                                           Marv Albert, who proved he's
                                           still the premier NBA voice in
                                           calling the Lakers' one-point win
                                           at Phoenix on TNT Friday night,
                                           tells of a startling reaction
                                           during his one Celtics-Knicks
                                           broadcast for MSG radio.

                                           ``I never saw Rick Pitino so
                                           frustrated,'' he said. ``It was
                                           the game he had to pull Kenny
                                           Anderson and sit him down. Rick
                                           was one of the great college
                                           coaches, but it was strange to
                                           see him that way. He looked like
                                           he wanted to leave and didn't
                                           want to be associated with this
                                           team.'' <snip>
