"Let's just be quite frank about them," Carmelo Anthony said after the Knicks cruised to a 100-85 win over the Celtics on Tuesday night. "We always want to beat Boston. New York in anything wants to beat Boston and when we do, it's a great feeling." J.R. Smith came off the bench to score 32 points, Anthony added 29 and the Knicks extended their winning streak to five games while handing the Celtics their fifth straight loss. It's tough for a lot of teams to come here and win (but) we're playing for something," Knicks coach Mike Woodson said. "They're playing for something, too, and they're a little beat up, like we are. And I just thought tonight our defense set the tone early and it was a nice flow for 48 minutes." The Celtics, playing their second straight game without Kevin Garnett, were led by Jeff Green with 19 points and Paul Pierce with 16. But they committed 20 turnovers, while the Knicks, who average the fewest turnovers in the NBA, had just eight. "We've got to get back to playing with more energy, forcing a lot of turnovers like we were three or four weeks ago," Pierce said, "turning the ball over less if we're going to give ourselves a chance." Garnett is expected to miss about two weeks with inflammation in his left ankle. Starting guard Courtney Lee also sat out his second game in a row with a sprained left ankle. Starters Rajon Rondo and Jared Sullinger already are sidelined for the season. "Kevin's not playing. I don't worry about it," Celtics coach Doc Rivers said. "Overall, we were pretty bad tonight. Kevin had nothing to do with that." Smith disagrees, especially after driving to the hoop for several baskets. "It feels like they didn't have any shot blockers," he said. "So (I) take it to the basket, draw fouls, find some teammates that get open and play from there." The Knicks were without two key big men. Tyson Chandler has a bulging disk and missed his seventh consecutive game, while Amare Stoudemire was sidelined for the 10th game following knee surgery that is expected to keep him out four more weeks. "We credit everything we do to our defense," Smith said. "When we get out and run, no one can really run with us." Neither team shot well, with Boston making 44.9 percent of its attempts and New York hitting 43.3 percent. But the Knicks had 15 offensive rebounds, six by Anthony, compared to seven by the Celtics, and took 21 more shots. "No one played well," Rivers said. "They just had a lot of extra shots to miss and they made a couple of them." The Knicks led 84-69 entering the fourth quarter and took their biggest lead, 91-74, on a 3-pointer by Novak. "We allowed them to get easy layups," Green said. "We allowed them to get a good rhythm and that's when they started knocking down threes and it put us on our heels." And that led to another win in Boston for New York. "A great road win for us, especially in this arena," Anthony said. "Knowing how hostile it can get here and knowing how well they play here at home in front of their fans, it just says a lot about our team." -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 42.66.119.217
