Jazz-Knicks Preview

The New York Knicks' continued struggles are hardly a big surprise, but the Utah Jazz certainly weren't planning on such a slow start.

The Jazz will face more challenges during a tough four-game road trip, but they'll hope to begin with a victory Monday night at Madison Square Garden against the sputtering Knicks.

Utah (2-4) has averaged 51 wins over the last three seasons, but it has not looked like a playoff team during its lackluster start, which hit a new low with a 104-99 home loss to Sacramento on Saturday.

The defeat was especially surprising considering that Utah was 33-8 at home last season while the Kings had the worst record in the NBA. The Jazz, though, were outscored 30-13 in the third quarter and allowed Sacramento to shoot 11 of 19 from 3-point range in the game.

"It was a bad game for us, period," point guard Deron Williams said. "We had a 15-point lead in the second quarter and then just let it slip away. Then the third quarter was even worse."

The Jazz lost despite season highs of 29 points and 15 assists from Williams. Last season, the team won its first five games with Williams sidelined due to an ankle injury.

Utah coach Jerry Sloan felt his team's problems may have had something to do with effort.

"I thought we'd come with a lot more energy," Sloan told his team's official Web site.

Utah, already 0-2 on the road, now embarks on a trip that includes games at Eastern Conference powers Boston and Cleveland. The visit to New York may present the team's best chance for a victory, even though the Jazz have lost five straight games there since a 92-78 win on Feb. 20, 2004.

That's because the Knicks (1-6) have allowed at least 100 points in each of their seven games, with opponents shooting 49.8 percent from the field - among the worst marks in the NBA.

In its third straight defeat, New York gave up 40 points in the first quarter of a 102-87 loss at Milwaukee on Saturday, trailing by 31 at halftime and never competing with the Bucks.

"I don't know," guard Chris Duhon said. "We just got to continue to figure it out. It's just one of those things where we're struggling in many ways. The only way you can get out of it is just fighting through it."

Duhon was removed after going 0 of 4 and scoring one point, while Wilson Chandler and Al Harrington combined to shoot 2 of 17 (11.8 percent) and scored eight points.

Harrington, already removed from the starting lineup, has had his minutes decrease as he continues to struggle. He's still the Knicks' leading scorer even after shooting below 40 percent for the fourth straight game.

Rookie Jordan Hill, the eighth overall pick in last summer's draft, saw his most extensive action against the Bucks, totaling seven points and six rebounds in 13 minutes. Fellow first-year player Toney Douglas had 16 points - easily his most in six games.

"They are earning some more time," Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni told his team's official Web site. "We're early yet, so we're going to go like we've been going and just trying to get better. ... But I do like what I've been seeing out of Toney Douglas. He's seems to get better all the time. And Jordan did some stuff."

Knicks jolted by Jazz at the Garden

NEW YORK (NBA.com exclusive) -- Once again the Knicks fell behind by 20 or more points early. Once again they made a frenetic run late. And once again they came up short in the end.

The Utah Jazz became the latest team to come into Madison Square Garden and beat the Knicks, 95-93, before a crowd of 19,355.

Andrei Kirilenko scored 14 of his 23 points in the second half, when he went a perfect 4-for-4 from beyond the arc against New York's newly-installed 2-3 zone. Carlos Boozer added 23 points and 14 rebounds and Mehmet Okur had 18 and 12.

"We got a good win after having some tough losses and move forward," Boozer said.

Rookie Toney Douglas scored a career-high 21 points on 9-of-13 shooting for New York, but missed an off-balance nine-footer as time expired on the Knicks.

Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni said Larry Hughes was supposed to get the inbounds pass from Danilo Gallinari and take the shot, but Douglas got the ball instead. He drove into the paint before faking out Utah's Deron Williams and putting up a shot that rolled off the rim.

"It was supposed to be Larry but sometimes things ain't going to work out like the way it goes, so you got to adjust to that," Douglas said. "At least we got a shot up, that's how I feel."

Coming off Sunday's loss to Sacramento, Utah improved to 3-4. The Jazz close out the week with a tough stretch of road games at Boston, Philadelphia and Cleveland. The Knicks lost their fourth straight and dropped to 1-7.

"A loss is a loss," said Knicks center David Lee, who scored 12 points. "Unfortunately, this counts the same way as the Milwaukee one [Sunday] does although the Milwaukee game feels like about 10 losses with how we played. I can't live with losing, but I feel like we're doing better with tonight's game than we did."

Utah outrebounded the Knicks, 53-40, including 12-7 on the offensive glass.

The Jazz also outshot the Knicks, 46 percent to 43 percent, including 38 percent to 28 percent from beyond the arc.

The Knicks watched tape of Sacramento's win over Utah and installed a 2-3 zone to imitate Sacramento's success.

It didn't work early, as the Jazz led by as many as 21 points in the third quarter, but it paid dividends down the stretch. After missing all 10 of their first-half 3-point attempts and trailing 48-31 at the break, the Knicks shot 8-of-19 from beyond the arc in the second half and outscored the Jazz, 62-47.

"I think a lot has to do with the zone," Jazz coach Jerry Sloan said. "Every time the zone has come at us we couldn't really get out and get way away from them and have enough success in three or four possessions."

Said D'Antoni of the zone: "They are really good at what they do and we tried to make them play a different game. Kirilenko got hot and that hurt us."

Still, Kirilenko didn't hit a single 3-pointer in the final quarter.

After trailing by as many as 21 points in the second half, the Knicks rattled off a 10-0 run -- getting five points apiece from Al Harrington (11 points) and Gallinari -- to cut it to 84-83.

Douglas tied the game at 93 on a driving layup with 1:36 left.

But Okur hit a layup to give Utah the lead back at 95-93.

On New York's next possession, Ronnie Brewer stuffed a Hughes jump shot that might have tied the game.

After Brewer missed a jumper on the other end, New York called two timeouts with 6.4 seconds left to set up the play that eventually led to Douglas' missed jumper.

Douglas played more than 23 minutes in the game at the point, while starter Chris Duhon played 28 minutes and scored eight points on 2-of-7 shooting.

Duhon has come under fire recently for the team's struggles. He was pulled in the third quarter of the Milwaukee loss because of his poor defensive play.

After the game, Duhon gave all credit to Douglas.

"He played well," Duhon said. "He knocked down his open shots. He got to the basket, finished well. Defensively, he was really active. We're going to need that. He has to continue to play that way for us."
