	Entering the game against the New York Knicks, the Golden State Warriors looked to end their road trip on a winning note. Unfortunately, it was the Knicks who set numerous team and Arena records, as the Knicks defeated the Warriors 138-125 at Madison Square Garden. Chris Duhon set a franchise record with 22 assists, while the Knicks scored a Madison Square Garden record 82 points in the first half alone. Duhon broke a record set by Richie Guerin, who dished off 21 assists on December 21, 1958. David Lee scored a career-high 37 points and grabbed a season-high 22 rebounds, as the Warriors lost for the sixth consecutive game and finished the road trip with a record of 0-5. This was the first 30 point-20 rebound game by a Knicks player since Patrick Ewing score 36 points and grabbed 21 rebounds against the Philadelphia 76ers on January 23, 1994. Stephen Jackson did not play due to a sprained left wrist that he aggravated in Friday night’s loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers at the Quicken Loans Arena. Corey Maggette led the Warriors with 32 points and 12 rebounds, while C.J. Watson added 23 for the Warriors, who head home to face the Miami Heat on Monday night. In his first game versus his former team, Al Harrington scored 36 points and grabbed 12 rebounds, while former Knicks guard Jamal Crawford scored 21 in his first appearance back at Madison Square Garden.
