NBA roundup: Bulls win, clinch top spot in East

CLEVELAND -- Carlos Boozer scored 24 points and grabbed 11 rebounds to help the Chicago Bulls clinch the top seed in the Eastern Conference with a 93-82 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday night.

Chicago, which has won six straight and 18 of 20, will have home-court advantage in the first three rounds of the playoffs. The Bulls hadn't finished with the best record in the East since 1997-98.

New York 116, New Jersey 93: Carmelo Anthony scored 25 points and grabbed 14 rebounds as the visiting Knicks won their sixth straight to end a franchise-worst streak of nine straight losing seasons.

Indiana 114, Atlanta 102: Danny Granger scored 28 points for the host Pacers, who have won five of their past six and ended a nine-game losing streak against the Hawks.

Philadelphia 98, Toronto 93: The host 76ers, who already clinched their first playoff appearance in two years, snapped a three-game losing streak, and with 41 wins and two games left, they can finish with a winning record for the first time since 2004-05.

Miami 112, Charlotte 103: Chris Bosh scored 27 points and grabbed 10 rebounds and Dwyane Wade returned from injury to score 27 more for the host Heat.

Boston 104, Washington 88: Rajon Rondo scored 20 points and with 14 assists for the host Celtics. Pierce and Kevin Garnett also had double-doubles for Boston, which remains tied with Miami for the Eastern Conference's second spot.

NEW JERSEY: The NBA has fined the Nets $50,000 because hip-hop mogul and part-owner Jay-Z went into the Kentucky locker room after the Wildcats clinched a berth in the Final Four. League spokesman Tim Frank confirmed the fine Friday before the Nets played the New York Knicks at the Prudential Center. NBA rules prohibit team personnel from having contact with players who are not yet draft eligible.
