New York edged Philadelphia

Nate Robinson's buzzer-beating 3-pointer lifted the New York Knicks over the Philadelphia 76ers 105-102 in overtime in the NBA on Saturday.

Stephon Marbury scored a season-high 33 points and rookie Channing Frye added 21 points and 11 rebounds for New York, which rallied from a 16-point deficit in the third quarter and then squandered a nine-point lead in the fourth.

Allen Iverson had 40 points and 10 assists, and Chris Webber scored 19 points for Philadelphia. Webber tipped in Iverson's miss with .6 seconds left to send the game into overtime.

Philadelphia, which trailed by six in overtime, tied it on Iverson's 3-pointer with 6.2 seconds remaining. The Knicks pushed the ball up the court and Robinson took a 23-foot jumper from the right side just before the buzzer, AP reports.
