NEW YORK -- The New York Knicks are preparing to buy out the contracts of veterans Metta World Peace and Beno Udrih. Neither player was available Saturday for the Knicks 107-98 loss in Atlanta. "Were going in a different direction and weve got to figure out another spot or two for our ballclub," coach Mike Woodson said before the game. World Peace wrote on his Twitter account earlier Saturday that his agent was working on a buyout and thanked fans and the city. Neither veteran has earned a place in Woodsons rotation in his first season in New York. Udrih has appeared in just 31 games, while World Peace, who had a procedure on his knee in January, has played in just 29. "I cant say anything went wrong," Woodson said. "Again, they werent in the rotations. Im not going to linger on it. I mean, were buying them out. As a coach, guys work for me, I wish them nothing but the best as they move on and were going to move on. So thats about the extent of it." Players have to be waived by March 1 if they hope to sign with another team and be eligible for the playoffs. World Peace is a New York native who played at St. Johns, and had long hoped for a homecoming. It didnt turn out to be a happy one with the Knicks, as his 7 minutes of playing time Friday in a double-overtime loss at Orlando was only the sixth game hed gotten into in 2014. All-Star Carmelo Anthony said he was surprised because World Peace seemed to be in good spirits a day earlier. "He was happy, He played," Anthony said. "On the bench, in the locker room, he was a different Metta. Maybe because he had the chance to get out there and play a little bit. But I wake up this morning and hear that he wanted a buyout, it took me by surprise." Udrih hasnt played since Jan. 24. There was speculation the point guard would be traded before Thursdays trade deadline. "Its sad to see them go. But look, this is the business of basketball, man," Anthony said. "For whatever reason, I dont know whats the reason that they wanted to get bought out. But it happened and weve got to move on from there." Dragan Bender Jersey . Simon (10-3) allowed three runs on five hits and three walks in 6 1-3 innings to break a tie with the Dodgers Zack Greinke and Cardinals Adam Wainwright for the NL lead in victories. Simon went to spring training as a relief pitcher and moved into the starting rotation when Mat Latos was recovering from elbow and knee surgeries. Josh Jackson Jersey . PAUL, Minn – The clock lingered for what seemed like an interminable two minutes and 51 seconds before Mark Fraser finally escaped to the bench during a wildly one-sided first period of an eventual loss to Boston. http://www.officialsunsfanstore.com/steve-nash-suns-jersey/. Jason Zucker and Matt Cooke also scored for Minnesota, which has won five of six. Kuemper made five saves in the first, nine in the second, and nine in the third. The rookies best save came with 2:17 left in the third period when he denied former Wild forward Matt Cullen from just outside of the crease on the right side. Deandre Ayton Jersey .com) - Marc Gasol and the Grizzlies withstood 18 Dallas 3-pointers, as Memphis took control in the third quarter and fended off a Mavericks rally en route to a 114-105 win in a Southwest Division showdown. George King Jersey . - Josh Sterk scored twice to lead the Oshawa Generals to a 7-1 rout of the Ottawa 67s in Mondays Ontario Hockey League action.The Vancouver Canucks didnt make the most of a five-game homestand, which ended with a pair of losses to beatable opponents. That leaves them with the tall task of correcting things Tuesday night as they begin a five-game trip in Nashville, where the Predators have posted the best home record in hockey to pace their league-best 60 points through the first half of their season. Catch all the action on TSN 1040 in Vancouver starting at 3pm pt. The Predators (28-9-4) have won five straight at home to build a 16-2-1 record at Bridgestone Arena, though it hasnt much mattered where theyve played lately. Theyre 6-0-2 since last losing in regulation Dec. 23 in Boston, and plenty of it has had to do with consistent offensive production with an average of 4.0 goals over an 11-game stretch. They didnt consider Saturdays 3-1 win in Minnesota one of their best efforts, but it was good enough to put them in a position to match a season-best four-game winning streak. Were going to have our off nights, but when we have those off nights we still find a way to win, said Colin Wilson, who had a goal and an assist to give him 13 points in his last 10 games. Thats why were at where were at. Mike Fisher also scored and has seven goals and five assists in his past 14 contests. Of course, having Pekka Rinne in goal most nights doesnt hurt, as was the case with a 36-save effort against the Wild. Its been a month since the Predators last lost in regulation with Rinne in the net, going 9-0-1 following a 2-0 loss in San Jose on Dec. 13. The All-Stars numbers havent been quite as sharp in that time with a 2.55 goals-against average after posting a 1.75 GAA in his first 26 games, but the offfense has provided plenty of support and helped ease the NHL wins leaders mind.dddddddddddd You feel happy, Rinne said of his demeanor as part of a team that has helped him to 28 wins. You come to the rink with a smile on your face, and it makes a huge difference. Rinne helped Nashville to a 3-1 win in Vancouver on Nov. 2, but hes 2-4-1 with a 3.56 GAA in his last nine starts in the series. Filip Forsberg had two goals and an assist while James Neal added two assists in that meeting, Nashvilles second win in the last seven matchups. This season, the Predators have gone 8-2-2 against the Pacific Division while the Canucks are 3-4-0 against the Central. Vancouver (23-14-3) will try to reach its own halfway point with a better offensive effort after concluding a 2-3-0 homestand with one goal in consecutive losses to Florida and Calgary. Saturdays 1-0 defeat to the Flames wasted a strong effort from Eddie Lack, who made 22 saves while Ryan Miller rested with flu-like symptoms. Its frustrating, said Henrik Sedin, who has 15 points in his last 11 against Nashville. We know how big every point is. To not get two from this game is disappointing, for sure. Miller will face the Predators and brings a 1.86 GAA over a 4-2-1 span. He didnt play in Novembers meeting, and is 4-0-0 with a 1.00 GAA lifetime in Nashville. One area Nashville has been lacking at home has been on the power play. The Predators are 5 for 61 (8.2 percent) there, while Vancouvers penalty kill is 47 for 50 (94.0) over the last 16 games. Neal has missed five games with a lower-body injury, but he practiced Monday. The left wing has five points on a four-game streak against Vancouver.
