SALT LAKE CITY - Kurt Thomas wasnt sure he would even play Monday night after X-rays showed a bone spur in his right foot. The New York Knicks veteran forward not only played, he earned a game ball for a gutsy, 27-minute effort that included six points, three rebounds and a season-high three blocks in a 90-83 victory over the Utah Jazz. "Our defence really shined tonight, especially in the second half," Knicks coach Mike Woodson said of holding Utah to 28.9 per cent shooting after halftime. "Everybody just seemed to make plays defensively when we needed to make stops. And then we made big shots when we had to have it." J.R. Smith scored 20 points, including 18 in the second half, and Raymond Felton had 19 for the short-handed Knicks, who snapped a four-game losing streak. The Knicks (39-26) dropped games at Golden State, Denver, Portland and the Los Angeles Clippers by an average margin of 20 points, but salvaged the last game of their trip with the victory over the turnover-prone Jazz (38-27). "Its going to be a nice ride home," Woodson added. "We have been struggling out here on the road and to win at this altitude and this environment means we were hungry." New York remains atop the Atlantic Division and stayed a game ahead of the Nets for the No. 3 spot in the Eastern Conference playoffs. New York was without leading scorer Carmelo Anthony, who practiced earlier Monday and indicated his right knee feels better since he had fluid drained. New York also remained without centre Tyson Chandler, bothered by a strained neck muscle, and forward Amare Stoudemire, who recently underwent knee surgery. Thomas was a game-time decision, and is expected to undergo an MRI when the team returns to New York on Tuesday. But the 40-year-old provided a big spark off the bench. "Kurt was a true warrior," Smith said. "To fight through what hes been feeling all week and ... do that kind of job on the defensive end and make shots, they dont make that breed no more." Thomas said he was just waiting for his number to be called. "You stay ready and do what you know you can do," he said. The effort surprised even Woodson. "He hadnt played 26 minutes maybe all year and we didnt even know if he was going to play tonight. It was a total team effort but Kurt deserved the game ball tonight," Woodson said. Afterward, Felton wasnt immediately available because he was icing his sore back. And Jason Kidd was nursing a sore left wrist, though X-rays taken immediately after the game were negative. The hurt put on the Jazz, fresh off a big win over Memphis on Saturday, was worse. "We played hard, we competed, we just fell a little short," said Gordon Hayward, who led Utah with 17 points and a career-high four blocks. "That was a tough one to lose." Paul Millsap added 12 points and Al Jefferson 10, but they were a combined 8 of 22. Overall the Jazz shot 38 per cent, scored a season-low 22 points in the paint and missed eight of their last nine shots. "They did a good job of keeping one or two bodies on Paul at all times," Marvin Williams said. "Every time he got the ball they never really gave him a chance to get comfortable." Jazz coach Tyrone Corbin said New York took the Jazz out of their game despite Utahs size advantage. "They were the aggressors tonight," he said. Credit Smith, who had just two points at halftime on 1-of-6 shooting but got in the lane and to the line, making nine of 10 free throws and a 20-footer with 2:36 remaining that sealed the win as the Jazz went cold. Smith, who helped the Knicks beat up on the Jazz on March 9 right after they learned Stoudemire had been lost, scored 10 points in the third quarter as the Knicks took a 66-63 lead. With so many big men out or hurting, Woodson opted for a smaller lineup, one he thought would boost the tempo and offset Utahs front-court advantage. Rookie guard Pablo Prigioni made his first NBA start, finishing within three points, three assists and two rebounds. Smith didnt start but finished strong, with eight points in the fourth quarter. Both teams had plenty to play for Monday, the Knicks trying to save face after their skid and the Jazz entering the night a game behind the Lakers for the eighth and final Western Conference spot. The game was sloppy as they get early, with 24 turnovers in the first half, including 14 by the Jazz leading to 21 Knicks points. "Its been a rough stretch for us on this road trip, a lot of guys in and out of the lineup," Thomas said. "We kept our heads up." NOTES: The early highlight for Utah was a powerful dunk by Williams. ... The Jazz held a 22-13 rebounding edge in the first half, with eight in 10 minutes by Derrick Favours. ... Haywards blocks included one from behind of Knicks F Kenyon Martin. ... Jazz C Jefferson recorded his 30th double-double of the season. http://www.nflseahawksjerseymart.com/elite-richard-sherman-seahawks-jersey.

Andray Blatche led a bevy of Brooklyn reserves, whose most playing time has come in blowout games, with 20 points and 11 rebounds and the Nets erased an early 17-point deficit to beat the Washington Wizards 106-101 on Monday night.MIAMI -- St. Louis catcher Yadier Molina decided not to appeal a five-game suspension for bumping an umpire and spraying him with spittle, saying the punishment was fair. The Cardinals schedule and Molinas sore hand made the decision easier to sit out now. Molina received the suspension Thursday and began serving it hours later when St. Louis opened a four-game series at Florida. The Cardinals are chasing the NL Central-leading Milwaukee Brewers and face them in a crucial three-game series beginning Tuesday. Molina will return from his suspension Wednesday. "I was looking at it like, take it right away," he said. "You want to be part of the race. Its better to do it now and get it done with and move on." Another factor in the decision not to appeal was the bruise on the palm of Molinas right hand. The injury occurred when he blocked a pitch Wednesday, and he said it likely would have kept him out of two or three games anyway. Mollina said the spittle was unintentional but apologized for his tantrum.ddddddddddddAlong with the suspension, he was fined an undisclosed amount. He became incensed after getting called out on strikes by plate umpire Rob Drake in the 10th inning Tuesday night in Milwaukee. After being ejected, Molina kept bumping his chest into Drake, and some spit flew into the umpires face during the dispute. "Im sorry about it for our fans, the people in St. Louis and our organization," Molina said. "Thats not me. Im a good guy. I was caught up in the moment. Thats what happens when youre caught up in the race and trying to win. I didnt handle it the right way." Manager Tony La Russa had no quarrel with the length of the suspension. "Yadier was very animated, and he bumped him," La Russa said. "Youre going to get hit for that. I hope the number didnt reflect the spitting, because I know he didnt do it on purpose." ' ' '
