Knick Coach Crying Foul Over Call

It appears that there are not many people that make Knick coach Larry Brown happy these days.

With 1.8 seconds left yesterday, Larry Brown was passionately arguing a decisive noncall with referee Joe DeRosa, who responded that it really didn't matter. Marko Jaric was on the free-throw line, about to seal a 98-94 victory for the Timberwolves, who avoided blowing the biggest lead (25 points in the third quarter) in franchise history.

"It doesn't matter to you," Brown said, almost choking up with the emotion of the loss and the near comeback. "You can just go home. But it matters to us."

Garnett: "I've Always Let Him Know That I'm Going To Be In 'Sota''

Every time a Stephon Marbury team plays the Wolves, talk of a reunion with Kevin Garnett is brought up by the media.

"I've never been opposed to a reunion," Garnett said on Sunday, "but I've always let him know that I'm going to be in 'Sota; he's always let me know that he's going to be in New York. So I guess we got a problem."

"Playing back with Kevin, that would be something that would be talked about forever," said Marbury, who has been booed whenever he has faced the Timberwolves at the Target Center since being traded.
