LeBron James leaned back and yawned. The Cavaliers didn't wake up until it was almost too late.

James, resting a sprained left ankle for the NBA playoffs, missed his first game this season on Thursday night and could only cheer as his teammates rallied for a 91-87 win over the injury-thinned New York Knicks.

Coming off one of the worst games of his young career, Dwyane Wade studied video, made adjustments and took it to the New York Knicks. Wade had 30 points, nine assists and five rebounds to help the Miami Heat beat the Knicks 111-100 on Sunday night. "He's methodical. He really took in the film today," Heat coach Pat Riley said.

In a season where little has gone right, chalk up one huge wrong for the New York Knicks. Rookie Channing Frye left the Knicks' 114-109 loss to the Toronto Raptors on Tuesday night with a sprained left knee ligament -- an injury caused when teammate Nate Robinson seemed to knock Andre Barrett into him.

New York Knicks rookie Channing Frye will miss the rest of the season because of a sprained left knee ligament. An MRI exam in New York on Wednesday confirmed the injury. Frye will be on crutches for the next three weeks, but surgery will not be needed. The Knicks expect Frye to be able to return in time for summer league play in July.

Maybe Dwight Howard should come off the bench every night. The second-year forward had 23 points and seven rebounds in 23 minutes, and the Magic rolled over the New York Knicks 111-87 Wednesday night in Steve Francis' return to Orlando. Howard, a 20-year-old drafted last year out of high school, missed the first start of his entire athletic career after showing up late for shootaround.

One of the NBA's oldest rivalries is not much of a competition anymore. Paul Pierce and Wally Szczerbiak each scored 22 points, Delonte West added 21, and the Boston Celtics beat the New York Knicks 123-98 on Wednesday night. The Celtics snapped a two-game losing streak and handed the Knicks their sixth straight loss.

It looked like a mismatch: The turnover-prone New York Knicks against an excellent defensive team in the Memphis Grizzlies. And that's exactly the way it turned out. Pau Gasol scored 36 points, and the Grizzlies used a dominant defensive effort to pull away early and beat the Knicks 91-75 Friday night for their sixth straight victory.

After the Minnesota Timberwolves avoided their biggest collapse in franchise history, Kevin Garnett made it clear he doesn't want to go through another season like this one. And both Garnett and Stephon Marbury said they would be open to being reunited in the future -- although neither seems to want to change cities.

The New York Knicks (or New York Knickerbockers) are a National Basketball Association team based in New York, New York.

Primary logo design: The words "NEW YORK KNICKS" (with "KNICKS" being larger than the other two words) above a basketball on top of an upturned isosceles triangle. The design is featured on the Knicks uniform shorts. This is a modernized version of the "roundball" logo the Knicks have used since 1964.

Other logo designs: The Knicks also use a circular emblem, with the letters NYK, designed to look like a subway token. From the late 1960s to 1990, the Knicks used an orange interlocking NY logo -- the same design as on the New York Yankees' jerseys --on their warmup jackets and later their shorts (sometimes within an "apple" silhouette, sometimes by itself); it remains on their throwback-uniform shorts.

2005-06 Record: 19-49 (as of 25 March 2006)

Main Rival(s): Indiana Pacers, Chicago Bulls, Miami Heat, New Jersey Nets, Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers.
