NBA Roundup: Anthony ejected as Knicks fall to Bulls

Associated Press
BULLS 110, KNICKS 106: Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony and three others were thrown out of a foul-filled game, and the Chicago Bulls beat New York for the second time this season, 110-106 on Friday night.
New York center Tyson Chandler and Bulls counterpart Joakim Noah were tossed after a fourth-quarter altercation, shortly after Knicks coach Mike Woodson had been ejected following his second technical. He drew a loud ovation during his walk to the locker room from fans who angrily booed the officiating for much of the second half.
Luol Deng had season highs of 29 points and 13 rebounds for the Bulls despite briefly leaving the game with an injured left shoulder. Marco Belinelli added 22 points as Chicago won for the fourth time in five games.
Anthony finished with 29 points on 10-of-25 shooting, ending his streak of four straight 30-point games. The Knicks lost for the second time in three home games after winning their first 10.
Noah finished with 15 points, 12 rebounds and six assists in completely outplaying Chandler.
76ERS 99, HAWKS 80: Thaddeus Young had 18 points and 11 rebounds, and Evan Turner scored 21 points to help Philadelphia topped Atlanta.
Josh Smith led the Hawks with 17 points and Lou Williams scored 13.
BUCKS 99, CELTICS 94: Monta Ellis scored five of his 27 points in overtime, and Milwaukee beat Boston after blowing a seven-point lead late in regulation.
The Bucks won for the sixth time in eight games, taking three of four against the Celtics, who had a five-game home winning streak snapped despite 35 points by Paul Pierce.
PACERS 99, CAVALIERS 89: Roy Hibbert scored 18 points, and Lance Stephenson added a season-high 16 to lead Indiana over Cleveland, which lost its sixth straight game.
Hibbert didn’t have to deal with injured Cavs center Anderson Varejao, the NBA’s leading rebounder. Varejao missed his second game in a row with a bruised right knee.
GRIZZLIES 92, MAVERICKS 82: Archbishop Spalding graduate Rudy Gay scored 26 points, and Zach Randolph had 17 points and 13 rebounds to help Memphis win its fourth straight, topping visiting Dallas.
RAPTORS 93, MAGIC 90: DeMar DeRozan scored 17 points, Jose Calderon had 13 points and nine assists, and Toronto won its fifth straight game, beating Orlando.
SPURS 99, HORNETS 94: Tony Parker had 25 points, Tim Duncan had 15 points and 10 rebounds, and San Antonio beat New Orleans.
Back home after playing six of its previous seven games on the road, San Antonio (19-9) got 13 points from Manu Ginobili and 12 from Boris Diaw.
