The Knicks used just seven players after making two trades earlier in the day. New York dealt Jamal Crawford to Golden State and Zach Randolph along with Mardy Collins to the Los Angeles Clippers.

Those deals left the Knicks without their top two scorers and none of the players for whom they traded -- including Al Harrington and Cuttino Mobley -- were available for action against the Bucks.

Milwaukee dominated the second half after owning only a one-point advantage through two periods. Ramon Sessions scored 15, Andrew Bogut 14 and Richard Jefferson 11.

The Bucks had dropped three in a row and six out of eight.

Chris Duhon scored 20 to lead New York, losers of three straight.
