Carmelo Anthony scored a season-high 43 points, making the go-ahead 3-pointer with 8.2 seconds left in overtime as the New York Knicks spoiled a rusty Derrick Rose's return to the lineup and beat the Chicago Bulls 100-99 on Sunday.Rose scored 29 points after missing the previous 12 games with a strained right groin, but he shot only 8 of 26 from the field and missed a pair of free throws with 19 seconds left in regulation and the Bulls ahead by three.Anthony made a 3-pointer eight seconds later to tie it, and scored the final five points of the extra period as the Knicks pulled out a thriller in a possible playoff preview.

the knicks have been a talented/dangerous team for quite a while ............. now that melo is 'happy' with the head coach in place, he's giving full effort. this is basically what they should have been doing all along. and, in fact, orlando is just as dysfunctional as the knicks were most of the season, so i think the knicks have a chance of getting up to the #6 spot.
