KANSAN.COM / THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN / TUESDAY, JANUARY 19, 2010 / SPORTS 3B NBA Scola leads team to win Rockets nab victory against Bucks 101-98 in overtime Monday ASSOCIATED PRESS HOUSTON — Luis Scola scored a season-high 27 points and grabbed 15 rebounds, Aaron Brooks dished out 10 assists to offset a bad shooting game and the Houston Rockets beat the Milwaukee Bucks 101-98 in overtime Monday. Carl Landry and Chase Budinger scored 12 points apiece for the Rockets, who have won the last 10 meetings with the Bucks in Houston. Brooks went 5 for 21 from the field, including 1 of 7 from 3-point range. Brandon Jennings scored 25 points and Andrew Bogut had 18 points and 17 rebounds for the Bucks, who return home after dropping five of six games on a 10-day road trip. Milwaukee trailed 79-73 after three quarters, but Bogut converted an alley-oop dunk and Luke Ridnour hit consecutive jumpers to tie it at 84. The teams were knotted at 89 when Brooks lost the ball on a drive and Ridnour finished a fast break with a layup with 1.38 left to put the Bucks in front. Scola's free throws with 1:04 remaining tied it again, and both teams turned it on over their next possessions. Jennings missed an off-balance 3-pointer at the buzzer to force overtime. Landry hit a jumper from the wing and converted a three-point play in the first minute of overtime for a 96-91 lead. He blocked Jennings on a drive and Scola swished a shot from the free-throw line for a seven-point lead. Carlos Delfino sank a 3 with 1:47 left to draw Milwaukee within four, and Bogut's tip-in with 33 seconds to go cut the deficit to 100-98. Brooks made one of two free throws with 9.2 seconds left for a three-point Houston lead, and Ridnour missed a 3-pointer from the corner at the buzzer. The Rockets shot 42 percent (36 of 86) and went 6 for 24 from 3-point range. Jennings had seven points and two assists in the first five minutes to help the Bucks build an 18-8 lead. Milwaukee hit 13 of its first 18 shots and led 34-27 after one quarter. Houston's bench sparked the Rockets' rally in the second quarter. Backup point guard Kyle Lowry's driving layup cut Milwaukee's lead to 41-34 and opened a 24-6 run. Budinger sank back-to-back 3-pointers and finished the spurt with a fast-break layup to put Houston ahead 56-47. The Bucks shot 8 of 22 in the second quarter (36 percent) and trailed 58-51 at the break. The Rockets handed out 17 assists in the first half, six by Brooks. Houston hit only six of 22 shots in the third quarter, but still led by six because the Bucks hit only nine of 22. Islanders on ice ASSOCIATED PRESS New York Islanders' Josh Bailey (12) scores a goal past New Jersey Devils goalie Martin Brodeur (39) during the second period of an NHL hockey game at Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, N.Y., Monday. The Islanders won 4-0. ASSOCIATED PRESS Ryan Palmer reacts after tapping in for a birdie on the 18th hole and winning the Sony Open golf tournament, Sunday, Jan. 17, 2010 in Honolulu. Palmer earns victory at Sony Open PGA ASSOCIATED PRESS HONOLULU — The surname alone gets Ryan Palmer some attention when he tells people he plays golf for a living. There are times when Palmer will play along and not bother to correct anyone who wonders if he is related to one of the biggest names in golf. For a brief moment Sunday in the Sony Open, he showed flashes of Arnold Palmer. First came the hard-charging chip, even if Palmer never meant to hit it that hard, which dramatically banged into the middle of the pin on the 18th green and settled inches away for a tap-in birdie. Then came the raw emotion, a smile he couldn't contain as he fell backward to the ground in a mixture of shock and relief. Moments later, when Robert Allenby failed to make a birdie putt from just inside 10 feet, Palmer had a one-shot victory and his immediate future looked as bright as the sun that shone down on the Waikiki shores all week. "Lucky bounce," said Palmer, who closed with a 4-under 66. "You need things like that to win." It wasn't entirely luck. Palmer and Allenby were tied over the final three holes at Waiata, and when Steve Stricker failed to make birdie from a bunker on the par-5 18th a few groups ahead of them, the Sony Open came down to who could birdie the final hole. Both were in the right rough, not unusual on a doggle left with the ocean breeze at their back. Palmer was counting on his ball to jump out of a good lie, yet his 5-iron came out soft and stopped 50 feet short in the fairway. Allenby had the same yardage as Saturday when he hit a 4-iron, this time he hit a 5-iron and it went even farther, over the green. From there, he played a lofted pitch to just inside 10 feet. When he hit his chip, Palmer expected the worst. far," Palmer said. "And I thought, 'Oh, gosh.' When I first hit, I could tell I just caught it thin enough where it was going to release a lot more. It bounced on the line and it went my way." "I knew it was going to land too Palmer was atop the leaderboard all four days, yet he showed up at Waialea acting as though he was starting from scratch. "I played each day for that day," he said. "I played Thursday for Thursday only. I wanted to win today." "What I got out of this is beyond words," Palmer said. "What I did today is probably one of the best rounds of golf I've ever experienced."
