NEW YORK (AP) - In their first game after Marc Iavaroni was fired, the Memphis Grizzlies lost their eighth straight game, 108-88 to the New York Knicks last night. Assistant Johnny Davis is the interim coach although there are signs the Grizzlies want current Milwaukee assistant Lionel Hollins to return for a third stint as head coach of the Grizzlies.

CHICAGO (AP) - Toronto snapped its seven-game losing streak with a 114-94 win at Chicago, handing the Bulls their fourth straight loss. Jose Calderon had 23 points on 9-of-10 shooting and dished out 10 assists for the Raptors.

AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (AP) - Dirk Nowitzki scored 26 points, Josh Howard added 22 and the Dallas Mavericks rebounded from their worst performance of the season to rout the Detroit
Pistons 112-91. The Mavericks were coming off a 133-99 loss in Milwaukee on Wednesday night.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - The Kansas City Chiefs are going in a new direction after firing coach Herm Edwards following the worst two-year span in Chiefs' history. Edwards leaves with a three-year regular-season record of 15-and-33 and with one year remaining on his contract.

LA QUINTA, Calif. (AP) - Pat Perez shot a 5-under 67 to remain two shots in front at the Bob Hope Classic. Steve Stricker is two shots back after his 11-under 61 with Vaughn Taylor another shot back in third place.
