Last Night's Action: The Streak Is Over
- Washington 111 Knicks 98: New York ended their winning streak by failing to play defense. The Wizards shot 57% from the field, a figure that would have been higher if they hadn’t gone very cold in the fourth quarter.
The Knicks’ lack of defensive effort cost them what should have been a win. The game 30 different lead changes and New York had plenty of opportunities to get back into the game, including at 96-90 in the fourth quarter, but they couldn’t get a defensive stop and Washington pulled away. And now the chances of a losing streak starting are pretty strong with the Celtics coming to the Garden on Monday.
- Florida 2 Devils 1: New Jersey took a 1-0 lead into the third period only to see it dissapear in little over a minute. Radek Dvorak scored 2:28 into the third and David Booth followed at 3:45 to propel the Panthers to the win.
