The Celtics must not have got the memo about the new and improved Knicks. Because if they did they would have brought their A-game to the garden instead of school yard ball.

The defending NBA champs had 14 turnovers in a 100-88 loss to the New York Knicks. The Knicks have not defeated the Celtics at MSG since March 23, 2005.

Wilson Chandler scored a career-high 31 points and the Knicks snapped an eight-game losing streak against the sputtering Celtics.

“It was the way they scored. It was frustrating watching it happen,” Celtics guard Ray Allen said. “It was disappointing because we couldn’t get a stop. They were scoring in ways that each time they scored it was somewhat letting the air out of the balloon, out of ourselves.”
