76ers-Knicks Preview

It's been four years since the New York Knicks opened a season with three straight losses. Facing the Philadelphia 76ers could make it difficult to prevent that from happening again.

Adding to the New York-Philadelphia sports-themed weekend, the Knicks open their home schedule looking to snap a five-game losing streak to the 76ers on Saturday night at Madison Square Garden.

While this contest doesn't carry the same luster as the Yankees-Phillies World Series games this weekend or the Giants-Eagles NFL matchup Sunday all in Philadelphia, it means something to the parties involved.

"I can't stand those guys right now, all three of those (New York) teams,'' said Philadelphia forward Elton Brand, who grew up in suburban Westchester, N.Y. "It's a huge weekend, especially with football, baseball. Right now, ours doesn't have much importance, but it's still a rivalry.''

Philadelphia, which last season swept the four-game series from New York for the first time since 1985-86, looks for its second straight victory after bouncing back from a dismal season-opening loss with a 99-86 win over Milwaukee on Friday.

New York, meanwhile, looks to avoid losing its first three games for the first time since an 0-5 start in 2005-06. The Knicks fell 102-100 in double overtime at Charlotte on Friday, after falling 115-93 at Miami on Wednesday.

While the 76ers contributed to the Knicks' miserable 32-50 mark last season, they've won 13 of 15 over New York and five of seven at MSG. Philadelphia averaged 111.8 points and shot 53.1 percent against New York in 2008-09.

After each were held to eight points Wednesday against Orlando, Andre Iguodala scored 19 points and Brand added 17 on Friday for the 76ers as they put forth a much better effort than against the Magic, who led by as many as 31 in the 120-106 win.

"It was a great bounce-back game from that embarrassing Orlando loss,'' said Brand, who was 2 for 7 from the floor against the Magic, but 6 for 11 on Friday.

First-year 76ers coach Eddie Jordan was not concerned about the slow start from Iguodala, who averaged a team-leading 18.8 points last season, and hopes Brand's latest effort will help his cause.

Brand averaged 13.8 points and 8.8 rebounds, but was limited to 29 games due a shoulder injury last season - his first in Philadelphia.

"He's banging, he's fighting in there, he's in the trenches,'' Jordan said. "When you feel like things are going your way, it sort of builds your momentum."

Brand is averaging 21.2 points in 20 games against New York, but was held to six in 13 minutes of Philadelphia's 116-110 home win Jan. 24.

Al Harrington, who averaged 20.3 points against the 76ers last season, was one of three players with 17 Friday for the Knicks, who rallied from an 18-point, fourth-quarter deficit to force overtime.

David Lee had 17 points and 18 rebounds while second-year forward Danilo Gallinari added 16 after scoring 22 in the opener. New York rallied despite shooting 38.8 percent and trailing 47-26 at one point to the lowly Bobcats.

"Our worries are trying to get the right combinations on the floor and play like we did for part of the game,'' Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni said. "If we can bottle that, keep it, then we'll be fine.''

The Knicks, whose 44.5 field-goal percentage was among the lowest in the NBA last season, is shooting 38.4 after two contests. New York shot 42.5 percent against Philadelphia in 2008-09.

Lee, however, could be in store for another big night after averaging 16.3 points and 10.7 boards against Philadelphia last season.

Knicks fight back to force OT, then cave in to 76ers

NEW YORK (NBA.com exclusive) -- After experiencing the frights and terrors of the road during a two-game losing streak to open the season, the Knicks hoped that a lineup change and a home opener at Madison Square Garden would spark something positive.

Instead, the losing continued and the Knicks faced another horror show on Halloween night.

In a game that looked more like an old-time Western Conference shootout than an Eastern Conference grind-out, the Philadelphia 76ers downed the Knicks, 141-127 in overtime, and handed New York (0-3) its third straight loss to open the season.

A crowd of 19,763 that included Dustin Hoffman, John McEnroe and former Knick Stephon Marbury watched the Sixers (2-1) outscore the Knicks 19-5 in the extra period.

New York made a furious comeback, outscoring the Sixers 41-26 in the fourth period, to force their second straight overtime game. Charlotte beat the Knicks in double-OT Friday night.

"They have sort of a weird way of playing," Sixers coach Eddie Jordan said of the Knicks. "They shoot themselves in and obviously they can shoot themselves out."

He added: "Both teams really gave it all, both teams gutted it out. Both teams were determined and we just got loose [in the overtime]... We just continued to attack and attack."

The Knicks had the third-worst defense in the NBA last season and are on pace for that type of performance again, surrendering an average of 119.3 points through three games.

"I just thought in the overtime we had a complete physical breakdown," Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni said.

Coming off the bench for the first time this season, Knicks forward Al Harrington scored a game- and career-high 42 points on 16-of-22 shooting. But with the Knicks up 127-124 he fouled Marreese Speights (20 points, 10 rebounds) with 3:30 remaining in the overtime.

That sent Harrington to the bench with his sixth foul and left New York without its primary offensive weapon. The Sixers closed the game on a 17-0 run.

"When he went out it kind of took our post presence away," said Knicks guard Larry Hughes, who scored 18 points off the bench. "We had to settle for some long shots. We just didn't have floor balance to get back and keep those guys off the backboard."

Five Sixers scored in double-figures. Andre Iguodala led his team with 32 points on 12-of-21 shooting, 11 rebounds and seven assists.

Lou Williams (27 points, 10 rebounds, seven assists) and Thaddeus Young (25 points) were too quick for the Knick defenders and scored on a variety of athletic forays to the basket. Elton Brand showed a nice mid-range game in adding 16 points.

Danillo Gallinari, who replaced Harrington in the starting lineup, hit for a career-high 30 points and was 8-of-16 from beyond the arc. His 3-pointer from the right wing with 11.4 seconds left in regulation stoked the crowd and cut the regulation deficit to 121-120.

"He's an extraordinary shooter," Jordan said. "He makes shots when you think he's defended."

After Gallinari's 3, Hughes fouled Jason Kapono with 10.7 seconds left. Kapono missed the first foul shot and made the second to put the Sixers up 122-120.

Chris Duhon scored on a driving layup off an inbounds pass with 5.3 seconds to tie the game at 122.

Iguodala missed a fadeaway jumper at the regulation buzzer.

But in the extra period, the Sixers dominated.

One night after giving up 32 points in the first quarter at Charlotte, the Knicks' porous defense was even worse in falling behind 40-25 after one period. The Sixers shot 16-of-22 (73 percent) in the first 12 minutes.

In the second quarter, the Knicks' defense allowed 30 points and they trailed 70-51 at the break.

Overall, the Sixers dominated in just about every category. They outrebounded (49-31) and outshot (61 percent to 48 percent) the Knicks. They scored more in the paint (55-44) and on second-chance points (20-17).

After the Charlotte loss, Duhon questioned his teammates' preparation for that game, saying, "We lost this game before the game even started."

When asked about the comments before Saturday's game, Duhon's bosses and teammates didn't seem to think it was a huge cause for concern.

"I don't think it's a problem, let me put it that way," Knicks President Donnie Walsh said.

D'Antoni, though, said he was "glad he [Duhon] stepped up."

"He probably could've done it just with the guys," D'Antoni added. "Obviously, that would've been better. But we're trying to get guys to get on the right side of professionalism and we need to do that."

After the Sixers loss, Duhon said he believed his comments got some traction with the team.

"I think everybody responded," he said. "I'm a winner. I hate to lose. Whatever it takes to get this team to win, I'm going to do, if it's vocally or on the court, whatever. I want to win. I want the Knicks to win."
