Lin helps Knicks win 5th straight
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 23 - 03 - 2012

Amare Stoudemire scored 21 points and Jeremy Lin added 18 to power the New York Knicks to their fifth victory in a row, defeating hosts Philadelphia 82-79 in an NBA matchup Wednesday.
The Knicks have not lost since Mike Woodson took over as coach, replacing Mike D'Antoni, who resigned after disagreeing with ownership and players over the direction the team should take.
At 23-24, the Knicks are eighth in the Eastern Conference. And by beating the 76ers, 26-21, they pulled within three games of Atlantic division leader Philadelphia in the standings.
Lakers 109, Mavericks 93: Kobe Bryant scored 30 points, and Pau Gasol added 27 points and 9 rebounds as the Los Angeles Lakers stopped the host Dallas Mavericks' four-game winning streak with a victory. Ramon Sessions contributed 17 points and 9 assists in his fourth game for the Lakers since he was acquired in a trade with Cleveland on March 15.
Magic 103, Suns 93: At Orlando, Dwight Howard scored 28 points and grabbed 16 rebounds to power the host Magic over the Phoenix Suns 103-93. Ryan Anderson scored a game-high 29 points for Orlando.
Bulls 94, Raptors 82: In Toronto, the NBA-leading Chicago Bulls had 17 points and 10 rebounds from Britain's Luol Deng to take the visitors past the Raptors 94-82. Chicago rose to an NBA-best 39-10 with a third consecutive triumph.
Thunder 114, Clippers 91: Western Conference leader Oklahoma City trounced the visiting Los Angeles Clippers 114-91, with Kevin Durant scoring a game-high 32 points and Russell Westbrook adding 19 points.
Wizards 108, Nets 89: Nene had 22 points and 10 rebounds in his Washington debut, and the Wizards won a game in Newark marred by the third-quarter ejections of Nets guard Deron Williams and Coach Avery Johnson.
Williams and Johnson were ejected by the referee Josh Tiven with 5 minutes 18 seconds left in the third quarter for arguing a noncall on Williams's drive to the basket seconds earlier. Tiven appeared to call all four technical fouls.
Nuggets 116, Pistons 115: The newly acquired JaVale McGee rebounded a missed free throw after a basket with five seconds remaining and dunked to give host Denver the win after the Nuggets blew a 25-point lead.
Spurs 116, Timberwolves 100: Tim Duncan had 21 points and 15 rebounds, and San Antonio beat visiting Minnesota despite playing most of the game without its All-Star guard, Tony Parker. He left with tightness in his left hamstring with 8:03 left in the first half.
Hawks 103, Cavaliers 102: Atlanta's Joe Johnson hit a tying 3-pointer at the end of regulation and sank a baseline jumper with 10 seconds left in overtime to beat Cleveland. Josh Smith led the Hawks with 32 points and 17 rebounds.
Warriors 101, Hornets 92: The rookie Klay Thompson scored a career-high 27 points and David Lee added 25 as Golden State ended a four-game losing streak by winning at New Orleans. Jarrett Jack had his first career triple-double for the Hornets with 17 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds.
