08:10 AM ET 02.07 | The basic message from his head coach was to go easy on Jared Jeffries. Mike D'Antoni lectured the Garden fans for booing [Jeffries], saying they should "reexamine their life a little bit." Despite blowing some lay-ups Jeffries, who shot 3-of-9, had a rock-solid night in filling in as the starting power forward for an absent Amar'e Stoudemire. "Indulge me for a second, anybody who boos Jared Jeffries has got to reexamine their life a little bit," D'Antoni said following the Knicks' 99-88 winover the Jazz at the Garden. "I love our fans and I like Madison Square Garden, the arena, but here's a guy who came back to us, minimum contract. He could've gone to a lot of other teams. He plays as hard as anybody could possibly ever play."
