NEW YORK, N. Gerald
Everett Jersey
.Y. - Just to the left of their bench was a row of fans
wearing paper bags over their heads. On the court in front of them, a New York
Knicks team filled with unrecognizable faces.Only thing that mattered to the
Houston Rockets is how they looked.James Harden had 25 points and nine assists
in just three quarters and the Rockets beat New York 120-96 on Thursday night to
extend the Knicks longest single-season losing streak to 14 games.The Rockets
beat New York for the 11th straight time, though everyone is beating the Knicks
these days. New York has lost 24 of its last 25 games to fall to an NBA-worst
5-34.Were kind of looking at the bigger picture. Bigger picture is us playing at
a high level, all on the same page. No matter what team were playing against,
weve got to play great, Harden said. So tonight was a challenge for us. The
Knicks arent doing so well but our mindset was to come in here and play Rockets
basketball.Trevor Ariza added 18 points for the Rockets, who improved to just
4-4 in their last eight. Harden didnt reach his NBA-leading average of 26.8
points only because he was limited to 31 minutes, sitting out the fourth quarter
with Houston already leading by 24.Rookie Travis Wear scored a season-high 21
points and Langston Galloway had 19 for the Knicks in his second game since
being called up from the NBA Development League. Rookie Cleanthony Early added a
season-best 16.The Knicks overmatched lineup managed some neat fast breaks and
dunks, entertaining a sold-out crowd that featured five fans wearing paper bags
sitting right behind one of the baselines, easily noticeable during the
nationally televised broadcast.Dwight Howard said he saw the fans, figuring they
were just embarrassed about the game.Its an unfortunate situation, but only
thing you can do is remember were all blessed to be able to play this sport,
blessed to be alive and go from there, Howard said.The Knicks couldnt sustain
their brief runs. Without the injured Carmelo Anthony, Amare Stoudemire, and
Andrea Bargnani, they sometimes had lineups on the floor more suited to summer
league than the NBA.Its tough mentally, but weve got to be professional and just
keep playing and working hard, veteran Jose Calderon said after a scoreless
performance he called one of his worst games in the NBA.They were close early in
the second quarter before Harden scored or assisted on all five of Houstons
baskets during a 13-2 run that pushed it to 43-30. He finished the half with a
3-pointer that made it 56-42.Howard opened the third quarter with consecutive
three-point plays to push the lead to 20, and coach Derek Fisher soon turned to
his youth.Those guys that started the half gave up 12 points in three minutes.
So they didnt deserve to be still in the game and we went to the younger guys,
Fisher said.Donatas Motiejunas finished with 17 points and Howard had 13 points
and 10 rebounds.TIP-INSRockets: Houston hasnt lost to the Knicks since Jan. 26,
2009. ... In a strange bit of scheduling, the Rockets return home for one game
before coming right back to New York. They host Utah on Saturday, then turn
right around to visit Brooklyn on Monday.Knicks: New Yorks longest losing streak
ever is 20 games over two seasons. The Knicks lost 12 straight at the end of the
1984-85 season, then dropped the first eight games of the 1985-86 season even
after landing Patrick Ewing with the No. 1 pick in the draft.NO PRESSUREHoward
said hes known Josh Smith since he was 3 or 4 years old and they played AAU
basketball together. But Howard, remembering his own free agency from 2013,
didnt pressure his old friend to join the Rockets after Detroit waived him.I
know how it feels to have everybody try to call you, make this decision for you,
so I just wanted him to make his own decision, Howard said.UP NEXTRockets: Host
Utah on Saturday night.Knicks: Host Charlotte on Saturday.

. The Oilers will try to get back in the win column on
Monday when they continue a four-game road trip with a battle against the

NHL record for saves in a regular-season shutout.
