Latrell Sprewell arrived early, entered the game
late and disappeared down the stretch along with the rest of his
team.
Sprewell played his first game of the season, but couldn't
reverse the New York Knicks' slide as the Philadelphia 76ers scored
17 of the final 25 points for a 93-92 victory Saturday.
''C-plus,'' Sprewell said when asked to assess his performance.
''I could have been a lot better.''
The 76ers won on the road for the first time this season, while
the defeat was the fourth in a row for the Knicks. Allen Iverson and
Todd MacCulloch each scored 17 points, Keith Van Horn had 15 points
and 12 rebounds and Eric Snow added 14 points for the 76ers.
The habitually tardy Sprewell arrived at the arena six minutes
before his team's 11:30 a.m. deadline, then made his first
appearance nine minutes into the game -- the first time he came off
the bench since the 1999 playoffs.
Sprewell played 31 minutes and had 16 points on 6-for-15
shooting but was held scoreless for the final 10 minutes.
Howard Eisley had 16 points and 10 assists for the Knicks, whose
1-8 record is the worst in the Eastern Conference.
''We have a whole lot of basketball left,'' Sprewell said. ''If
we give up now, it could get a whole lot worse.''
Sprewell, who missed the first seven weeks of the preseason and
regular season while recovering from a broken hand, scored seven of
his points in a 16-4 run bridging the third and fourth quarters as
New York turned a 63-58 deficit into a 74-67 lead. The rally
injected some life into a crowd that had been waiting nearly all
season for something to cheer.
Sprewell was poised to restore the Knicks' seven-point lead
after he poked the ball away from Snow and went in alone for a
breakaway dunk. But a moment before he jammed the ball with two
hands, Kurt Thomas body checked trailing defender Brian Skinner and
was called for a foul, erasing the basket.
''I'm still mad at Kurt,'' Sprewell said with a laugh.
''Actually, he said he thought (Skinner) was going to foul me.''
Thomas picked up a technical foul for arguing during a timeout
less than a minute later, and Iverson hit the foul shot to cut the
deficit to four. Eisley answered with a 3-pointer and Othella
Harrington hit two foul shots for a 79-70 lead.
It was 84-76 with 6:05 left before the 76ers rallied, holding
New York without a field goal for four minutes and using an 11-2
run to take an 87-85 lead.
Iverson tied it at 89 on two foul shots with 1:52 left. Michael
Doleac missed a jumper and Van Horn scored on a putback, making it
91-89, and Allan Houston missed a jumper from the corner with 30
seconds left.
Game notes
Keith Bishop, a 31-year-old school bus driver from Hudson
Falls, N.Y., hit a shot from halfcourt to win $1 million. He
received a handshake from Iverson and a roar from the crowd that
was many times louder than the cheers that greeted Sprewell when he
checked in for the first time. ... To make room for Sprewell on the
active roster, forward Mark Pope was placed in the injured list. ...
Knicks coach Don Chaney indicated that Charlie Ward (bruised lower
leg) will not return until Friday night at the earliest. ''He's not
close to being ready yet,'' Chaney said. ... Houston missed a free
throw late in the fourth quarter, his first miss after 33
consecutive makes. ... The last time the Knicks were 1-8 was
1985-86.
Allen Iverson scored enough points to catch Shaquille O'Neal but not enough for the Philadelphia 76ers to catch the Charlotte Hornets.
Iverson scored 39 points to take over the league scoring lead from O'Neal but the Hornets found the range in overtime and dealt the 76ers a 117-110 loss that dumped them into seventh place in the Eastern Conference.
Elden Campbell scored seven of his 18 points in overtime for the Hornets, who blew a 21-point first-half lead and needed a reverse dunk by Eddie Jones off an airball by Chucky Brown to force the extra session with 2.9 seconds left in regulation.
"We missed our free throws in the fourth quarter (5-of-9) and missed a big box-out at the end to win the game," Philadelphia coach Larry Brown said. "We talked about boxing out during the timeout. Eddie Jones was incredible for them."
"That was luck. I saw the ball was short," said Jones, who scored 28 points and did a credible job on Iverson.
Iverson had given the 76ers a 100-98 lead with a 3-pointer with 6.8 seconds to go. But he scored only four points in overtime, missing 21-of-35 shots and 7-of-16 free throws overall, as his play resembled the wild offensive game he displayed as a rookie.
"The kid is awesome," Hornets interim coach Paul Silas said. "They ran plays and set great picks for him and he made us pay."
"In overtime, they made some shots and we missed some," Iverson said. "We just didn't execute like we'd like to."
Nevertheless, Iverson is averaging 26.61 points while O'Neal, the superstar center of the Los Angeles Lakers, is at 26.47. On Wednesday, Iverson's 76ers host the Detroit Pistons and O'Neal's Lakers entertain Portland.
If the Sixers (27-22) win, they will be no lower than seventh in the East. They could finish sixth if Milwaukee (28-21) loses at New Jersey or as low as eighth if they lose and New York (26-23) defeats Miami.
"Seventh or eighth means we are still in the playoffs," said Sixers center Matt Geiger, who had 22 points and 13 rebounds but was saddled by foul trouble in trying to defend Campbell in overtime. "We played well enough to get in. ... We will just have to get started tonight with playoff basketball. It is upon us."
David Wesley had 19 points and 10 assists, Bobby Phills scored 17 points and Eldridge Recasner added 16 for Charlotte, which was eliminated from the playoff race Monday but bounced back to beat Philadelphia for the first time in three meetings this season. The Hornets scored the most points against the 76ers this season after combining for only 136 in the first two games.
