Philadelphia, PA (SportsNetwork.com) - Carmelo Anthonys 27 points and 11 rebounds propelled the New York Knicks to their first winning streak in over two months by virtue of Wednesdays 98-91 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers. Jose Calderon contributed 15 points and Tim Hardaway Jr. finished with 13 in New Yorks second consecutive triumph. The Knicks ended a franchise-record 16- game skid with Mondays 99-92 decision over New Orleans. Its only the second time this season the Knicks, who entered this matchup between the Eastern Conferences bottom two teams with a league-worst 6-36 record, have won back-to-back games. The other time came from Oct. 30-Nov. 2 in the clubs second and third outings of the season. The Sixers received 27 points, seven assists and five steals from Michael Carter-Williams, but shot just 36.7 percent from the field in their third consecutive loss. Robert Covington added 17 points for Philadelphia and Henry Sims posted 11 points and 12 rebounds in defeat. The Knicks never trailed after taking the lead late in the second quarter and were able to create some distance near the end of an otherwise tightly contested first half. A 9-2 run capped by Amare Stoudemires putback slam 9.8 seconds prior to the intermission staked New York to a 49-42 advantage before Carter Williams sunk a last-second shot to bring Philadelphia within seven at the break. Anthony then buried consecutive 3-pointers to begin a third quarter in which the Knicks maintained a double-digit differential much of the way. New York was up by at least eight throughout the period and carried a 74-62 lead into the fourth. The Sixers did make a push during the final frame, with Carter-Williams tallying the final seven points of a 9-2 surge that trimmed the margin to 78-75 with seven minutes to go. A Covington triple with 1:40 remaining had Philadelphia within 91-87. The teams then hit two free throws on their next possessions before Knicks rookie Langston Galloway delivered the dagger, collecting an offensive rebound and draining a corner 3-pointer with the shot clock winding down that put New York up 96-89 with 15.3 seconds showing. After both teams struggled to score during an opening quarter that ended in an 18-18 tie, the Knicks began the second on a 9-2 run before the Sixers countered with an 11-2 push to claim a 31-29 edge just over five minutes into the stanza.

The four-time world champs lead at 79.CLEVELAND -- Cavaliers rookie forward Anthony Bennett of Brampton, Ont., the top pick in this years NBA draft, has asthma and sleep apnea. Cleveland coach Mike Brown revealed Bennetts conditions Thursday night before the Cavs hosted the Detroit Pistons in an exhibition game. Bennetts asthma was not widely known and obviously did not prevent the Cavs from taking the former UNLV star in Junes draft. Bennett has had some breathing issues during workouts and in preseason games, and him being sometimes winded had been attributed to him not being able to work out as much this summer after undergoing shoulder surgery in May. But Brown said Bennett also deals with asthma and wears a mask at night for his sleep apnea. "Its a culmination of a lot of things," Brown said. "The shoulder, hes been out for a while, hes got asthmaa.dddddddddddd Were throwing a lot at him. Hes probably never played this hard against this competition in his life. Hes got sleep apnea and some other things. He likes to stay up late." The 6-foot-8, 259-pound Bennett averaged 10 points and 6.3 rebounds in his first three NBA preseason games. Hes coming off the bench for Brown, and made his first shot -- a 3-pointer -- against the Pistons and followed that up with a breakaway dunk. Brown said Bennetts breathing issues are noticeable. "Its been tiring to watch him because every time I watch him hes (gasping)," Brown said. "It makes me tired, so I try not to look at him. I tell him, If you need a sub, just tell me. Otherwise Im not going to look at you." Bennett was not in Clevelands locker room during the period it was open for media members.
