NEW YORK, N.Y. - The Knicks are suddenly streaking.Carmelo Anthony scored 25 points and New York won its season-high third straight game with a 113-106 victory over the Orlando Magic on Friday night.Jason Smith added a season-best 19 points for the Knicks, who improved to 8-36. Lance Thomas had 16 points, and Langston Galloway 15; both are in the midst of their second 10-day contract.I thought they were resilient as a unit out there, coach Derek Fisher said. Just continued to find ways to stay together on both ends of the floor. We got some timely stops, which is always key in the fourth quarter. No matter what has happened prior to that in a close game, you have to be able to get stops in order to win and they did that tonight.The three-game streak had Anthony smiling after the game — a rare occurrence for the majority of the season.I think its just effort, energy, attention to details, Anthony said. I think the guys that have been helping us and contributing to these last couple of games, (those) guys are hungry. Theyre showing it, theyre playing like it. Theyre having a lot of fun. Were having a lot of fun out there now. I think that comes with putting forth the effort and the energy and being able to see results from there.Nikola Vucevic led the way for the Magic (15-31) with 34 points and 18 rebounds. Elfrid Payton finished with 11 assists.You give up 113 points, I dont care if youll be at the neighbourhood gym, youll have a hard time winning the game, coach Jacque Vaughn said.Orlando led 96-94 with 4:01 left after Tobias Harris completed a three-point play, but Galloway gave the Knicks the lead right back with a 3-pointer.The Magic reclaimed the advantage on Vucevics basket, making it 98-97 with 3:31 remaining. But Anthonys driving layup put New York back on top and the Knicks went on a 6-0 run that as capped by Thomas basket with 1:55 left.Paytons driving layup got the Magic close, making it a three-point game at 103-100 with 1:47 remaining. But the Knicks then went on a 9-2 run that sealed the victory.With the win, New York moved out of the NBA cellar. The distinction of the worst team in the league now belongs to the Minnesota Timberwolves (7-35).TIP-INSOrlando: Vucevic recorded his 26th double-double, which leads the NBA.New York: Anthony isnt downplaying the opportunity to start in the NBA All-Star game. I still get excited for these moments, he said. Its a blessing to be able to represent New York here. I never thought I would be in an All-Star game here in New York. I never thought New York would get it again. But for the fans that vote me in, I honour that, I truly appreciate that. Im (at a) loss words when it comes to that. Its definitely an honour and a blessing to be able to go out there and represent New York in the All-Star weekend. For me to be voted is a special feeling. ...

CALGARY -- Pierre Lavertu has an experienced, successful guide on the Calgary Stampeders offensive line. Brett Jones was fresh out of university at Calgarys training camp a year ago. The centre from Weyburn, Sask., went on to become the first offensive lineman to be named the Canadian Football Leagues most outstanding rookie. The Stampeders hope Lavertu is also a quick study. Calgary swung a draft-day deal with Ottawa to make the Laval athlete the first overall pick May 13. The 24-year-old from Quebec City played centre for the Rouge et Or, but with Jones so successful at that position in 2013, Lavertu has worked most of the pre-season at guard. Jones may be two years younger than Lavertu, but hes helping usher the older rookie into professional football. "Hes given me advice and helped me during meetings. He sits behind me," Lavertu said Tuesday at McMahon Stadium. "Brett is an inspiration for me because he did everything well. He has great technique, good footwork, he knows everything thats happening on the field." Jon Gott, who was dealt to the expansion Redblacks for the first pick in the draft, and the retired Dimitri Tsoumpas mentored Jones in his first year in the league, so Jones wants to pay it forward. "They just made sure I was welcomed into the group," Jones said. "Were known as a unit. I just want whats best for the offensive line." Lavertu, who is six foot three and 298 pounds, won three Vanier Cups and was a three-time CIS all-star with Laval. He was surprised Calgary drafted him because of Jones, but Lavertu is also excited at the prospect of blocking for star running back Jon Cornish.dddddddddddd "If they want me to play guard, Im going to play guard," Lavertu said. "Its the opportunity theyve given to me. Im going to take it and do the best I can to be successful at right guard. "We have Jon Cornish and a lot of good running backs. I love to run-block for him. When you run the ball like that and control the clock like that, you are going to win." Lavertu played right guard in the first half and returned to centre for the second when Jones came out of Saturdays pre-season win over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Calgary rushed for 193 yards in a 23-20 victory. The Stampeders are in Vancouver to face the Lions in another pre-season game Friday. Calgary hosts Montreal in their regular-season opener June 28. As Jones did, Lavertu must adapt to the quicker pace of the pro game as well the calibre of the oppositions defensive line. "Theres a lot more things hes responsible for and the talent hes going against every play is equal (to him) or better," Calgary offensive line coach Pat DelMonaco said. "You have to factor in some of them have five, six or seven years of experience." The six-foot-two, 321-pound Jones says Lavertu makes the same errors he did in his early days as a Stampeder. "I made a ton of mistakes," Jones said. "Youre going to make mistakes and its just not making the same mistake twice. "Hes doing great. This offence isnt that easy. You can just see hes making those changes and just making those improvements to get better. Whenever he gets a chance to play, Im excited to play beside him and hope the best for him."