"We know we're a playoff team," said Jones, who was acquired in a mid-season trade. "We may not be in the playoffs, but we know we're a playoff team."
After a 4-11 start that led to the resignation of coach Dave Cowens, Charlotte (25-24) has gone 21-13 under Silas and visits Boston on Wednesday.
"It's an important game," Silas said. "We're going to do all we can to win it. It would be nice to finish the season on a winning note."
Campbell opened the overtime scoring with a free throw to give the Hornets the lead for good and Wesley drilled a 3-pointer. Philadelphia's Aaron McKie made a jumper but Campbell responded with a nine-footer for a 106-102 lead with 2:59 to go.
Iverson made two free throws but Campbell hit another jumper. McKie's basket cut the deficit to 108-106 with 1:56 left before Phills, Campbell and Jones scored in a 38-second span to seal it at 114-106 with 43 seconds to play.
"We went to Elden a lot late in the game trying to foul Geiger out," Silas said. "He made several big shots in the overtime."
Chucky Brown scored 14 points and Campbell grabbed 11 rebounds for the Hornets, who shot 47 percent (39-of-83) from the field and made 32-of-39 free throws. Campbell and Wesley made six steals each and Jones added five and four blocks.
Rookie Larry Hughes scored 13 points and McKie and Eric Snow added 12 apiece for the Sixers, who shot 45 percent (42-of-94) and held a 48-44 rebounding edge. George Lynch grabbed eight rebounds and Snow handed out eight assists.
The Hornets shot 57 percent (12-of-21) and held the Sixers to just 27 percent (6-of-22) in the first quarter, opening a 36-16 lead. Jones scored 12 points in the period and his dunk gave Charlotte its largest lead at 49-28 with 4:09 left in the second quarter.
The Sixers closed to 58-42 at halftime and Iverson and Geiger scored nine points each in the third quarter to help cut the deficit to 77-74. Hughes' three-point play gave Philadelphia an 80-79 lead with 10:08 left in the fourth quarter.
"If we could have guven the energy we gave in the second half in the beginning of the game, we could have won this game," Brown said. "We can't expect to play this way during the playoffs."
If the outcome was a surprise to anyone, those people need to check themselves.
Temple was faced with a huge task yesterday and didn't deliver. Not so much because of effort as inability.
Against Georgetown, the nation's fifth-ranked team, the Owls posed little resistance as sophomore sensation Allen Iverson went for 24 points. Victor Page, his freshman backcourt mate, added 18 - with an aerial show for emphasis - as the Hoyas breezed to a 74-49 win over Temple in the second round of the Preseason National Invitation Tournament at USAir Arena.
The win advanced the Hoyas (2-0) to New York for the tournament semifinals Wednesday night against Georgia Tech. The Owls (1-1) headed home for an eight- day break.
"I learned a lot today," Temple coach John Chaney said. "I learned I've got some good people on this team.
"No one was pointing fingers at each other. It's easy to handle the high tide, and everyone's a good guy when you're winning. But when you lose, that's when you test the spirit of your players."
The framework of the game was established within a few seconds: The Hoyas would score off fastbreaks, follow layups or post moves, and score they would. And the Owls could do very little to stop them.
Jerome Williams (14 points, 12 rebounds) converted a layup on the first play of the game. A Temple turnover followed and Boubacar Aw scored on another layup, indicating what was on the horizon.
The Hoyas, sparked by a running jumper and two layups by Iverson, opened with an 11-2 run and kept going. Temple tried creeping up from behind, getting a follow slam by Huey Futch (seven points), and a couple of layups from Johnny Miller, but the closest the Owls got was seven points (30-23) with 4 minutes, 28 seconds left in the half.
Then Page went to work, hitting two free throws and two jumpers, then punctuating the half with a spectacular flying slam over Lynard Stewart, enabling Georgetown to go up, 42-27, at the break.
"You can never give Temple but so much," Georgetown coach John Thompson said. "They just chip away at you . . . But the key was the lack of that third guard. We knew they didn't have that, and we wanted to attack their guards and take advantage."
That would explain Temple's difficulty in running plays, setting screens, having anyone but the point guard distributing the ball. The Owls also had 14 turnovers and shot just 26 percent in the second half.
The bright spot, as expected, was Miller. The "other" sophomore guard was 0 for 5 on three-pointers in the first half, causing more problems for Temple, but came to life in the second half, finishing with 21 points on 9-for-22 shooting.
His help, however, was scarce.
Miller knifed his way through the lane numerous times, only to have his passes dropped or open layups missed. The turnovers fueled Georgetown's momentum, which made the outcome that much more predictable.
"We didn't play our game," Miller said after battling Iverson all day. ''Playing them is good for this team because of the pressure they threw at us, but losing never is good. We've got to come back from this and just play our game, that's all."
The Hoyas never stopped playing theirs as Iverson and Page took over in the second half. Steals, high-flying dunks, assists, rebounds . . . name it and they did it, and no one other than Miller had an answer.
Temple scored just four points in the first 6:20 of the second half. The Owls made just 33 percent of their shots, shot only seven free throws, were outrebounded, 47-34, and had just four assists.
It was a learning experience that might come in handy against the top-notch opponents Temple will play later this season. But it didn't make the day any better.
"The best time to test your team is the early portion of the season. That's why this was a good game for us," Chaney said.
