They had six players score in double figures, getting 14 points from Wesley Matthews, 13 points and 16 rebounds from LaMarcus Aldridge and 11 and 10 points from Raymond Felton and Craig Smith.

 

DeMarcus Cousins had 18 points and 13 rebounds to lead Sacramento while Jimmer Fredette scored 13 on 3-of-4 shooting from three-point range off the bench. Guard Marcus Thornton (thigh) missed the game.

 

The game was all but decided during three-plus minutes in the second quarter when the Blazers used a 13-0 run to take a 15-point lead.

 

"We did try to compete throughout the game but the second quarter got out of hand for us," said Sacramento coach Keith Smart. "We did a better job in the second half."

 

The Blazers also beat Sacramento on December 27, getting a 101-79 win in that one. On Monday, they never let their lead dip below double digits in the second half.

 

Game Notes

 

Knicks superstar Carmelo Anthony squared off against his former team for the first time since being traded to the Big Apple last February and struggled from a shooting standpoint (10-for-30), but scored a team-best 25 points and 10 rebounds and sent the game into overtime on a jumper at the end of regulation. Landry Fields and Iman Shumpert both netted 18 points and Amare Stoudemire had 12 and 11 boards for the Knicks, who went 0-4 on the homestand and sit third in the Atlantic Division behind the 76ers and Celtics.

 

"We're going to win a lot of games if we can keep this intensity and this pace," Knicks coach Mike D'Antoni said. "Obviously, we still have some things to work through, but it's a step in the right direction."

 

Stoudemire's numbers have dropped over the past few games and the Knicks could use a little more help from the talented big man. He said after the loss to the Nuggets that it's not about the numbers, but winning.

 

Charlotte has also fallen on hard times as of late, having lost four straight and 10 of 11 games, including a 97-87 loss at New Jersey on Sunday in the finale of an unsuccessful three-game road trip.

 

"This is part of a learning process for us," Henderson said. "Collectively, we just need to learn how to score more points. That is part of my job, and I need more assists. I'm getting better on offense, especially with my jump shot, but I need to do more. My attitude is I just want to win."

 

The Bobcats are home for just one game before playing two straight and six of seven games as the guest. They are just 2-6 in front of the home crowd.

 

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Plenty of teams have struggled this season because of the NBA lockout but the Indiana Pacers are not one of them. The surprising Central Division inhabitants are 11-4 and off to the best start after 15 games since the 2003-04 squad opened the year 13-2. Indiana is back at home after a successful three-game road trip and will entertain Dwight Howard and the Orlando Magic tonight at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.
