The New York Knicks lost to the Miami Heat on Friday night (Jan. 27), despite hitting 18 three-pointers in the game. Now the team has to travel to play the Houston Rockets in the second game of this short road trip. This is a Houston team that can get up and down the floor pretty quickly and will become a defensive nightmare for the Knicks.
Houston is 11-8 on the season and has one of the best point guards in the league running the team. Kyle Lowry is averaging 15.5 points, 8.5 assists and 6.8 rebounds a game and seems destined to make the Western Conference All-Star team.

(AP) LOS ANGELES — Chris Burdens latest kinetic sculpture, Metropolis II, does more than just imitate life. The colorful display of roads, cars, trains and buildings is art imitating what the artist foresees life being like in five or 10 years.
It will be a time, Burden forecasts, when cars will race across Los Angeles no-longer-gridlocked freeways and streets, past a skyline of towering buildings and single-family homes, at speeds of 240 miles per hour or more.
Thats just what the tiny cars do in Metropolis II, a colorful contraption composed of 1,100 miniature vehicles, 18 miniature roads, a tiny commuter rail line and dozens of small skyscrapers and other buildings. The cars,...

Sharks winger Ryane Clowe missed Tuesdays game against the Flames with an upper-body injury that coach Todd McLellan told CSN Bay Area is related to a hit that drove Clowe into the boards head-first.
The hit, by Minnesotas Justin Falk, came in the second period of a 5-4 shootout win for the Wild on Jan. 10. The 6-foot-5, 217-pound defenseman got Clowe shoulder to shoulder in the corner behind the Minnesota net, knocking him off balance and into the boards.
There was no penalty called or supplemental discipline levied, and Clowe played the next two games.
Also out for San Jose was forward Andrew Desjardins, who missed his second game since taking a shoulder-to-head hit Saturday,...
