- Timberwolves 120, Knicks 107: Have a struggling offense? Why not just play the Knicks? Minnesota waltzed into the Garden and shot 51 percent from the floor and 52 percent from downtown. That's just not good defense. Nate Robinson and Al Harrington led the way with 26 apiece.
- Bobcats 95, Nets 87: No matter how much a Nets fan likes Keyon Dooling, he doesn't want an impressive performance off the bench to be among the bright spots in a loss to the Bobacts. Dooling had 11 points as the Nets generally struggled on offense against a lowly Charlotte squad. Devin Harris and Vince Carter combined to miss 24 shots. Enough said. The teams play again -- in Charlotte -- on Saturday.
- Islanders 4, Maple Leafs 1: Rare is it that the Islanders get one piece of good news in a game, much less three. Bill Guerin scored two goals -- he now has 400 -- Rick DiPietro played for the first time since October, and the Islanders actually won a game(!). That snapped a 10-game losing streak.
- Penguins 1, Devils 0: The Devils need to do a better job of taking advantage of opportunities. They outshot the Pens, 37-19, but still got shut out by Marc-Andre Fleury.





Children playing games.
How quaint.
I'm so glad that we can pay attention to these fine, young uneducated children playing games since there are no foreign policy, domestic, economic social (etc) problems to deal with.
So we're free to watch children pay their games
play, children play !!!!
I don't really follow basketball (baseball house) but I am amazed at how awful the Knicks appear to be. It seems every day here there is a story about another Knicks loss. Am I correct?
