HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) _ Stephon Marbury scored 30 points and added 13 assists to lead the New Jersey Nets to a 106-103 overtime victory over the New York Knicks on Thursday night at the Hartford Civic Center. Keith Van Horn had 28 points and 12 rebounds for the Nets. Johnny Newman added 18 points, including four 3-pointers, while Kendall Gill had 13. Allan Houston led the Knicks with 22 points, and Kurt Thomas and Marcus Camby had 21 points each. Camby also had 14 rebounds. The Nets, who scored the game's first two points, did not lead again until 3:06 remained, when Marbury passed to Jason Feick for a layup. He was fouled, and the free throw gave the Nets a 96-94 lead. Houston tied the game at 97 by hitting one of two free throws with 43 seconds left in regulation. The Knicks' Latrell Sprewell turned the ball over with under 5 seconds to play, but Marbury missed a jumper with 4.3 seconds left, sending the game to overtime. The Nets, up 103-101, clinched the victory on a 3-pointer by Lucious Harris with just under 14 seconds remaining in overtime. The Knicks jumped out to a 13-point lead in the second quarter and led 57-49 at the half. They led by 10 points five times in the third quarter.
