Knicks Report:

With Carmelo Anthony (sore left knee) sidelined, New York put forth a tremendous effort against Oklahoma City on Tuesday at Madison Square Garden. Six Knicks scored in double figures as Derek Fisher's squad battled to overtime before falling, 128-122.

Langston Galloway and Derrick Williams combined to score 40 points off the bench, and they'll be counted on to step up again tonight with news from this morning's shootaround that Anthony will miss tonight's contest.

Melo said he feels much better, but he wants one more day and night to recover before trying to play tomorrow at home against Phoenix. Lance Thomas returned after missing three games with his own knee soreness, scoring 16 points as he started in Anthony's place.
