Crawford scores 52 points as Knicks burn Heat
Basketball Betting Lines
01/27/2007 -
New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jamal Crawford lit up the Heat for a career-
high 52 points, hitting 20-of-30 from the field, and 8-of-10 from behind the
arc, to lead New York Knicks' 116-96 rout of the Miami Heat.
Channing Frye added 16 points for New York, which snapped a two-game skid with
the win. David Lee scored 11 points and grabbed 12 rebounds, and Stephon
Marbury tallied 13 assists and nine points in the win.
Crawford's career night obscured a 37-point performance by Miami's Dwyane
Wade. Antoine Walker added 12 points off the bench for the Heat, who have lost
two straight and four of five. Shaquille O'Neal and Jason Kapono added 11
points apiece for Miami.
The Knicks, behind an unconscious shooting performance by Crawford, put the
game away in the third quarter. Crawford rebounded from missing his first
shots by making his next 16, three shy of a Knicks record. He hit his first
eight three-pointers, including one that bulged the New York lead to 23
points, at 76-53, midway through the third quarter. Crawford scored 23 points
in the third quarter alone, and had 46 points entering the fourth quarter.
The Heat never made a game of it in the final 12 minutes, as the main story
became Crawford, and how many points he would finish with. The seventh-year
guard took a seat shortly after hitting a jumper with 6:59 left in the game, a
basket that put New York up 110-85, and bested his previous career-high of 50
points in the process.
Wade kept the Heat in the game early, scoring 13 points in the first quarter.
Crawford, in a sign of what was to come, hit a three with 1:28 left in the
quarter that tied the game at 25-25. Jason Williams and Kapono answered
with back-to-back threes, though, and the Heat took a 33-27 lead into the
second quarter.
Crawford heated up in the second quarter, scoring 20 points in the stanza. He
closed the first half notably, with a four-point play in the final seconds
that closed a 15-2 Knicks stretch, giving New York a 65-49 lead at the break.

best of seven...Crawford also scored 23 points in the fourth quarter of
