In other NBA games it was Seattle 126, Toronto 121; Boston 102, Houston 82;
Philadelphia 113, the Los Angeles Clippers 108; Cleveland 108, Orlando 100; and
Denver 102, Minnesota 91.
 New York reached season highs with 105 points, 41 field goals, 22
assists 15 steals, in addition to its sharp shooting.
Peja Stojakovic scored 14 of his 31 points in the fourth quarter, but missed
seven 3-pointers for the Kings, whose 2-5 start is their worst since 1997 — the
year before coach Rick Adelman took over the club.
Mike Bibby had 18 points and seven assists, but Sacramento was booed off the
court after a horrific first half in which New York led by 19 points. The boos
returned when the Knicks scored 12 straight points spanning the third and fourth
quarters to blow it open again.
SuperSonics 126, Raptors 121
At Toronto, Rashard Lewis scored 41 points and the Seattle SuperSonics blew
an 18-point lead in the fourth quarter but recovered to beat the winless
Raptors.
Nick Collison added 20 points for the Sonics, who lost by 41 points to
Washington on Friday. Their only other victory this season was in overtime
against Minnesota on Nov. 4.
Mike James had a career-high 36 points for the Raptors, 0-6 for the first
time in their 11-year history. Rookie Charlie Villanueva added 26 points and 12
rebounds.
