NEW YORK, Dec. 19 (UPI) -- Michael Redd led six players in double figures with 21 points Friday, carrying the Milwaukee Bucks to a 105-81 pounding of New York.

The Knicks shot only 38 percent from the field and suffered through a shooting lapse during the second quarter that left them in a 16-point hole at the break.

Richard Jefferson and Luc Mbah a Moute had 16 points each for Milwaukee, which has defeated New York in all three of their meetings this season. Tyronn Lue added 13.

New York, which has lost three in a row, got 21 points from Nate Robinson and 16 from Al Harrington.

The Knicks managed only two points over the final 5:30 of the second quarter and Milwaukee tacked on an 11-2 run in the third period to put the game out of reach.
