week.

BOSTON -- Charlie Coyle, Chris Stewart and the Minnesota Wild just needed time to capitalize against Bostons emergency goalie tandem.Coyle and Stewart scored 12 seconds apart during a four-goal second period, Devan Dubnyk made 27 saves and the Wild beat the Bruins 5-0 on Tuesday night.That first period was ugly. We thought it was going to be a long night if we kept playing like that, said Ryan Suter, who also scored. We knew that we had more and we finally started to play the way we needed to play.Goals by Coyle and Stewart rattled the short-handed Bruins, who entered the game missing Tuukka Rask (lower body) and Anton Khudobin (right arm/wrist).Malcolm Subban made his second career start but was pulled after allowing three goals on 16 shots. He was replaced by Zane McIntyre, who made his NHL debut just hours after being called up from AHL Providence.Dubnyk got his 20th career shutout and the first for the Wild this season.Thats what were looking for on the road, Dubnyk said. We played hard. We got scoring chances. We outscored them.

McIntyre took over and finished the rest of the game, stopping 15 of 17 shots.With starter Rask day-to-day and Khudobin out for several weeks, Boston coach Claude Julien said the Bruins didnt give their youngest goalies much help.I dont care whos in net, Julien said I think when you have some injuries you need to be better in those situations and we werent good enough tonight.Jason Zucker had a goal and two assists, Suter added an assist and rookie Joel Eriksson Ek got his first three NHL assists. Jason Pominville scored in the third period.The Wild bbroke the scoreless tie 5:07 into the second when Coyle tapped in his own rebound, then Minnesota struck again when Zucker slipped a pass from behind the net to Stewart, who hit a one-timer past Subban to put the Wild up 2-0.ddddddddddddo add on like that was important because we didnt have a letdown, Suter said. We got one and then we kept building on to that.Suter scored by one-timing a crossing pass from Matt Dumba just 5 seconds after Boston defenseman Adam McQuaid was called for cross checking.Fans mocked Subbans struggles by cheering McIntyre after a routine stop, but there was little else to cheer on the night. Zucker took a pass from Suter with 3:21 left in the second to give the Wild a 4-0 lead after two.You look at what you could have done and you cant dwell over it, Subban said. Ive got to keep working through it. Thats all you can really do.Game notes Subbans only previous NHL experience was a start at St. Louis on Feb. 20, 2015, when he was pulled early in the second period after allowing three goals on six shots. ... Zuckers goal with 3:21 left in the second made him the 16th player to score for the Wild in the first seven games of the season. ...
