Monday’s games

Bobcats 79, Nets 68

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Gerald Wallace had 24 points and 20 rebounds and the Bobcats held the Nets without a point for more than 10 minutes in rallying for a victory. The Nets’ ineptitude allowed Charlotte to go on a 24-0 run bridging the third and fourth quarters, wiping out the Bobcats’ horrible offensive start. D.J. Augustin added 21 points in Raja Bell’s return from a wrist injury.

Knicks 117, Hornets 111

NEW YORK — David Lee scored a season-high 28 points, Al Harrington had 13 of his 24 in the fourth quarter, and the Knicks earned their first victory of the season. Chris Duhon finished with 18 points and nine assists for the Knicks (1-3). Chris Paul had season highs of 32 points and 13 assists for the Hornets, who were coming off a loss in Boston on Sunday night. Emeka Okafor added 24 points.
